How to Trade on PeerLoot (Buying and Selling as a Taker)

1 min read

Trading digital goods on PeerLoot is designed to be flexible, fair, and efficient. You can either use our powerful Express Form to get matched instantly or browse the entire marketplace to find the perfect trade.

Using the Express Form (The Easiest Way to Trade) #

The best place to start is the Express Form right on our homepage. This works whether you want to buy or sell.

  1. Fill Out the Form: Select whether you want to Buy or Sell. Then, enter the game and the specific item or amount of currency you want to trade.
  2. Choose Your Method: After entering the details, you have two powerful options:
    • Choose “Express”: This is the fastest way to complete a trade. Our system instantly analyzes all available listings and matches you with the best one (e.g., the cheapest seller if you’re buying, or the highest-paying buyer if you’re selling). It takes you directly to the product page to finalize the trade.
    • Choose “Browse Marketplace”: If you prefer to compare offers yourself, this option will take you to the marketplace with your search pre-filled. You can then browse all available “Sell Ads” and “Buy Ads” to find the one that best meets your needs.

What if no one is trading what I want?
If there are no matching ads for your request (e.g., no one is selling the item you want to buy), the form will prompt you to create your own listing ad. This posts your request to the marketplace for other users to act on.

Completing a Trade #

Whether you used the Express option or manually selected an ad, the final steps take place on the product page:

  1. Provide Delivery Information: Enter the necessary details for the other trader to complete the delivery, such as your in-game character name or user ID.
  2. Review the Order Summary:
    • The page will show the final order price in USD for clarity.
    • This total amount will be deducted from the buyer’s PeerLoot wallet balance and held securely in our escrow system.
    • Our Fair Fee Model: The fee structure is simple. The user who created the original listing ad (the “maker”) pays a small fee upon successful completion of the trade. The user who accepts or takes action on that ad (the “taker”) pays absolutely no fees. The price you see is what you get.
  3. Confirm the Trade: Click the “Confirm” button to lock in the trade.

Tracking Your Orders #

Once a trade is initiated, you can easily keep track of everything.

  • View all of your ongoing trades on your My Active Orders page peerloot.com/my-active-orders).
  • Review all your past transactions in your Order History page (peerloot.com/order-history).
