Best ways to earn Gold in Clash Royale

Gold is the main in-game currency in Clash Royale. Earning Gold efficiently is key to upgrading your best cards and building a competitive deck. You can get Gold from Chests, Lucky Drops, Event Challenges, the in-game shop, and more. Here's how you can maximize your Gold reserves to win battles and defend your towers.

Keep your Chests cycling by opening them as soon as they’re available. You’ll get Gold from all types of Chests – Victory Chests, Lucky Drops, Crown Chests, and those earned from quests. Higher tier Chests (Magical, Super Magical, Giant) yield notably more Gold than Silver or Free chests.

When you play often, you’ll earn daily Victory bonuses and trigger Lucky Drops. Advancing on Trophy Road will also bring one-time Gold rewards as you hit each arena milestone. You’ll also get a small amount of Gold from Shop for logging in daily. Consistency adds up: even small gains will eventually add to a solid monthly contribution to your Gold safe.

Participate in Classic, Mega Draft, and Grand Challenges for high Gold payouts. While they require gems to enter, earning 12 wins in a row will net you thousands of Gold coins. Even shorter runs will provide worthwhile Gold and card rewards, setting you up for a while.

If you’re in a lurch, your Clan can help you earn some Gold as well. Donating cards nets you Gold each time. Common cards yield small amounts, while Epic and Max-level card donations are especially valuable. Clan Wars participation also grants Gold coins per win and a Clan War Chest based on your clan’s final standing.

Events like Path of Legends and Gold Rush offer tier-based Gold and card rewards. Climb ranks each season to unlock more Gold, with final placement earning you a bonus reward. The Free Pass Royale also delivers Gold crates, Lucky Drops, and Chest rewards as you collect crowns.

Gold farming in Clash Royale depends on daily activity, participation in special events, and smart use of clan systems. Focus on high-return activities, stay consistent, and you'll build a steady stream of gold to upgrade your deck efficiently.
