Sell Origin Account: Is This Legal?

Selling your Origin account violates EA's terms of use, so your account may be blocked. Buying and selling is therefore at your own risk.
According to a judgment of the ECJ, however, used software can be resold. Most platforms therefore allow trading with Origin accounts. EA can still impose a subsequent account lock - however, this usually does not happen.

You can sell your Origin account on eBay, among other things. Depending on how many games the account contains, the prices are usually between 5 and 40 euros.
Make sure that you change your password to a cryptic password before selling and never use a password that you used to register accounts with other services.

As an alternative to the eBay online auction house, you can also sell your Origin account privately.
It is safest to buy the account from friends or acquaintances, from whom you can receive the money in cash or transfer it.
Alternatively, there are numerous forums on the Internet such as "Elitepvpers.com", in which you can trade Origin accounts in separate areas. Be sure to read the sales guidelines beforehand and be careful not to fall victim to a scam.
