Whiteout Survival Teleport Guide
Whiteout Survival has four teleporters for moving your city inside your own State: the Advanced Teleporter lets you pick the spot, the Random Teleporter drops you at a random spot, the Alliance Teleporter puts you near your Alliance Leader, and the Territory Teleporter moves you within your alliance territory. To teleport to your alliance, recall your troops, open your Backpack and use an Alliance Teleporter. Moving to a different State is a different system called State Transfer. Checked in November 2026.
Teleporter Types
Each teleporter decides where your city lands, and that is the main difference between them. All four work inside your current State.
| Teleporter | Where it moves you | Main use |
|---|---|---|
| Advanced Teleporter | A location you pick in the current State | Exact positioning |
| Random Teleporter | A random location in the current State | A quick change of area |
| Alliance Teleporter | Near the Alliance Leader | Joining the alliance on the map |
| Territory Teleporter | Within alliance territory | Regrouping inside the territory |
Pick the teleporter by the job: the Alliance Teleporter for being near the leader, the Advanced one for an exact spot, the Territory one for regrouping, and the Random one only when the destination does not matter. A Random Teleporter can drop you inside another alliance's territory, which is a poor surprise right before a fight.
Teleport to Your Alliance
The Alliance Teleporter moves your city next to your Alliance Leader, who can be outside alliance territory. Follow these steps:
- Recall all of your troops to the city.
- Make sure you are in the same State as the leader.
- Open your Backpack and select the Alliance Teleporter.
- Confirm the teleport when the game asks.
The leader does not use an Alliance Teleporter, because the item is for members who want to move toward the leader. The teleporter cannot enter a locked zone, and nothing moves you into fog. Your destination also needs 4 free squares on the map.
This is the cheaper way to follow the leader to a battle site when exact placement is not needed. If you want to stand on a specific spot beside the leader, the Advanced Teleporter does that. The alliance guide explains the alliance territory and the leader roles.
Territory Teleporter
The Territory Teleporter moves your city into alliance territory, and guides describe two ways it chooses the spot. In the current version, you pick a spot within alliance territory yourself, and using it directly from the Backpack also works when there is a vacant spot. Older guides describe it as sending you near the highest-level HQ, with the Tundra HQ first in line.
Look at the prompt in your game when you use it: if it lets you tap a spot, you are on the manual version. The Territory Teleporter comes from the Alliance Shop, and it fits regrouping after a battle or settling near allies early in the game.
Advanced Teleporter Price
The Advanced Teleporter is the flexible one, so it is also the one players pay for. Prices depend on where you buy it:
| Source | Price |
|---|---|
| Used without the item in your Backpack | 4,000 Gems |
| VIP Shop | 2,000 Gems |
| Alliance Shop, full price | 120,000 or 130,000 Alliance Tokens |
| Nomadic Merchant, Fortress Battle and State of Power rewards | Listed in the offer or reward |
Guides give two full prices for the Alliance Shop, so compare the number on the shop screen with the table. The shops also run discounts, so look before you pay full price. If an Advanced Teleporter is already in your Backpack, use it from there instead of confirming the 4,000-Gem option. The VIP guide covers the VIP Shop and how to keep VIP Time active.
The video shows how to open the alliance territory, press Teleport and move the city next to the alliance HQ, plus where to find teleporters in the shop.
Where to Get Teleporters
- Alliance Shop. The source for Advanced, Random, Alliance and Territory Teleporters, paid in Alliance Tokens.
- Nomadic Merchant. Sells Advanced and Random Teleporters.
- VIP Shop. Sells the Advanced Teleporter for Gems.
- Events and rewards. Fortress Battle and State of Power rewards can include an Advanced Teleporter.
- Rechargeable Random Teleporter. A built-in supply of up to 10 uses that fills back up over time when it is below the cap.
The resources guide shows where Alliance Tokens come from in the first place.
Teleport Restrictions
A teleport fails or gets blocked in a few cases. The table lists the limits that players hit most often:
| Limit | Applies to |
|---|---|
| Recall troops before teleporting | Alliance, Random and Territory Teleporters |
| Same State as the leader | Alliance Teleporter |
| Cannot enter a locked zone | Alliance Teleporter |
| Cannot enter enemy alliance territory | Advanced Teleporter |
| Cannot land in fog | Every teleporter |
| 4 free map squares needed | The target spot |
Troops are the most common reason a teleport will not start. For the Advanced Teleporter, some guides ask for a full recall and a player report says it can move with deployed troops, which then return to the city. Do not count on that for rallies or event maps. Recall first and teleport second.
Teleporting During Battle Events
Some events give their own teleport rules. In Foundry Battle you get one free Advanced teleport at the start of the battle, and then each extra use costs one more Advanced Teleporter than the previous one. You can pay for up to 5 uses during a free-teleport cooldown, and the price resets when the cooldown ends.
Those limits belong to the event and do not apply to your normal map teleports. The Foundry Battle guide and the Bear Hunt guide explain how teleporting fits into each event.
Teleport to Another State
Normal teleporters never leave your current State. To move to another State, you use State Transfer, which is a separate event and a different system with its own passes, cooldown and rules. The State Transfer guide explains it in full.
Frequently Asked Questions
How do I teleport to my alliance?
Use an Alliance Teleporter, which moves your city near your Alliance Leader even when the leader sits outside alliance territory. Recall your troops first, make sure you are in the same State as the leader, and open the teleporter from your Backpack. Alliance Teleporters come from the Alliance Shop.
How do I teleport to the alliance leader?
The Alliance Teleporter is the one that targets the leader. The leader does not use it, because the teleporter moves other members toward the leader. It cannot enter a locked zone, and your landing spot needs 4 free map squares. If you need an exact spot beside the leader, use an Advanced Teleporter instead.
Can I teleport to another State?
Not with a normal teleporter. Teleporters work inside your current State. Moving to another State goes through State Transfer, a separate event with its own Transfer Pass cost, cooldown and rules. The State Transfer guide covers how to do it.
How much does an Advanced Teleporter cost?
Using an Advanced teleport without the item in your Backpack costs 4,000 Gems. The VIP Shop sells the item for 2,000 Gems, and the Alliance Shop lists it between 120,000 and 130,000 Alliance Tokens at full price, so check shop discounts before you buy.
Do I need to recall my troops before teleporting?
Yes for the Alliance, Random and Territory Teleporters: recall your troops first. For the Advanced Teleporter, guides disagree. Some tell you to recall everything, while a player report says it works with troops out and that those troops return to your city. Recalling first is the safe habit for every type.
Where do I get teleporters?
The Alliance Shop sells all four types, and the Nomadic Merchant sells Advanced and Random Teleporters. The VIP Shop sells the Advanced Teleporter, and Fortress Battle and State of Power rewards can include it. Random Teleporters also come as rechargeable uses, up to 10 at a time.
