Playoffs What happens when teams tie for a playoff spot? A tiebreaker system is used if two or more teams tie for a playoff berth. Head-to-head record is used first, then division record, then run differential, then last season's record and finally a coin flip.

Saw that, but does that also apply to  wild card?

This is used even if the two teams are from different divisions-- their division record in the separate divisions is the second tiebreaker.
