Wealth tax

Illustrations and screenshots may show Japanese labels. The text below explains the same features in English.

A weekly tax is automatically collected from eligible players whose balance exceeds 10,000 Spa Coins.

How the amount is calculated

The tax is 3% of the portion of your balance shown by /balance above 10,000 Spa Coins. Players with 10,000 Spa Coins or less pay nothing.

For example, a balance of 30,000 Spa Coins produces a tax of (30,000 − 10,000) × 3% = 600 Spa Coins.

Point: tax is collected every Monday at 5:00; if your balance is 10,000 or less, you pay nothing

When it is collected

Tax is collected every Monday at 05:00 (Japan Standard Time, JST).

It is collected only once per week.

Who is included

Players who have logged in since the previous collection are eligible. This includes players online at collection time.

Players who have not logged in at all during that week are not taxed.

Tax notifications

A chat message tells you how much was collected.

If you were offline when it was collected, the message arrives the next time you log in.

Why this tax exists

It gradually removes some of the money that accumulates in a small number of accounts, helping prevent an ever-growing money supply from undermining prices and value.

Taxed money is removed from circulation. It is not paid to anyone.
