ZED Champions Marketplace
Last updated June 2, 2025
Buying a Horse In ZED Champions
To buy a horse:
- Go to the Marketplace from your dashboard
- Browse listings and check each horse’s bloodline, star rating, traits, and retirement status
- Make sure your ZED Champions wallet is funded with enough $ZED
- Click 'Buy' and follow the prompts to complete the purchase
- The horse will appear in your Stable.
If it’s a racing horse, it will enter the Racing Pool automatically.
If it’s retired or in the Breeding Pool, you’ll be able to list it in the Stud Marketplace. (If it has enough breeding slots - max is 10).
Important: If a horse is queued for retirement, any remaining $ZED balance will transfer to the player who retired the horse, not the buyer. Check for the orange retirement banner in the top-right of the listing before purchasing.
How To List A Horse for Sale in the Marketplace
You can list any horse for sale as long as it’s not currently in an active auction.
If your horse is in an auction, you’ll need to remove it before listing.
- If there are no bids, you can remove your horse from auction at any time, but doing so uses up one of its breeding slots. To avoid that, you’ll need to wait for the auction to expire before listing it elsewhere.
- If there is a bid, it must be outbid or the auction must settle before removal is possible.
Once removed, the horse can be listed in the Marketplace.
FAQs
I bought a horse with a $ZED balance showing, why didn't I receive it?
If the horse was already retired or queued for retirement before your purchase, any remaining $ZED is returned to the player who retired the horse after its final race. Balances don’t transfer with the horse after retirement.
How can I tell if a horse is retired before buying?
Horses queued for retirement show an orange flag on their listing in the Marketplace. Always check this before buying, especially if you’re looking at balance or racing potential.
Can I benefit from buying horses with high balances?
You can build a strong stable by choosing horses with solid bloodlines and race history, but balances from horses queued for retirement won’t carry over. Those funds go back to the player who retired the horse to prevent unintended gains.
