Rules for Selling Cryptocurrency
If you are a Noones seller, make sure to follow our basic rules when selling cryptocurrency to keep the marketplace safe and secure.
1. Accept your responsibility for possible risks.
2. Brokering gift card codes is strictly prohibited on Noones.
4. Maintain a civil tone with your trade partners.
5. Write clear offer terms and trade instructions.
6. Be aware of the minimum trade amount on our platform.
7. Do not use third parties for payments.
8. Off-escrow trades are not allowed.
1. Accept your responsibility for possible risks.
We at Noones do as much as possible to increase the level of security on our platform. However, you, as a seller, should accept all risks and liabilities that come with trading. It is up to you to protect yourself from malicious users and obvious scams. Check our security guide and safety tips for more information.
2. Brokering gift card codes is strictly prohibited on Noones.
Brokering is when you buy a gift card code from a third party and resell it later to someone else. This goes against the Noones Terms of Service and is strictly prohibited. This rule applies both to e-codes and physical gift cards.
3. Be responsive to buyers.
- If you are not at your computer, please deactivate all your offers. You can easily do it from your Dashboard. This will also help you avoid having your BTC locked in a trade escrow if a buyer starts a trade during your absence.
- When a buyer starts a trade with you, say “Hi” and let them know you are ready to trade.
Example: “Hi, I am ready, please follow the instructions and you can have your cryptocurrency in no time!“. This message may sound too simple and obvious. However, according to our statistics, a high number of canceled trades are due to an unresponsive seller. Please show to the buyer that you are ready.
4. Maintain a civil tone with your trade partners.
Offensive language and disrespectful tone are not allowed on our platform. Be understanding to buyers as some of them may lack trading experience. If you face any serious issue with your trade partner, do invite our moderators by starting a dispute.
5. Write clear offer terms and trade instructions.
- Have both offer terms and trade instructions in a simple short bulleted or numbered list. Read more on how to write good offer terms and trade instructions. This is relevant when creating your own offer.
- If you have special payment-related procedures that may delay the release of cryptocurrency for a longer period, make it clear for the buyer. This must be frankly stated in your offer terms and trade instructions. You must make sure that the buyer understands that the release of cryptocurrency may be reasonably delayed. Release time may not exceed the time stated in your terms. (Remember that Noones advertises p2p service as instant.)
- Write concise offer terms. The buyer sees offer terms before he starts the trade. It may contain important information about the trade.
Example: uploading a photo of ID, uploading a cash receipt, accepting physical gift cards only, etc.
Note that buyers avoid offers with complicated terms. Clear offer terms also give advantage in case of a dispute. Never leave this section blank while creating an offer. - Write clear trade instructions. Trade instructions are shown to a buyer once a trade starts. Instructions give additional guidance to your trade partner and should consist of clear steps.
- Provide your customers with helpful aids and examples if necessary. For example, if you require them to upload a selfie with a photo ID, then put an example picture.
6. Be aware of the minimum trade amount on our platform.
It’s important that you know what the minimum trade amount set on Noones. Currently, the minimum trade amount is 10 USD to buy cryptocurrency.
7. Do not use third parties for payments.
You are the person responsible for accepting and processing payments. If you have no control over the payment and you transfer responsibility to others, this can be considered as fraud. For example, in the case of bank transfer, you should be the account owner, in the case of altcoins, you should be the owner of the wallet, etc.
8. Off-escrow trades are not allowed.
It’s important that you do not give other users your contact information to do a trade outside Noones trade flow. Noones escrow must be used at all times or your account may be banned. By avoiding paying escrow fees to our platform while trading outside our escrow service, you expose your BTC to much higher risk as our investigation team will not be able to assist you in case of an argument.
9. Price negotiations are strongly forbidden.
A buyer of cryptocurrency must pay the exact price that is set for trade. If during a trade both sides agree to change the amount, a new trade must be re-opened for the correct amount. Price negotiations within the same trade are against our Terms of Service.
Check our guide on how to sell cryptocurrency on Noones to have an overview of our trade flow.
10. Do not use absurd margin rates.
Do not use absurd margin rates in fixed rate offers, otherwise your offers will be lowered in the Offers list below.
- If you are not at your computer, please deactivate all your offers. You can easily do it from your Dashboard. This will also help you avoid having your BTC locked in a trade escrow if a buyer starts a trade during your absence.

