FAQ

Straight answers.

Everything people ask before and after they start. Including the uncomfortable parts.

Getting started

What is SnipeBid?

SnipeBid is a Chrome extension that adds a Buy Now sniper, a late-auction bidder, an auto-lister, live prices on every card, a pack sorter, an SBC solver and one-click FC Hub rewards to the EA SPORTS FC 27 Ultimate Team Web App. It runs inside the web app you already use.

How do I install it?

Add SnipeBid to Chrome on your desktop (step-by-step guide on the Install & update page at snipebid.app/download), then pin it to the toolbar. Open the Ultimate Team Web App, log in as usual and activate your license key in the SnipeBid panel. Click into Transfers once so SnipeBid can pick up your session. The status pill turns green and you are ready.

Which browsers and devices are supported?

Google Chrome on desktop (Windows, macOS or Linux). Other Chromium browsers such as Brave or Edge will likely work, but Chrome is what we test on. It does not run on phones or tablets, and the web app itself needs a desktop-size window.

Does it work for PlayStation, Xbox and PC players?

Yes. SnipeBid works with whichever platform your EA account trades on in the web app. Prices on cards follow the market of your platform.

Do I need to give SnipeBid my EA password?

No. SnipeBid never asks for, sees or stores your EA password. It runs inside your own logged-in web app session in your browser. You log in to EA yourself, exactly as you always do.

Billing

How does the free trial work?

Every new EA account gets a 3-day free trial with every feature unlocked. Cancel before the 3 days are up and you pay nothing. If you keep it, your plan renews at $14.99 per month until you cancel. One trial per EA account.

How much does SnipeBid cost?

SnipeBid Pro is $14.99 per month for one EA account, with every feature, live prices, updates and support. Each extra EA account is $7.49 per month.

Can I cancel anytime?

Yes. Cancel whenever you like and you keep access until the end of the period you already paid for. There is no lock-in and no cancellation fee.

Do you offer refunds?

The trial is free, so you can test everything first. If a renewal charge went through and SnipeBid did not work for you, ask us within 7 days and we will refund it. Details are in our refund policy.

Can I use one license on several EA accounts?

One license covers one EA account. Add extra EA accounts to the same license for $7.49 per month each. Sharing or reselling a license is not allowed.

Who handles my payment details?

Payments are processed by our payment provider. We never see or store your full card details.

Using SnipeBid

Does my PC need to stay on?

Yes. SnipeBid works inside the web app in your own Chrome, so the web app tab must stay open and your computer must stay awake while it runs. It is not a cloud bot: close the tab or let the PC sleep and it simply stops. Your settings and counters are saved, so you pick up where you left off.

How does the bidder protect my profit?

Every bid is capped so your minimum profit is still left after EA’s 5% tax. The bidder counter-bids when outbid and can make one final push up to that cap, then walks away. It never bids past your limit.

Does the SBC solver submit challenges for me?

No. The solver fills the challenge from your club (SBC storage and untradeables first, then your cheapest cards) and can buy missing players if you ask it to. Submitting always stays with you, in the web app.

Can the pack sorter quick sell my good cards?

Protected cards are never quick sold: valuable cards, cards rated 83 or higher, special cards and loans. Nothing is applied until you press Apply all (or turn on auto-apply), you can change any recommendation first, and Apply all asks for confirmation when it includes quick sells.

Where do the prices on cards come from?

From market price data, plus live prices reported anonymously by SnipeBid users while they trade. A live price is only used when several different accounts agree recently and it is close to the market price. Live prices are marked with a pulsing dot.

Will my settings survive a reinstall or a new PC?

Yes. Your settings, targets, filters and counters are saved to your license in the cloud and load automatically on any browser where you activate the same key.

How often is SnipeBid updated?

Updates are included in your plan. When EA changes the web app or adds new promos and challenges, we ship fixes and improvements. Filter options and SBC requirements are read live from the web app, so new content shows up by itself.

Safety & privacy

Can my EA account get banned?

Yes, it can happen. Automating the transfer market is against EA’s terms of service, and EA can restrict the transfer market or ban accounts. SnipeBid is built to be careful (human-like pacing, search and spend limits, breaks, cooldowns when EA pushes back), but no tool can promise zero risk. Use a secondary account, keep the pace on Safe or Normal, and don’t run it for hours on end.

What safety controls are there?

Three paces (Safe, Normal, Aggressive), hourly and daily search limits, a session spend limit, a minimum coin balance, regular human-like breaks, and automatic cooldowns when EA rate-limits or locks the market. If EA asks for verification, SnipeBid stops and lets you solve it by hand.

What data do you store?

Your email, your license key, an identifier of your linked EA account (not your password), usage counters and your SnipeBid settings. Market price reports are anonymous. We use no tracking scripts. Read the full privacy policy.

Is SnipeBid made by EA?

No. SnipeBid is an independent tool and is not affiliated with, endorsed or sponsored by Electronic Arts Inc.
