Currency

Welcome to the wasteland where old-world pennies are no longer an acceptable form of currency. Instead, bottlecaps (caps) rule the wasteland!

Use our bottle caps to purchase everything you need to survive the wasteland. No other currencies are accepted at POX-ECLIPSE.

Bottle Caps are available for purchase at the event bank.

Please be aware that it is typical for other wastelanders to have caps as souvenirs and trophies, only official POX-ECLIPSE caps are accepted as payment.

There are three bottle caps available at $1.00, $2.50 and $5 increments.

Caps are used at food vendors, in Bartertown and between survivors. Unless otherwise signed, we encourage bartering in Bartertown.

The Bank allows survivors to buy more caps and sell back unused caps. EFTPOS and cash transactions are welcome at The Bank. However, if you plan on using cash; caps must be bought in increments of $50 or EXACT change as we won’t have a large cash float on site.

Bank opening hours:

- 10th Oct 1pm-8pm

- 11th Oct 9am-8pm

- 12th Oct 9am-8pm

- 13th Oct 7am-midday

Caps lose their value at the end of POX-ECLIPSE; midday on the 13th of October as the event and bank close. Participants must sell any remaining caps they have back to the bank by this time.. Transfer of caps to cash attracts a 20% fee to cover transfer costs. We encourage attendees to spend all caps before the event finishes or keep any small change as souvenirs where possible.

We encourage participants to bring a pouch or something similar to store their caps.
