Gleamium

Gleamium is the game's sole premium currency that players can purchase with real world money in the in-game store. They are currently available in bundles and range in price from $4.99 to $99.99.

Gleamium is primarily used to purchase cosmetics and extras in the game, as well as unlock and progress the Battle Pass, although you can also use them to purchase characters.

Variants are cosmetic skins that give characters an alternate appearance. Most are available for purchase using Gleamium while others require completing milestones in the game's Battle Pass.

In-Game Currency

Fighter Currency

Fighter currency is an in-game currency that is used to unlock characters. Their predecessor during the open beta was the Character Token currency, which can no longer be gained but is still usable for the same purpose of character unlocking if you have any left over from the beta.

Available Through Gameplay

Fighter currency is gained completely in-game by participating in events and Rift mode gameplay, and by progressing your Battle Pass, Account Mastery, and Character Mastery.

Perk Currency

Perk currency is an in-game currency that is used to unlock in-game perks that provide various buffs and advantages to Fighters.

Available Through Gameplay

Just like Fighter currency, Perk currency is gained completely in-game by participating in events and Rift mode gameplay, and by progressing your Battle Pass, Account Mastery, and Character Mastery.

Additionally, if you participated in the Open Beta before the official launch, you will receive an allotment of Perk currency when you first launch the game based on the number of perks you unlocked during the Beta.

Prestige Currency

Prestige currency is an in-game currency and the only way to unlock Prestige cosmetics, the rarest cosmetics available in MultiVersus.

Available Through Acquiring Cosmetics

Prestige currency is gained every time you acquire a cosmetic, with a specific amount earned depending on the type and rarity of cosmetic. Additionally, if you participated in the Open Beta before the official launch, you will receive an allotment of Prestige currency when you first launch the game based on the number of cosmetics you acquired during the Beta.

Toast

Toast is a special in-game currency that can be used to congratulate players after a match and rewards 5 Fighter Currency for each Toast a player receives. Each player can Toast up to five times per day, with this replenishing the next day.
