Squad Swaps Are Here: A New Way to Build Your Club

by Elena Misko

Dear UFL Players,

Starting May 14, Squad Swaps comes to UFL — a new way to turn unused player cards into meaningful upgrades for your club.

Duplicate cards and lower-rated players no longer have to sit idle in your collection. Now, they can be turned into valuable rewards and help drive your squad forward.

Let’s take a closer look at how Squad Swaps works.

What Is Squad Swaps?

Squad Swaps is an exchange system where you use player cards to assemble lineups that meet specific requirements in exchange for rewards.

Each Squad is a separate challenge with its own conditions. Once all requirements are met, you submit the Squad and receive your reward.

How It Works

  1. Choose a Squad

  2. Build a lineup that matches the requirements

  3. Submit the Squad (cards used for it will be permanently removed from your club)

  4. Claim your reward

Each Squad comes with a fixed completion requirement.

Squad Categories

To make navigation easier, all Squads are divided into categories:

Upgrades

Increase the tier and rating of player cards.

Players

Upgrade player cards by squad line (attack, midfield, defense, including goalkeeper), with the option to choose specific players.

Promo

Earn packs, with limited-time availability and completion limits.

Completing Squads

  • Each completed Squad grants a specific reward that is displayed in advance. 

  • Squads within the same category can be completed in any order.

Squad Requirements

Every Squad includes a set of squad-building requirements:

  • Card rarity

  • Number of players

  • Roles

  • Card rating (minimum or maximum)

  • Link-Up Style

  • Nationality or League

Rewards

Every Squad includes a reward that is granted once all requirements are completed.

Reward Types 

Rewards may include:

  • Packs

  • Player cards

Additional Limitations

Some Squads may include additional limitations:

  • Time-based — available only for a limited period

  • Quantity-based — limited number of completions

A New Layer of Strategy

Squad Swaps turns unused cards into a valuable resource for developing your club.

Instead of simply keeping them in your collection, you can now put them to good use: experiment with different lineups, fill key positions, and strengthen your squad with a clear purpose.

The feature adds a new strategic layer to the game that goes beyond the matches themselves.

Squad Swaps is already waiting for you in-game. Use your cards wisely and start strengthening your squad today.

See you on the pitch!
