Our Star Citizen section allows you to sell your virtual Star Citizen assets including Space Ships, Vehicles, Gear, and Decoration Items for the online Science Fiction game Star Citizen developed by Roberts Space Industries (RSI) & Cloud Imperium Games (CIG). Virtual items purchased at Star Hangar are exclusive limited-use licenses and may be sold in agreement with RSI’s Terms of Service. No physical shipment is required.
Our Account Market section allows you to sell your excess game accounts to interested players, ranging from classic Role Playing Games to the latest Science Fiction Epos. Note that there are no limitations as to what game accounts you may offer for sale.
As a sale requirement, you only need to be both the legal owner and the account creator. Sale of 2nd hand accounts is allowed, but only if you have adequate proof of purchase with a notarized contract and all previous owners co-sign your own notarized sale contract.
Our Starbase section allows you to sell your own created Starbase Blueprints for the one MMO Starbase developed by Frozenbyte. Blueprints purchased at Star Hangar are player-created content stored in local files that allows the creation of complex products in-game, as by the seller's design. You are entitled to use them in unlimited ways in-game, except for re-distribution or commercial resale. Products created from blueprints are subject to Frozenbyte's Terms of Service. No physical shipment is required.
For selling gaming content other than Star Citizen/Starbase items or game accounts, please contact our sales support.
Can I sell physical items?
Please contact our sales support with information on what you'd like to sell on our webpage and we'll gladly support you!
Physical sale is possible within limitations, a more enhanced support for all kinds of (gaming-related) physical merchandise is planned, but currently not on our short-term roadmap due to (as of yet) low seller demand. Future changes may be considered.
What Items may I sell for the online game Star Citizen?
You can sell this content:
- Gift-able items in your Hangar
To verify if an item is giftable please click the small '>' button next to each item for details. The item details will unfold and if a 'Gift' button is displayed, your item is transferable and hence sellable. - RSI Store Credits
Account-bound items you own can often be exchanged for RSI store credits, which can then be 'converted' to be sellable using the following method: Buy a new Aurora ES with Paypal Cash or Credit Card. This Aurora ES can then be upgraded to e.g. a Constellation Taurus or Andromeda. The resulting upgraded ship is then transferable and can be sold like other Gift-able items. - Items from your Buyback List
Items in your buyback list can be sold safely & easily: you don't need to buy them upfront, rather you can list them in-store and only buy them for transfer once a buyer and your payment are secured. After purchase, you can then deliver your item normally
Note that Star Citizen game accounts may not (!) be sold in the Star Citizen category but as Account Sales on our Account Market only.
If in doubt, it is best to contact our sales support in our live chat for details.

Fees & Payment
What fees do I have to expect?
Fees apply exclusively for a successful sale of items only, Star-Hangar has no fees for listing items or any other services.
The standard consignment fee for selling items on consignment is 14% and COVERS ALL FEES ON STAR HANGAR's SIDE, including Escrow service fees for transfers between Buyers and Star-Hangar.
NOTE that additionally, YOUR PAYMENT PROVIDER MAY APPLY FEES FOR RECEIVING FUNDS. Charges depend on your personal payment provider and your account's agreement with them. PayPal fees typically range from 2.9% for US Customers to approx. 4.7% for EU customers, whereas Payoneer and custom Credit Card payment solutions tend to have slightly lower charges.
How do I correctly calculate how much I'll get for my sale?
assuming you plan on cashing out after selling an item, you can use these formulas for your price calculation:
- Net Cashout after all fees = Store Price * (1 - consignment fee) * (1 - your Payment Provider fee)
so e.g. if you sell an item for $100 the cashout for a typical US customer would receive = 100 * (1 - 0.14) * (1 - 0.029)
and to reverse that formula: - Store price = desired Net Cashout / (1 - consignment fee) / (1 - your Payment Provider fee)
so e.g. to receive $100 net after all fees, a typical US-based seller would have to set the price to = 100 / (1 - 0.14) / (1 - 0.0029)
Can I get paid via PayPal?
Yes, by default all our payments to sellers are transferred via PayPal.
As an alternative, we support seller payment via Payoneer.
We can further pay you via your credit card payment solution, either using a payment provider like Stripe or using a personal credit card chargeable via a credit card payment portal.
When will I get paid?
About 48 hours after successful delivery, your payment will be credited to your Star Hangar wallet. You can then request cash-out in your account's Store Credit & Refund menu.
Cashout requests are always completed within 24 hours.
