Can’t wait to snag that Black Ice for your MP5 or flip some charms for credits? Accessing the R6 Marketplace lets you trade cosmetics directly with other Rainbow Six Siege players. But right now, on December 30, 2025, the marketplace is offline due to a security incident. Ubisoft shut it down after hackers injected billions of R6 Credits and dev skins, but servers are back for matches. Expect it to reopen soon—use this guide to prepare your account today. We’ll cover eligibility, 2FA setup, PC and console login, and fixes for glitches. Follow these steps, and you’ll be trading the second it’s live.
Quick Status Check: Why Can’t I Access R6 Marketplace Right Now?
As of today, Ubisoft has kept the marketplace closed for investigations following the December 27 breach. Players saw wild glitches like 2 billion credits and unauthorized skins, leading to a full rollback. Gameplay works, but trading doesn’t—check Ubisoft’s status page or @Rainbow6Game on X for updates.
No need to panic. Prep your account now:
- Change your Ubisoft password if you logged in during the hack window (Dec 27, 10:49 UTC onward).
- Items may vanish temporarily for some; fixes roll out over two weeks.
Once online, head to the official site: rainbow6.ubisoft.com/siege/marketplace.
Step 1: Confirm You Meet R6 Marketplace Eligibility Requirements
You need three basics to get on R6 Marketplace: Level 25 clearance, recent gameplay, and 2FA. Skip these, and login fails every time.
You must reach clearance level 25 in Siege. That usually takes 15-25 hours for new players. Check your profile in-game—if you’re there, great. If not, grind Quick Matches to speed things up.
Next, play one match that gives XP after hitting 25. Even a quick Casual or Terrorist Hunt works.
Your account needs to be in good standing—no bans or sanctions.
Pro tip: I once hit 25 but couldn’t access because I skipped a match post-level-up. One Terrorist Hunt fixed it instantly.
(Imagine screenshot here: R6 Siege profile screen showing Clearance Level 25.)
Step 2: Enable 2FA for R6 Marketplace Login
2FA blocks hackers—Ubisoft requires it for every login. Setup takes 2 minutes.
Head to account.ubisoft.com and log in.
Click your profile icon and choose Account Information.
Scroll to the Security tab.
Find 2-Step Verification and hit Activate.
Pick Authenticator App—Google Authenticator or Authy work best.
Scan the QR code with your phone.
Enter the 6-digit code it shows.
Save those backup codes somewhere safe.
That’s it. Next time you log in, it’ll ask for the code.
(Imagine screenshot here: Ubisoft 2FA setup screen with QR code.)
If you prefer email verification, choose that, but the app is quicker and more reliable. Test by logging out and back in.
Step 3: How to Get to R6 Marketplace on PC (Web and In-Game)
PC players have the smoothest experience. You get two solid options.
For web access: Go straight to rainbow6.ubisoft.com/siege/marketplace.
Click Sign In, enter your details, add the 2FA code, and you’re in. The Buy and Sell tabs appear right away.
Where is R6 Marketplace exactly? That’s the direct spot under Siege on Ubisoft’s site. No extra downloads.
(Imagine screenshot here: R6 Marketplace dashboard after login.)
For in-game: Launch Siege through Ubisoft Connect or Steam.
From the main menu, hit the Shop tab.
Scroll down and pick Marketplace.
It logs you in automatically if everything checks out.
Quick advice: Use the web version while queuing for matches—it loads faster.
How to Access R6 Marketplace on Console (PS5, Xbox Series X/S)
Console doesn’t have a built-in menu yet, so you go through a web browser. Everything syncs across platforms.
First, link your console account in Siege under Ubisoft Account settings—connect PSN or Xbox Live.
Then, on your phone or any computer, open the marketplace site.
Log in there. Any buys or sells show up in your console inventory next time you launch the game.
PS5 players often use their phone browser. Xbox works the same.
Current word from Ubisoft: They’re planning fuller console support in a future update, but web handles it perfectly for now.

Troubleshooting: R6 Marketplace Login Not Working?
Running into issues? Here’s what usually fixes them.
If you see “Access Denied,” double-check level 25 and that recent match. Jump in and play one.
For 2FA problems, make sure your phone’s time syncs automatically—wrong time breaks codes. Or use a backup code.
Loading hangs? Clear your browser cache with Ctrl+Shift+Del, or switch to incognito mode. Chrome or Edge often work better.
After the breach, you might hit queues—just wait a bit.
Console sync acting up? Restart Siege after making web changes.
Video walkthrough: Search YouTube for “R6 Marketplace access tutorial”—plenty of 5-minute clips show exact clicks.
