Making money in Starsand Island doesn’t have to be a chore, but if you want to earn a lot of money very fast, there will be some grinding to do!
You can make money in various ways, many of which can be combined into one task. The best ways to make money utilize your newly acquired skills, and can help you further your profession at the same time. Here is everything you need to know about making money quickly in Starsand Island.
How To Earn Money In Starsand Island
Money is essential for buying blueprints, recipes, and expanding your plot, so you’ll want to save as much as possible while you explore the island. There are a few ways to make money in Starsand Island regularly:
- Selling fish
- Selling fruit and vegetables
- Selling crafted items
- Selling unwanted gifts
- Completing community requests from the Bulletin Board
- Completing the Stamp Collection
There are some simple ways to boost your income as you play, including fishing and farming. Both of these produce items you can sell in bulk for quite a lot of money, especially in the early days.
Crafted items can take a bit more work, but can be very profitable once you have a good crafting setup in place. It can be a good way to make money from spare crafted resources you want to get rid of, or make space in your storage chests and inventory.
Discovering new fish and plants fills up your Islandpedia, which helps you complete your Stamp Cards to earn some money. Those animals and plants can then be sold for profit or processed into materials to be used in crafting, which can then be sold for even more.
It is also good to check the Bulletin Board every day to see if any NPCs want to buy your items. Often, the reward for completing the requests offers much more than you would get by just selling them.
Selling unwanted gifts and home decor items can be a good way to top up your cash, as these just sit in your Home Decro tab of your backpack.
Best Fish And Farming Items To Sell
There is no way to guarantee which fish you will catch, so we recommend fishing in all water types, during all different times of day. This will help you unlock more types, filling your stamp card quicker.
You start the game in the Summer, so the fish you’ll catch will be specific to that season. The most expensive fish you can catch during that time will be in the ocean and rivers:
- Lionfish (Ocean): 176 Coins
- Emperor Angelfish (Ocean): 152 Coins
- Snakehead (River: 163 Coins
- Payara (River): 129 Coins
Although those fish will give you a huge profit, any fish you catch are worth selling. If you are also farming, you should plow as much of your land as you can and purchase Wheat, Pasture Grass and Beetroot seeds to grow quick and easy plants. After that, you can level up and start planting different crops.
These will sell well during the early days, and although they aren’t worth as much as the fish, you can grow them without much interference, making them very efficient items to sell.
As an Apprentice Farmer, the best items to grow and sell are:
- Cucumber: 66 Coins
- Garlic: 27 Coins
- Water Spinach: 24 Coins
- Cabbage: 22 Coins
