Money, shops & trading

Earn money, sell spare items and trade with players.

Three different balances

  • Money ($) pays for everyday shops, player trades and tier fees. Check /bal.
  • Coins are used for items in /coinshop, including cosmetics and special purchases. Check /coins.
  • Souls buy custom enchantments. Earn them from dungeon fights and eligible wilderness Soul drops. Check /souls.

Ways to earn

  • Join jobs, complete quests, sell items in /shop, sell custom fish, trade with players and take part in events.
  • Welcoming a first-time Lobby newcomer in public chat within 60 seconds earns $50. Extra words, punctuation and forms such as “wel-come” count. Each player earns once per newcomer across the network.

Sell and trade

  • Use /ah to browse the auction house. Everyone starts with 5 listings; tiers and store ranks can increase the allowance.
  • Use /trade for a trade window. Check both sides before confirming.

Player chest shops

  • Chest shops are available to regular players on Towny. Use /pshop or /chestshop; /pshops, /chestshops, /playershop and /cshop are aliases with the same subcommands.
  • Place an empty chest somewhere you have build access, look at it, and run /pshop create. Protect your shop location before stocking it.
  • Use the shop settings to add products, set prices and stock the chest. Check the displayed item amount and prices before trading.
  • You can also use /pshop create 100 50 to set initial prices. Buy is what a customer pays to buy from your shop; sell is what a customer receives when selling to your shop.
  • Use /pshop list for your shops, /pshop browse to find other shops, and /pshop bank to manage shop funds. Empty the shop storage before using /pshop remove while looking at your shop.
  • Normal player limits are 10 shops and 3 products per shop; eligible ranks may allow more. Claim and build-access rules still apply.
