Making big profits in FIFA Ultimate Team
Updated 27th March as we have now created a video for FIFA 13
This method requires – PATIENCE. These guides are not for desperate people wanting thousands instantly, getting annoyed at players not selling. They are for people wanting to make money in sensible ways. With this trick you are waiting for a human to make an error. It does happen as reported by our twitter followers after this page going live! We have also now released a video shown below on how it works.
Any player which has more than one In Form version of them can be used here but the most popular players are best. Make sure the position of the higher InForm is the same. In FIFA 13 EA started bringing them out in different positions such as Lucas shown here.
So for example Fellaini has an 82 rated InForm and an 83 rated Inform. We bought the 82 rated for 40k in an attempt to sell him for the 83 rated price. The key is to check the BIN (Buy It Now prices of the higher InForms and add your lower rated card with the same bin but with a less starting bid. Or to have an open bid which is much more than you paid but much less than the BIN of the other higher rated card on the market. We don’t recommend this with unpopular InForms but have seen IF 87 Alonso go for 900k so up to you how daring you get! Most popular will be famous players and those in the English Premier League. Watch the video below on how we sold Fellaini for profit and below that is when we tweeted out our 70k profit on Ramires in FIFA 12.
If video doesn’t display link to video on youtube – http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=EfBTV0vFb0U
Here is a link to our twitter announcement when we did this with the 81 Ramires. Bought for 43k and sold for 102k! http://twitter.com/#!/fifaaddiction/status/155432487261188097/photo/1
What I get lost with is selling the players because ppl won’t buy them lol.. See I play at night at around 10 or 11pm UK time and I list the players buy putting them up for 6 hours still doesn’t work for me 🙁
In Form trick is a lot harder in FUT15 and FUT16 as the positions change and the cards don’t always look similar.
since ea made the changes and added the price ranges i bought neymar for 415k the 87 rated one and now nobody is buying it even for the lowest price what should i do please help.
Use him? Great player.
i have 1m but don’t know where and when to invest?/// Plzz help
January 12th is first TOTY. Prices low when they come out.
Just did it with IF tevez on fifa 15! Sold in 2 days and i made an easy 170k profit! it actually works!
What website is cheapest to buy 1 mil on
We don’t buy coins you would have to look at youtubers recommendations and see which are cheapest.
I have 17k coins ATM, any good ifs to use this on?
Lots now they all cheap due to World Cup launch
Would it work to buy lower rated in form then waste contracts and then there is no way to see the difference
If you waste contracts people can still see the rating if click on player profile. You can try it with any informs and lower price = lower risk.
This is about IF Nasri….i want to buy him cause he is the only LM in City squad…Note that I want to make City Hybrid…..there are 150 starting price Nasri that are sold for 192k, a BIN price 182k and a 150 starting price that are not yet expired…so should I buy 180k BIN price or bidding wars with other players?I have about 156k right now …I just afraid that the bid wars have a third person jack bidding things…so what would u suggest? The BIN Nasri expired before the 150 starting price…the bid should at least 9/10 but the price are way 12/10 from the fixed price…what should I do?
He must be cheaper than that now. Players don’t usually sell lower than what people are bidding up to.
Tnx a lot! Bought an inform Cavani for 65 thousand and sold him for 200k!
This trick just worked for me made a quick 50K profit. Thanks for the tip guys. Will repeat it surely. Just as mentioned above it needs patience. Had to put the player up 5-6 times and bingo there it was the bid that gave any easy 50k profit. Another tip try to buy the first inform at a low price. So even if the trick doesnt work u can sell it off for a small profit.
Good work glad helped.
Do u have any tips on how to double a million coins quickly…….I know there are many ways but not sure which one to use.
Erm no otherwise we would do it every day and have 50 million coins.
Hi, which players have a double inform? Is there anyway to know because I am having trouble finding ones that do.
Not many. Because in 13 EA released different positions for players.
so i’ve just bought 83 weidenfeller for 32k, his 84 is going for 50 or so, i should put him up for 40 and hope, right? (this is just for clarity
You have to experiment with prices and keep checking what they are at. Releasing a video about it soon.
When will this video be posted
This weekend. Will tweet it out.
Can you also do this with upgrades
You can try, can work too.
Should you put a BIN on the player you are trying to trick people into buying
There are several ways to try. We are making a video on it 🙂
I’m quite good at it now made 220k from one player 🙂
Good work 🙂
it maybe a little late but i’ve got succes with this with Fellaini. Bought for 41k and sold for 99k, so a nice profit of 58k. It took me a total of 12 days but definately worth it.
