How do I build my FIFA coins?
Pure and simple, the easiest way to build is to buy FIFA coins. Of course, you can spend your time building them up using a variety of trading methods which we have and will detail in future articles. Once a player has obtained enough FIFA coins, most take the lottery route and buy packs in the hope of getting an expensive player to sell on the Transfer Market (we have seen people get very lucky and make a few million coins from a single 7,500 coin Gold pack).

This is also the case with packs, as packs provide a lower return on average than the price of the pack (unless you are using FUT points to purchase them). Events released by EA, and obviously FUTers earning coins then pump coins back into the economy (market).
