Buy from a trade hub and collect goods
In this guide · Economy
Trade hubs bring together the market for a sector. Each is located at the frontier outpost in its capital. To find one, open Trade Hubs from the menu and choose a sector.
The market lets you trade resources and star maps. Resource prices are shown per 100 units. Check the total price for your requested quantity and any minimum purchase. An offer that is still in transit is not ready to buy.
Step by step
- Open the hub and go to Market.
- Select an offer and the quantity you want to buy.
- Review the price, trading fee and destination of the goods.
- Decide whether to pay for delivery or leave the purchase at the hub bank.
- Confirm the order and check its status.

Without delivery, the resources stay in your trade hub bank. Open Bank and arrange a valid transport to take them to a planet. A purchase does not add its goods to your colony automatically.

Bank capacity is shared between resources and incoming reservations. Check the available space before building up your purchases.
