# Buy-out clause
### Buy-Out clause
The buy-out clause is a feature which **enables users to buy each others players** when paying a certain set price.
Each player has a price for which any other user can buy him. Once the player is bought there will be a **24h period** in which the player will still be yours but after that it will go to the new club.
If you want the money before the 24h period and you already have a substitute for him **you can sell him before the period**.
### How do I use the buy-out clause?
Once you find the player you want just go to sign the player and then **match your bid to the clause**. Each team can make and receive a maximum of one buy-out at a time.
In order to make a buy-out, both teams (buyer and seller) must have at least **4,000 user experience points**. It is also necessary to know that it is not allowed to pay the clause of players who are in teams located 3 divisions below yours. For example, a first division team can pay the clause of players who are in the first, second, third or fourth division, but not in the fifth or sixth division.
### How can I protect my players?
If you want **your favorite player to stay in your club** there is only one option and it is **increasing the buy-out clause by increasing his salary**.
This clause is augmented through a new and improved contract given to your player. The **higher the wage the higher the buy-out clause**.
### Can anyone use buy-out clauses?
No, this incredible feature is only available once you and the other managers have 4**,000 experience points**. So, even if you have 4,000 experience points, you won't be able to pay the buy-out clause of a player which user has less than 4,000 experience points.
### How do I get experience points?
Experience points are given through **completing challenges, playing matches, signing players...** Basically by playing the game regularly.
### Where do I see how many experience points I have?
Click on the **top left on your name** and there you will see your user information. If you look closely you will see it says **experience and a number on the right of it**.
