FIFA to migrate to its own EVM-compatible blockchain for FIFA Connect

FIFA to migrate to its own EVM-compatible blockchain for FIFA Connect

FIFA Collect, the official digital collectibles platform of FIFA, is upgrading its infrastructure and migrating to a new EVM-compatible FIFA Blockchain, the organization announced. 

The migration is expected to begin no earlier than May 20, 2025, with users notified in advance, according to the FIFA website. 

The move is designed to enhance platform performance, scalability, and future innovation. FIFA Collect users will retain access to their existing digital assets post-migration by simply logging into their accounts.

New features and wallet compatibility improvements are expected following the upgrade, FIFA said.

No user action is required at this time. However, those who previously exported collectibles must reimport them by May 20 to ensure they are included in the migration. 

FIFA will temporarily re-enable imports for this purpose. After that, manual migration may require customer support and additional verification.

USDC ( USDC ) balances can continue to be spent until the migration date. After the transition, users will only be able to withdraw, not spend, their remaining balances.

Leaving Algorand

During the migration, FIFA Collect will be unavailable for approximately 12 hours. Algorand-based ( ALGO ) wallets, such as Pera and Defly, will no longer be supported after migration. 

Instead, users can connect using MetaMask or any EVM-compatible wallet via WalletConnect.

All collectibles currently listed for sale will remain listed on the new platform unless manually delisted before the cutoff date. The migration is free for all users.

FIFA coin? 

In March, during a White House visit, FIFA President Gianni Infantino announced the organization’s interest in developing a cryptocurrency token during a White House Crypto Summit on March 7. 

Standing beside President Trump, Infantino said the proposed “FIFA coin” could engage the organization’s global fanbase. Trump responded enthusiastically, suggesting the coin could eventually surpass FIFA in value.
