How to Buy/Sell Property in Upland

In the previous part of this series, we explained in detail the various property types and their rarity, as well as players’ status levels. In this part, we will explain how you can create an account in Upland and how you can buy or sell a property.

Upland Gaming Model

The Upland game follows a Play-To Earn model where platform users can buy, sell, and trade property as we generally do in the real world. Players can mint rare and unique property (NFTs) that is tradable in the secondary market for USD or UPX. Note that only KYC verified customers can directly sell their property in USD. As per the Upland report, till now the players have earned more than $1.5 million by playing and selling their assets.

Users can complete their property collection and earn additional rewards. They can participate in treasure hunts, property auctions, etc. organized by the project.

Access the Upland Platform

To use Upland, visit the platform’s main page. On the landing page, you will find an Enter Upland button. Click on it, and you will be redirected to this page. This is the login/sign-up page for the platform.

Get UPX From the Store

UPX is the in-game currency and has multiple utilities inside the Upland ecosystem. Users can use it to mint properties, buy NFTs from the Upland store, place marketplace transactions, and more. However, it is not tradable in the outside market. That means the usage of the token is strictly restricted to Upland and has no value outside of it.

Users can acquire more UPX tokens by clicking on the Get UPX button. Once you click on this button, it will open up the store where you can see different packages to buy the UPX token.

Select your package and approve the terms and conditions. Next, you can choose the method of how you wish to pay for your purchase. The application offers you two methods:

  • Pay With Paypal – Pay using your PayPal account.
  • Pay With Crypto – Pay using various cryptocurrencies.

If you want to pay using your existing crypto, then select the second option, i.e., Pay With Crypto.

Next, the application will provide you with options to choose different assets that you can use to pay for this buy. Select your preferred asset.

Once you complete your first purchase, you will again receive a bonus of 100 UPX tokens in your account.

Explore Upland

Once you have enough UPX tokens in your account, you will be prompted to select a city to embark on your journey in Upland. Choose your city wisely. If you didn’t like the city that you selected earlier, then you need to pay to take a train, plane, or bus to commute to some other city.

We have chosen Detroit as our city.

Once you are inside the city, you can explore and buy a property. New users are advised to buy properties marked with FSA. These are the properties that are reserved for only new users.
