What are coins?

How you earn and spend Short Stack’s in-game currency.

Coins are Short Stack’s in-game currency. You earn them by:

  • clearing a level for the first time, with more for more stars and extra on a Hard level
  • clearing the Daily Challenge, once a day
  • the Daily Coin Drop, when you play days in a row
  • Coin Shards, from level 31: every 10 make 10 coins
  • every 10th level from level 50
  • Chests, including the coins a duplicate pays

After 1,500 coins from levels and the Daily Challenge in a day, more still come in, at a third of the rate.

You spend coins on Mystery Chests, Unique Chests and limited-time items. Coins can’t be exchanged for money.
