Community FC Ultimate Team SBC solutions can save time, but treat them as starting points—not guaranteed valid or cheapest squads. Before buying or submitting players, compare the solution with the live challenge, check prices for your platform, and review every item: EA says SBC submissions are final and submitted Player Items are permanently removed from your club.
What makes an SBC solution safe to use?
A solution is useful only if it meets the requirements of the specific challenge currently shown in your game. For FC 26, EA says puzzle SBC requirements may include squad rating, chemistry, player quality, leagues, nations, and clubs. Read the live challenge rather than assuming a community squad still qualifies; requirements or challenge availability may not match an older post. EA’s SBC guide
A solution’s displayed price is also not a promise of what you will pay. EA says Transfer Market item prices fluctuate with demand. FUTBIN provides community solutions and platform-specific cost sorting, but its estimate can change as market prices move. EA’s SBC guide · EA’s Transfer Market guide · FUTBIN

How to check a community solution before using it
- Open the exact SBC in Ultimate Team. Read every requirement, the reward, and the expiry information displayed in the game. The challenge screen—not a posted squad—determines whether a submission qualifies. EA’s SBC guide
- Compare the proposed squad with each requirement. Check the players and squad against the live rating, chemistry, quality, league, nation, club, or special-item conditions shown. FUTBIN lists community solutions and provides filters and cost sorting, but those features do not replace checking the in-game requirements. FUTBIN
- Look in your club and SBC Storage first. EA advises checking both for suitable items before obtaining more players. If you still need someone, consult the Transfer Market. EA’s SBC guide
- Check the current price for your platform just before buying. Market prices respond to demand, so an earlier listing or solution estimate may no longer reflect the cost. FUTBIN offers platform-specific cost sorting; treat the displayed amount as time-sensitive. EA’s Transfer Market guide · FUTBIN
- Recheck the squad after making substitutions. A replacement can affect rating, chemistry, or a league, nation, club, quality, or special-item requirement. Verify the entire squad against the live challenge again.
- Inspect every selected item before confirming. EA states, “SBC submissions are final.” Submitted Player Items are permanently removed from your club, and EA Advisors cannot restore them. Make sure each item’s removal is acceptable before you submit. EA’s SBC guide
How to compare two or more solutions
There is no universal cheapest or best squad: the answer depends on the active challenge, platform, items you already own, and market prices at the time you act. Compare the options on the factors that affect your decision:
#1 Best Overall
- Eligibility: Does the full squad meet every live requirement?
- Out-of-pocket cost: What would the missing players cost on your platform now?
- Club and SBC Storage inventory: How many required items do you already have?
- Time remaining: How soon does the challenge expire, and is there enough time to verify and complete it?
- Reward: Is the reward worth exchanging the selected items?
- Items submitted: Are you willing to permanently lose every player in the squad?
FUTBIN can help you find community squads and sort costs by platform, but a displayed estimate does not establish a guaranteed current total or the best choice for your club. Check the game and market at the moment you are completing the SBC. FUTBIN

Confirm which FC edition you are playing and whether the guide describes the same challenge format. EA’s help article also discusses FC 27 changes, including simplified SBCs using Item Score alongside puzzle SBCs. Those FC 27 details should not be applied as if they were FC 26 requirements.
