FIFA 22 TOTS Token Swaps explained
FIFA 22 TOTS features the fan favorite Token Swaps system, here’s everything you need to know about how it works.
FIFA 22’s TOTS features the Token Swaps system which has been a major feature in FUT promos this year. Here’s everything we know about FIFA 22 TOTS Token Swaps and an explanation of how it works.
Team of the Season is always the biggest promo of the year, as the very best players from LaLiga, Ligue 1, and other top leagues over the past season are given massively upgraded cards.
For FIFA 22, EA are kicking things up a notch, as a Tokens system features for the first time in the event. First introduced as part of Icon Swaps, Tokens Swaps have played a huge role in FUT this year, including promos like Future Stars and FUT Birthday.
But how does FIFA 22 TOTS Token Swaps work? Here’s everything we know so far.
FIFA 22 TOTS Token Swaps start date
After EA confirmed that TOTS Token Swaps would arrive in FUT, the program started on May 6 in FIFA 22. EA later confirmed that as of May 20 you’ll be able to redeem all of the tokens you collect between May 6 and May 27.

They also hinted that fans are in store for a second swaps program that would kick-off when the first one comes to a close on May 27. This second program will likely focus on a combination of LaLiga, Ligue 1, and Serie A rewards.
What are FIFA 22 TOTS Swaps?
The Swaps system asks players to earn Tokens by completing in-game objectives and SBCs, which can then be submitted for rewards. You can choose to save up all of your Tokens for the top prize, or splash them on multiple smaller rewards – the choice is all yours.
Tokens are added almost every day, and while most are easy to spot, some have been known to be smuggled away in one of the individual Marquee Matchup SBCs. We recommend checking FUT every day at 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET / 6 PM GMT / 7 PM CET to make sure you see them all.
EA confirmed that there are 25 to earn in total, with the best reward requiring 22. Keep your eyes peeled, as you can only afford to skip three if you want to scoop the highest prize.
FIFA 22 TOTS Token Swaps rewards
TOTS Swaps rewards give players the opportunity to open packs that guarantee a TOTS from one of the most desirable leagues. There are also some tasty-looking Icon Moments in there for those who want to know what they’re getting before committing.

EA have announced another FIFA 22 Team of the Week. We’ve got everything you need to know, as well as the full FIFA 22 TOTW 35 lineup.
It’s time for another FIFA 22 Team of the Week. In FIFA 22 TOTW 35, there are some huge names for people to add to their teams and we’ve got all the details listed for you.
Ultimate Team remains the most popular mode in the FIFA series. One of the many reasons for this is incorporating real-world football into its addictive gameplay loop through special cards, such as Icons or the upcoming TOTS.
One of the mode’s oldest promotions is ‘Team of the Week’, which offers players a weekly batch of upgraded cards, based on real-life player performances the previous week, to help build out their squads.
We’ll be updating this hub with the latest FIFA 22 TOTW news, so be sure to check back here every week.
Here are the full updates for FIFA 22’s Team of the Week 35.
- This week’s TOTW
- What are TOTW cards in FIFA 22?
- What is the new Featured TOTW card?
- When is TOTW released?

Check out the full squad for the FIFA 22 TOTW 35 here.
What are TOTW cards in FIFA 22 Ultimate Team?
Team of the Week items are special cards that boost stats based on that player’s performance in the previous week of real-world games. Any player awarded an in-form will see both their ratings and in-game stats get a permanent increase.
Every week, EA unveils a 23-man squad of the stars who had the best games in the previous domestic or international fixtures round. They could be awarded for a last-minute winner in a big game or a heroic performance from a goalkeeper to keep a clean sheet.

Each TOTW is available in packs for an entire week until it is replaced by the next squad on the following Wednesday. Players can’t receive an in-form two weeks in a row.
While an in-form card is in packs, it replaces the base version of that player. The normal card will return to packs when that TOTW is over.
FIFA 22 Ultimate Team Featured TOTW
In FIFA 22, EA has addressed fans’ complaints that TOTW items are often quickly rendered useless by the other promotional cards added to the game throughout the year.
Every week, one player will receive a special Featured TOTW card. These players will receive a larger boost than the rest of the squad in an attempt to make them more desirable to those building their teams.
To qualify for this additional stat boost, the player must have a base card that is under 80-rated and not have any other performance-based card in packs – such as a Ones to Watch.
When is the TOTW released?
Historically, EA announces the latest TOTW every Wednesday so that any Monday night games can be considered.
Each new team is normally Tweeted out around 10 AM PT / 1 PM ET / 6 PM GMT with a full look at every upgrade.
