Set Your Stardew Valley Gold

Upload your save, pick or type a new gold amount, download the edited file. Rewrites the money tag and nothing else — runs entirely in your browser.

Drop your save file here

or click to browse — look for FarmerName_Id inside your Saves folder

Your save never leaves this browser.

Reading, editing, and downloading all happen on your device. Nothing is uploaded, sent to a server, or stored anywhere outside your browser.

How it works

  1. 1. Find your save in %AppData%\StardewValley\Saves (Windows) or ~/.config/StardewValley/Saves (Mac/Linux). Each farm has a folder named FarmerName_Id.
  2. 2. Drop the file with no extension inside that folder (the same name as the folder). Skip SaveGameInfo and any _old backups.
  3. 3. Type any amount up to 999,999,999g, or tap a quick-pick (10k, 100k, 1M, etc).
  4. 4. Download + replace. The edited file comes back with the same name. Drop it into the same folder, overwriting the original. (Back up first if you want to be safe.)

Frequently asked questions

Is this safe? Will the file still work in-game?
Yes. The tool rewrites the <money> tag inside the <player> block and writes everything else back unchanged, byte for byte. Stardew loads the file normally. Back up first if you want belt-and-braces safety; the original is what you uploaded.
Does my save get uploaded anywhere?
No. The file is read, edited, and downloaded entirely in your browser. Nothing crosses the network. You can verify with browser DevTools → Network tab.
What's the maximum gold I can set?
999,999,999g (just under 1 billion). Stardew's int32 ceiling is higher, but combining huge amounts with end-of-day shipping income on rich saves can overflow into negative territory and crash the day-end widget. The cap leaves a safe margin.
Will this affect achievements or the perfection tracker?
Gold-related achievements ("Greenhorn", "Cowpoke", "Homesteader", "Millionaire", "Legend") fire when your TOTAL EARNED money crosses thresholds, not when current gold goes up. Setting your money here doesn't auto-unlock those — you still need to earn the income normally. Perfection isn't affected at all.
Why does the load-game menu still show my old gold?
The save-select screen reads from the second file in your save folder, SaveGameInfo, which this tool doesn't touch. The game rewrites that file the first time you sleep, so the menu catches up after one in-game night — in the game itself the new balance shows immediately.
Does this also set gold for other players in a multiplayer save?
No. The tool only touches the host's <player> block. Each farmhand has their own gold balance and would need to be handled separately.
Does this work on console or mobile?
Consoles, no — PlayStation, Xbox, and Switch don't expose save files. Mobile, yes: Android and iOS use the same save format as PC. On Android the save folder is Android/data/com.chucklefish.stardewvalley/files/Saves (the files may carry a .bin extension — keep it when you replace them). On iOS, open the Files app and go to On My iPhone → Stardew Valley.
