TFOs

Run activities that list Fleet Marks as a reward.

The Relationship

How do you earn Fleet Credits with Fleet Marks?

Contribute first, spend the Credits later

Fleet Marks do not become store currency while they sit in your inventory. When an eligible fleet project accepts your Fleet Mark contribution, you receive Fleet Credits. Contributing other resources accepted by fleet projects can also earn Fleet Credits.
