Cash Out & Exchange · Updated for 1.3.1

What happened to Prospectour Cash Out?

Cash Out remains temporarily absent from the Market. Players can currently spend gems on nuggets or discounted Land Credits instead.

Status reviewed 11 September 2026: Cash Out remains temporarily unavailable in version 1.3.1. The current Exchange screen says gems, nuggets and land are game items with no cash value.

The two current gem exchanges

Gems to nuggets

4 gems = 1 nugget. A slider lets you choose the amount to exchange rather than forcing the entire balance.

Gems to Land Credit

An early Land Credit costs 2,520 gems and claims any square outright. That is 10% less than exchanging 2,800 gems for the 700 nuggets required to buy the same early square.

Important Exchange rules

  • Gem exchanges are final.
  • They only work in one direction: exchanged nuggets or land do not turn back into gems.
  • Exchange rates may change at any time.
  • A stored Land Credit is used automatically on your next claim, before nuggets are touched.

What about the former dollar conversion?

Earlier builds displayed a planned cash-out rail using 1,000 gems = $1 and a 5,000-gem minimum. That option is no longer present in the 1.2.0 Market and must not be treated as a current cash value. Prospectour describes the removal as temporary, but no return date is stated.

How long to earn a Land Credit?

The answer depends on your rarity mix, boost hours and collection routine. Enter your estate and current balance to estimate the time to 2,520 gems or compare the direct 4:1 nugget exchange.

How to evaluate the game safely

  • Do not spend money you need to recover.
  • Treat nugget packs as entertainment purchases.
  • If you choose to buy, compare the current 10% website-only prices in our Shop guide before purchasing in the app.
  • Recheck the official terms and final price before payment.
  • Ignore third-party claims of guaranteed passive income.
