Compare Vendors

How to Use the Vendor Comparison Tool

The comparison tool puts two or three vendors from our directory side by side using the same scores that appear on their individual review pages. Pick a vendor in each dropdown; the table shows the overall score and the four category scores — Delivery Speed, Customer Support, Pricing, and Trust & Security — and highlights the leader in each row where one vendor is clearly ahead. Tied rows are left unhighlighted rather than declaring a winner on a technicality.

What the Four Categories Mean

• Delivery Speed: how quickly orders are typically fulfilled, based on reported turnaround times. It matters most when you need currency or a service by a specific event or deadline.
• Customer Support: responsiveness and helpfulness reported by users, especially when something goes wrong. It matters most for large or account-sensitive orders.
• Pricing: how competitive rates are relative to comparable vendors for the same game. It matters most for frequent or high-volume buyers.
• Trust & Security: account-safety track record, payment security and any pattern of disputes. It matters most for anything involving your account login or a large payment.

Reading the Comparison Sensibly

Small gaps are noise. Our scores are editorial assessments built from public information, rounded to one decimal place. A difference of 0.1 or 0.2 is not a meaningful reason to choose one vendor over another; differences of half a point or more, especially in Trust & Security, deserve more weight.

Match the category to your order. A small currency purchase from a marketplace with buyer protection is a different risk from a boost that needs your account credentials. For the second, put Trust & Security first and support second; for a small, repeat gold order, price and delivery matter more.

Check coverage, not just scores. A high overall score does not mean a vendor serves your game. Open each vendor's review to see the games it covers, and read the game page for the vendors we list for that title.

Read the caveats. Scores compress a lot of information. The review page explains strengths, weaknesses and any caution flag; the comparison table cannot.

A Short Checklist Before You Order

• Confirm the vendor serves your exact game, region and server.
• Look at very recent reviews on independent platforms — a vendor's standing can change quickly.
• Prefer payment methods that offer dispute protection, and keep the order confirmation.
• Never share more account access than an order strictly needs, and use unique passwords with two-factor authentication where available.
• Read the game's terms on real-money trading so you understand what enforcement could mean for you. Our safety guides explain the risks in detail.

What the Tool Can't Do

It compares editorial scores — it does not check live prices, stock or delivery times, and it cannot tell you whether a vendor will deliver on a specific order. For the methodology behind the scores, see Our Review Process and our Editorial Policy.
