How does sniping work in FIFA Ultimate Team?

On the FIFA Ultimate Team transfer market, millions of players around the world offer their items for sale. Especially newcomers don't know how much their cards are worth. That's why they often sell them way too cheap. When sniping, these offers are tracked down and purchased via instant buy.

Once purchased, the player cards can often be resold for a large profit. All that is needed is a footballer to trade and the correct use of filters.

When sniping, the buy-it-now price must always be kept in mind.

This is how trading with Snipen works

The first thing to do is to find a card to trade. For beginners, cards with values of 1,000 coins or less are recommended. Players who already have experience with sniping can try their hand at more expensive items.

Once a footballer is found, the correct filter must now be used. The goal is to find the cheapest deals for the player's card and snatch it up via instant buy. The cheaper the card is, the better. To do this, the bid price and the buy-it-now price are set well below the market value. The bid price is now slowly increased in the price class filter until offers are found.

Now speed is required, because numerous players are also lying in wait and are constantly looking for favorable offers. It is important to act quickly and secure tickets via buy-it-now. If you succeed, you can sell them for the market value on the transfer market for a profit.

You can also get consumable items by sniping.

Tips for sniping in FIFA 19

It's always worth keeping an eye on the current Squad Building Challenges. Cards that are needed there usually increase in value and are good targets for sniping. You always have to factor in the market fee that EA SPORTS charges for each sale. This fee is five percent of the card's value. So it's hugely important that the profit made on the card should be well above the five percent mark.

The question is often asked: Is sniping legal in FIFA? The answer is yes! Sniping is not forbidden in principle. However, you should never buy too many cards at once. Some players who overdid it in the past and bought too many players at once were mistaken for bots by the system and received a ban on the transfer market.

Also, practice, practice, practice! Sniping requires speed . After a while, the procedures will become second nature and the successes will not be long in coming.
