The Marketplace is Kintara's player-to-player trading hub. Open it from the cart icon on the in-game HUD to list items for Gold or $KINS, browse other players' listings, and manage your active sales.

The Marketplace lets players turn surplus gear, resources, mounts, cosmetics, and real-estate keys into value. Most listings use in-game Gold; high-value or on-chain trades can be listed in $KINS instead. When a buyer purchases a $KINS listing, the seller receives 95% of the payment and 5% goes to the game treasury.
Click the cart icon on the in-game HUD (radar area) to open the window. It has three tabs — Sell (red), Buy (green), and My Listings — shown in the screenshot.
Sell
Use the red Sell tab to list items from your inventory.
- Select Sell.
- Read the prompt: "List items for gold or for $KINS. Choose a tradeable item below, then set amount and price."
- Pick a tradeable item from your inventory list (for example Wood, Stone, coal, weapons, potions, mounts, or property keys).
- Set the amount and price for the listing.
- Choose whether the listing is priced in Gold or $KINS.
- Confirm the listing.
While an item is listed, it is held in escrow and cannot be used until the listing is cancelled or sold. Each player can have up to 10 active listings at a time.
Buy
Use the green Buy tab to browse listings posted by other players.
- Select Buy.
- Browse available listings.
- Select the item you want and complete the purchase.
Buyers pay the listed price in Gold or $KINS, depending on how the seller listed it. Purchased items are delivered directly to the buyer.
My Listings
The My Listings tab shows every active sale you currently have on the Marketplace. Use it to:
- Check price and quantity on open listings
- Cancel a listing and return escrowed items to your inventory
- Track which items have sold
Listing types
| Listing type | Currency | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Gold listing | Gold | Standard in-game soft-currency sale. |
| Token listing | $KINS | On-chain payout; seller receives 95%, treasury takes 5%. |
What can be sold
Common Marketplace categories include:
- — wood, stone, coal, fish, and other gathered materials
- — weapons, potions, tools, and gear
- and
- Housing keys and real-estate listings (for example Mansion, House, Trailer, Flat, Apartment, and Penthouse)
Tips
- Bank valuables on the Mainland before listing high-tier gear you still use in the Wilderness.
- Check recent sale prices before undercutting — the community tracks high-value flips on social channels and tools like kintara.gold.
- Real-estate keys and rare mounts often trade for far more than their original release price in Gold.
