How to Acquire TOTW Cards

There are multiple ways to acquire TOTW cards in FC 25, each requiring a different form of investment:

• Purchase from the Transfer Market

• Open Packs During TOTW Availability

• Complete Squad Building Challenges (SBCs)

The transfer market offers immediate access but requires coins. Pack opening introduces a chance, but can be done with earned packs or FC Points. SBCs provide guaranteed TOTW cards but consume club players. Strategic players often combine these methods, buying during market dips, saving packs for TOTW releases, and completing value SBCs when available.

Final Words

TOTW cards are integral to FC 25's Ultimate Team experience. These weekly special items reward real-world performances with enhanced in-game stats. Staying aware of Wednesday release times, exploring all acquisition methods, and understanding how these cards impact the transfer market gives you a competitive edge.
