Bucks (also known as AM (Adopt Me!) Bucks, or Adopt Me Currency - AMC for short) are the main currency of the Adopt Me! game. They can be used to buy in-game items such as food, toys, gifts, eggs, and vehicles. They can be used to purchase houses and furniture for houses.
The maximum amount of Bucks a player can make every in-game day is 200. After the player has reached this limit, a message will pop up at the bottom of their screen, reading “Maximum reward of 200 Bucks reached”.
Every few months, Adopt Me! will do a x2 weekend, which allows players to make double the amount of Bucks from completing pet’s and baby’s ailments and working jobs. During these weekends, the maximum Bucks reward is also doubled to 400 every in-game day. They also allow players to age their pets twice as fast.
The number of bucks the player has is always located on the top right of their screen when playing the game (this does not apply if players are in their house on the mobile version of Roblox, where bucks will only show when browsing furniture in edit mode).

How to Earn Bucks
Completing Ailments
Bucks are mainly earned through fulfilling a baby or pet's ailments.
Below is a list of ailments, how to complete them, and the amount of Bucks that they reward.
Ailment | Reward | How to complete |
---|---|---|
Sleepy | 8 | Place the pet/baby in a pet bed or crib for a certain amount of time. |
Hungry | 10 | Feed food (such as a sandwich or donut) to the pet/baby. Pets can also eat from food bowls. |
Thirsty | 10 | Feed a drink (such as water or lemonade) to the pet/baby. Pets can also drink from water bowls. |
Dirty | 12 | Place the pet/baby in a shower or bathtub for a certain amount of time. |
Bored | 18 | Bring the pet/baby to the Playground for a certain amount of time. Alternatively, place them on a piano in a house. |
School | 18 | Bring the pet/baby to the School for a certain amount of time. |
Pool Party | 18 | Bring the pet/baby to the Pool Party for a certain amount of time. |
Salon | 18 | Bring the pet/baby to the Salon for a certain amount of time. |
Pizza Party | 18 | Bring the pet/baby to the Pizza Shop for a certain amount of time. |
Camping | 15 | Bring the pet/baby to the Campsite for a certain amount of time. |
Sick | 15 | There are three ways of completing this ailment: feeding the pet/baby a Healing Apple, talking to Doctor Heart, or placing the pet/baby on the healing bench in a room in the Hospital. |
Cold (Removed) | 12 | Bring the pet/baby to the Hot Springs for a certain amount of time. |
Jobs
Another way of making Bucks is by working jobs at the Salon, Pizza Shop, School and Hospital. These jobs were introduced on September 22, 2022, and allow players to make up to 50 every in-game day.
Task Board
Players can also earn Bucks by completing tasks on the Task Board.
Daily Reward
Another way to earn Bucks is from the Daily Reward. Every day, a player is given a sum of bucks that starts with 25 and accumulates as the player increases their login streak (though it resets after every 5th day). Players earn 25 the first day, 50 the second, 100 the third, 200 the fourth, and a gift on the fifth; on the 30th day, players would receive a Cracked Egg. Players also receive a number of stars that they can use in the Star Rewards.
Stands
Another way to earn Bucks is by using a Lemonade Stand, a Hotdog Stand, or a Cotton Candy Stand. Players can buy these items in the shop menu, the Lemonade and Cotton Candy stands cost 50 each, and the Hotdog stand is 95. They can otherwise be obtained by trading.
To use these items, the player can place them down anywhere on the map, and set a price to sell food for. With the Hotdog Stand, the player can sell Hotdogs at any amount between 0 and 50, and with the Lemonade and Cotton Candy stands, they can sell Lemonade or Cotton Candy Sticks at any amount between 0 and 20.
Ice Cream Truck
The Ice Cream Truck functions similar to stands, except it is a vehicle. This used to be purchasable in the shop menu for 350, however it was from the game on January 6, 2022. It can still be obtained by trading.
The owner of the Ice Cream Truck can drive it around the map and sell Ice Cream at anywhere between 0 and 20.
Taxis
Taxis are vehicles that were added to Adopt Me! in an update on February 17, 2022. The Taxi Driver Bundle can be purchased for 350, and unlocks two taxis, the Yellow Taxi Cab and the Black Cab. They can otherwise be obtained by trading.
To use this vehicle, the owner can set a price between 0 and 20. Then, other players can walk up to the taxi, and request a ride. The player can choose their destination, and once the owner of the taxi has driven them to that location, the Bucks will be payed to the owner.
Money Trees
Main article: Money Tree
The Money Tree is a furniture item that a player can buy in their house for 1,450. They collect 8 every five minutes, with a maximum of 100 every real life day.
Lures
Lures were added to Adopt Me! on September 14, 2023. There are two different lures: The Box Lure (which costs 750) and the Cozy Home Lure (which costs 1200). When settling a Campfire Cookie in one of these lures, it is likely to reward Bucks after four hours, which ranges from 10 - 10,000.
Purchasing for Robux
Another way of obtaining bucks is by buying them for Robux, the ROBLOX currency. To do so, players should click on the money tab in the top right corner that shows how much money they have and it will list the amount of bucks players can buy with Robux.Occasionally, there are sales for bucks that are purchased with Robux. These usually occur during an event or the release of a new item or feature.
Paychecks
Main article: Paychecks
Previously, players would receive a paycheck of 20 every ten minutes that they were playing Adopt Me!. However, this feature was removed from the game on September 22, 2022, during the jobs and roleplay update.
Buying Gamepasses
Bucks can also be obtained by purchasing specific gamepasses. If a player purchases VIP or the Starter Pack, they get 100 and 200 respectively after the purchase has been made. However, a player can only purchase these gamepasses once, so after the purchase has been made, they can not earn any more Bucks using this method.
