Problem

Card upgrade feature was underutilised

Matchday Champions features a card upgrade system that improves the stats and visuals of cards.

Originally triggered via individual card pages, the feature was underutilised and failed to meet its potential as a coin sink.

Access point from home screen with timer

Training Pitch screen with active offer and upgrade flow

Clear presentation of cards that can be upgraded and available discounts

Solution