Would it be good if this trick ins’t working to sell the players for a normal price before the TOTY comes out so I don’t make a massive lost when the market lowers?
Yes!
will 2nd IF Cazorla be a good to do this trick with? as christmas is coming up loads of packs will be bought and there will be more of the 2nd IF Cazorla than 1st. Plus 100k profit if done.
Is this best to do just before the new TOTW
Any time its all about luck really. Better when more of the higher In Form on market than lower.
would you recommend this with if fellaini? will it definetly work eventually and how long would you estimate it to work? is it worth a try
Depends on your luck. I got one as soon as the second IF came out. Still haven’t sold him. Others, however, have succeeded. So you can try it, but it comes with a risk.
but if the ppl do what i do and look at the issue date for the player they will see its not right one there buying so thats how i avoid it guys look out for the issue date
Not many people will do that. Good idea to check as a buyer though.
kwl thanks il hold on to them then but can you tell me how much better they are say i guy is 78 in form is he better than a rare 80 or even 83 player
any answer yet on this question as if they arnt that much better i wont bother going about getting them all as itys really waste of coins in the long run for a team
In Form players are a very strange type of beast. You will find you love some and hate others. All about opinion with in forms we usually don’t bother with them. However IF 96 Ronaldo in FIFA 12 was just stupidly good. Also loved the 2nd IF Ben Arfa in 12.
i have 4 in form players should i hold them or sell them now aquilani, inler, ruddy, fazio, oh wait 5 sigurdsson also
In form players usually rise in value weeks after they first came out.
is quagliarella a good player to try this on? has an 81 and 82 IFS. 82 sells for about 25k, only 10k above his 81, just wondering if this would still work if done a few times?
Do you have any tips when listing players from doing the double inform trick like what starting price to put them up for?
does it matter in which formation it is, does it work better in 4-1-2-1-2 than in 4-3-3?
Doesn’t matter just the more popular formations are higher prices.
I bought a 82 Fellaini for 75K by accident in midnight 🙁
Unlucky we feel your pain. That’s how we learned about it a year ago. Bought the wrong one 🙁 What we did do was sell it on though for same price so we realised not just us making that mistake! 🙂
don’t really like this one just because i’d hate to be the guy that gets done over lol
Which players in fifa 13 have a double if?
Thnxs
Only Fellaini and Hamsik so far. Better when lots of players to try it with.
+ Quagliarella
And Lucas Moura! LM/RW first player to get two IF cards
Bit harder when different positions as people search on the position a lot. Never seen it work on different positions.
Massive thanks guys but sorry to my victim. Just got up to 40k last night so thought I’d try it, bought a CM 1IF for 38k BIN. Sent straight up to auction for 78k start, no BIN and someones just bid 81k -auction still going too 🙂 – happy days.
Any luck ?? I did this as soon as Fellaini came out. So far nothing though…
Not tried yet as quite a few people seemed to be doing it. Will wait until lots of different ones on market.
Keep us up to date !! Thanks 😀
Keep us up to date !! Thnx 😀
2nd IF fellaini came out yesterday, would this be a good player to try the double inform trick on?
YES! Fingers crossed a few people make big profits.
9 not work
Too late in Ultimate Team to work well now. Will work again in FIFA 13 when market high again.
SIF coming up this day. Ill try the method 🙂
Shame in a different position 😉 Lucas released Left wing not right wing. Sure there will be one some time. Maybe it will work if lucky with wrong position. Wouldn’t advise tho.
Hey just wondering if this method is still effective? Iv had a few cards up for the last day or two and had no takers 🙁
Also noticed while searching for players to sell that you were listing a few of your cards with BINs? Does it work better if you list them up with BIN similar to the higher value card?
Thanks
It is harder to make coins at this stage of the season after so any months of FIFA. However it still does work we have been doing it with a couple of players. Try variations of bins the same and no bin. Also we might add some advice to look at the end times of players and try to match them so your player appears next to them in searches 🙂
I’ve had naldo 4-4-2 up for over a week 100k sp, no bn, and no bids, what am i doing wrong?
The 82 rated version you mean? The 84 version isn’t really selling so not a good time to try sell Naldo or do the in form trick with him. Try finding same formation card due to expire in an hour then put him up just after it slightly cheaper. Also make sure has lots of contracts.
Is there any point carrying on? Or should i just cut my losses and sell him at the normal 82 price?
As we said all about patience. We have had players on list for 6 weeks before. But then we not desperate and with right players make coins constantly.
Okay, you said 84 naldo isn’t selling well at the moment, so how do i know which if’s are selling well?
You don’t its all about the market who is doing well in real life and what tournaments are currently happening. If everyone knew it would be too easy to make coins.
