# Game Currency

Like any game that features the buying and selling of materials, Coinracer has a digital currency that supports that economic model. The game currency is referred to as $CCASH, and can be acquired in a variety of fashions.

## How Do I Get It?

* Purchase with your credit card or debit card, as you would in any traditional game, via our partnered payment processor [SphereOne](https://www.sphereone.xyz/).
* Swap on-chain cryptocurrency tokens ($CRACER).
* By winning arcade game modes, special events, tournaments, and completing achievements/progressing your career.

## What Can I Do With It?

* Purchase new vehicles (see [getting started](https://documentation.coinracer.io/gameplay/getting-started)).
* Repair your vehicles (see [consumables](https://documentation.coinracer.io/gameplay/consumables)).
* Upgrade your vehicles (see [vehicle upgrades](https://documentation.coinracer.io/how-coinracer-works/core-features/vehicle-customization)).
* Compete in arcade game modes (see [race modes](https://documentation.coinracer.io/gameplay/race-modes)).

## Can I Earn Real Money With It?

Yes, that is one of the major benefits of blockchain integrations: eased distribution and transfer of liquid assets around the globe, in a matter of seconds. The $CCASH you earn in-game can swapped out for on-chain $CRACER tokens in one of our supported ecosystems. For our non-crypto users this is a great introduction to the Web3 space; however, in the future we will also support fiat cash-outs.
