Tokens

Tokens are a measure of currency used in Asphalt 8: Airborne, introduced in the Winter update. They can be obtained through Events, in-game advertisements (at a rate of per fifteen-second ad), in-game purchase in the form of token packs and as a Mastery Reward for certain cars.

Transferability with credits
It is unknown what the relationship between tokens and credits are, but comparing the Rookie Credit Pack (30,000 credits), and the Handful of Tokens Pack (200 tokens) both of which cost $2.99, we can estimate that one token is equivalent to about 150 credits. Of course, this estimate is extremely rough as the amount of in-game currency you receive for every dollar you spend depends largely on which pack you purchased.

Token-bought items

 * There are many cars that can be bought with tokens, and as of the Decals Update, many cars that were previously only available for real-life cash became available for sale as Token cars.


 * The Decals Update also introduced customizable decals you can buy for cars (hence the name), many of which can be purchased with tokens.


 * In addition to cars, the Double Credits and Extra Tank items both require tokens to buy.


 * All pro kit boxes, with the exception of the Super Racer Kit Box, are bought with tokens.
 * The proto keys from R&D can be restored for 150 tokens.


 * A refill, costing between 65-7 tokens, is available for the fuel bar in the events section. The amount to be paid is determined by the number of fuel segments to be refilled. Each segment costs 6.5 tokens but the player is charged 7 tokens to avoid a partial amount of tokens
