In FIFA Ultimate Team, coins are king. They are used to purchase everything that is available in the mode, except that card packs can be purchased with FIFA Points. This means that if you are looking to build a team without using real money to buy packs, you will need to invest your hard earned coins to see any payoffs.
However, that doesn't mean that playing matches and earning reward coins is the only way to make money in the game. Many of the best Ultimate Team players create their amazing squads without spending a dime, and use instead the often unpredictable nature of the transfer market to fund their teams.
Most of the time it just takes time and effort to scour the market for the best deals, but if you're willing to put in the time, you'll never need to open your wallet for points again. FIFA.
Here are tips for making money on the transfer market in FIFA 21 Ultimate Team.
Check value trends before you sell a superstar
One of the best tools for playing in the markets when it comes to Ultimate Team is the FIFA FUTHead community page, which gathers mode data in one place. While most of the player card information found on this site may be theoretical in the game, there are no statistics regarding price trends that you can find on the Transfer Market page.
This means that if you want to check the current prices of a card that you think has a high value, you have to scroll through the countless cards being auctioned off in order to get an idea of what they are worth.
Instead, keep an eye on the page of the player you want to sell on FUTHead. Here, the website analyzes data from the transfer market engine to calculate the lowest price each card actually sells for. Just like when playing stocks, prices are constantly fluctuating, but reading the changes will help you know when to sell a player and when to hold them.
Real-world performance may affect value
When it comes to research trends for FIFA, nothing spikes more than a player who has just put in a real good performance for his team. If a player hits a hat trick, you can bet that will cause players to immediately seek them out in FIFA Ultimate Team to see if they can find a way to fit them into their squad.
As a result, players who make an impression in the real world will make a similar impression on Ultimate Team and, in turn, drive their value up. Usually this spike doesn't last long, but if you are able to buy players who are generally high in value and known for their consistent real-world performance in the biggest European leagues, you can usually surf the peak for extra profit.
A prime example of a player this can be applied to is Leicester City's Jamie Vardy. He's very quick and is a great finisher, but more importantly, he regularly scores goals in real life against teams considered larger than his own. Keep it in your pocket until it performs well in the real world and you might be able to take advantage of the increased player searches.
Take advantage of fast sellers
Everyone has to start somewhere when it comes to building their teams. Especially in the beginning, if you've made a commitment to avoid the actual spending on FIFA Points, then things will be tough. However, even cheaper players can help you earn a lot of money.
When registering a card, you have the option of placing it on the market for different time periods. Players looking to make quick sales of unwanted players from packs are usually going to put the player on the market just above their quick sell value. By targeting these players you can have them used cheaply for your squad, or just put them back on sale, but with an attractive buy now it's worth more than your purchase value.
For example, getting a player rated at 76 with a winning bid of 350 can then be relisted with a buy now priced at 500-600 coins, which is often low enough for other players to take to avoid missing out. or wait for long periods before the auction ends.
By using this method with a lot of cards, you should be making money in small increments. As you earn money for high level players, you can start to develop into high value cards.

If you really want to make money for your club, you have to use more than the services available in the game. You have two apps at your disposal, the web app and the mobile app, and both are better options. when you use the transfer market than the game itself.
In the game, many menus are not dynamic. This means that if you are on your transfer list page when buying or selling a player, it will not refresh on the page and you will have to exit and re-enter the page to see updates. Sometimes it can be processed on the same screen, but it is very unreliable.
With both apps, they work with the game engine at a much faster rate and without needing to come back to update. It should also mean that you lose last minute auctions less often because of it. It's also much more flexible and faster in apps, while switching between them and checking for trends, such as those mentioned in the first two points on this list, can be done at a faster pace. You can even switch between accounts if you play the game on multiple platforms.
A word of warning for those who use the browser web application. We do not recommend using a third party program to help you buy and sell players in the game as this carries a potential risk of your club being disabled or removed altogether due to system exploitation. Use them at your own risk.
The attributes that gamers value the most
Not all top rated players are worth as much as each other. For example, Harry Kane is an 88-rated forward for Tottenham Hotspur, with attributes of dribbling, physique and passing all rated above 80 and shooting at 91. However, the value placed on cards is often tied to strengths. identified in the game engine, which generally promotes the player's speed and ability with the ball.
In other words, since the pace and ranking of skill moves is highly regarded among players in the game, Kane, whose pace is 68 and only has three star skill moves, will be rated more. low in the market compared to someone like Manchester United ranked 84. forward Anthony Martial, who has 89 gait, four-star skill moves and similar dribbling points.
Typically, players with higher stat points in rhythm and dribbling, and 4-star or higher skill moves will fetch the highest market prices. This in turn means that their prices have the best chance of skyrocketing, and as such even the lowest rated cards with high numbers in these three areas are great options for making a profit.
Not from one of the Big Five? No need
When it comes to which cards people actually want to buy frequently, you're almost exclusively limited to the five leagues: Premier League, Serie A, La Liga, Bundesliga, and Ligue 1. Outside of team building challenges , where you might see some small price increases on players from smaller leagues, very rarely do the prices go high enough to invest in a player outside of the European elite divisions.
This is due to the attention paid to these leagues in the real world. They make up the biggest part of the fan base, and unless players are looking to combine players from national teams or create hybrids, the majority of teams will be made up of players from those regions. Unless there is a dynamite player whose stock is growing quickly with the right attributes, if they are not in the top five leagues, we suggest you ignore them.
