Since Playground Games removed the Infinite Money Glitch at the end of 2021, earning money quickly in Forza Horizon 5 has become more difficult, but there are still a few tricks. Our Forza Horizon 5 Easy Money guide will show you how it’s done!
Table of Contents
1) What do you need money for in Forza Horizon 5?
In the world of Forza, you can never have enough money. The currency is neither euros nor dollars, but credits. Huge sums of credit are exchanged for every car and every house. If you want a fast car or a noble accommodation, you need to know how to earn money in Forza Horizon 5.
With the necessary financial power, you can own a total of 577 cars and 7 player houses, the first of which is given to you at the beginning of the game. The houses cost between 150,000 and 5 million credits. And even for the fastest cars, 7-digit amounts of money are due.
2) How can you earn money in Forza Horizon 5?
In Forza Horizon 5, you can make money in multiple ways. Even if you don’t pay attention and just play, your digital wallet will fill up. Experience points (EP) aren’t that important in Forza 5. However, every level up you achieve through them brings you additional income, for example, in the form of wheelspins.
Your primary source of income is to participate in races and, in the best case, win them. Not exactly unusual for a racing simulation. We’ll tell you which tracks bring in the most money and with which cars your opponents don’t stand a chance.
The fastest cars in the game are:
- Lamborghini Sesto Elemento
- Formula drift #34 Toyota Supra MKIV
- Koenigsegg Jesko
- Mitsubishi Lancer Evolution X GSR
- BMW X5 M
As for the races that make the most money, you can remember as a rule of thumb: The longer, the better. The more kilometers you have to cover, the higher the prize money.
You should participate in the Gauntlet, Goliath, and Colossus to farm money as soon as possible. Although these are only unlocked after completing a few events, they will bring you the most rewarding compensation.
Last but not least, skill points (or championship points) are one of the general ways to earn money in Forza Horizon 5. You get these by drifting, performing stunts, and basically doing everything you might avoid doing in a serious race.
Break stuff, almost collide with opposing vehicles, drive way too fast and thus way too risky, take advantage of the slipstream, do burnouts and go for crazy jumps; all of this is not only a lot of fun but gives you skill points that you can directly exchange for credits.

3) Forza Horizon 5 easy money – Fast ways
Wheelspins and Super-Wheelspins
Competing in races is, of course, only one part and also a relatively slow way to increase your bank balance. Therefore, you rightly wonder how to earn money in Forza Horizon 5. Our first tip is to use wheelspins and super wheelspins.
Let’s talk about how to get them. As mentioned before, you get them by leveling up. Festival playlist challenges include drop spins and spending skill points to get car masteries. Buying certain houses and completing specific awards and car collections will also earn you wheelspins.
If you buy the Hotel Castillo (for 5 million credits), you’ll even secure a permanent source of wheelspins without doing anything else. Just owning the property will provide you with one free spin per day. And of course, you can also buy wheelspins in the Forzathon store for real money.
Let’s start with the wheelspins themselves. What exactly do they offer you as a player? In essence, they are a game of chance. You start a spin and have the chance to win either a little money, a lot of money, or even a car. Cars, in turn, can be sold and thus converted into credits. Any car you no longer need, especially cars you own twice, should be sold to do something good for your wallet.
The Auction House
Second tip: The auction house. It works similarly to the one in WoW, except that no role-playing game items are traded here, but car-specific ones are. For example, you can sell your items to other players or buy something at auction.
One method of saving credits with the help of the auction house is sniping. You can find sellers who sell their cars for less than they are worth. To get to them, you first look at the dealer price of a car at the car show.
Then, you search the auction house for sellers who advertise the model you’ve chosen, filtering for offers significantly below the regular price. As soon as you find one, you buy it immediately before someone else does.
You can then sell the car you got for a higher price. However, you should remember that the demand for cars on the marketplace in Forza Horizon 5 is much lower than the supply. Unless a weekly promotion requires a specific vehicle, most models will only be sold for small sums.
This leads us to another method in the auction house, regular bidding. Here, the key is to hit the festival stages at the right time and be quick when bargains are on offer. The excitement that can arise, especially in the last few minutes of an exciting listing, can be compared to the adrenaline rush of finding a fat bargain or a good deal on eBay.
You can find the auction house in the pause screen under the item Buy and Sell. Each offer can run for a maximum of 24 hours, and there are minimum and maximum prices for each car. However, there is plenty of room to make quite a few bucks cleverly.
The Car Mastery
Our third tip is the car mastery. You can find it under the Cars tab in the middle on the right. You can invest your skill or ability points to get perks and bonuses here. Each car has unlockable fields, and five secret cars are hidden within the car mastery that you can add to your fleet.
The rewards you get for spending your points in the car mastery trees of your cars can be the following:
- Experience points (frequent)
- Wheelspins (frequent)
- Credits (often)
- Super Wheelspins (rare)
- Cars (very rare)
