Rocket League offers a variety of items that players can trade with one another, ranging from blueprints to in-game credits. This trading system offers the opportunity to acquire new items and to exchange duplicates or undesired items. However, not all items in the game are tradable. In this article, we’ll address the key questions related to Rocket League’s trading system, covering what can and cannot be traded.
How to trade items in Rocket League?
Before initiating a trade, you must ensure that the ‘Allow Player-to-Player Trading’ setting is enabled. This is found in the Interface tab within the Settings menu. For children’s accounts, trading might be restricted due to parental controls. If you suspect your account to be a Cabined Account, you’ll need to consult your parent or guardian to modify your account permissions.
Note that trades can only occur within the same platform. That means, if you’ve built an item from a Blueprint using credits on Xbox, the trade should be with another Xbox player.
In addition, items purchased from the Item Shop and the Esports Shop are non-tradable. And to curb fraud, any player involved in trading must have purchased at least 500 Credits, Esports Tokens, or a Starter Pack. This condition doesn’t apply to those who’ve been playing prior to the Free to Play update.
Initiating a Trade: Step-by-Step
- Start Rocket League.
- Invite the player you wish to trade with to a party.
- Ensure that the ‘Allow Player-to-Player Trading’ setting is checked for both players.
- Click on the ‘Invite to Trade’ button.
- Choose the items or credits you wish to offer, and confirm what the other player is proposing.
- Click on ‘Accept’, review the offerings, and then press and hold ‘Accept’ again to finalize.
Trade Successfully: A Few Tips
- Trading can only occur when both parties are online.
- A trade gets processed once both players confirm. Should either player alter the trade, the confirmation is cancelled.
- Each player must confirm the trade for it to be executed.
- Players receive confirmation prompts indicating the items they’ve received.
- Be sure to scrutinize each item on the ‘Review Your Trade’ screen.
- Small batch trading can simplify tracking.
- Always exercise caution when trading to ensure fairness.
