Transfer Gold from Alliance to Horde in World of Warcraft

Basically, this is a guide that will show you the easiest way to transfer money from horde to alliance.

Steps

Transferring from an Alliance Character to a Horde Character

  1. As the Horde character, find a worthless item. For instance, Dried Bat Blood from a Duskbat in Tirisfal Glades.
  2. Calculate the commission for the neutral AH. In the case of 15%, put the Dried Bat Blood on it for 1150 gold.
  3. With your Alliance character or through a friend, buyout the item at the price in step 2.

You have now effectively transferred 1000g.

Transferring from a Horde Character to an Alliance Character

  1. Log in to the character to whom you want to transfer.
  2. Go to a neutral AH (Auction House) and put a rubbish item with 24 gold buyout. Neutral Auction Houses are as follows : Gadgetzan, Tanaris Desert; Booty Bay in Stranglethorn and Everlook in Winterspring. A neutral AH is an AH that can be used by both factions.

  3. Get the character from whom you want to transfer gold from to the same Auction House, find your auction and buy it out. Congratulations ! You have just transferred 24 gold between alliance and horde.
  4. PATCH 3.2 Edit: You now have to have a friend on another account help you because you can not bid on your own auctions.
  5. Your transfer will be subject to the 15% sellers fee that the neutral AH applies to all completed sales.
  6. Best bet:
  7. Get 2 accounts or a friend you really trust on another account to help you.
  8. Buy something on the alliance/horde side that is about the price you wish to transfer. Make sure it is an Auction-able item that sells for at least what you paid for it in the faction auction house you are transferring to.
  9. Post it in the neutral AH for 1 silver.
  10. Immediately have your friend buy it out at 1 silver.
  11. Have your friend then give the item to the toon you want to have the money transferred to.
  12. Post it in the factioned AH for the buyout you wanted to transfer or just bark it out on trade chat.

This way the neutral AH commission is charged 15% on the 1 silver final sale price... 15 copper. There's a couple more steps to it, but the transfer will be completed and you only lose pennies instead of gold.

Warnings

  • Beware of the auction costs and as well the AH's commissions (15%) as you may not receive exactly 24 gold, but rather 20 gold and 40 silver.
