Asynchronous Trade is a mechanic that allows players to exchange non-currency items with other players without directly trading with them, generally those that cannot be exchanged through the Currency Exchange. Asynchronous Trade uses Merchant's Tabs, which unlike a stash tab is more akin to a populatable vendor window.
Asynchronous Trade can be accessed by talking to Ange, after inviting her to hideout. Asynchronous Trade is available in Act 4 through Ange.
Mechanics
When purchasing items from the seller, the buyer can also browse other items listed for sale by that player.
Items that are listed for sale have a cooldown before the item can be removed prematurely, and this cooldown refreshes when a new player joins your hideout.
Only 24 non-party non-friend players can be in your hideout at once.[1]
Merchant's Tab
Items must be individually priced when placed in a Merchant's Tab. It is not possible to set a bulk price for the entire tab like with a Premium Stash Tab.
Premium Stash Tabs purchased before version 0.3.0 can be converted into Merchant's Tabs at any time in the player's account under "Manage Account" on the official POE website. Premium Stash Tabs purchased after this point cannot be converted, as Merchant's Tabs can be purchased directly from the MTX shop. Quad Stash Tabs cannot be converted. Any items in an existing upgraded stash tab will remain in a remove-only version of the Premium Stash Tab.
Warning about Premium Stash Tab to Merchant's Tab conversion
Premium Stash Tabs converted this way will become unavailable in Path of Exile 1 until Asynchronous Trade is implemented in that game. Additionally, Merchant's Tabs cannot be accessed in solo self found.
Gold tax
Although the seller incurs no additional fee, the buyer will need to pay an additional gold fee "a multiplier per level of what the shop prices are"[1]. The gold is not given back to the seller.
