fcsniper: frequently asked questions
Pricing, safety, install, hardware and the awkward questions. If something is missing, ask in a question in the buyers’ Discord and it will end up on this page.
How much does fcsniper cost?
€10 per season. One payment covers the full EA FC season, which is a year. It is not a monthly subscription and there is no commission on the coins you make. There is no tier above it.
How many EA accounts does one licence cover?
Unlimited. Every account you own, on the one €10 season licence. Per-account pricing exists because it is profitable, not because a second account costs anything to support.
Do I pay again when the next EA FC comes out?
Yes — the licence runs for one season, so the next season is another €10. Everything inside your season is covered: every web app change EA ships gets a matching fcsniper update at no extra cost. At €10 it is still less than half what the nearest local competitor charges for a year on roughly one account.
Is there a free trial?
The build is €10 with no trial tier, which is roughly the price of a trial elsewhere. The demo clips show real runs with the real panel, and every claim on the site is checkable before you spend anything.
Do you need my EA email or password?
No. fcsniper is a browser extension that runs inside the web app tab you already signed into. It has no backend server, so there is nowhere for your credentials to go even in principle.
Where is my data stored?
In your browser's local storage. Filters, saved configurations, run stats and the activity log never leave your machine. fcsniper keeps working with no connection to us at all.
Will I get banned?
Automation breaks EA's User Agreement, so the risk is never zero. No bans have been reported on fcsniper's recommended settings, which exist to remove the patterns EA actually looks for: fixed intervals, endless uptime, market-only activity and ignored CAPTCHAs. Full safety guide.
What happens when a CAPTCHA appears?
fcsniper stops the run immediately and plays an alert sound. You solve it yourself and give the account a break before restarting. A bot that grinds through a CAPTCHA is a bot announcing itself.
What is a soft ban, and does fcsniper handle it?
A soft ban is a temporary market restriction — empty searches or silently failing purchases. fcsniper detects it, stops, plays a sound and counts it on the dashboard. A climbing soft-ban counter means your intervals are too aggressive.
Which browsers does it work in?
Any Chromium browser with Manifest V3 support: Chrome, Edge, Brave and Opera, on Windows, macOS or Linux.
Does it work with PlayStation and Xbox accounts?
Yes. fcsniper drives the Ultimate Team web app, which supports PlayStation, Xbox and PC accounts.
Does my computer need to stay on?
Yes — awake, with the web app tab open. That is the trade for never handing your account to somebody else's server. An old laptop or a small VPS handles it comfortably.
Can I run it on a VPS?
Yes. It is a normal Chromium extension, so anything that can run a desktop browser can run fcsniper.
Can I snipe one specific player?
Yes. You set the filter, including a named player and a maximum BIN. Commission platforms frequently do not offer this because their engine chooses for you.
Does it bid, or only buy now?
Both. There is a sniping bot for BIN purchases and a bidding bot that watches expiring auctions with a maximum bid ceiling.
What does it do with the cards it wins?
Whatever you told it to, per filter: list at the live FUTBIN price, send to club, send to transfer list, or quick sell. It also clears sold items and re-lists what did not sell.
Can I save more than one filter?
Yes, unlimited named configurations, with copy, overwrite, import and export. Exported configs are shareable.
How much can I make?
It depends on your filter, your starting coins and the market. A tight fodder filter on a busy market typically returns tens of thousands of coins an hour; high-rated snipes land less often and pay much more. The panel shows live profit per hour, which is the only number that answers this for your setup.
How many coins do I need to start?
Enough to buy several of whatever you are filtering for, so the bot is not idle waiting on funds. For a fodder filter that is usually 30–50K. It will tell you when it runs out.
Can I use fcsniper alongside another bot?
No, and this is the one hard rule. Two tools refreshing the same market on the same account produce a request pattern neither intended, and it is the most reliable way to get flagged that we know of.
How do I install it?
Unzip the build, open chrome://extensions, turn on Developer mode, and click Load unpacked. About a minute. Step-by-step guide.
Why is it not on the Chrome Web Store?
Google's store policies do not permit game automation extensions, so it is distributed as an unpacked build. That is also why it can run with no backend — there is no review process forcing a different architecture.
Is fcsniper affiliated with EA?
No. It is an independent third-party tool, not affiliated with, endorsed by or sponsored by Electronic Arts Inc. EA, EA SPORTS, FIFA and Ultimate Team are trademarks of Electronic Arts Inc.
Where do I get help?
Your delivery email contains a private Discord invite and is itself a support thread — reply to the email your licence arrived in. Bring your browser version, the fcsniper version from the panel header, and what the activity log said.
