Some time ago, we modified the method of how the player sales tax is calculated. The goal of this change was to limit short-term player sales. Currently, the base tax is 8% of the sale value, to which a second component depending on the time player spent at the club, is added.

This change affected not only those trading in players but also a broader group of users. Our goal was not to restrict trading itself, so we decided to modify the current formula.

The base tax remains unchanged at 8% of the total player sale price. The second component, based on the player's time spent at the club, will be charged not on the entire sale price, but solely on the profit from the sale of the player.

This means that if you sell a player for an amount equal to or less than the amount for which they were bought, you will only pay 8% of the base tax - regardless of how quickly the transaction occurs.

The correction is effective from 16.08.2025.

As you may have noticed, after restoring the game, videos of past matches were not available. Your team logos and user photos were also unavailable.
Transfer of match video files is ongoing and will be available again in the near future. However, due to an outage, the image files, are, sadly, gone.

To set a team logo or user photo, you must visit the Office, select the Media tab, and then select Images.

We are sorry, but we can only apologize for the inconvenience.

We’re happy to announce that Sokker.org is now back online – the game has been restored on our new cloud-based server and is fully operational. Thank you for your patience and understanding during the recent technical issues.



To address the disruption, all game events have been shifted by one week, ensuring the calendar remains in line with the original schedule. League matches will resume on Wednesday, just as originally planned.

All transfers that were scheduled to end on Wednesday or later have been canceled. Any fees related to those transfers will be refunded over the coming days.

The server failure accelerated our move to the cloud, and we are now taking the opportunity to test and fine-tune the new environment. We encourage you to play arcade matches to help us optimize performance further.

We sincerely apologize for the inconvenience – the issue was caused by a failure on the data center’s side and was not related to ongoing game development.

As compensation, every user will receive 7 days of Plus, which will be activated shortly.

Since time immemorial, the Sokker community has been complaining of the fact that when a team loses its owner, the development of many promising players has been severely hindered. In the past, we tried to address this issue by giving administrators additional tasks, but there was no doubt that this solution was far from optimal.

Last weekend, we began testing the automatic transferlisting of u21 national team players from bot teams. This weekend, you can expect the full implementation of this feature.
We believe this long-awaited functionality will positively impact many aspects of the game.

We have divided the players into two age groups: U21 and seniors, applying different criteria for each group to determine whether a player is eligible to be listed on the transfer market.

Players under 21:
- will be listed on the transfer market every Saturday, regardless of the season week,
- only if they are either, currently called up to the national team OR having played at least one match for the country.

Senior players:
- will be listed on Saturdays but only during weeks 1, 7, and 13 of each season (to ensure fair competition at the league level),
- only if they have played at least one match for the national team, as recorded in the stats.

The timing of players being listed on the transfer market depends on the country of origin and corresponds to the default time for arcade matches in that country. Players from the same country will be listed with five-minute intervals. If a players does not find a new team, he will remain on their current bot team and will not be listed again in subsequent date.

We recognize that the initial operation of this system might result in a substantial number of players being listed. Therefore, during the upcoming weekend, senior players will be listed with an age restriction of up to 30 years (inclusive). Over time, this process should stabilize, ensuring a steady but moderate influx of players.

* Please note: This weekend listing of u21 players will be stopped, to avoid having too many players on the Transfer List.

Following the discovery of irregularities in the recent elections for coach of national team of Cymru, a new elections has been called. They are shorter so the newly elected coach can try his hand on Saturday.

This morning, the elections for national team coaches have begun! For the first time, they will be held in a new format, which should better suit the shorter season and game schedule.
Here are the details:
.

.

