FIFA 22 CARRYOVER
FIFA 22 will not allow you to carryover and maintain most of your FIFA 21 progress.
TRANSFERABLE ITEMS
When you move to a new title, you can maintain part of your progress from the previous game.
FIFA Points
FIFA Points are an alternative to coins that are used to purchase FUT packs in the store or enter FUT Drafts.
If you don’t intend to spend all your FIFA Points on FUT 21, you can transfer them to FUT 22 until December 31, 2021. You can even buy some by the end of FUT 21 so you can use it in the FUT 22 release date, since it won’t be purchasable during the FIFA 22 Web App Webstart period, except if you have an EA Play membership. However, this is a one-time transfer, so you need to be careful when you start the game for the first time.
FIFA Points are FIFA 22 carryover items but can only be shared between same consoles. For PC, Point balances transferred to FIFA 22 can only be used in FIFA 22.

Established Date
Whether you are a FUT Founder or your club was established this time last year, your established date will remain the same in FIFA 22 or in any other title.
There are many complains about established dates, so if your date was wrong in FUT 21, it will still be wrong in FUT 22. This is particularly frustrating for FUT Founders, players who are playing since the first FUT edition.

NON-TRANSFERABLE ITEMS
When you move to a new title, you cannot maintain most of your progress from the previous game.
Coins
FUT Coins
FIFA Coins are gained by playing FUT game modes and as in-game rewards. By playing FIFA 22, your coins will be reset to zero.
If you didn’t know that coins can’t be transferred to FUT 22, then you must be very disappointed. We’ve all been there so don’t worry, you eventually get over it. Plus buying items won’t help since they can’t be transferred as well. Don’t know what to do with the coins you’ve been arduously collecting for a year? Give them to someone you know who will not play FIFA 22.

Items
FUT Items
Items are used in FUT to build your squad and give support to it. Unfortunately, none of your cards in FIFA 21 will be carried over to FIFA 22. This is true to any type of items: players, staff, consumables and stadium items.
If you’ve got Eusebio on your team and you’re buying FIFA 22, then it’s time to say goodbye to him. None of the cards you currently have in your club will be transferred to FUT 22.

Packs
Unopened Packs and Unassigned Items
Unopened packs and unassigned items in FIFA 21 will not be transferred to FIFA 22.
Don’t save your Jumbo Rare Players Packs to be opened later if your season is coming to an end. At least, try to find out which cards you would pack.

FUT XP
FUT XP
By completing Objectives, you earn FUT XP that will unlock a mix of rewards, like packs, players, club customization content or other items to help progress your club such as match coin boosts. As you level up throughout the Season, the bigger both the challenges and rewards will become.
It is important to note that this type of XP is specific to the Ultimate Team mode. You can check it on the upper right corner of any FUT screen. As you probably know, FUT XP resets at the end of every single season, so naturally, it isn’t transferred to new titles.

History
Match History and Records
Your match records and history will be reset in FIFA 22, no matter how they were in your FIFA 21 records.
Your Wins/Draws/Losses history will be lost when you stop playing FIFA 21. It won’t count towards FIFA 22. And even if you decide to keep playing it, EA will put an end to it in less than 3 years because, well, they’d just rather not keep spending money on servers few people will playing at. In their words, they do this so they’re able to ‘enhance the user’s experience‘. Better just go take a screenshot then, huh?

Club Data
FUT Club Data
Your FUT Club data and records will be reset too. You won’t be able to carryover data such as your club statistics, leaderboard information, FUT Champions Points, Weekend League and SBC progress.
How difficult was it to reach the Leaderboard TOP 100? It’s time to take a screenshot or this awesome deed will be easily forgotten.

Division
Current Division
When you start FUT Rivals for the first time, it is asked you to complete five matches. Based on your results, a new division will be assigned to you.
Do you think that reaching Division 1 Rivals was difficult? If you’ve done it, you’re probably constantly struggling not to get relegated to division 2. What if you get relegated to several divisions below? This is what will happen when you start FIFA 22 Ultimate Team. If you think you’ll just humiliate your opponents, just forget it. Everyone starts Seasons on the middle divisions: the good and the bad players.

