EA Tax Calculator for FC 27

Every player you sell on the Ultimate Team transfer market loses a cut to EA's transaction tax. Type in a price, see exactly what you keep — no sign-up, no ads.

Summary: EA takes a flat 5% transaction tax on every FC 27 transfer market sale. To find what you keep, multiply the sell price by 0.95. To hit a target amount after tax, divide that target by 0.95 — this calculator does both for you below.

The calculator

Results are rounded to whole coins. The game displays rounded coin values, so your actual in-game number may differ by a single coin on unusual prices.

How the 5% EA tax works

EA's transfer market tax is a single, public rule: 5% of every sale is taken by the game, and the seller keeps the other 95%. It applies to every player sale on the transfer market regardless of price — on low-value players the tax rounds to just a few coins, but it is still 5% of the sale price.

EA tax
The 5% transaction fee EA deducts from every Ultimate Team transfer market sale. It is charged to the seller, not the buyer.
Net profit (what you keep)
The coins that actually land in your club after the 5% tax is taken off the sale price: sell price × 0.95.
Listing price (work backwards)
The sell price you need to set to end up with a chosen number of coins after tax: target coins ÷ 0.95, rounded up so your net lands at or above the target.

A worked example

Say you sell a striker for 100,000 coins. The 5% tax takes 5,000 coins, so you keep 95,000 coins (100,000 × 0.95). Flip it around: if you want to end up with 100,000 coins after tax, you need to list at about 105,264 coins (100,000 ÷ 0.95, rounded up) — selling at 105,264 leaves you with roughly 100,001 after the 5% cut.
