Whether you're aiming to build up your dice reserves, stock up on high-tier sticker packs, or complete your album during events, mastering the Vault system can give you a serious edge.
What Are Vaults in Monopoly GO?
In the course of collecting stickers—especially during major events or heavy grinding—it's inevitable you'll get duplicates. Instead of letting them pile up with no purpose, Monopoly GO turns these extras into something useful: Stars. Each duplicate earns you Stars depending on its rarity, and once you collect enough, you can trade them in for Vaults.
Vaults act like mystery boxes, offering rewards such as free dice rolls, cash, and various types of sticker packs. The better the Vault, the more Stars it costs—but the bigger the rewards you'll receive. Vaults are found in the "Stickers for Rewards" section under the Albums tab, and you can only open one per day, so choosing the right time and Vault type is important.
Vault Types and Their Rewards
Vaults are generally divided into tiers based on how many Stars you spend. Lower-tier Vaults might cost a few hundred Stars and offer modest rewards like sticker packs or smaller amounts of dice. Higher-tier Vaults can reward you with up to 500 dice, premium sticker packs (including Pink, Blue, or Purple), and even Swap Packs.
Opening a Vault during a Sticker Boom event is an excellent strategy, as the sticker packs inside will give you additional cards, maximizing your value. This is especially useful when you're trying to complete those last few pages of an album or hunting for high-star duplicates.
How to Earn More Stars
Stars are earned every time you collect a duplicate sticker. The number of Stars you gain depends on the type and rarity of the card:
Regular 1-star duplicates will net you 1 Star
A5-star regular duplicate will give you 5 Stars
A4-star gold sticker earns around 8 Stars
A5-star gold duplicate can give you 10 Stars
So if you're grinding through events or opening packs during a Blitz, you're constantly building up a reserve of Stars behind the scenes.
Want to earn even more Stars? Focus on sticker sources like:
Quick Wins: These refresh daily and often reward free sticker packs
In-game events and tournaments: These are prime sources of high-quality sticker packs
Minigames like Tycoon Racers and Dig Events
Monopoly GO Partners Events, which can yield Purple or Swap Packs
Free shop gifts, which occasionally include sticker packs
As you build your stash of stickers, your Vault potential grows as well.
Partner Events and Vault Synergy
If you're participating in a Monopoly Go Partners Event, Vaults become even more important. Sticker packs gained from high-tier Vaults (especially Purple or Swap Packs) can help you complete 4- and 5-star sets, which are often needed to finish Partner builds and collect the best rewards. Planning Vault openings to line up with these events can give you a huge advantage.
For players who don’t have the time to grind or time their openings perfectly, using a monopoly go carry service is a smart way to automate progress and still keep up with competitive players. These services can help with tournaments, Partner Events, and even building up your Stars consistently.
Spend Stars Before the Season Ends
One final but crucial tip: Stars reset at the end of every album season. If you don’t spend them before the current Sticker Album closes, they’ll automatically be converted to dice—usually at a fixed, capped rate. This means you could lose out on far more valuable rewards that come from Vaults. To get the most value from your duplicates, always plan to open your Vaults well before the season ends.
