Final Fantasy XIV Market Board Prices

Market Dashboard — tracking Gil prices

The FFXIV Market Board is FFXIV's player-driven economy. Every world has its own board where retainers list items at fixed prices. There are no buy orders, only sell listings. City tax rates range from 3–7% depending on which retainer city you use — Limsa Lominsa is typically cheapest for sellers.

Market Board Mechanics

  • Per-world economies — prices vary significantly across worlds. Switch via the World selector.
  • Items can be bought cross-world within the same datacenter — great for arbitrage.
  • ~7% Market Board tax applied at sale (varies by city retainer location).

About the FFXIV Market Board

AuricDB vs Universalis

AuricDB uses Universalis as its FFXIV data source — Universalis is the community API populated by players running the Dalamud market board plugin. What AuricDB adds on top: scored flip opportunities (not just raw prices), email + Discord + Pushover alerts, cross-game watchlists, and a mobile-first UI. Both services are free for browsing prices.

Cross-world arbitrage

FFXIV's biggest market inefficiency: items are often 2–4× cheaper on low-population worlds than on the same data center's high-population worlds. Cross-world travel within a data center is free, so the arbitrage is essentially risk-free if the buyer has time to hop. Use the Cross-World table below to see the biggest gaps right now.

Worlds and data centers we cover

All 128 FFXIV worlds across Aether, Crystal, Primal, Dynamis (North America), Chaos, Light (Europe), Elemental, Gaia, Mana, Meteor (Japan), and Materia (Oceania). Each world is swept several times a day, and items you're actively tracking refresh every ~15 minutes.
