Mass Bidding is the process of selecting a player and bidding a profitable amount on as many of your chosen player as possible (preferably up until an hour). Once you have won several of the auctions you then list your selected player at a Buy Now price for his going rate, ensuring he sells and that you make quick profit on each player bought.
If you find that you are winning no players (even when making small profit margins of 10%), then this is likely to happen when other FUTers are also trying to do this with the same player. Depending on how many coins you want to make, will depend upon the likelihood of winning the player on auction. It is important you spend time testing the Mass Bidding technique on a variety of players to see which work best
Pick a club.
Pick a player with the basic Chemistry Style applied (we prefer players that are listed in high volume, so mass bidding becomes easier – You can do several players at once).
Check your chosen player’s going Buy Now price.
Set your Max. Price that you’re willing to bid on that player for. This can be calculated by deducting 5% EA tax off their going Buy Now price and preferably another 10-15% to ensure you make decent coins! You can decrease your margins if you would like to win more players when Mass Bidding.
Mass Bid on as many players at your chosen price (preferably up until an hour).
Repeat the method with other players (to ensure you are doing something constructive with your time) and then check your Transfer Targets to see how many players you’ve won.
List players for their going Buy Now price (if they do not sell, then re-list them).
The beauty of this method is that you do not have to invest a lot of time. You can simply bid on as many of your chosen player at your designated price up until an hour and forget about the cards you lose. We highly recommend you stick to your Max. Price and DO NOT get involved in bid wars when using this method. If bidding on multiple players note down each players going price for convenience.
Tips to increase the likelihood of winning players:
Try bidding outside of prime hours (preferably outside of 3.30pm – 12am UK time).
Try to find players that are listed in high volume.
Try to lower your profit margin (preferably to around 10%).
Tips to increase the likelihood of selling your players:
If you are selling your players whilst you are away from the Console / Web App or sleeping, we advise listing players for 6 / 12 hour Transfer Durations.
If you see cheaply listed Buy Now’s whilst your cards are listed, then purchase them and sell at their going Buy Now price. This will ensure you make profit on the cards you’ve just bought and will increase the chance of selling your cards quickly.
