FC 27 trading Chrome extension: install, requirements and privacy

Install in about a minute

1. Open SnipeBid in the Chrome Web Store and click Add to Chrome, then Add extension.
2. Pin it: click the puzzle icon in Chrome’s toolbar and pin SnipeBid.
3. Open the Ultimate Team Web App and log in as usual.
4. Paste your license key into the SnipeBid panel and press Activate. No key yet? Start the free trial with just your email; the key arrives within a couple of minutes.
5. Open Transfers once so SnipeBid can see your session. The status pill turns green and you’re ready.

Can’t use the store? A manual install from a zip file is described on the install page, along with fixes for common problems.

What runs where

Everything happens in the Web App tab of your own Chrome. The extension’s scripts only load on the Ultimate Team Web App page on ea.com, and the SnipeBid panel sits inside it. Searches, buys, bids and listings are sent from that tab, inside the session you logged in to, one at a time and at a human-like pace.

SnipeBid’s own server handles your license, your saved settings, targets and filters, and the price data. It never logs in to EA for you. That’s also why it isn’t a cloud bot: close the tab or let the computer sleep, and SnipeBid stops. Your settings and counters are saved, so you pick up where you left off.

What the panel can do: snipe Buy Now bargains, bid late on auctions, relist at today’s price, run filters, let Scout Autopilot run your list, solve SBCs from your club, sort packs and build squads. The trading bot overview explains how they fit together.

Requirements

• Desktop Chrome: Google Chrome 109 or newer (111+ recommended) on Windows, macOS or Linux. Other Chromium browsers such as Brave or Edge will likely work, but Chrome is what we test on.
• An EA account that can use the FC 27 Web App. PlayStation, Xbox and PC accounts all work; prices follow your platform.
• A SnipeBid license: a free trial with 36 h of bot trading and every feature, no card needed, then $14.99 a month or a longer plan on the pricing page. One license covers one EA account; extra accounts are an add-on.
• A computer that stays on with the Web App tab open while the bot runs.

Not supported: iPhone, iPad, consoles themselves and the EA companion app.

Control it from your phone

The extension runs on your PC, but you can watch and steer it from anywhere with the phone remote at snipebid.app/account. Link a phone by scanning a QR code in Settings › Phone remote, no password needed. The phone shows status, coins and today’s profit, starts and stops the bot, changes targets (if you allow it) and sends alerts for sales, pauses and stops. Your phone never talks to EA: it talks to SnipeBid’s server, and the extension picks up your commands a few seconds later.

Privacy and permissions

• No EA password. You log in to EA yourself. SnipeBid works inside that session and never asks for, sees or stores your EA password.
• Narrow permissions. Besides its own storage, the extension asks for access to ea.com and to SnipeBid’s API, nothing else.
• What SnipeBid stores: your email, license key, an identifier of your linked EA account (never your password), usage counters and your settings. Your trades are sent to your private account page so you can see your profit.
• Anonymous reports. Price readings are anonymous. Error reports are cleaned of coin amounts, card ids, emails, keys and EA account names, and can be switched off in Settings › Safety.

The full list is in the privacy policy.

Updates

Installed from the Chrome Web Store, SnipeBid updates itself; there is nothing to do. A Web App tab that was already open keeps the old copy until you press Reload page in the panel. A manual install shows an update banner instead. When EA changes the Web App, a feature that depends on the changed part pauses itself until an update fixes it, rather than misbehaving.
