Trade and turning a profit before the release | FUT FIFA 17 Guide

Last update: 17 October 2016

The best players in FIFA Ultimate Team cost hundreds of thousands of coins. Earning them solely through playing matches would be very time consuming. It is easier to earn some extra money to purchase them by means of trade. This is what this chapter is dedicated to.

The basic principles of trade

Tax

To make a profit, you need to sell a card for more than you bought it for. Remember, however, that for each card sold you will only receive 95% of the price. The remaining 5% is a tax. There won't be any problems if you buy a card for 1000 coins and sell it for 1100. You're still 45 coins ahead. But you must take this into account when dealing with bigger sums, because if you buy a card for 100 000 and you sell it for 101,000, then you won't gain a thousand, but you will actually be more than 4,000 coins in the red.

Why?

You bought the card for 100,000 coins.

You sold it for 101,000 coins.

You receive 95% of that, leaving you with 95,950 coins.

You have 4050 coins less than you had at the beginning.

Therefore, before each transaction, think about how much you can sell a player for and if it will really yield a profit.

FUT Web App

FUT Web App is a very useful trading tool - Trade and turning a profit before the release | FUT - FIFA Ultimate Team - FIFA 17 Game Guide

FUT Web App is a very useful trading tool. You can use it on the following website: www.easports.com/fifa/ultimate-team/web-app or via its phone App. It makes the task so much easier for traders, because you can check auctions as quickly as you can e.g. check your Facebook, and put your cards back on auction at any given time. Web app is also a much more convenient alternative for the in-game transfer market.

Checking prices

Checking the price of a given player is the key to making a profit - Trade and turning a profit before the release | FUT - FIFA Ultimate Team - FIFA 17 Game Guide

Checking the price of a given player is the key to making a profit. If you are browsing the transfer market and you come across an interesting player, use the "compare prices" option. You will then be shown all of the available cards on the market. Then simply browse through them and see which "buy now" price is the lowest. If there are several pages of cards and looking for the lowest price would take too long, go back to the search, type in the name of the player you are looking for and the maximum "buy now" price. You should then reduce the price, until there are no longer any results to the search.

Turning a profit before the release

About a week before the release of the game the FUT Web App will become available. This is a platform where you can buy and sell players and other cards. This period is perfect for trading, as it allows you to begin your adventure with the game with a particular team.

At the beginning it would be best for you to trade cheap silver cards from the first and second English league and bronze players from those leagues who have at least 80 pace. Do not make a risk, bid them up to 300 coins and sell each for 200-300 more. You need to sell a lot of cards to make a profit, but as you get comfortable using it, you will find yourself using the web app several times a day for just a few minutes.

Club items, such as crest and kit of the biggest clubs also make for excellent trades. Search for items of teams such as FC Barcelona, ??Real Madrid, Chelsea, Manchester City, Manchester United, Arsenal, Liverpool, PSG, Bayern, Dortmund, Juventus, AC Milan. They usually cost 1000 coins or more, but you can sometimes pick them up for as little as 300 coins through an auction.

This makes up half of the plan. There are no magic tricks here. Trading requires, above all, time and experience. Do not delude yourself that you will never lose, because it happens to the best. Sometimes you have to lose a few coins on one player and bounce back by investing in another. Respect small profits, even 150 coins earned per card, multiplied by the number of transactions per day will give you a large profit. It only depends on how much time you spend on trading.

Single use cards

Three days before the release start buying up all of the single use cards, which people do not use before the game comes out, but they do get them while opening their packs. It's mostly contract, healing and fitness cards that you should concern yourself with. These are the cards that people do not need when they cannot play matches. People will sell them for pennies, for which you should absolutely buy them. After the release their price will spike dramatically, and you will sell all these cards with excellent profits.
