Frequently asked questions

Aluma is an independent, player-run service for trading WoW Forever gold and accounts. We are not affiliated with Blizzard Entertainment or the operator of WoW Forever.

A direct chat is the fastest way to agree on details, share screenshots and confirm each step of a trade. If you prefer email, that works too — replies are just a little slower.

No. There are no user accounts here. Message us on Discord or by email and we handle everything in that conversation.

Most game operators prohibit real-money trading in their terms of service and may take action against accounts involved in it. Please read the game's rules before you trade with anyone. Our disclaimer explains this in more detail.

Rates follow demand on each server and faction, so they change over time. The rate table always shows when it was last updated, and we confirm the exact rate in writing before you deliver anything.

As soon as we have checked that the gold arrived. You don't wait for a marketplace to release funds or confirm an order.

Small amounts are welcome, but very small trades can be eaten up by payout fees. Tell us what you have and we'll say right away whether it makes sense.

We agree on the method in chat before the trade — usually in-game mail or a face-to-face trade with one of our characters. We'll give you the exact character name to use.

Message us with your region, server type, faction, character name and the amount you need. We reply with a price and a delivery estimate, and you only pay once you're happy with both.

By in-game mail or a face-to-face trade, whichever you prefer. Double-check your character name and faction in the chat — it avoids most delays.

It depends on the stock we have for your server at that moment. We tell you the expected time before you pay and keep you updated in the chat.

Level, class, race, faction and server, plus gear, professions, mounts and anything rare on the character. Screenshots or a gear list help us give a fair offer faster.

Level and gear count most, followed by professions, mounts, reputation, attunements and gold on the account. A well-documented account also gets a quicker answer.

Never. Forms on this site don't ask for passwords, authentication codes or payment details, and they don't send anything to a server. If we agree on a deal, we explain the handover step by step in chat.

Once the handover is complete and verified, through the payout method we agreed on in chat.

Every listing shows a status: available, reserved or sold. Send us the listing ID and we confirm availability before you pay.

Full access to the account, including the linked email where it applies, so you can change every credential straight away. We walk you through securing it in chat.

Often, yes. Tell us the class, faction, server and budget you have in mind and we'll check what we can source.

Contact us right away in the same chat. Our refund policy explains what is covered and how we handle each case.

Your first trade is a small test so both sides can check the process. After that, we agree on regular amounts based on what you can deliver each week.

Right after we verify each delivery. For larger volumes we can split a trade into parts and pay after each one.

Usually in USDT via Binance. Other methods can be discussed in chat.

We compare what both sides can see — mail logs, trade windows and screenshots — and settle it in chat. Starting small is exactly what keeps disagreements rare and cheap.

We keep only what we need to trade with you, such as your Discord name and payout details, and we never sell or share them. Our privacy policy has the full picture.

Payouts to sellers are usually sent in USDT via Binance, and other methods can be arranged on request. Buyers can see the options we accept on the How it works page; we confirm them in chat before every trade.

The amount we confirm in chat is the amount that applies. If your payment or payout method charges its own network or service fee, we tell you before the trade.
