How to Get Doubloons in Save the Krusty Krab
Reviewed GuideUnofficial fan guide
Quick answer
Doubloons vs restaurant cash
The game has two currencies. Doubloons are permanent and buy classes and skins in the lobby. Restaurant cash ($) is earned during a run from customers and tips and is spent in the Night Shop. Doubloons stay on your account between runs.

Tips to earn faster
- Claim after every session. Finished tasks don’t pay until you press Claim.
- Play different crew sizes. Solo, duo, trio and four-player runs each have their own badge to collect.
- Push for more days and better stars. Task groups like Work Streak and Rising Stars reward exactly that, so a long, clean run clears several goals at once.
- Buy the Night Shop pack whenever you can spare the cash, especially late in a run.
We don’t publish “Doubloons per hour” figures until we’ve measured them, because the payout depends on which tasks you have left.
