FIFA 17 Points - What's That?

fifa 17 points
You know what FIFA 17 Points are, right ? FIFA 17 Points are the FIFA currency used on FUT 16 Store exclusively to purchase packs and Draft tokens.

It is considered a virtual currency as it meets the requirements of the European Central Bank definition (type of unregulated, digital money, which is issued and usually controlled by its developers, and used and accepted among the members of a specific virtual community) and of the US Treasury definition (medium of exchange that operates like a currency in some environments, but does not have all the attributes of real currency). In the case of FIFA 16, gamers use real money to buy FIFA 17 Points and with them they purchase in-game items (packs).

FP were introduced on FIFA 12 Ultimate Team, exclusively for PC users. One year later, EA Sports added this currency to the other platforms – Playstation, XBox, iOS e Android – causing all the platforms use the same payment system. Before FIFA 17 Points existed gamers bought packs paying with Microsoft Points or with Playstation Network credits.

A huge part of EA profit is made thanks to FIFA 17 Points sales.

You can check how many FIFA 17 Points you have, looking to the top right hand corner of any Ultimate Team menu. If you never have bought FIFA 17 Points, you will see a '0'.
