Where to find Trade Authority locations in Starfield

The room is littered with things to loot Star field – which you can’t get all of. And if you want to take that stuff and flip it for a while quick profit, you need a place to sell to; Somewhere where you won’t be judged for your sticky fingers. Enter the unfeeling Trade Authority.

In this Star field guide, we tell you all about it Star field‘s Trade Authority and where to find Trade Authority locations (both their storefronts and kiosks).


What is the Trade Authority in Starfield?

Most sellers inside Star field only buy stuff from you that can be of use to them. If you go to a store where you can buy cool Star Wars space clothes, the person selling them to you won’t want to buy your space AK-47. I mean, what would they wear with it? Instead, you need to find a seller who has an interest in guns.

Since you pick up a wide variety of goods during your adventures, you literally waste hours trying to get around an entire city and visit the gun shop, then the spacesuit shop, then the clothing shop, etc. It’s tedious and there’s a better way: the Trade Authority.

These stores and their kiosks will buy anything and everything from your inventory. If you want to sell it a shotgun, a turkey sandwich, and “A Christmas Carol” by Charles Dickens, it will buy them all, as long as credits are available.

How much money does the Trade Authority have?

The Trade Authority kiosks sit relatively low 5,000 creditsbut his wallet is updated every 24 hours, so you can move to a new one or take a nap in your ship if you need to sell more stuff. The real Trade Authority stores, on the other hand, have a much bigger wallet, with almost 12,000 creditsand they have some pretty solid items that you can spend your credits on too.

What does the Trade Authority buy?

But the best thing about the Trade Authority is that they will buy your goods contraband And each stolen stuff you have. If you end up having to lift something at a high cost and don’t want to get caught, your lifeless kiosk friends or the dead within the Trade Authority staff will pay you, no questions asked.

You can find the Trade Authority Kiosks in every major spaceport and jetty station, near the Ship services worker or building. The shops are less convenient, but worth going if you have a lot of merchandise to unload; that extra credit boost goes a long way. Below we’ve listed the locations of five newsstands and stores, all of which will be easily accessible early this year. Star field.
