The player below Level 25 is not allowed to trade currency or unique items in the game.
Trading will help you to earn a lot of money in Path of Exile. You will be spending a lot of time looting items. If you are inventory is almost full you can sell them off and grab some serious cash. That can be later on used to acquire more powerful items in Path of Exile. The issue with this game is it does not have a single currency, instead, it has a complex set of items. That can be exchanged for more powerful ones. For this, you will have to visit vendors that do not sell things for free.
For in-game trading just find a player and right-click on it > trade to start trading. The game does not have an auction house. Through the basic trade menu, both players can adjust items into each other’s inventory and then finalize to exchange. So it’s always between the players. But if you are looking for more advanced data for trading then you can use online shops. There is one more that can give you an extensive index of different items – Poe.Trade.
