FIFA 13 Ultimate Team Money Guide


So Fifa 13 has been out a couple of months and seems to be another extremely popular addition to, what seems to be, the majority votes favourite Football game. This year gave birth to another round of the Ultimate Team game and web app and I’ve been assembling some good coin making ideas to keep you ahead of the game and also to stretch you to the difficult ‘85 million pound club’ achievement.

1)       Cheap Gold Players
The sure fire way of making money is to dip in an spend a really small amount on a gold player (300 coins is a good maximum). Try then selling them at a buy now for 500 coins and if they don’t sell then push them on the quick sell option and try again. As I said, this method is full proof as you will always make your money back. I tend to stick with a specific formation when running this method as you slowly get to know the prices players go for and how to undercut the competition.

2)       Dream Team Players
Another sure fire tactic is to pick up a dream team player for less then 10,000 coins. Their quick sale option is around the same so the loss is negligible if you cannot push them on for a slight profit. The same rules as the above apply here and should be used once you’ve built up enough of a money box to start playing about.

3)       Bronze Brazilian
One of the best tactics I have been using is to pick up cheap bronze Brazilian players. These often attract a lot of attention and can create a bit of a 59th minute auction. You need to search, if possible, for players with 4* skills, (checking Futwiz.com will help identify these) and you will surely be able to make a profit on these players and if not they make a great addition to your low level team for the quick win tournaments.

4)       Undercutting prices
A great option for making money, once you have some money behind you, is to find a player that only ever has a small number of sales available. Find the cheapest one and buy them, then slightly raise your price to that of the next cheapest and sell on. The margins are small but as you get into the 5* players this tactic can easily bag you a few thousand coins in per sale.

5)       Price Fixing
It is possible to artificially increase a players buy price but basically owning all of the players on the market. The best ones to use are cheap and fast or 5* skilled player as these usually generate a bit of interest amongst other users. If you’ve got a big enough pot you can do this with the superstars but I started with Maggio (the solid, speedy Italian right-winger) and grab about 10 cards for 3 or 4 thousand each. I then waited for an ideal opportunity to sell them on, basically when there weren’t a lot of purchase options on the market and booted them all in a 6.5k. After all had been sold I had around a 15000 profit. This is especially good to use while the game is in its early stages or when a player has a good game in real life. Look at Giroud – not a single sole wanted him two weeks ago but now you can knock him on at 2,500 at least – at the time of writing of course.

The real winning strategy though is to look often and have a little bit of luck. Patience really is a virtue as there are cheap players going every minute on the market, all you need to do it be there when the timer runs out. A quick win is for formation cards which can be picked up really cheap and sold on at a profit if someone specifically needs it for a player.

It’s great to hear how other people make money on the Fifa 13 Ultimate Team so let me know on Twitter or in the comments section below what you think or how you’ve made money in the past. If they’re good enough I’ll put them on this list with a credit to you….

6)       Play to Gain
This involves harvesting the Bronze Starter pack you receive and playing as much as possible to raise some funds. If completed early on a bronze contract can still go for 200-250 coins when a bronze pack itself only costs 400 coins to buy. This is a great idea for creating a reasonable ‘funds package’ to start any of the above methods.