Would it work with silver in forms, i.e rhodes?
Harder with less known players. Tho if lots more of the higher rated card should still work. Might take a while!
thanks, is Mirallas a good choice?
Fast so yeah go for it.
I may try and find someone with a greater difference between the two if’s in value. Do you have a list of if’s please? Thanks
IF players are on EA site http://www.ea.com/uk/football/news/totw-4apr-02
thanks, i’m on ps3, trying it with naldo.
got naldo up ps3 sp 100k, no bids mate, 4-4-2. Others are 130/140k
do you think i can use this trick with a 4-5-1 , 4-3-1-2, or a 4-2-3-1 formation?
i did it but i only make 250-500 coins profit. i got 40K, got any other tips for me? is there a better way to make profit for me or not?
hello, i want to try this but does het also work with IF players that have a rating of 81?
i can buy the player for 10k and for how much should i sell him? i can buy him 3 times.
greats from the Netherlands
It is more likely to work with higher price players but give it a go with one. Try a few prices and see if he sells.
Can we do this with the upgrades of players that just came out???
Not easy to do but possible. In Form players are better as people usually want them more.
Holy sht this works. poor suckers
what player did you do and what was your profit?
also how long did it take you to sell the player?
We don’t tell which players as everyone then goes to try same player like they did with Naldo. Then it stops working. Usually you will make 30-80k profit with these players. Just search through the in form players. Also you have to be patient. It relies on human error so could be an hour or a week to work.
Have had HUGE success with this trick in the past two weeks. I have been using this trick to make great, quick and easy profit. ALWAYS ALWAYS try to sell in the 4-1-2-1-2 formation as these will sell the best. I tried it with 4-4-2 and they took ages to sell 🙁
The players I have traded in so far have been : “removed so people can find their own” Decided not to use Naldo because he was shown in the demonstration above. Just be patient and put them up for about 10k below the lowest BIN and I found that it will sell within a week(a long time I know -_-). Just be perseverant and hopefully it will sell XD.
THANK YOU SOOO MUCH FIFADDICTION FOR POSTING THIS GUIDE!!!!!
Glad we helped. Try not to name the players you have been successful with. We are trying to help people learn. Look what happened to Naldo when we put him as an example!!
Sorry, I just saw all the comments where people were struggling to find players to trade with. The release of the UP players has stuffed up the market 🙁
Sorry… 🙁 release of the UP players has completely crashed the IF market
Not quite, sold my SIF Nani for 30k profit 😉 I put him up for sale when others higher value were set to end in an hour to compete directly against them. Another tip coming soon 😉 Is hard now though have to be careful.
hmmm, forgot about IF nani 🙁 going to spend my coins on a squad to play with ovr the weekend though so ill try your new tip next week 🙂 looking to try out TIF nene, his stats look amazing
Hey,
I absolutely love this site! But this trick isn’t doing its thing for me.
I’m trying this trick now for the past week and i didn’t sell my naldo, i tried with no BIN, with BIN(once). And put it like 20 times up.
On UltimateDB.nl i see Naldo’s sell for these high priced everyday. I don’t get why mine isn’t selling, can you maybe help me a little?
Thanks!
Stop changing the way you are trying to sell. Choose a price with no BIN and keep putting it back up. Is harder with Naldo as everyone trying it. Look for others.
what 5 players have you done the trick with?
And how many times have you succeed?
Has yours sold Isaac? I’m about to do one on ps3 now.
Just done it with Remy from Ligue 1 🙂 30k profit.
I have one up fp 3 days in 442 formation, should i change it? or just keep hope-ing?
Just keep putting back up, slightly changing price higher and lower each time but no buy it now price.
Cool. THank you will try.
what is a good price to buy Remy ?
You need to do a search filter for Remy and look at current prices.
I went by the guide, NO BIN… just a start price. Mine was fortunately in the 4-1-2-1-2 formation which deffinitely looks appealing. And it took approx 2 days I put him up for 6 hrs overnight and two 6hrs periods the next day and he sold miraclely.
haha lucky you 🙂 had mine up for 3 days on ps3 and still hasn’t sold -.- Hoping for a lucky break XD
Well done on following the guide. Lots of people seem to forget or don’t read the rules of formations and techniques we add on here.
This trick is working wonders aha. Just sold another first inform for the price of the 2nd. Picked up a INF remy for roughly 29k and somehow sold for 85 k. Thinking it was a great deal on a 2nd inform remy. Love this tip :).
I am off to try this one!
Did you put a BIN and how long was your auction?
Also what formation? Does it matter if its a crappy one?
BIN? or Open Bid no BIN?
