Frequently Asked Questions About Rainbow Six Siege Trading

The timeline varies based on account value and verification requirements. For accounts under $50, the typical process takes 12-24 hours from purchase to credential transfer. This includes the initial payment processing (1-3 hours), seller notification and preparation (2-8 hours), credential transfer, and buyer verification period (6-12 hours). Accounts valued between $51-$150 require additional verification steps and typically complete within 24-36 hours. Premium accounts above $150 involve identity verification, video walkthroughs of inventory, and extended escrow periods, taking 36-72 hours to fully complete. Weekend transactions may experience delays as some verification steps require manual review by our team. Rush processing is available for an additional 15% fee, reducing timelines by approximately 40% for eligible transactions under $200.

Our escrow system protects buyers in these situations. Upon receiving credentials, you have a verification window (12-48 hours depending on account value) to confirm all listed items, operators, and cosmetics are present. If you discover discrepancies, immediately open a dispute through your transaction dashboard before the escrow period expires. Provide screenshots showing the missing items compared to original listing images. Our verification team reviews disputes within 24-72 hours, comparing your evidence against the seller's original submission. If we confirm material differences (missing operators, significantly fewer cosmetics than listed, or rank history misrepresentation), you receive a full refund including any transaction fees. Minor discrepancies (1-2 common items missing from large inventories) may result in partial refunds of 10-25%. In 2023, 71% of disputes were resolved in favor of buyers with full refunds issued.

No, our marketplace prohibits listings for banned, suspended, or restricted accounts. All accounts must be in good standing with active access to online multiplayer functions at the time of listing. This policy exists because banned accounts have no functional value to buyers and listing them constitutes fraud. Temporary suspensions for connectivity issues or minor infractions that expire within 48 hours may be listed with full disclosure in the description, typically resulting in 40-60% price reductions. Permanent bans for cheating, toxic behavior, or Terms of Service violations make accounts unsellable. If you list an account and it becomes banned before transfer completes, you must immediately notify the buyer and cancel the transaction. Attempting to sell banned accounts results in permanent seller account termination and forfeiture of any funds in escrow. Buyers who receive banned accounts after transfer can file disputes for full refunds regardless of when the ban occurred, provided it's reported within 14 days of purchase.

We use a combination of historical sales data, rarity metrics, and community demand indicators to establish baseline values for discontinued items. Black Ice weapon skins, the most sought-after cosmetic family, add $3-$8 per weapon depending on popularity (assault rifles and SMGs command premium values). Complete Black Ice collections covering 15+ weapons can add $100-$150 to account value. Pro League sets from 2016-2018 (Gold sets, various team bundles) add $30-$75 per complete operator set, while newer Pro League items (2019-present) add $10-$25 as they were more widely available. Elite skins, which cost 1,800 R6 Credits ($15) when available, retain approximately 60-70% of that value in account sales, or $9-$11 each. Limited event items from modes like Outbreak (2018), Rainbow is Magic (2019), or Showdown (2019) add $15-$40 depending on completeness of the collection. Championship or Invitational items vary widely, with 2021 Championship sets adding $50-$80 due to their visual appeal and limited availability window. Sellers should itemize rare cosmetics in listings with screenshots to receive appropriate valuations.

We accept PayPal, major credit cards (Visa, MasterCard, American Express), cryptocurrency (Bitcoin, Ethereum, USDT), and direct bank transfers for transactions over $300. PayPal and credit card payments process immediately, with funds entering escrow within minutes. Cryptocurrency payments require 2-6 blockchain confirmations depending on the currency, taking 20 minutes to 2 hours. For sellers, fund release timing depends on the escrow period and transaction value. Standard transactions under $50 release funds 12-24 hours after buyer confirms receipt and verification. Accounts valued at $51-$150 release after 24-36 hours, while premium accounts over $150 hold funds for 48-72 hours. Once released from escrow, PayPal transfers arrive within 1-3 business days, cryptocurrency within 24 hours, and bank transfers within 3-5 business days. Sellers with 10+ successful transactions and zero disputes qualify for our Trusted Seller program, which reduces escrow periods by 30% and provides priority payment processing. We charge a 12% marketplace fee on successful sales, deducted from the final payout amount.

Account recovery by original owners represents the primary risk in secondary market transactions, though proper transfer procedures significantly minimize this risk. When executed correctly, account transfers involve changing all associated credentials: email address, password, security questions, and enabling two-factor authentication with the buyer's phone number. Ubisoft's account recovery process requires access to the registered email or extensive proof of original ownership including purchase receipts, previous passwords, and account creation details. If sellers complete full credential transfers and don't retain this information, recovery becomes extremely difficult. Our marketplace requires sellers to confirm they've removed all personal information and won't attempt recovery, with violations resulting in permanent bans and potential legal action for fraud. Statistics from our platform show that properly transferred accounts experience recovery attempts in less than 1.2% of cases, and most of these occur within the first 30 days. Buyers should immediately change all credentials upon receipt and avoid sharing account details. Purchasing from Trusted Sellers (those with 15+ successful sales and verified identities) reduces recovery risk to approximately 0.3% based on our historical data. While we cannot eliminate all risk, following proper procedures makes successful recovery extremely unlikely.
