Pay Bills

Pay Bills is an app available on the phone in TCG Card Shop Simulator. It is used to pay the 3 types of bills incurred while running the shop: rent, electric, and employee salaries.

Failure to pay these bills on time can result in the player's balance going negative, preventing further purchases or restocking.

Types of Bills

Rent

Calculated based on the size of the shop.
The base rent starts at $50 and increases with each expansion purchased through RENO BIGG.
Larger shops with more expansions incur higher rent costs.

Electric

This bill is determined daily by the shop's light usage.
Lights continue to consume electricity after 9 PM, even when the in-game clock stops.
To save on electric costs:
- Perform restocking and shop changes during the day using natural light.
- Avoid using lights unnecessarily, although this may hinder visibility at night.
Fully expanded shops generally see a maximum electric cost increase of around $50 if lights are used judiciously.

Salary

Based on the daily wages of employees hired through GO Recruit.
Each staff member has a fixed daily salary cost, which adds to the total bill.
Salaries are directly tied to the number and type of employees hired.

Tips for Managing Bills

Use daylight effectively to minimize electric costs.
Hire only the necessary staff to keep salary expenses manageable.
Expand the shop cautiously to avoid steep increases in rent.
