Let’s take a deeper look to what’s new this year:
LEADERBOARDS
For the first time ever, you can stay up-to-date on your competitive progress on the Leaderboards. Until now, you were ony able to do it on your console, but this year you can do it on the FUT Companion App.
WEEKLY REWARDS
In other years, you had to open your console just to redeem your weekly rewards. EA added that feature to the Companion App while FUT 18 was still live, but this is the first game release where it is possible to do it from the first day. Now you can claim your Squad Battles, Division Rivals, and FUT Champions weekly rewards without having to open your console.
ADVANCED SEARCH OPTIONS
Whether you’re building a new squad or completing a Squad Building Challenge, added Advanced Filters streamline the process of finding players within your club. These search filters include the option to filter by Most Recent Items, Quick Sell Value and Tradeable/Untradeable status.
MANAGE PACK ITEMS
A completely redesigned item flow allows you to manage your new items much more quickly, so that you can spend more time building your squad. Newly packed items are placed directly into your club, with a more user-friendly interface that helps you decide whether to keep, quick sell or transfer list items.

FIFA 19 Companion App Early Access
What you need to know about the FIFA 19 Companion App early access
Returning FUT 18 players whose accounts are in good standing can create their FUT 19 Club, start trading, and claim returning user packs. Early access to the Web and Companion Transfer Market ends at 12:00 a.m. GMT on October 10. After that, you’ll need to log in to FUT 19 on your console or PC at least once to continue using both apps.
Early access on the FIFA 19 companion app is not available to everyone. You need to fullfil these conditions:
☑️ You must have created a FUT Club before August 1, 2018, to get early access to the FUT 19 Web and Companion apps.
☑️ Your FUT 18 account must still exist.
☑️ Your account needs to be in good standing. If you were banned or had other actions taken on your account in FUT 18, you won’t get early access.
Rewards are based on your account’s good standing in the game, along with your player history and engagement. This is why your rewards may be different from your friend’s. Besides that, returning user rewards are tied to your specific console account. So, if you switch platforms or create a new account on the same platform, your rewards won’t carry over.
FIFA 19 Companion App Menus
Understand how to use the FIFA 19 Companion App
The FIFA 19 Companion App features five main areas that you can access anytime on the left side of your screen:
1 SQUAD
Prepare for your next big match while away from your console. Manage your Formations, Players, Managers, and Consumables. Concept Squads allow you to plan your dream team with all Players in FUT.
2 SQUAD BUILDING CHALLENGESs
Exchange Players from your Club by building unique Squads and meeting the challenge requirements. Once your Squad is complete, submit it to exchange your Players for exciting rewards, such as different SBC Players, Packs, Coins, and more. Complete full challenges on the Companion App and claim your rewards right away, or plan your Squad on mobile and finish it on your console later. New Challenges will be released throughout the year, so check back often!
3 TRANSFER MARKET
Never miss out on an important transfer and keep tabs on market activity. The Transfer Market lets you list items from your club and bid on new Players, Consumables, and everything needed to build your Ultimate Team! Returning FUT 18 users will have full access to the Transfer Market when the FIFA 19 Companion app launches. New FUT 19 users will need to play a few games on FUT console before access to the Transfer Market is unlocked on the Companion App.
4 FUT STORE
Build out your Club with Packs that can be purchased with Coins or FIFA Points. The FIFA 19 Companion App ensures you’ll never miss a special Pack offer or lightning round.
5 CLUB
View and manage all the Players, Consumables and Club Items in your FUT Club directly from the Companion App.

FIFA 19 Companion App Download
How to get the FIFA 19 companion app?
Please make sure your device meet the requirements and remember that this app requires you to have an Origin account connected to FIFA 19 (Xbox One, PlayStation 4 or PC). To use the FIFA Ultimate Team features in this app, you must have a FIFA Ultimate Team Club within FIFA 19 and must have played a number of games to unlock transfer market functionality via the app. Note that you’ll need to start on the web app before you can use the mobile app.
If you used the FIFA Companion App for FUT 18, you probably have realized that the app was offline a couple of days to turn your app into FUT 19. After the update, which is automatic, no longer is possible to use this App to manage your FUT 18 club just like it happens with the Web App too.
