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!















It’s October 3 and my game has already gone back to the original reward level. That stinks– I guess we were all moving too fast.
so is mine, this payout should be the standard-every-day payout.
I want my extra day back!

Mine has finished early. Gone back to 1 regular 2 premium
Did anyone notice that the it’s bo longer 4x rewards?
Looks like October 4 came a day early? 4X multiplier not working this morning on my tasks…. Anyone else having this issue?
What???? My 4x multiplier is gone today!
So it’s the 3rd of oct here in Australia. So the us is behind us. But my 4 x payouts have ended. Anyone else have this same issue ?
Its not the 4th of Oct yet and my 4x is gone only earning normal 1x now! Anyone else experiencing this?
Hey it’s not even the 4th. Why is the payout back to normal?
mines reverted to 1x pay out this morning 🙁
Looks like it’s finished early?
It seems to be this offer ended before its date. Ended 4 hours ago here in Spain and all over apparently https://forums.ea.com/en/the-simpsons-tapped-out/discussion/81776/springfield-heights-4x-quit-before-october-4th
doesnt work anymore…3th of october so it should..
I was enjoying hitting 500m and on track for the top prize but it looks as it the x4 stopped this morning? I thought it ended tomorrow?

It’s October 3 and the multiplier is gone 😩
Hey! What happened? It’s 9.30pm Oct. 3rd (in Australia) and my 4 x payouts have stopped.
Has anyone else had this happen?

the 4x payouts have stopped in my springfield. it happened in the last few hours which obviously way before the 4th Oct cut off. Especially as I used 150 donuts to get jasper to help with the upgrades requiring pills. Can anyone confirm??
Does this seem to have ended early for anyone else? I’m only getting single resources again all of a sudden 🙁
I suppose all good things must come to an end early… I no longer have the 4x SH currency and it is only the 3rd… anyone else experiencing this?
Seems to be a glitch. The items are paying out at regular (no bonus) rate.
I thought the 4x multiplier bonus was running until 4th October? I logged in this morning to get stockpiling and upgrading my remaining buildings in SH but the multiplier had disappeared and I am now getting the original amounts (1 for freemium 2 for premium). Anyone else experiencing this?
Noooo! October 3 11am GMT and its gone back to the normal payout! Whats going on EA?!
SUPER excited about this addition…but when i woke up this morning it seems to have stopped. Do you know anything about it ending early? As far as I can tell by my research, today is only Oct 3…
Well, it seems like the payouts have ended a tad early… 🙁
It’s just the AM of the 3rd, and my SH is back to normal payouts. That’s sad, because this was helping a LOT towards furthering my SH area. Honestly, I kinda wish it would stay like that, at least until they do a new expansion for it.
Logged in today and resources aren’t paying out 4x…and it’s only the 3rd..:/ still got way to go! Anyone else getting this?
Early morning of October 3, getting 1x again.
Hi. I just woke up and went straight to Tapped Out to begin producing more resources but was disappointed to see that everything is back to normal. I thought the 4x Springfield Heights was supposed to go through the 4th. What happened? I was loving increased resources. Is anyone else having this issue?
Hey, I thought the 4x payout bonus was available until October 4th? It’s just the 3rd now and the 4x bonus isn’t there for me anymore. What’s going on?

It’s October 3 and at 3:13 am I noticed my 4x multiplier was gone already. I was so close to getting most of my buildings leveled.Ugh
It’s stopped working for me a whole day early !!! 😉
I’m back to normal earnings on heights actions.
