TRADE CAPITALISM
Start small. Build a business story of your own.
Trade Capitalism is an economy and management game where you establish a company and grow it through your trading decisions. Start with a produce shop, move into manufacturing, take on transport jobs or bring several investments together under one company. Choose where to focus: spot opportunities, plan your resources and build your own path to growth.
- Your story begins with a choice
Pick your city. Plan your first investment.
You begin with 7,500 in-game money. Following your father’s passing, the opening story asks you to make your own way. Choose an active city and receive a small warehouse there. Anroga offers a trading bonus, Britani focuses on industry and Otuge on agriculture. You can choose whether to take the introductory farming and accounting courses, each with a cost and a lasting benefit. Then decide what to do with the inherited land: sell it for 2,500 or bring a final harvest of 750 cucumbers into your warehouse.
A first-step idea: Review your budget after the opening choices. A produce shop costs 3,000 to establish; leave room for stock instead of spending everything at once.
- Choose your sector
There is more than one way to grow.
Opening a business also means choosing the products you want to sell. Produce shops, butchers, cosmetics shops, clothing stores, cafés, furniture stores, electronics shops, hardware stores and supermarkets offer different product groups. Car rental is a separate business model. Focus on a sector that fits your starting budget, then expand as your capital grows. Opening new shelves lets you offer more products. You also need to plan for the business-opening rights and certificates required as you expand.
Think big, but consider establishment costs, stock and operating needs together before taking the next step.
- Buy, stock, sell, reinvest
The trading cycle keeps your company moving.
The market is where you replenish stock and offer products to other players. Goods are stored in your city warehouse, and your businesses need enough stock for the products on their shelves. As sales progress, money builds up in the till; collect it to put your earnings to work. Stock levels, sales time, collection windows and taxes all affect profit. Sales pause when the collection window expires, so collecting regularly keeps the business moving. Reinvest in goods, another shelf or a new business. Higher sales revenue does not automatically mean higher net profit.
An example cycle: Buy goods at the market → stock your warehouse → sell through your business → collect earnings → reinvest.
- Do more than trade. Produce.
Build a chain from farms to factories.
Farms and land let you enter agricultural production, while factories open up other product categories. Choose what to produce by weighing production time, cost, capacity and certificate requirements. Finished products enter your warehouse, ready to be traded or used to supply suitable businesses. Production has losses and capacity limits. Instead of simply picking the most expensive product, build a production plan that matches your capital and sales strategy.
Becoming a producer changes your supply strategy: you decide what to make, when to make it and how much to produce.
- Take trade beyond your city
Goods become opportunities in the right place.
A city is more than a name on the map. Warehouses and goods are tied to locations, making transport planning important for trade between cities. In Logistics, you can purchase trucks, accept suitable transport jobs and make deliveries. Capacity, routes and travel time influence your decisions. The airport is where you plan your own city changes. Expand your trading network or make transportation a business focus in its own right.
Your character’s travel and the shipment of goods are separate activities. Always check which city holds your stock.
- Manage the whole company
People, stock, cash and responsibilities.
As your businesses grow, there is more to keep track of. Hiring workers affects collection windows, and employment periods need attention. While active, the My Company management team helps you understand your company’s situation. Accounting, human resources and purchasing roles highlight different needs. When supplies run short, the purchasing manager’s alert can take you to the market. Taxes and payment obligations belong in your daily plan too.
The My Company management panel is a time-limited feature. Its introductory trial and continued-use terms are shown in the game.
- Diversify your income sources
There is a world beyond your shop.
Property offers construction, rental and management options, subject to the necessary documents and materials. A car-rental business lets you build and manage a fleet. These activities create different paths alongside your core trading business. Owning an asset does not mean unlimited income: rental terms, useful life, collection windows and associated costs matter. Plan a new investment without leaving your everyday businesses short of working capital.
Choose your goal: a strong retail network, a vehicle fleet or a company with several different business lines.
- Watch opportunities. Compare the terms.
New decisions in the exchange and tenders.
Once you reach the required rank, you can explore sector indices and holding shares on the in-game exchange. Their values can change, and trading fees apply. Government tenders also require you to review the delivery, bid, deadline or payment conditions for each opportunity. Diamond-based sales auctions are different from product-purchasing contracts. Evaluate the obligation you take on as carefully as the reward on offer.
Choose opportunities that fit your production, stock and delivery capacity. Profits on the exchange are not guaranteed.
- Build bigger ambitions together
Holdings, relationships and competition.
Your journey connects with other players through the market, messages, profiles and rankings. Holdings let players work toward shared goals. Apply to one or establish your own once you meet the capital and other requirements. Membership terms, investments and the benefits of holding buildings all matter. Your company’s identity comes from the business you do and the relationships you build, as well as its balance.
Before joining a holding, read the application fee, membership requirements and recurring investment obligations.
- Make your progress visible
Complete tasks. Show your rank.
Ranks give your business journey a visible identity. The game has 40 ranks, with a badge displayed on your profile. When you advance to a new rank, a celebration on the home page points you toward Tasks, where you claim the reward. Goals such as opening businesses, making deliveries and returning on different days also feature in the task system. The introductory guide walks you through business, market, credit, sales and reward steps.
Check Tasks after reaching a new rank or completing a goal, and remember to claim your rewards.
- Plan your finances. Know your benefits.
Banking, cash flow and optional VIP.
The bank offers credit and term-deposit options. Before borrowing, consider repayment schedules and late-payment terms. Player-to-player bank transfers require active VIP membership for both the sender and recipient. Verify an account number, check the recipient’s name, enter an amount and explanation, then confirm the total debit. Fees are added to the sender’s cost: Bronze 20%, Silver 15% and Diamond 10%. You can send twice per day, up to 1,000,000 in-game money per transfer. The explanation must contain at least 30 letters and four distinct words. Receipts are stored, and the recipient receives an English message.
Bronze, Silver and Diamond VIP tiers offer additional benefits. VIP is not required to start playing, but certain features, including bank transfers, require it.
Build the company you imagine, one step at a time.
You do not need to enter every sector on your first day. Get to know your city, learn the trading cycle of one business, and keep an eye on stock and cash. Then move toward what interests you: production, logistics, property, car rental or partnerships. Your imagination and preferences set the direction; your plans and in-game decisions shape your progress.
