4 ways you can make money playing Fortnite

1. Play in 3rd Party Tournaments

Anyone can make money playing Fortnite by joining an online tournament. Players around the world pay for their spot in a bracket for the chance to win a prize pool. Platforms such as The E-Sports Hub, Tournaments and GamerzArena are just a few of the sites that host online tournaments.

Alternatively, you could play a custom tournament against friends. A similar idea is to join an open LAN party. There are tons of small LAN parties out there where you can compete for money.

Fortnite also has a special in-game tournament with a prize fund of $20,000. However, this tournament reserved for top gamers like Ninja, Lachlan, and Dakotaz.

2. Sell your Fortnite account

You have won over 100 games and have more than 250 kills on your account. Surely that is worth something? The good news is, it is! The market for populated Fortnite accounts is big. And many sites offer their services as a middle man between sellers and buyers.

Accounts with a lot of wins and kills will get the most money. And similarly, if you have rare skins or emotes, the value of your account will increase.

A word of caution; this option is frowned upon by the gaming community and by Epic Games. If Epic finds an account that has been sold, they will ban it.

3. Bet on Fortnite tournaments

If you love the game and understand it well, but you’re not a brilliant player. Or if you are good and simply want another income stream, you can also bet on Fortnite tournaments. Whether this is with your friends or betting on pro tournaments, it’s a sure way to earn money.

Websites like sport betting, Sickodds and WODuels will convert your strategic knowledge in real money, if you get the odds right!

4. Stream or upload to Twitch & YouTube

Whether you want to make money streaming or by uploading content to YouTube, these are the tools to do it with playing Fortnite.
