Update 10/3: And hopefully many of you will look at this…there are LOADS of comments about it ending early. Yes. There’s a glitch impacting some players…not all. But rather than copy and past the same response t0 100+ comments, please see this post
Hey Howdy Hey Tappers!
So something new rolled out this morning in our pocket-sized Springfields….4x payout on all Springfield Heights currency!
What does this mean? How does it work? Let’s take a look…
4x Rewards are only available until October 4th…
When you log into your game today you’ll see (or you already saw) this conversation popup:
And then the message above about Springfield Heights paying out FOUR TIMES the normal rate. So what does it mean?
Well it means that whatever the payout for anything that awarded Springfield Heights currency it’s now multiplied by FOUR…
For your Buildings (Furniture Shop, Coffee, Pharmaceuticals, etc..)…they’re all now paying out FOUR for Freemium and EIGHT for Premium (instead of 1 and 2).
For the Googolplex…it’s now paying out TWENTY for all movies, instead of 5. And as an added bonus, right now all movies are FREE to play! It appears that the free option on the Googolplex has been patched. This means you don’t need to spend in-game cash to earn the currency. Basically, EVERYONE that has the Googolplex should be utilizing it over the next few days to earn as much currency as they can! And remember, using the Googolplex is the only way you can add over your storage capacity of currency…in other words. Use the heck out of it!
Also mini games that pay our SH Currency, like the Insanity game or the Sci-Fighter game..are now paying out FOUR times the regular reward you may earn!
Basically this is a fantastic way to stock up on SH currency, max out those hideaways…and maybe finish SH if you haven’t already done so..
(oh and for those stuck on 2 billion Real Estate…that appears to be the max amount of Real Estate points you can earn, which is why you won’t see it increase)
Remember…4x rewards ends October 4th
What are your thoughts on the four times value for SH currency? Will you be running it like crazy to stock up while you can? Utilizing it to finish off heights? Sound off in the comments below, you know we love hearing from you!















The 4x payout has stopped in my game today. Strange, it is not 4 October already.
This morning my resources reset ro the normal payouts although it is only Oct 3. Any know if EA is working on this fix?
Major prob. I am from Asia and my SH currency earned just switched back to normal earning rate without multiplier. Isn’t this supposed to end only on Oct 4? My local time now is 5pm on Oct 3 while US time is 4am on Oct 3. Can anyone pls help to ask or feedback to EA? Does anyone have the same issue? Losing precious time to earn currency. Without multiplier it will take me ages to reach a billion. I now have 700M.
Help, the 4x rewards are already gone in my game… allthough it’s still the third… anyone experiencing the same?
Augh. The 4x multiplier ended early, I think at 1AM Pacific on Monday 10/3, right as I was finishing a late Sunday night round of grinding up toward that recently-much-easier-to-see 1 Billion real estate mark. Only made it to about 850 Million, but that’s over triple what I had before this week.
Hope this was just an error and EA actually bring it back for a couple more days so I can get over that hump, unlock Paris Texas and be done with SH for good.
It’s only 09:45, 3rd October (UK) and the 4x multiplier has already ended! Anyone else experienced this?
I just played tsto a few minutes ago, and suddenly it doesn’t 4x rewards anymore. What happened?
The game says it’s until 4th oct!?
Is this supposed to finish tomorrow? The rewards have gone back to normal in my game already 🙁
I’ve been diligently working to finish upgrading everything in SH since the rewards are now reasonable to earn but the 4x payout quit early on me! At 1:00 am PST on October 3, not Octover 4! Is anyone else seeing this? I hope they correct this and give us some more time. I was finally getting everything done!
My x4 has gone a day early ?
My 4x rewards ended a day early. Anyone else have this happen? All other limited time prizes and items are still in the store, but all my SHA currency is back to normal payout
looks like it stopped early for me. back to 1 item grind. arghhh!!
Hi everyone, first post here!
I am really disappointed that the x4 rate in Heights is already over… I mean, I live in France, it is October 3 in the morning here ! And the extra rate is already over… Is it the same for you?
Welcome 🙂 It’s a bug impacting some. Please see this post:
http://tstoaddicts.com/2016/10/03/alert-sh-4x-currency-ended-early/
My SH payouts returned to 1x at 3am EDT. What the what? I thought it was supposed to last until the 4th!
The bonus has just ended for me which is early. Has anyone else had it finish early?
This ended already!! It was supposed to last until 10/4!
Did anybody else also lose the 4x multiplier, or is it just me? It’s not yet even October 4 🙁
My game has already gone back to regular payout… Has this happened to anyone else??
That damn time warp black hole is acting up again. Here it is before 3am on October 2nd (supposedly) and I am not getting my 4 times bonus for Springfield Heights grinding. My tablet must have fallen through the rip in space making it think it is October 4th already.
Now it reset to normal. not even until 04 october. Does Anyone has a same problem?
My SH buildings and the Googolplex have stopped paying out at the 4x rate, even though it’s only October 3rd. Anyone else having the same problem?
My 4x multiplier just vanished.. Meaning I’m back at earning one at a time.. I’m in the CET (Central Europe Time) timezone.
Has anybody else experienced this? – And how do I fix it?
My 4x multiplier suddenly disappeared. Rate reverted back to 1x. It’s not even October 4 yet. Huhu
In my game the payout isn’t multiplied by four anymore. Does anyone else encounter this problem too?
My Springfield went back to the regular payout, and it’s only The 3rd (a whole day early) – does anyone know what’s up with this?
It’s not October 4th yet & the bonuses has already stopped!
It’s early morning 3rd of October here in Denmark and the rewards already went back to normal instead of 4x?! Has anyone else experienced that?
The Springfield Heights 4x experience event seems to have ended early!!! It’s October 3rd only not the 4th and the rewards are back down to normal! What happened?!??
It’s only the third and the payout ended! I thought this went till tomorrow?
Hi,
My Springfield heights was paying out x4 but has suddenly stopped and returned to 1x.
The payout was until the 4th October. Can someone please advise.
