Money(
), often referred to as Cash, is the main currency in The Simpsons: Tapped Out. It can be collected by finishing characters' jobs, collecting income from buildings, winning from a Scratch-R or Springfield Downs, or exchanging Krustyland Tickets for it at the Krustyland Entrance (one must finish the The Krusty-est Place On Earth main questline). The most expensive item currently available for Money purchase is the Sit-N-Rotate which will cost the player ten million Money to buy. All of the main story line buildings are bought with Money, and so are most decorations. Money has been in the game since its official launch in 2012.
The Store[]
Donuts can be used to purchase Money. Below is a list of Money packages which can be purchased with Donuts in-game. (The money increases when you level up!)

Money limit reached[]
The maximum amount of Money a player can have is 4,294,967,295. This number is the highest value that can be represented by a 32-bit unsigned integer, which is a common way to store numbers in computers. Everything earned past this amount gets spoiled.
When reaching this limit for the first time the player is presented with the following dialog:
| Character | Dialogue |
|---|---|
 | Good Glavin! Don't collect another cent! |
 | Fat chance, Poindexter: these white houses don't farm themselves. |
| You fool! If you take in even one dollar more, we'll exceed the bounds of binary dominion. You'll destroy us all! |
| Well, I guess I shouldn't do that. Again. |
| “ | Congratulations, you've reached the game's currency limit! You'll never make any more than this, so might we suggest spending some of that hard-earned on a Sit-N-Rotate or a few thousand Bloodmobiles? | ” |
