Exchange Points[]

Exchange Points is the unofficial name for an unnamed and undocumented subsidiary currency with the sole purpose of selling and buying →Cards. Exchange Points cannot be earned, bought or spent. The only way is to exchange Cards for Exchange Points and vice versa. This is the same concept as the former Fusion Points in Asphalt 8: Airborne.

As with most currency transactions in real life, this exchange is always connected with a loss. An additional disadvantage is that players cannot directly exchange Cards for Exchange Points, but only via random containers: There are five Kit Boxes that can be bought with Exchange Points, granting random cards that are only vaguely defined by the concept of rarity.

The balance display of Exchange Points has five sections marking the thresholds for each of the five Exchange Boxes. A blue bar shows the player's current amount of Exchange Points. An additional green bar indicates the amount of Exchange Points that would be added if the currently chosen cards were exchanged with the Exchange button. The Exchange Boxes can be bought with the Get the box! button.

Fuel[]

Top bar of Events screen

Fuel is used for Time-Limited Events.

Unit: Fuel or Fuel cell
Cap: The Fuel bar has a maxium capacity of 999. If the conter is at 999, further Fuel, for example obtained from Kit Boxes, is lost. The number of displayed cells in the bar changes according to the player's →VIP Level:
- 0−3: 10 cells
- 4: 11 cells
- 5: 12 cells
- 6: 13 cells
Spending:
- Entry fee for Time-Limited Event races. Cost per race: 3
Earning:
- Automatic: 1 every 10 minutes
- Ads: Players can watch ads to gain Fuel.
- Fuel refill: Refill of single Fuel cells, granted in Daily Reward ( 4−50) and Kit Boxes ( 1−20). The Fuel is added to a player's balance even if the bar is full and is displayed as numbers after the bar, for example "38/10". Important: Surplus Fuel is lost when the game is reinstalled. Players will restart with 10/10.
Buying:
- Tokens: Fixed price of 100 for a complete Fuel refill, regardless of the number of empty cells.
Exchange rates:
- Buy: 1 = 10 to 100, depending on the number of empty Fuel cells. This is extremely expensive and should only be considered as a last resort.

Top of VIP screen

VIP Coins are needed to reach higher →VIP Levels. They cannot be earned but only be acquired trough in-game purchases.

Unit: VIP Coin
Spending:
The sole purpose of VIP Coins is to reach higher VIP Levels. Unlike VIP Points in Asphalt 8: Airborne, VIP Coins are subtracted from the players' balance once the next VIP level is reached, so they act as a real currency that is acually spent. Each level costs a certain amount of VIP Coins:

VIP Level	Price
1	30
2	30
3	75
4	105
5	?
6	?

Buying:
- Real money: Buying vehicles, buying Token Packs, Credit Packs or Special Packs in the shop.
Exchange rates:
- € 1 = 13.64 since May 2020 (originally 15)
- Prices in US$ are the same despite different exchange rates, so players from the USA have an advantage as long the exchange rate for $ 1 is below € 1.
