Achievements Guide
All 44+ achievements in Tycoon Cards, organised by category, with the permanent bonuses each one grants.
How achievements work
Achievements are permanent milestones that unlock automatically the moment their underlying condition is met — no need to claim them manually. Each achievement grants a small but permanent bonus to click power, passive income, all income, or business costs, visible in the Achievements tab alongside a live progress bar.
The achievement categories
| Category | Count | Focus |
|---|---|---|
| Clicking | 5 | Rewards for total lifetime clicks, from your first 100 taps up to a million. |
| Lifetime Money | 6 | Lifetime earnings thresholds from your first thousand dollars to a trillion. |
| Businesses | 5 | Milestones for owning businesses, both in total quantity and full-tier diversity. |
| Cards | 8 | Pack-opening counts and collection-size milestones, up to owning all 1,000 cards. |
| Prestige | 5 | Rewards for prestiging repeatedly and accumulating prestige points. |
| Casino | 4 | Milestones for casino activity, including a rare 'beat the house' achievement. |
| Play Time | 4 | Long-term play milestones from your first hour to a full month. |
| Secret | 3 | Hidden achievements with unconventional conditions — see if you can find them all. |
| Stock Market | 4 | Portfolio value milestones in the stock market, from your first trade to a billion-dollar portfolio. |
How achievement bonuses stack
Every unlocked achievement's bonus is summed alongside your card bonuses of the same type before your final click power, passive income, and cost multipliers are calculated. A player with dozens of small achievement bonuses can rival the impact of several levelled cards.
Hidden & secret achievements
Tips for completing categories faster
- Clicking and money achievements unlock naturally through normal play — no detour required.
- Business achievements reward owning at least one of every tier, so don't neglect cheap early businesses even once you've moved on to bigger ones.
- Casino and stock market achievements require some engagement with those systems — even modest activity is usually enough for the early milestones.
- Time-based achievements simply require the game to remain your save profile's active session — no specific action needed beyond continuing to play over days and weeks.
