Slop Tower Defense Currencies
Cash, Gems, Stars, Sheckles, Suns, Slopbux, and Raid Crystals — what each wallet buys and what it does not.
Slop Tower Defense uses more than one wallet. Mixing them up is how players waste codes, underfund Basic Summons, or chase the wrong event sink. This page explains Cash, Gems, Stars, Sheckles, Suns, Slopbux, and Raid Crystals, plus commonly reported summon pack prices. Cross-check live labels after every Updates patch.
If you are brand new, you mostly need Cash and a little Gem patience. Read Getting Started and Summons and Crafting alongside this reference.
Quick wallet table
| Currency | Primary use | Typical sources |
|---|---|---|
| Cash | Basic Summons, many placements / upgrades | Clears, Playtime Rewards, codes such as SLOP |
| Gems | Premium Summons, high-value packs | Milestone codes, quests, purchases |
| Stars | Space crates / event sinks | Space playlists, AFK Star zones |
| Sheckles | Specialist / wipe-linked sinks | Data wipe codes (mapping disputed) |
| Suns | Specialist / wipe-linked sinks | Data wipe codes (mapping disputed) |
| Slopbux | Trade-adjacent specialist wallet | Disputed codes, specialist sinks |
| Raid Crystals | Raid Merchant / raid crates | Raid clears |
Cash
Cash is the backbone currency. It funds placements, upgrades, and Basic Summons. Commonly reported Basic Summon prices:
- 500 Cash — single summon
- 4750 Cash — x10 batch
- 20000 Cash — x50 batch
Early accounts should convert code Cash (SLOP is commonly 900 Cash) into attacker breadth before vanity spending. Avoid the Freddy Trashcan farm trap until three DPS units are online. Active Normal clears plus Playtime Rewards beat idle panic — see AFK Farm for when idle is actually useful.
Gems
Gems fuel Premium Summons and premium cosmetics or exclusive pulls. Milestone codes such as MINIUPDATE (100 Gems), 1MVISITS! (250 Gems), 3KSERVERMEMBERS (200 Gems), and 3KCCU (250 Gems + 5K Cash) are high-confidence on the September 19–21 2026 Codes Hub table.
Exclusive Pack pricing is commonly reported at 7777 Gems or 299 Robux. That is a large sink — only open it when you understand Best Units targets. New players usually gain more from Cash Basic batches first.
Stars
Stars power Space-oriented crate and event economies. Earn them through Space playlists and AFK Star zones, then spend with a plan from Space Event. Stars are a poor substitute for Cash when you still need Normal wins or Basic Summons.
Sheckles and Suns
These niche wallets appear heavily in data wipe compensation talk. Community sources conflict on whether DATA WIPE 1 and DATA WIPE 2 map to Sheckles versus Suns. Try both strings if one fails, then spend inside the menus that accept them — do not assume they convert into Premium odds. DATA WIPE 3 is more consistently reported as the Isaac2 unit grant rather than a wallet dump.
Slopbux
Slopbux shows up in trade conversations and disputed freebies. The code SORRYABOUTSLOPBUX (reported as 25 Slopbux) remains on the Codes Hub verify list because outlets disagree on whether it still works. Do not price multi-exclusive trades around an unverified 25 Slopbux drip — read How to Trade.
Raid Crystals
Raid Crystals feed the Raid Merchant, Raid Crates, and related raid sinks described in Raids. Earn them in raid content, spend them on materials or crates that fill roster gaps, and keep a reserve for merchant rotations you actually need.

Trade-ready
Only after combat coverage is safe should you treat exclusives as liquid. Trade value and combat value diverge; wallets like Slopbux are flavor, not a scam shield.
