FUT trading bot for FC 27, in Chrome or on Android
A FUT trading bot buys Ultimate Team cards below their market price and sells them back for a profit after EA’s 5% tax, without you clicking through the transfer market. SnipeBid is a trading bot that runs inside the FC 27 Web App in Chrome (or in its Android app): it snipes Buy Now bargains, bids on auctions and relists what you buy, at a human-like pace. 36 h of bot trading free, no card needed.
What a FUT trading bot does
Trading in Ultimate Team is simple on paper: buy a card for less than it sells for, list it, and keep the difference after EA takes 5% of the sale. In practice it is hours of searching, refreshing and listing. A trading bot does that loop for you:
- Find listings priced under the market, or auctions about to end cheaply.
- Buy only when the price still leaves a profit after tax.
- Sell: list each card at a price that clears the tax, and relist what didn’t sell.
- Repeat, with pauses, limits and breaks so it doesn’t hammer EA’s servers.
The quality of a bot comes down to two things: how it decides what a card is worth, and how carefully it talks to EA.
How SnipeBid trades
SnipeBid is a Chrome extension for the FC 27 Web App. You log in to the Web App yourself, add targets (players, items or filters) and press Start. The Autopilot then works through your targets one at a time.
Sniping
The sniper searches for Buy Now listings at or under your Snipe % of the live market price and buys up to two per search. The max buy is rounded down to EA’s price steps and never goes above what leaves your minimum profit after tax.
Bidding
The auto bidder bids only on auctions ending soon (within 600 seconds by default), counter-bids when outbid, can make one final push up to its cap, then walks away. No bidding wars.
Listing and relisting
Everything the bot buys is listed at your sell price (100% of market by default). While it runs, it clears sold items and relists expired cards at the current market price. A card is never listed below what you paid after tax.
Smart % and auto margin
Instead of one fixed percentage for every card, Smart % sets a buy % per card inside your range (88–92% for sniping, 84–92% for bidding by default). It pays less for cards that are falling, swinging or selling slowly, a bit more for steady fast sellers, and shows the reason on each row. Auto margin (Settings › Margin: Auto, Profit or Volume) takes thinner flips when your coins sit idle and buys are rare, and keeps more per card when cards sell slowly. Neither ever plans a loss after tax.
More than buy-and-sell
- Filters: trade by criteria (quality, rarity, league, club, rating range, price range) instead of named players. Every listing is priced on its own, and a card without a known price is skipped, never guessed. See filters.
- Scout Autopilot: press Start and Scout runs your list, picking player cards and filters for your coins (Safer, Balanced or Bolder) and swapping out the ones that stop paying, at most 6 changes a day, each with Undo. It never touches the cards you added, and planning uses none of your EA searches. See Scout.
- Keep targets: buy a card for yourself instead of flipping it. One copy, up to a keep max price, never listed, sent to your club. The squad builder and evolutions use them to buy the players you want.
- Phone remote: check status, coins and today’s profit, start or stop, and get alerts on your phone at snipebid.app/account. Your phone talks to SnipeBid’s server, never to EA. See phone remote.
- Android app: the same panel and Autopilot inside the Web App on an Android phone, no PC needed. See SnipeBid for Android.
The same panel also has an SBC solver, a pack sorter and live prices on every card.
Pacing: how SnipeBid talks to EA
Every request SnipeBid sends (searches, buys, bids, listings) goes through one queue, one at a time, with random gaps. You pick a pace in Settings › Safety:
- Safe: 7–14 s between searches, at most 10 requests a minute.
- Normal (default): 4.5–9 s between searches, at most 15 a minute.
- Aggressive: 3–6 s, at most 22 a minute.
On top of that: a Safe-pace warm-up after every start, short and long breaks at irregular times, hourly and daily search caps (600 and 2,500 by default), and spend limits. When EA pushes back with a rate limit or a market lock, SnipeBid stops sending anything until a cooldown ends; three blocks in two hours and it rests until tomorrow. Unusual EA errors trigger a 10-minute safety pause, and a second one within an hour stops the bot. If EA shows a verification check, SnipeBid stops and never tries to solve it. Full details: safety and limits.
Who a trading bot suits
- Players who want coins for their squad but don’t have hours a day for the market.
- Traders who already flip by hand and want the searching and relisting done for them, with their own limits.
- Anyone happy to take EA’s account risk on a secondary account.
It suits you less if you want a cloud service: SnipeBid runs in your own Chrome tab (or on your Android phone), so the device has to stay on while it trades. And a small coin balance limits what any bot can earn; Scout says so when the best flips are only worth a few hundred coins.
Getting started

After the trial, SnipeBid is $14.99 a month, with longer plans on the pricing page.
Frequently asked questions
What is the difference between a sniping bot and a trading bot?
A sniping bot only buys Buy Now listings under a price. A trading bot covers the whole loop: sniping, bidding on auctions, listing, relisting and clearing sold items. SnipeBid does all of them, in Snipe, Bid or Both mode.
Does a FUT trading bot guarantee profit?
No. Prices move, other buyers are faster, and cards can drop after you buy them. SnipeBid caps every buy and bid so your minimum profit survives EA’s 5% tax at today’s price, but it can’t promise the price holds until the card sells.
Can EA ban my account for using a trading bot?
Yes, it can happen. Automating the transfer market is against EA’s terms, and EA can restrict the market or ban accounts. SnipeBid paces itself and backs off when EA pushes back, but no tool can promise zero risk. Use a secondary account. See safety and limits.
Does my computer need to stay on?
Yes. SnipeBid is not a cloud bot: it runs in the Web App tab in your own Chrome, so the tab stays open and the PC stays awake. The Android app runs on your phone instead, in the background.
Do I need to give the bot my EA password?
No. You log in to the Web App yourself and SnipeBid works inside that session. It never asks for, sees or stores your EA password.
