How to Back Up Your eFootball Account With a Konami ID

Protect your Dream Team forever: link a Konami ID, transfer your eFootball account to a new phone, and avoid the mistakes that lose squads.

Link it on day one

The single most important thing you can do in the eFootball APK has nothing to do with tactics. Open the settings, find the Konami ID option, and link a free account. From that moment your Dream Team, currencies, and progress live on Konami's servers, not just on your phone. It works identically on the eFootball official site build, since the account system is Konami's own. Everything else in this guide is details; this is the step that matters.

Moving to a new phone

Install the game on the new device, open it, and choose data transfer with your Konami ID instead of starting fresh. Sign in and your entire squad restores: players, currencies, settings, all of it. Do the transfer on Wi-Fi, and do not start a new career on the new phone first, because that creates a conflict you then have to untangle.

Mistakes that lose squads

People lose teams three ways: never linking an ID and then resetting the phone, linking and then forgetting the login email, or handing account details to strangers promising free coins. The eFootball official site will never ask for your password in a chat message, and neither will we. Write the login down, keep it private, and check the safety guide for the full precautions list. If you are installing fresh, the install guide has the clean path.

What to do if you lose access

Act fast and stay calm. If you lose the login email, check every inbox you own for the registration message first; most lockouts are just forgotten addresses. Konami's account recovery handles the rest, but it needs details only the real owner knows, which is why linking with accurate information matters from the start. Never trust a stranger who offers to recover it for you.

Quick answers

Questions, answered

Is a Konami ID free?

Yes. Registration is free and takes a couple of minutes inside the game or on Konami's site.

What happens if I never link one?

Your squad lives only on that phone. A lost device, a reset, or a bad reinstall can wipe months of progress.

Can one Konami ID hold multiple accounts?

No. Link one game account per Konami ID and keep the login details somewhere safe.
