The Banu Merchantman is a trading ship capable of landing or docking and then inviting locals in to view what its cargo holds have to offer. The ship design, perfected by generations of Banu development, is intended to offer a combination of high speed and durability. While the Merchantman is less configurable than a Caterpillar or a Starfarer, there's still plenty of room to take the ship in different directions.

  • All ships/items can be gifted only one time, so when you claim the ship it will be bound to that account. So be careful to be logged into the correct RSI account when you redeem your email about "gift" containing the transmitted ship/upgrade.

Accounts Delivery

  • Accounts are delivered differently from other items.
  • Once account is purchased you will receive an email with login information and instructions on how to secure it.
  • Complete Buyer Protection:
    When you make a purchase through our website, you can shop with confidence, knowing that all items are covered by our comprehensive buyer protection program. We guarantee that you will receive the exact item you ordered, or you will be entitled to a full refund. Your satisfaction and peace of mind are our top priorities.

  • Persistence Across Game Wipes:
    All ships and vehicles and items purchased from us are protected from patch wipes in Star Citizen (unless stated otherwise in the description). This means that with each new game patch, your purchased ships and vehicles will remain in your account, even if items acquired through in-game methods are removed. Enjoy uninterrupted access to your fleet, regardless of game updates.

  • Loaner Ships for Unavailable Items:
    Some of the ships, vehicles, or items in our catalog may not yet be available in the game. In such cases, you will receive a loaner ship or vehicle to use until the correct item becomes available in the game. If you are unsure whether the item you're interested in is currently "flight-ready," please don't hesitate to reach out to our team for clarification. You can find the up-to date loaner matrix HERE

  • FPS Gear and Item Recovery:
    Items such as armors, weapons, and other FPS gear (that can be carried in your inventory) are subject to loss upon death in the game. However, these items will automatically be restored to your inventory with the release of the next patch. CIG is actively developing a claim system that will allow you to recover these items without having to wait for a patch, offering even more convenience and flexibility in the future.

Star Citizen offers its players the chance to upgrade their virtual spacecraft through a feature known as "Cross Chassis Upgrades" or CCUs. These upgrades allow users to swap one ship for another while maintaining the original ship's value. To effectively apply these upgrades, follow the instructions below:

1. Purchase the CCU

Before anything else, you must first buy the CCU you want. You can do this by:

  • Head over to our upgrades section
  • Find the upgrade to the ship you want to upgrade to and choose the correct source ship from the drop down menu
  • Complete the purchase
  • Wait for the delivery via RSI gifting system (in most cases you should receive an email with the gift link in a few minutes)
  • Claim the upgrade by logging in on the RSI website and then clicking the gift link

2. Locate Your CCU in Your Hangar

After purchasing, your CCU will be sent to your online hangar.

  • Go to the "My Hangar" section on the RSI website.
  • Browse through your hangar's list until you find the CCU you just purchased.

3. Apply the Upgrade

Now that you've located the CCU, the next step is to apply it to your ship.

  • Click on the arrow located next to your CCU to expand its details.
  • Find the "Apply Upgrade" button and click on it.
  • You'll be taken to a page that will show both your current ship and the ship you want to upgrade to. Confirm that the details are accurate.
  • Click "Next" to move on to the final step.
  • On this page, you'll have to confirm the ship you're upgrading and the ship you're getting. If everything is right, click on the "Apply Upgrade" button.

Once you've done this, the upgrade will be finalized, and your old ship will be replaced with the new one in your hangar.

Important Notes

  • Melt Value: It's vital to remember that the melt value (the amount you'll get if you exchange your ship for store credit) remains based on the original ship's cost plus the cost of the CCU.
  • Downgrades: As of the last update, it's not possible to downgrade ships. If you want a cheaper ship, you'll have to melt your current ship and repurchase the desired one.
  • Insurance: When you upgrade a ship, the insurance and other bonuses from the original ship will carry over to the new ship.
  • Chaining CCU's: If you are unable to find a direct CCU, you can simply chain the upgrades and apply them one by one to get the ship you want.

By following the above steps, you can smoothly upgrade your ship in Star Citizen and explore the vast universe in a brand-new spacecraft. Always make sure to confirm all details before finalizing any upgrade to avoid potential issues.

Testimonials

I found a ship package in stock on their website that I had been trying to track down for a while, and after doing some research on the company I decided to pull the trigger. The order came much quicker than I thought and processed successfully with no issues. 5 stars for the speed of delivery, as well as their very well written out FAQ that answered every question I had. I'll be looking here first for any further purchases I plan on making.

I recently purchased a ship upgrade from The Impound, and I couldn’t be happier with my online shopping experience. Their website was user-friendly, making it easy to find the perfect ship. The checkout process was smooth, and I received my order promptly. The ship upgrade code arrived as bought, exactly as described on their website. I’m thrilled with the quality and will definitely shop at The Impound again in the future. Highly recommended!