Selling Cryptocurrency for In-game Items
In addition to gift cards with a game balance, some games offer an option to gift in-game items such as resources, skins, weapons, etc. We are happy to offer you an opportunity to sell crypto for in-game items. Here’s everything you need to know about it.
Before trading
Before you start selling cryptocurrency for in-game items, make sure you have the means to check if the item was actually transferred to you. Whether you choose a game currency, boost, or skin, you must ensure you have the means to verify the transition of the item.
Warning:
- Buying accounts is prohibited.
- Don’t return the in-game item under any circumstances after you have received it.
- Don’t take the risk by transacting outside of Noones trade flow as it isn’t protected by Noones secure escrow.
Trading
Searching for an offer
The first step to selling cryptocurrency for game items is to look for an offer that accepts this type of payment. You can also specify the amount you wish to sell and the currency you prefer.
Choose the best rate of cryptocurrency to have the highest profit possible. Also, pay attention to the reputation of your potential trade partner. And finally, read through the offer terms and trade instructions carefully.
Talk to your trade partner in the trade chat. Clarify how exactly the in-game item will be delivered to you and decide whether you are okay with the product before proceeding.
Note: If after the trade has started you are being offered an item that is different from the advertised one, be extra cautious.
Creating an offer
To sell crypto for game items, you can also create your own offer.
Here are a few things to keep in mind:
- Set a margin you find profitable as no negotiations are allowed during the trade.
- Write clear offer terms and instructions.
- Use offer labels to highlight essential information such as the item type and the name of a game.
- Consider including FAQs section—think what questions trade partners may ask.
- If necessary, mention the following:
- the game server where the exchange should take place;
- will the delivery happen “face to face”, via game mail, or any other in-game exchange channel;
- required game character level, etc.
- Be clear about what proof of payment you expect from your trade partner, for example, screenshots of an in-game transaction.
Once you’ve created and published your personalized offer, wait for a buyer to start the trade with you. Once a trade has started, you will receive a notification. Feel free to discuss all the necessary details with your trade partner on the trade chat, and proceed accordingly.
Completing a trade
Once you’ve received the item and the buyer has marked the trade as “Paid”, you can release the cryptocurrency from the trade escrow. Click the Release button only if you are absolutely sure about receiving the payment. Remember that cryptocurrency transactions are final and irreversible.
After a trade
Once the trade is completed, you can leave appropriate feedback for your trade partner. Also, if you like trading with the user, you can add them to your trusted list.

Once the trade has begun, a more specific set of instructions should appear for the meetup. Usually, for cash trades, buyers should promise to provide a teller receipt. If at any point during the trade you feel confused about the instructions, feel free to send a message to the buyer via trade chat. They should be able to help you with any questions that you may have.

Safety Tips
Noones offers more than 400 payment methods to buy and sell cryptocurrency. Some of these payment methods require additional caution. As a seller, you should be aware of these specifics to increase the safety of your cryptocurrency and to have an overall pleasant experience on Noones.
Cash Payments
- Ensure that the buyer deposits cash in your name, and ask for the receipt.
- Make sure that you are trading with the actual person making the deposit. Avoid dealing with third parties in such situations.
Online Wallets
- Ensure that the buyer’s account is verified on the wallet service provider (i.e. verified PayPal account).
- Ask for the buyer’s ID. Make sure the user’s full name matches both their ID as well as their online wallet account.
- Ensure that you are trading with the owner of the account and that no third parties are involved.
- For extra precaution, you can ask the buyer to write on a piece of paper the confirmation of the purchase of cryptocurrency along with the trade ID, including the trade amount, and take a picture of it. In case of a chargeback, you can show this picture as evidence.
- Paypal specific tips:
- Ask for Selfie with ID and a note saying “I am making payment of x.xx to email address + real name.
- Make sure the person has sufficient balance in their account and they pay directly from their account. If they pay by card, a chargeback is much less likely to occur. Stick to low amounts and limit new buyers to one trade per day/week to limit chargeback risks.
- Accept payments only from verified PayPal accounts to ensure they have a bank account linked to it. This will help in case of chargebacks as PayPal will have information about such users.
- Make sure that payment comes as a single transaction from the Paypal account owner.
- Prefer payments as “Friends and Family”.
Debit/Credit Cards
- This method is just as risky as online wallets as you could easily be charged back. Use the same precautions as for online wallets.
Gift Cards
- To avoid gift card deactivation, ask for a receipt and make sure the gift card is bought with cash.
- Be aware of card resellers. If the card was obtained from third parties there is a risk of the card becoming invalid during or after the trade. Ask everyone to provide a picture with your username and trade ID.
- Be careful when accepting e-codes or gift cards bought with debit/credit cards as any debit/credit card purchase can be charged back.
