Hi there,

In the past there were complaints that not many people were going to market to be hired to work, so the developers added the bonus chest to encourage people to go there. Those that are not neighbours and buddies will earn the bonus chest.

I just finished fishing a stacked fish farm and accumulated 11.8+ million coins. I clicked on Bonus to receive it and got a message that it was saved. But when I went back to the Marketplace, my bank had not been updated to reflect the 11.8 million coins I should have received. Please help

Hi Tazman

When you see your coins on your farm you are not seeing the complete amount so that the last 2 numbers are not showed. To see the complete amount you need to hover the mouse on the amount of coins.

For example: If you see, let say 7.070.719.5 when you hover the mouse on that amount you will see 7.070.719.570

Please check that to see if the amount of coins collected are there.

I have lost a lot of coins working at my neighbors farms. I should get compensated for the work I do at that particular timel. instead of waiting to complete the work, if I do not see further work to be done.to complete it. That should be something for consideration. Thank you.

Hi addymom

I moved your post from Suggestions to Help & Support to be able to answer you

You are always compensated while working other farms:

For crops, you receive 25% of the selling price of the crop you harvest and 10% of the crops.

For plowing, you gain 5c and 1 XP for each field plowed.

For fishing, you recieve about 50% of the fish.

If you are talking about not receiving the bonus chest, it is only for strangers, it doesnt apply to neighbors and buddies.

Hi Carol888,

Are you talking about when you work your own farms or when you are hired to work other peoples farms?

If you're working your own farms you just get the products, no coins, for harvesting, chopping, fishing etc. You also do not earn xp for those jobs. You do earn xp for plowing, seeding and working your facilities. Plowing will also always cost you coins. You will receive 1 XP for each plot that is plowed no matter who does the plowing. Doing your own plowing it cost 20 coins per plot. When you hire a neighbor/friend it costs 10 coins per plot to plow. When you hire a stranger it costs 15 coins per plot to plow.


When you get hired to work on other peoples farm(s) you will get the following:

Crops: When you harvest crops for someone else you will receive 25% of the selling price of the crop that you are harvesting and you will receive 10% of the crop that you are harvesting.

Trees, flowers and fishing: When you harvest trees, flowers, chop trees or fish you will get 100% of the selling price instead of 25% like you get for the crops, since the crops you would receive more coins when selling, this was changed to try and balance out what the employee received for trees, flowers and fishing. You will also receive 50% of what you harvest, chop or fish compared to the 10% for the crops.

Plowing: When you plow someone else's farm you gain 5 coins and get 1 XP for each plot you plow.

Hi itsmemel,
Your name will only change to red if when in the market you click on your avatar and choose Change Status and sellect the red status for hiring.
It may not be that they are not getting the request, but that they have not accepted it instead or they got another one from someone else before you sent yours.
