Example Trade:
Say you want to buy the Löwe, which costs 12,500. In exchange, you’d like to trade in your old Dicker Max, which normally costs 3,200.
Just like when selling vehicles gives you half the original value in Credits, trading in your old Premium tank will get you half of its value in Gold, which is then deducted from the total price of the tank you’re buying.
In this example, trading in your Dicker Max gets you half of its Gold price, 1,600. That lowers the price of the Löwe by the same amount, leaving 10,900 as the cost to buy.
How to Trade In
From the tech tree, choose the eligible vehicle you’d like to buy.

 |
| Tech Tree | Tank Purchase Window |
Depending on how much Gold you have, the tank’s shown in two different ways:
 |
 |
| Sufficient Gold | Insufficient Gold |
Once you’ve decided, right-click the vehicle and choose “Purchase” or “Trade In.”
You’ll see a list of tanks that can be traded in, ordered by price. This includes every eligible vehicle, even those currently in battle, not repaired or in a Platoon. Click on them to see their stats.

The trade-in menu also has the ability to add things like basic ammunition, Crew training, etc.

- Gold price may be affected by Premium tank discounts
- Ammo, equipment and consumables loaded on the trade-in vehicle will automatically be dismounted and placed in the Depot for free
- Camo, emblems and inscriptions on the trade-in vehicle will go to the Depot; however, as they’re vehicle-bound, you can only use them again if you get the tank back in the future
- Crew on the trade-in vehicle automatically goes the Barracks. If there aren’t enough free bunks in the Barracks, the trade-in won’t be possible
- Trade-in vehicles can’t be restored using the in-game Restore feature
- When trading in, you don’t need to buy an extra Garage slot, since the new vehicle will take the old vehicle’s slot
