WoW Token Prices

The WoW Token is an in-game item Blizzard introduced so players can trade game time for gold or vice versa. A player buys a Token from the Blizzard shop and lists it on the in-game Auction House; another player buys the listed Token with gold and redeems it for 30 days of game time. The Token price floats based on supply and demand in each region.

Blizzard sets the price algorithmically based on the live supply and demand inside each regional auction house. When more players want to buy Tokens with gold, the price rises; when more players list Tokens for sale, the price falls. We record each new price Blizzard publishes. The chart above plots hourly averages on the 24-hour and 7-day views, and four-hour averages on the 30-day, 90-day and full-history views.

US and EU operate as separate token markets with their own player bases, gold supply, and demand patterns. Each region has its own Token auction queue and price curve. A Token bought in the US cannot be sold in the EU and vice versa, so the two prices float independently — sometimes by tens of thousands of gold.

No. Tokens are bound to the region you purchased them in — a US Token can only be listed and redeemed on US realms, and the same holds for EU, KR, and TW. There is no cross-region transfer, conversion, or shared market, so the four price feeds above are fully isolated.
