Question 1

What is BMO?

Accepted Answer

BMO is the #1 Minecraft middleman service. It is a web platform where users can safely buy, sell, and trade Minecraft accounts, Hypixel Skyblock coins, ranks, in-game items, capes, plugins, servers, and more. Every trade can be overseen by a verified human middleman who holds items in escrow until both buyer and seller confirm delivery.

Question 2

How do middlemen work on BMO?

Accepted Answer

Middlemen are verified staff members who act as trusted intermediaries. The seller gives their items to the middleman, who holds them in escrow. Once the middleman confirms the items are held, the buyer pays the seller directly. After payment is confirmed, the middleman releases the items to the buyer. This ensures the seller can't take payment without delivering, and the buyer can't take items without paying. BMO Elite subscribers get priority middleman matching.

Question 3

What can I trade on BMO?

Accepted Answer

You can trade Minecraft accounts, Hypixel Skyblock coins, server ranks, in-game items, capes and cosmetics, plugins, bases and builds, mods and configs, crates and keys, servers, services (boosting, building, coding), tools and weapons, and more. All categories are Minecraft-related.

Question 4

How do I deposit money on BMO?

Accepted Answer

Go to Purchases > Deposit and choose a cryptocurrency: Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Litecoin (LTC), or Tether (USDT). The minimum deposit is $15. Your deposit is converted to BMOCash in your in-platform wallet, which you can use for subscriptions, featured listings, and sending to other users.

Question 5

How does reputation work on BMO?

Accepted Answer

After each completed trade, both parties can leave +Rep (positive) or -Rep (negative) with a comment and proof screenshots. All reputation must be approved by staff before it appears. Your reputation determines your seller level: Newcomer (0-4), Active Trader (5-14), Experienced (15-29), Veteran (30-49), Elite (50-99), and Legend (100+). Higher reputation means higher trust.

Question 6

Can I get scammed on BMO?

Accepted Answer

BMO significantly reduces scam risk through escrow, verified middlemen, and an 11-point automated scam detection system that scores every trade for risk. However, no system is 100% foolproof. Always use a middleman for high-value trades, check the other party's reputation, and use the ban checker tool before trading.

Question 7

How do I become a middleman on BMO?

Accepted Answer

You need at least 50 reputation to apply. Go to Staff Panel > Middleman > Apply. Applications are reviewed by senior staff. Middlemen must be trustworthy, active, and have a clean trade history with no disputes or bans.

Question 8

What happens in a dispute on BMO?

Accepted Answer

Both parties can submit evidence including screenshots, transaction IDs, and chat logs. BMO staff reviews all evidence and makes a decision. Disputes that are inactive for 7 or more days are automatically cancelled. The dispute resolution process is designed to be fair and transparent.

Question 9

Is my data safe on BMO?

Accepted Answer

BMO uses Row Level Security on all database tables, encrypted connections, webhook signature verification, and follows security best practices. Payment card details are never stored — all cryptocurrency payments go through NOWPayments. The platform is built with Supabase (PostgreSQL) with strict security policies.

Question 11

How does the ban checker work on BMO?

Accepted Answer

Enter a Minecraft username or UUID on the Ban Check page to see if a player is banned on BMO or flagged as a scammer. It shows ban history, reasons, and dates. Use it before trading with anyone to verify they have a clean record on the platform.

Question 12

Yes, BMO is completely free to sign up and use. Free users can create up to 3 active listings, access all tools (ban checker, MC lookup, IGN lookup), join community chat, and view listing analytics.
