How to Trade in Path of Exile 2
Path of Exile 2 offers two primary trading methods: direct player-to-player trades within the game, and utilizing the official trade website. Both are detailed below.
In-Game Trading
If you're in the same game instance as another player, right-click their character and select "Trade." Both players then select their trade items. Once both parties confirm, the exchange is complete.
Alternatively, use global chat or direct messages to arrange trades. Right-click a player's name in chat, invite them to your party, teleport to their location, and then initiate the trade via right-click.
The Path of Exile 2 Trade Market
Path of Exile 2's online market functions like an auction house, accessible only through the official trade website (link provided). A PoE account linked to your platform is required.
To purchase items, use the website's filters. Once you find a suitable item, click "Direct Whisper" to send an in-game direct message (DM) to the seller to arrange the transaction.
Selling requires a Premium Stash Tab (available in the in-game Microtransaction Shop). Place the item in the Premium Stash and set it to "Public." Right-clicking the item allows you to set the price; it's automatically listed on the trade site. After a buyer contacts you via DM, coordinate the in-game trade.
