Trading with players

Use /trade <player> for an exchange where both players need to see the items and coins before agreeing. You can trade from any world and any distance. For a gift or a one-way payment, use /pay instead.

Start a trade

1. Run /trade <player>. The request expires after 30 seconds.
2. The other player uses /tradeaccept to open the window, or /tradedeny to decline.
3. Each player places items in their own offer slots and can add coins. Each side has up to 16 item stacks in the offer.
4. Review both sides, then each player presses Accept. Any change to an offer clears both acceptances, so both players must review it again.

After both accept, the trade completes five seconds later, as long as neither offer changes. The items and coins then change hands right away. A completed trade is final, so check both offers before you accept. If something looks wrong, tell staff through /helpop.

Closing an unconfirmed trade or using /tradecancel cancels it and returns the offers. Once the trade completes, /tradecancel can't reverse it.

Coins as an item

/tradecash <amount> takes coins from your balance and gives you a redeemable cash paper. You can hand it to someone through the trade window or leave it as a prize. Treat the paper like any valuable item: whoever holds and redeems it receives the coins.

Commands

/pay sends coins immediately and cannot be reversed by the sender. Check the name and amount before using it, especially for a large payment.
