The game is completely free to play, though there is an optional Supporter Service available by in-game purchase. The normal service includes the ability to change the training type, hire and fire your staff, buy and sell players, set your lineup for the match, invest in scouting for young players, and run the team as an owner of a basketball team would. As with any manager game, the player must assign positions to the players and choose among some basic tactical and strategic options. Buzzerbeater is always under development, and the game developers are constantly adding new features to the game and enhancing the current ones. These additions, and proposed ideas, are usually accompanied by debate in the game's conferences.
