Why do I have to pay for the Piggy Bank?

Hello @stephme70, and welcome to our wonderful community! I do agree that it can be frustrating to have to pay to “collect your earnings,” but having customers pay for the piggy bank is actually reasonable. How so? Firstly, If the piggy bank was always free, then the company may not profit as much, if at all. In addition, I think that the game may be too easy if you got it for free all the time. However, I do think that it wouldn’t hurt to have your first 2 or so piggy banks for free, then pay for each one after that. Just remember these two points: First, you are never forced to make any in-app purchases to work your way through the game. You can play the game completely and entirely for free. Secondly, the piggy bank was actually invented as a way to offer a discount on gold bars. You can see this clearly if you compare prices and quantities in their in-game shop. I hope this answers your question, and I wish you and your family a wonderful and joyful holiday season! 

I totally agree with Stephme70

So, why not make the piggy bank itself an in app purchase. Let us earn the gold bars and then make it so that we either have to pay real money to store them or pay in gold bars to rent the piggy bank. I know ppl want to make money. But this is a game and a free game. If you wanted high rollers, maybe you should create one and charge for it

@mablemae Hi and welcome. The piggy bank feature is an in app purchase it gives you the chance to purchases gold bars at a greatly reduced rate. compare this to the store and you will see the difference . The choice is there for you if you wish to use this feature or not so it is still a free game

Thank you
