If you’re new to FC, you have to complete specific Objective Groups to access the Transfer Market and Champions. 
  1. 1
    Go to Ultimate Team™.
  2. 2
    Select Objectives.
  3. 3
    Complete The Journey Begins to unlock First Team Dreams.

    Complete First Team Dreams to unlock Rising Through the Ranks.
  5. 5
    Complete Rising Through the Ranks to unlock access to the Transfer Market and Champions.
Your access might take some time to become available after completing Rising Through the Ranks.

When does the Transfer Market unlock after completing the Objectives?

After you complete the Objective Groups, you’ll be granted full Transfer Market access within 48 hours  if you play on PC, or 24 hours on other platforms.During that time period, you’ll have access to list Items on the Transfer Market, but won’t be able to search the Transfer Market or perform Bid/Buy Now actions until the time period has elapsed.

When will access to Champions unlock after I complete the Objectives?

If you’ve already met the other Champions entry requirements, including Division Rivals progression and Champions Qualification Points, you’ll be granted access within 48 hours if you play on PC, or 24 hours on other platforms.

Why do I need to complete Objectives to access the Transfer Market? 

Limiting Transfer Market access for new accounts helps protect the economy from potential rule-breaking activity, while ensuring that actual new players are introduced to Ultimate Team™. Completing Graduated Access doesn’t automatically unlock access on the Web and Companion apps. To learn more, check out our article about Transfer Market access on the Web and Companion Apps.