Trophies
PlayStation Trophies and Xbox Achievements
FIFA 21 and FIFA 22 are different games, so you won’t be able to carry over your consoles achievements and trophies for the new title.

Q: How Exactly Can I Transfer my FIFA Points to FIFA 22?
A: The first time you log in with the same account, the system recognizes you and you’ll see a pop-up that gives you the option to transfer your points. You can accept it or delay that operation. From the moment you perform this transfer, you no longer will receive this message again and FIFA Points purchased in FUT 21 will not be transferred to FIFA 22 Ultimate Team anymore. This is still the case if you’re an EA Play member. If you play FIFA 22 on EA Play and transfer your points but don’t buy the full game, you won’t get your points back on FIFA 21.

Q: Why is not Possible to Maintain my Cards and Coins?
A: Basically for three reasons:
1 Challenge
Playing the same game all over again may not be very stimulating. It’s true that you may already have a good team, but going back to a fresh team can be much more interesting than it seems to be, especially when everyone is doing the same. This year you’ve probably made a few mistakes and now it’s time to take advantage of what you’ve learned. It’s an opportunity to do it the right way and reach perfection. Every year, the FIFA community is accepting better this rule. Otherwise, in FIFA 25 every squad would have Messi, Pelé and Ronaldo.
2 Money
As players, there is the motivation for building a whole new team. However, for EA Sports, the only true reason to carry on is money. It’s not only about forcing players to go for the new packs. It’s a completely new world for the FUT gaming community: everything loses its value from a moment to another; all the old cards and coins go to waste. FIFA digital game sales’ annual growth rates have increased and today EA Sports makes more money selling FUT packs than the actual game. This is their business.
3 Logistic Problems
If people would keep in FUT 22 everything they had back in FUT 21, there would be other problems concerning the game’s mechanics. For example: where’s the fair play when you start the game having millions of coins while others have nothing? It’s really necessary that the coin flow is managed so we can have a fair, competitive and sustainable game. And this can only be done once we start a new game.

Q: What Should I Do to Coins and Items Now That I’m Moving to FIFA 22?
A: Most players use them until the very end but there are also people that decide to spend them all in packs – fair enough.
Those coins can also be converted to real money. If you meet someone who will not buy FIFA 22, offer him your coins. He will certainly be very thankful. Bear in mind that very few people go back to play an old FIFA after they’ve started playing the new one.

Q: Does It Still Make Sense to Buy the New FIFA?
A: After so many disadvantages you may be wondering if it’s worth it or not getting the new title. If you’re a fan of this series, it’s safe to say that we recommend it. Besides the renewed experience inside the pitch, you’ll be able to build your team based on what’s going on in real-life football. The transfer market will allow new combinations of players and their ratings will be updated. Before you know you’ll forget what was left behind.

Q: How Cross-Platform Carryover Works?
A: At this moment, Cross-Platform carryover is not available in FUT. For example, if you were playing FIFA 22 on PlayStation 5 and now you are switching to Xbox Series X to start playing FIFA 22, your in-game items and data won’t be transferred to the new game even when you’re using the same email account on both platforms.
Your in-game data and items will be available and transferable to the new FIFA game only on the same console. Keep in mind that this situation can eventually change in the future. According to EA, “allowing our players to play against each other on whichever platform they play is a long-term goal of ours. At this moment we don’t have any news, but we’re continuing to investigate its integration and will share any updates when we have them”.

Q: How Cross-Generation Carryover Works?
A: As it happened last year, all progress you make or content you acquire within FUT (including players, items, coins, FIFA Points, match record, and leaderboard placement), as well as all progression in VOLTA FOOTBALL will transfer from PlayStation 4 to PlayStation 5 and back, or Xbox One to Xbox Series X and back. Progress within all other modes including Online Seasons, Co-Op Seasons, Career Mode, Pro Clubs, etc. will be specific to the console you are playing on and won’t transfer between consoles.