NEW ELECTION FORMAT

• The elections start during the morning update on the last Saturday of the season and last a total of 8 days until the evening of the next Sunday
• Users will still have two almost full weekends and the entire week between them to cast their votes, which seems like enough time for the electoral campaign and making decisions.
• Thanks to shortening the voting period and quicker selection of new coaches, they will gain one additional friendly match before the official matches, during the World Cup qualification year.
• We have also introduced clear rules regarding eligibility to participate and vote in the elections. Only users who have been playing for over 13 weeks can participate and vote.
• Anyone with a longer-than-specified tenure can run for the position of head coach for any senior or U21 national team and vote in the senior and U21 elections in their own country.

=====================================

Soon, the elected coaches will gain a new important role.

We are pleased to inform you that we are approaching the end of the work on the function of automatically placing national team players on the transfer list if their club team becomes a bot.
The principle will be simple, but dependent on the player’s age.

Specifically, players called up by the coach to the national team:
• 21 years old and younger will be placed on the transfer list every Saturday during the season at different times adjusted to the time zones of their home countries.
• Older players will be placed on the transfer list only on Saturdays during the off-season break and on the Saturday before the 11th league round (so that transfers happen between league rounds).
This is to prevent situations where a strong bot team would play against some opponents and forfeit others, which could significantly affect the table standings.

Thanks to these changes, new coaches will have an even greater impact on the entire player base of country they lead- choose wisely!

We wish everyone a satisfying and fair electoral campaign and much success with the national teams!

We have been announcing this for some time and that time has now arrived.
As you know, for many years, disregarding rising costs, inflation, the need to reinvest in the service, we have kept PLUS prices constant.
However, in order to develop the game, provide new features and improve existing ones, we need to adapt to the market and introduce a new price list.
The changes will come into effect at the beginning of October.
.

.
But don't worry, we have included some promotions in PLUS's new service delivery model that will allow you to keep your current price up for even another year.
.


.
PLUS purchasing models and price lists:
.
NEW - MONTHLY SUBSCRIPTION:

PROMOTION: If you decide to join as a subscriber before the end of November this year (the date of your first card transaction counts) you will receive the special price and a guarantee to keep it for up to another 12 months.

SINGLE PAYMENT:

For those of you who will prefer to stay with your current payment method, packages from 2 months to a year, requiring full payment in advance for the selected period, will still be active.
The new prices are shown in the table above.

--------------------------------------------------------------

It was already about PRICES - so now about VALUES.

TUTORIAL
We realise that the game can be quite difficult for new users.
That's why we will soon be introducing an easily accessible and clear tutorial to help them understand the rules, mechanics and settle into the game.
And while it may not apply directly to those reading this message, I think we can all agree that the increase in the number of users will reflect positively on the game as a whole.

NEW VIEWS
Several sites will be expanded or refreshed very soon. There will be, for example, a ‘flag collector’ display.

TRAINING OF YOUNG PLAYERS
We will soon introduce changes in the way young players are trained, with the aim of improving the balance between playing for results and investing in squad development through training.

--------------------------------------------------------------

The next two are new projects, still in the concept stage, which we will be working on in the coming months but will have to wait a little longer for their full introduction.
However, we want you to know that this work is ongoing and as the projects develop, information about them will be brought to you in further news.

YOUTH SQUAD
You often report that the existing junior school system needs to be changed. In fact, despite changes in various areas, this one has remained untouched. We are aware of the need to adapt youth training to the shorter season. We would also like to develop a number of additions and extensions that will make the junior schools more attractive. The changes are intended to be positive for both club teams and the u21 national teams.

CLUB INTERNATIONAL COMPETITIONS
At the moment we have the Champions League. Prestigious, but also very closed, accessible only to the strongest teams. What if everyone could take part in an international competition, without exception, regardless of country or league level?
That is what we would like to give you. The opportunity to compete against rivals similar to you from other countries. We believe that, especially for small communities, this will be an excellent occasion to strengthen rivalry and develop the team.


We also make minor changes, adjustments and corrections - that's the maintenance work that allows us to boast high availability and service continuity despite occasional slip-ups - and although you can't see this work we do, it doesn't happen by itself.

That's all for today, I hope to be able to bring you more news and details of further plans soon.
