The SAGE Local Markets in STAR ATLAS are a powerful feature for trading resources and earning ATLAS tokens efficiently. This guide explains how to leverage Local Markets in 2025 gameplay, tailored for players who’ve completed our beginner guides or are ready to advance in SAGE Labs. Let’s dive in and maximize your profits in the galactic economy!
What Are SAGE Local Markets?
Local Markets are trading hubs within SAGE Labs, allowing players to buy and sell resources and items in specific star system zones, such as areas around the Central Space Station. Unlike the Galactic Marketplace, Local Markets focus on zone-specific trading, reducing transport costs and enabling faster transactions. They were introduced with the “Dawn of the Freighter” update in December 2024.
Benefits of Local Markets
Using Local Markets offers several advantages:
- Lower Transport Costs: Trading within the same zone minimizes fuel expenses, boosting profit margins.
- Faster Transactions: Local Markets enable quick trades with dynamic pricing based on local demand.
- Zone-Based Economy: Leverage supply and demand unique to each zone for strategic trading.
Understanding zone-specific needs is key to unlocking these benefits.
How to Use Local Markets Effectively
Here are practical ways to make the most of Local Markets:
1. Identify High-Demand Resources
Different zones have varying demands for resources like fuel, food, or R4 materials. For example, MUD faction zones may offer premium prices for specific resources. Use SAGE Labs’ scanners to pinpoint which resources are in short supply. Learn more about scanners in our guide.
2. Deploy the Right Ships and Crew
Trading in Local Markets requires ships to transport resources. Here’s what works best:
- Calico Shipit: A small freighter ideal for low-cost transport of modest resource loads, featuring a limited “Dragon” skin from the Local Markets launch.
- Merchant Crew: Enhances trading efficiency, reducing transaction costs.
- Pilot Crew: Speeds up transport, saving time.
Check our Crew Cards guide for more crew tips.
3. Optimize Pricing Strategies
Prices in Local Markets fluctuate based on player-driven supply and demand. Keep these tips in mind:
- Price high-demand resources above average.
- Sell surplus resources quickly at lower prices to clear inventory.
- Monitor competitor pricing regularly to stay competitive.
