EA has announced trade offers will no longer be available in FIFA 15 Ultimate Team.

In a blog post, the developer explained the reason behind the decision was to further clamp down on those who look to exploit the feature to farm in-game coins.

“Although some honest players used this feature to trade with friends, it became one of the methods used by coin sellers to sell and move coins. Account phishers also abused Trade Offers by moving stolen players and coins after wrongfully gaining access to unsuspecting FUT player accounts.

“This will also address ‘bid bumping’, where people would try and trick others into bidding far more than they wanted for a player item.

“It was a tough decision, but this is the right step towards improving security, showing cheaters the red card, and keeping FUT safe for all FIFA fans.”

The post also notes that transfer targets will now be limited to a maximum of 50, once players unlock boosts via EAS FC. Also, Origin login will become mandatory when accessing the FIFA Ultimate Team web app.

FIFA 15 launches September 26 on PS3, Xbox 360, PS4, Xbox One and PC.
