Understand the Main Risks
Sandbox Interactive's terms prohibit selling or purchasing virtual currency within or outside the game except through in-game systems, and the studio's pages state that trading any in-game currency for real money is strictly prohibited. A studio support reply has said such activity results in a permanent ban without the possibility of a new account, applies equally to buyer and seller, and can be enforced during ban waves. A forum announcement reported 2,046 accounts banned in one wave. See our Albion buyer's guide.
How to Vet an Albion Silver Seller
Confirm your server and platform. Look for a seller with a record in Albion, recent independent reviews and clear refund terms. Our Albion vendor list shows category scores.
Safer Delivery Practices
Provide only your character name. Never share your login or remote access. Be cautious of any delivery involving very large silver transfers with no comparable in-game source, which moderators have described as what draws scrutiny. Keep records.
Protect Your Payment Information
Use a method with dispute rights and keep records. Do not dispute a payment after delivery.
Red Flags to Avoid
Prices far below what other reputable sellers charge for the same amount; guarantees of no bans; requests for your login; unsolicited chat offers; and look-alike domains.
Step-by-Step Order Checklist
If you have weighed the rules and decided to go ahead, work through these steps in order. They reduce the avoidable risks; they do not make an order compliant with the game's terms.
- Consider buying gold and using the in-game Gold Market; it is the sanctioned route.
- Note that new accounts face daily Gold Market limits until verified as trusted.
- For third-party silver, confirm your server and read the vendor's review.
- Avoid very large silver transfers with no comparable in-game source.
- Pay with a method that allows disputes and never share your login.
- Keep records of the order and the delivery.
What to Do After Delivery
Confirm the amount and keep the records. Understand that a ban affects the entire account, including gear, silver and gold, and that enforcement can lag the transaction.
Lower-Risk Alternatives
Buy gold and trade it for silver on the in-game Gold Market; new accounts face daily limits until verified as trusted. Or earn silver by gathering, refining and crafting. See our Albion silver farming guide and leveling guide.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is the Gold Market allowed?
Yes; the terms make in-game systems an exception to the ban on outside transactions.
Is moving silver between my own accounts a violation?
Moderators have said legitimately earned silver moved between your accounts is not the issue, but very large unexplained amounts are.
Can I make a new account after a ban?
The studio says no.
