How to Trade in Path of Exile 2

Path of Exile 2 offers two primary ways to exchange items: direct in-game trading or utilizing the official trade website. Both methods are explained below.

In-Game Trading

If you share a game instance with another player, right-click their character and select "Trade." Both players then choose the items for exchange. Once both agree, confirm the trade to finalize the transaction.

Alternatively, you can coordinate trades via global chat or direct messages. Right-click a player's name in chat, invite them to your party, teleport to their location, and then right-click to initiate the trade.

The Path of Exile 2 Trade Market

Path of Exile 2 features an online auction-style marketplace 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 to locate desired goods. Once found, click the "Direct Whisper" button to send an in-game direct message (DM) to the seller. Arrange a meeting to complete the transaction.

Selling items requires a Premium Stash Tab, purchased from the in-game Microtransaction Shop. Place the item in the Premium Stash and set it to "Public." Right-clicking the item allows price setting, automatically listing it on the trade site. After a buyer contacts you via DM, arrange an in-game trade.
