FC 26: How to Unlock Tiered Access in the EA FC 26 Transfer Market

Like EA FC 25, EA FC 26 introduces restricted access to the Transfer Market, preventing some players from immediately using the feature. Specifically, new players or those with account issues will need to go through a specific mechanism known as "Tiered Access" to access the Transfer Market. Below is an explanation of this mechanism and a detailed guide on how players can unlock the Transfer Market feature.

What is Tiered Access in FC 26?

"Tiered Access" is a feature designed to protect the integrity of the FUT market by restricting immediate access to the Transfer Market for certain accounts. Initially available only on PC in FC 25, it will be expanded to all platforms in FC 26.

This restriction primarily targets new players entering FUT mode or accounts that have been penalized for inappropriate behavior. For example, players who have engaged in illegal gold purchases, used automated tools to underpay players, or engaged in inappropriate trades may be flagged. EA states that this mechanic is intended to "protect the market economy from potential abuses while introducing genuine new players to the FUT ecosystem in a more controlled manner." However, players with no prior abuses are likely to gain market access shortly after entering the game.

How do I unlock the transfer market in FC 26?

To access the transfer market, players must complete a set of tasks called "Baseline Objectives." These tasks can be found in the "Objectives" section of the FUT mode. Completing these tasks not only increases account reputation but also earns in-game rewards.

In FC 25, players were required to complete ten simple tasks, such as participating in five FUT matches. These tasks not only helped familiarize themselves with the game mode but also served as a way to build their activity record in the system. After completing all objectives, players still had to wait for a certain period of time before officially unlocking market access. EA states that this waiting period is closely tied to player behavior. In addition to console and PC versions of the game, access to the web app and companion app also requires additional requirements.

Players should consider the following key factors:

Whether their account maintains a good record of behavior and adheres to EA FC User Guidelines;

Whether they frequently switch between multiple FUT accounts on the same device;

The number of days a player is active in Ultimate Team;

An active day is defined as three full matches played within the UTC time zone while logged into the website or app;

To facilitate tracking of game time and completion, it is recommended that players enable the EA FC Playtime feature to understand their time spent and activity levels in FUT mode.

Overall, the "tiered access" system in FC 26 is designed to maintain fair play and a healthy ecosystem. While it creates a barrier for newcomers or users who violate regulations, serious players who diligently complete basic objectives and maintain a healthy account will eventually unlock transfers.

Also, players looking to quickly strengthen their roster can consider using FC 26 Coins wisely to accelerate team building and enhance their competitive experience while ensuring compliance. With the start of the new season, a comprehensive understanding of these mechanics will help every player get off to a faster start and seize the opportunity in FUT mode.
