To manage money in Monopoly Go, you must first know how to earn it. There are different ways to earn money in the game, and this segment lists some of them below to help you:

  • Keep the dice rolling: When you roll the dice, the pawn travels to different tiles on the board. You can earn money upon landing on almost all the tiles apart from the ‘Jail,’ ‘Free,’ and Tax tiles. Besides, you can earn 400 cash every time you cross the ‘Start’ tile.
  • Take rent: You will get house tokens for upgrading and managing your buildings, which, once placed on a tile, will earn you rent upon landing on it if another player is there. The more house tokens you have on a particular tile, the more rent you get.
  • Bank Heists and Shutdowns: There are four 'Railroad' tiles on your board on each map. Upon landing on them, you can travel to other players' cities either to shut down their buildings or to perform a heist and rob money from their banks.
