Tip - Since there are only a limited number of them, hold onto your favor credits as long as possible. Also, be sure that you don't waste them on items that you can get without spending credits. For example, don't waste your favor credits on coins since you can easily get them from purchasing some land.

Tip - You can also get lots of credits quickly by completing offers through the Robin Hood app. Don't waste your time on ones that cost money. Instead, check out the free offers and surveys for no-cost favor credits.
