Frequently asked questions
Everything people ask about TAC FC, the free online football manager.
What is TAC FC?
TAC FC is a free online football manager. You run one club in a shared world of real managers: pick the team, set the tactics, train your players, trade on the transfer market, grow your stadium and climb from the bottom division to continental glory.
Is TAC FC free?
Yes. Everything you need to play and to win is free. PRO is optional and adds comfort extras such as more friendlies a day, saved tactics, advanced market filters, automatic bidding and a sub team in another country.
Do I need to download anything?
No. TAC FC plays in the browser on a phone, tablet or computer. You can add it to your home screen so it opens like an app.
Which countries and languages are there?
TAC FC has 124 countries with more than 7,000 clubs, and the game is in 49 languages. Every country plays on one shared calendar: the same rounds, match days and cup draws, so you can compare your season with managers everywhere.
How do matches work?
A football engine plays every match from your line-up, tactics and players. You can watch it live in 2D or 3D with commentary, or read the report, the statistics and the player ratings afterwards.
What are Gold Points and real rewards?
Top finishes in a country's Premier League and winning the national cup pay Gold Points. Every Gold Point is worth real money and can be exchanged. See the real rewards page for the current prize table.
Can I play with friends?
Yes. Add managers as buddies, message them, challenge them to friendlies and meet them in the cups, the International Champions Cup and the forum.
How is TAC FC different from Top Eleven?
Both are online football managers against real people. TAC FC runs in any browser with no app to install, has leagues in 124 countries on one shared calendar, is in 49 languages, and pays real rewards (Gold Points) for top Premier League finishes and the national cup.
How is TAC FC different from Football Manager?
Football Manager is a paid single-player game with real-world clubs that you install on a computer or console. TAC FC is free, plays in the browser on any device, and every other club in your league can be run by another real manager, so your rivals think back.
