How to make 💵 Money in Infinite Craft
Step-by-step recipe, cheapest path first — everything below is crafted from the four starting elements.
How to make 💵 Money — step by step
The cheapest known path. Craft each step in order — every ingredient is either a basic element or something you make earlier in this list.
- Earth + Water = PlantBoth Earth and Water come straight from your starting elements — craft Plant first, everything else in this chain depends on it.
- Earth + Plant = TreeTree is a stepping stone — keep it in your inventory, later steps build directly on it.
- Plant + Wind = DandelionIf you already made Dandelion in an earlier session you can skip this one and move on.
- Earth + Wind = DustOne quick craft for Dust: drag Earth onto Wind and keep the result for the chain.
- Dandelion + Dust = WishWish is only needed as an ingredient — make it once, don't farm extra copies.
- Tree + Wish = MoneyFinal craft: combine Tree and Wish to make Money. That's the whole path — 6 crafts total.

Why this is the cheapest path to Money
We rank every known recipe for Money by total crafts from the four starting elements, not just by the final combination. The two direct ingredients — Tree and Wish — cost 3 and 5 crafts to build from scratch, which is why the whole chain above needs only 6 crafts. The alternatives in the table below are ranked the same way: their "approx. cost" is the pricier ingredient plus one, so you can see at a glance which route actually saves you crafts — and which ones quietly waste five.
Alternative combinations for Money
| Combination | Approx. cost |
|---|---|
| Diamond + Tsunami | 7 crafts |
| Earth + Gold | 9 crafts |
| Gold + Water | 9 crafts |
| Paper + Swamp | 7 crafts |
| Car Wash + Water | 10 crafts |
Any valid combo works — pick the ingredients you already have.
What can you make with Money?
Money is a busy ingredient. In the community dataset it shows up in dozens of downstream recipes: pair it with Planet and you get Earth; pair it with Smoke and you get Fire; pair it with Smoke Detector and you get Fire; pair it with Match and you get Fire; pair it with Burn and you get Fire; pair it with Firetruck and you get Fire. Crafted items are never consumed, so one copy keeps working.
Tips for crafting Money
- Craft in one sitting. The 6-craft chain for Money takes under two minutes once you know the route — the list above is already in dependency order, so just go top to bottom.
- Reuse your inventory. If you've played before you probably own the early intermediates (like Tree) already — skip straight to the first step you can't do.
- Missing an ingredient? Check the alternatives table — e.g. Diamond + Tsunami also produces Money if that route fits your inventory better.
