If you're looking for a FUT Simple Trader alternative, it helps to know what each tool is trying to be. FUT Simple Trader (FST) covers a lot of ground: buying, listing, bidding, SBCs and stats, across several apps. FC AutoBuyer does one job, Buy Now sniping, from one Chrome extension. We make FC AutoBuyer, so read this with that in mind. Every FST detail below comes from their own website.
FC AutoBuyer or FUT Simple Trader: the quick answer
- Want an EA FC autobuyer for sniping? FC AutoBuyer costs £7.99 a month or £29.99 until EA FC 27 ends.
- Want bidding or an SBC solver today? FST has both. FC AutoBuyer already lists what it snipes, and won't list a card at a loss. Bidding is next.

Pricing: a £7.99 licence vs monthly or yearly plans
FST has two plans, priced in euros plus VAT:

- Premium Trader: €19.90 a month or €119 a year. Adds Live Filters, Auto Trading with all filters, the SBC Solver and Stats Zone.
There's a 24-hour Premium trial. Each subscription covers one EA account at a time. FST offers a 30-day money-back guarantee on monthly plans bought through Whop or Patreon, and only if you don't make a profit following their recommendations.
FC AutoBuyer is £7.99 a month, or £29.99 until EA FC 27 ends. ./../pricing/">one-price plan page has the details. Everything described below is live today unless we mark it "coming soon".
Where each one runs
Both tools work with the official EA SPORTS FC Ultimate Team Web App. FST says it runs inside the Web App and never asks for your EA login details. FC AutoBuyer runs inside the Web App in your own browser and never asks for your EA password.
The difference is the shape of the product. FST comes as a desktop app for Windows and macOS, a Chrome extension, iOS and Android apps and a web dashboard, so you can pick how you trade. FC AutoBuyer is one Chrome extension with nothing else to install. It has a headless mode, so a run can carry on in a background tab. For more on the trade-offs, see Chrome extension vs app autobuyers.
Sniping and automation features
FC AutoBuyer is built around the Buy Now sniper. Here's what's live:
- Two buy modes: any card under your max price, or the cheapest on the page up to a per-card limit.
- Saved filters with automatic rotation, rating ranges and skip lists.
- Randomised delays and automatic breaks.
- Auto-stop on a captcha, soft ban, expired session or low coins.
- Alerts: Discord or custom webhooks, desktop notifications and sounds.
- Hotkeys, run history with per-run stats and a compatibility check after EA updates.
We designed the dashboard so everything you need for a run sits on one screen. FST's Pro plan covers automatic search, purchase and listing with custom filters, and Premium adds Live Filters and Auto Trading with all filters.
Spending limits and a review before every run
FC AutoBuyer has three hard limits: a max price per card, a budget for the run and a number of coins to keep. It checks all three before every buy. Before each run starts, a review screen shows you exactly what it's about to do, so you can check your prices and limits before a single search. Our guide to autobuyer filter settings suggests sensible starting points.
Where FUT Simple Trader is ahead
- Bidding. FST's Pro plan includes Auto Bidding. FC AutoBuyer lists already; bidding is next.
- SBC Solver and Stats Zone. Both are on FST's Premium plan. FC AutoBuyer doesn't have them.
