Our guide on How-to Get Pokemon Go Coins features the best and easiest ways to accumulate this currency! We'll be taking a look at defending Gyms and what you can earn per day, as well as what coins can be used for to purchase.
There are currently only two real options to collecting PokeCoins in Pokemon Go. Your first is leaving Pokemon to defend Gyms, and this is a totally free way to earn coins. You'll want to be on top of this everyday, making sure you are collecting the maximum you can obtain. The second and easiest way is to throw money at the problem. You can purchase PokeCoins with real money and get all the items you want! I'm going to go into detail on both of these methods below.

Is There Coin Hacks or Generators?

There might be hacks available, but I would steer clear of these as much as possible. These would be a good way to quickly lose your account, and I don't think you'd want to lose all the work you've put into it. Most hacks are likely scams, and you could get malware on your devices or potentially download a virus!

How-to Get Coins from Gyms

You can earn some coins each day from leaving them at a gym. Your Pokemon will earn a coin every 10 minutes it occupied a Gym. You can have multiple Pokemon in different Gyms earning coins. The maximum amount of coins you can get from all of your Pokemon in Gyms per day is 50. That's not 50 each, that's 50 in total.
There's also a bit of a catch to this system. Your Pokemon has to be defeated and returned to you before you collect the coins. So, if your Pokemon is stuck in the Gym for a week, it can only possibly bring you back 50 coins.
So, you only want one of your Pokemon to return per day because you won't gain any additional coins after 50 no matter how long it has been in the Gym.

Purchasing PokeCoins

The main and most efficient way to get PokeCoins is to buy them with real money. There are many different options available to you if you want to spend a lot or a little. You are encouraged to purchase more because you get more bang for your bucks if you spend more money.
  • 100 PokeCoins: $0.99 USD
  • 550 PokeCoins: $4.99 USD
  • 1,200 PokeCoins: $9.99 USD
  • 2,500 PokeCoins: $19.99 USD
  • 5,200 PokeCoins: $39.99 USD
  • 14,500 PokeCoins: $99.99 USD

What Can You Buy With PokeCoins?

You can buy a ton of different items when it comes to using PokeCoins. You've got the ability to get Poke Balls, Lure Modules, Egg Incubators, Premium Raid Passes, Lucky Eggs, Max Potions, Incense, Max Revives, Bag Upgrade, Pokemon Storage Upgrade, and different cosmetics for your avatar!
Keep in mind that a lot of these items can be gotten by spinning PokeStops! Think twice before purchasing any items that you can get by walking around town. This is especially the case where it comes to Poke Balls, Revives, and Potions. Stuff like Revives, Potions, Poke Balls, Lure Modules, Lucky Eggs, Incense and Egg Incubators can be earned by leveling up your character.
Sales on certain items do occasionally take place, so keep an eye out for news of any events.