Picked one up for 35K, Listing at 85K STarting no BIN.
Will report back.
I am thinking of trying a tactic I hear alot about but never have given the time.
The last minute trading.
I have Ibra (88), SIF Ramires (82), SIF Nene (87) & IF Naldo (82) IF Balotelli (83) & 200K.
I was going to try and nick a TOTY player.
Thoughts?
I’ve seen a tactic where the seller has disguised the lower level inform by making his contracts run out, then using a stat boost card. Do you think this method would work or does it just draw more attention to NOT choose that card?
how would you be able to put up a player with no contracts??
Huh? You just play them in games till their contracts run out, then when you put them up for sale, instead of having their overall rating it will have a red contract icon?
ive tried that before but when i do it wont let me put them up because they have no contracts and its the same with injuries
Can put any player up for sale with no contract. Very unlikely to sell however unless much cheaper than others available. Can’t sell a player who is injured.
Draws more attention to it so less likely to sell. Never seen one sell.
when you say unpopular IF..is that IF Alonso you mentioned one of them??
He isn’t as popular because no pace. All players with higher pace are always more popular on FIFA. Any player with around 79 or less pace we would call unpopular.
i bought a 1st IF alonso just to find out he isnt a popular IF..what you think i should do..i bought him yesterday and had him up for auction and have been getting offers but want coins more…what do you think i should? should i sell him cheap or just hold in there?? any advice would be great thanks
Always hold in there! Might take a week to sell him but we never back down on prices when trying to sell. Patience is key.
ha! some guy traded me an 82 naldo, 2 informs, 1 gold rare and 5k for my 82 naldo
Nice guide 🙂 Funny how ppl actually fall for this one
Have you guys ever considered maybe doing a squad builder series? Need some inspiration for my new squad. Got about 600k to spend, any ideas?
Thanks for the guide
Lots more to come on Ultimate team sections. A few more blogs first on ways to make more money.
Looking forward to them 🙂
I’m going to try this technique with IF Nene as SIF just got released. I’ll post my results.
Oh shit, after giving up with selling my Ramires, I sold him for a few k profit and thought id choose a player who not many people were doing. Now i realise the player i chose was the one you demonstrated this with! 😛 Oh god
Nice guide, surprised ppl fall for the trick though 🙂
Maybe start up an ultimate team squad builder blog as I’m sure many people would be interested in that?
Also I need some help…I’ve got 600k to spend and need some ideas, currently using a BPL squad.
Cheers
I am coming to the conclusion that there must be more idiots to take advantage of on xbox than ps3 😛 has anyone had any luck with this on PS3?
Much larger FIFA community UK wise in our opinion. On both and PS3 market is much slower in comparison to Xbox.
Oh well. Fortunately I’m in no rush anyway as I’ve got other things going on atm so it’s all good 😛
For all you guys saying it doesn’t work be patient. That’s all it takes I just sold one. Only for the 68,000 k I put as the start price but hey that’s over 20,000 k profit on one player.
Working for anyone still? I got mine at 99K. SOld one at that. Not sure if it will work again. Thoughts?
Put 2 up. 1 x 67 no BIN and 99,500. No luck for 2 days.
Worked for fifa fifa fifa the prices of In Forms change often and some people have tried to fix the 82 price at around 65k. Will amend the guidance as this affects what we are doing!
Just sold one for 99,500K. Unexpected and so AWESOME…for me anyway.
im playing on xbox and it doesntwork…ive bought 3 naldo for 30k and im selling them for 67k help pls
he only posted this yesterday so you can only have been doing it for a day max? 😛
See post below this 😉 Try find your own In form to do it with, Since we added this the prices of Naldo have gone wild with people trying to price lock the 82 version. That means our 67k would need to be higher and less likely to work.
thank you for this. sold one for 105k, bought for 30k. took less than an hour
Surely, if you had the time, you would be better putting the auction up for an hour at a time? Or is there reasoning behind using 6 hours intervals?
Usually looks better at 3 and 6 hours as that implies a long bidding time for the high bids to come in. People see it early and bid early. Not many people would bid with half an hour left as why has nobody else bid on it. Can be done but not as successful.
haha thx a lot man can u name some more players you think will be good to do this on and yes is it better to do it on under 100k players or more expensive ones?
Can be used on any but you have to be patient. We tried it on IF Van Persie and it was a struggle to sell as there were never many for sale of either 87 or 88 version so easy to spot. However the 87 version went up in price as he kept scoring for Arsenal so it wasn’t a big gamble. Bought for 200k sold for 280k.
Haha clever idea. Gotta feel sorry for the buyer tho when they realise theyve paid over double what they should have 😛
good work
