FIFA 23 Winter Wildcards Swaps explained
Much like many other FUT events so far this season, FIFA 23 Winter Wildcards Swaps tasks players with completing in-game objectives to earn up to 25 tokens. These can then be submitted into special SBCs in exchange for valuable rewards.
As you’d expect, those with the time to unlock every token will have access to top-tier rewards, usually consisting of high-rated special cards – including Icons. However, there are also smaller rewards that only require a handful of objectives to be completed.

Everyone receives one free token at the start of the event, but the rest can only be earned by completing unique objectives. These often include a certain number of goals with players from a specific league or nation in either Squad Battles, Division Rivals, or FUT Friendlies.
Tokens will arrive in two waves, so be sure to keep an eye on the time limit for each objective. But if you do find yourself one short of your preferred reward, bonus tokens will be available through packs in the store.
