How to create a villager with custom trades?

Select the villager's profession, biome, and level, set a name and properties, and add as many trades as you want to the Trades table, specifying the buy item, sell item, uses, and other options. The command is generated automatically.

Is it possible to customize villager trades in Bedrock Edition?

Not directly through the /summon command. Bedrock Edition does not accept arbitrary NBT like Java Edition, so custom trades require a behavior pack. Therefore, in Bedrock mode, the generator focuses on the name, spawn event, and basic properties.

Bedrock Edition does not allow injecting arbitrary NBT data (such as custom trades) via /summon. In this mode, you can configure the name, spawn event, and basic properties. For custom trades in Bedrock, a behavior pack with a custom trade table (trade_table) is required.

How custom Villager trades work

Each custom villager trade consists of a buy item (what the player hands over), an optional second buy item, and a sell item (what the player receives). Additionally, you can configure the max uses a trade has before it locks up, how much XP the villager gains per transaction, a price multiplier (which alters the price based on player reputation), and a special price (a flat discount or price hike, typically negative for discounts).

Example of a generated command (Java Edition):

/summon minecraft:villager ~ ~ ~ {VillagerData:{profession:"minecraft:farmer",type:"minecraft:plains",level:5},Offers:{Recipes:[{buy:{id:"minecraft:emerald",count:5},sell:{id:"minecraft:diamond",count:1},maxUses:12,uses:0,xp:5,priceMultiplier:0.05f,specialPrice:0,rewardExp:1b}]}}

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I need to fill out every single field in a trade slot?

No. Only the primary buy item (A) and the sell item are required to make a trade valid. Leaving the other fields blank tells the game to fall back on its own default values.

What exactly is the "Special Price"?

It is a fixed price adjustment applied directly to the trade cost. Negative numbers apply a discount (similar to trading with Hero of the Village buffs active), whereas positive numbers increase the total price.

Does this work the same way in Bedrock Edition?

No. Bedrock Edition does not accept custom NBT data formats within the /summon command structure, meaning custom trades require a behavior pack featuring a designated trade_table layout.
