Before the insults come in about money....I spend money on what i like so dont hate plz.
Im planning on spending $1500 dollars day 1 of early access. We who spend money need to know the exact process this year before we lose our money over miscommunication.
Early access - points market closed? If so that means we cant buy till full release.
Load up 1.5 grand worth of points on 17 and transfer to 18? Refuse to do this unless ea clarifys this is the case. Imagine 1.5k stuck on 17?
Can we even have fifa points during early access?
Can someone please clarify this for me or even an ea rep? This is very important to ea so id assume we need info.
Thanks for listening folks. Input appreciated.

Why would you wanna buy them before the game is out anyway?
Interesting info! Nice find bro. How much are you gna drop on early release? I still need some more info from ea or an ea article at least.
throwing it out of a moving car window would be a better use than fifa points.
Why? It's not that much for a years worth of entertainment. I mean if you want to see people wasting money go to the clothes thread in ot.
My friend spend $5000 in fifa 17. For some people that money is not that much my friend
It's not difficult to get any player you want by just trading or playing matches, especially now FUT Champions rewards exist.
Aside from that Ronaldo, Suarez, Messi perform no better than Montero, Musa, Antonio (in my experience). Speed and 4 star skills is more than enough to be effective.
Maybe I'm just really unlucky with my connection or something but with the gameplay I have had in Fifa 17 (and now with the Fifa 18 Beta) there is no way I would even consider spending money on Fifa 18.
Fifa 18 is basically Fifa 17 with the manual defending nerfed even more... if you play the ball straight through the centre and double tap past the keeper you will score pretty much everytime... no need for Fifa points for that, just pick the fastest Premier League striker you can afford.
That said, if you drop 1.5k on the game, well, I just hope you aren't left disappointed afterwards.
I ended up with a pretty sick team this year without buying many fifa points at all, so it's doable... but whatever makes you happy my man!
So many negative, useless and unhelpful replies from people judging the OP when all he wanted was a simple answer. It sums up this community and it's really quite sad.
As far as I know from own experience you should buy the points before early access on fifa 17 and then transfer to 18. Wait for confirmation from EA that you will be able to do so. You can also only do it once per FIFA so be careful with the transfer .You can buy FIFA points on early access but there has been some issues in the past with purchasing points from the store or people not being able to access to the web app hence why you should buy before early access comes out. Make sure you play it safe though as described below because EA won't compensate and your points will rot on fut 17
What I will be doing :
Best thing to do is to WAIT till fut 18 web app release (will be max. 1 week prior to early access) and wait for confirmation from EA or from respected sources on twitter that it works and then load up the points on the fut 17 account and transfer to fut 18 to be on the safe side.
Wish you some good pack luck.
What @Icosa_Gaming has stated in the final paragraph is exactly what I'll be doing.
