If you've started up Madden 22 over the weekend following its worldwide release on Friday, then you might be wondering what the Cred currency is all about.

This question might especially be prevalent if you play Madden Ultimate Team. At the top right of your Madden Ultimate Team page, you'll notice the usual currencies such as training, points and coins. But then you'll also see Cred among those. So what exactly is it for?

Unfortunately for MUT users, Cred isn't going to help you a whole bunch.

What is Cred in Madden 22?

Cred is a new currency in Madden, which can be used to purchase items in the Store. The Store allows you to buy jersey bundles for your MUT squad, or for your character in The Yard game mode. Unfortunately, Cred cannot be used to buy packs or improve your team in MUT.

You can acquire Cred in every game mode in Madden 22. You can essentially think of it as XP. The more you play and progress through different stages of the game, the more Cred you earn. Cred is, of course, short for credibility, so you're basically proving yourself to be a top-tier Madden player as you acquire more and more Cred.

What can you spend Cred on in Madden 22?

You can use Cred to purchase uniform bundles — check out the Leather Legends Premium Bundle in the photo above — or various items that appear in the Store in Madden 22. You're going to have to play quite a bit of Madden to afford that particular bundle, though, as it costs 220,000 Cred.

While the Store is primarily used for The Yard to equip your character with different looks, it can also be used in MUT. For example, the Leather Legends Premium Bundle shows a MUT card, meaning you can use that uniform for your MUT team as you play in online or offline matches.

But not everything in the Store can be purchased with Cred. In the photo above, the Jordan Deluxe and Jordan Blue Deluxe bundles are only available with Points. And Points are only available with actual money, and not in-game currency.
