Star Citizen aUEC

aUEC is the money you spend in Star Citizen’s persistent universe: ships, weapons, gear, upgrades. We hand it over in-game, ship to ship or at a trade terminal.

How Currency works in Star Citizen

What aUEC is

Alpha United Earth Credits: the currency of the persistent universe. It buys ships, components, weapons, armour and the upgrades between them. The smallest order is one million aUEC, and you can step up from there.

How it’s delivered

We arrange an in-game rendezvous and hand it over directly, ship to ship or at a trade terminal. You give us your character name at checkout so we can find you.

Does it get wiped?

Sometimes, and CIG decides patch by patch. The last two didn’t: Alpha 4.9 and 4.10 both kept Long Term Persistence, so aUEC, ships and items carried over.

No wipe is expected with 4.11 either, but that is never certain until a patch is live. If you’re buying close to a major update, check the patch notes first or ask us.

Before you buy

Does aUEC get wiped when Star Citizen updates?

Sometimes. CIG decides patch by patch. The last two (4.9 and 4.10) kept Long Term Persistence, so aUEC carried over, and none is expected with 4.11. It’s never certain until a patch is live, so if you’re buying close to one, ask us first.

How fast is delivery?

Orders are fulfilled by hand, so timing depends on the game, the order size and availability. Once you've paid, open a Discord ticket and we'll lock in a hand-off time with you.

What if something goes wrong with my order?

If a supplier can't complete an order, we tell you and refund you in full to your original payment method. If an order you've paid for hasn't arrived, contact us at admin@getrankd.gg or on Discord and we'll either fulfil it or refund it. You won't need to chase us.

Why doesn't the USD price match what I'm charged?

All orders are charged in AUD. Any other currency shown before checkout, like USD, is an estimate at today's exchange rate, not the amount you pay. The real AUD total is always shown again right before you do.
