How to Get Pet Coins in Hunty Zombies?
The only way to earn Pet Coins in Hunty Zombies is by playing and completing runs in Payload Mode. No other game mode, event, or activity rewards Pet Coins directly. This makes Payload Mode the absolute center of all your pet-related progression. If your goal is to upgrade, evolve, or strengthen your pets, this is the mode you must prioritize above everything else. Every successful run pushes you closer to unlocking stronger companions, making Payload Mode the core engine of your long-term growth in the game.
Exact ways to get pets – pet-related coins
- Buy Pet Packs in the Shop (main lobby) — the primary method.
- Common pack types: Lucky Pet Pack, Legend Pet Pack, Mythic Pack, and P’Fresh Pet Pack. Packs appear in the Shop in the lobby (look for neon green text near Weapon stalls). Cost examples reported by recent guides: Lucky Pack ≈ 20,000 coins (or ~199 Robux), Legend Pack ≈ 30,000 coins (or ~239 Robux) — prices can change with updates, but those are current guide numbers.
- Battle Pass / Premium rewards — some pets are unlocked through the premium battle pass tiers. If you buy/complete the pass you can unlock specific pets without opening packs.
- Raids & Events — newer updates added pet unlocks through raid rewards and special events (raids can drop pets). These are usually not affected by pack drop-rate boosts.
- Duplicate pet compensation (coin refunds when you already own a pet) — instead of a duplicate pet, the game grants coin compensation amounts depending on pack/rarity. Community docs list compensation values like 6,000 / 9,000 / 15,000 / 24,000 (varies by pack/rarity and update). Check your roll popup to see exact duplicate coin payouts.
- Codes & Promotions — dev-issued or seasonal codes sometimes grant large coin sums (some codes in Nov 2025 grant 100k–300k coins or even 200k). Redeeming codes is a fast way to get the in-game coins needed to buy Pet Packs. (You must usually be level 5+ to redeem codes in-game.)
How to redeem codes for fast coins
- Open Hunty Zombies on Roblox and reach the minimum required level (usually level 5).
- In the main screen, tap the CODES (book) button on the right.
- Paste a valid code and press CONFIRM to claim rewards (coins, spins, traits). Keep an eye on code lists from community sites for fresh codes.
Best methods to farm the in-game coins you need for Pet Packs
- High-difficulty map runs (Nightmare difficulty) — players report that running certain maps like School on Nightmare yields the highest coin/hour; community videos/guides show this as the fastest pure coin farm. Use a carry or strong weapons/perks to survive and speed-clear.
- Quests & Daily/New Player rewards — complete quests (survive rounds, kill X zombies) and collect daily/new-player bundles — these give large lump sums early on (new-player bonus can include 100k coins). Use these to buy initial pet packs.
- Events & Codes — periodically redeem codes (some give 100k–300k) or participate in limited events that award coins.
- Use coin-boost pets / passive bonuses — some pets increase coin gain per run. Equipping a coin-focused pet multiplies coins you pick up each match, so once you have 1–2 coin-boost pets you’ll accelerate future pack purchases. See pet descriptions / tier guides to pick coin-scaling pets.
- Play with experienced players / carries — high-level lobbies clear faster and net more coins per run. Grouping with skilled players multiplies your earning rate compared to solo beginner runs.
Duplicate pet compensation — exact numbers & what they mean
When you open a pack and get a pet you already own, the game converts that into coins (compensation). Community wiki lists show compensation tiers (examples): 6,000 / 9,000 / 15,000 / 24,000 depending on the pack and rarity you duplicated (numbers come from the pet wiki and have been tracked by players). That means opening packs still gives coin return even if you’re unlucky with duplicates.
Pro tips to maximize Pet Coins and minimize waste
- Wait for double-coin events or code drops before spending many coins on packs.
- Use duplicate compensation strategically: if you’re close to a pack price, opening a cheaper pack that risks duplicates may still net you the coin you need.
- Prioritize coin-boost pets early — even a simple pet that increases coin gain repays itself by enabling faster future pack purchases.
- Track active codes using 1–2 reliable sites instead of random clickbait.
Quick FAQ
Q: Is there a separate “Pet Coin” currency?
A: No — pets are obtained via Pet Packs bought with normal in-game coins (or Robux). Duplicate pets convert into coin compensation.
Q: Can I reliably farm coins fast without paying Robux?
A: Yes — Nightmare runs on high-coin maps, quests, and redeeming codes give big coin sums. Combining coin-boost pets and carries speeds this further.
Q: Where to find the best active codes?
A: PocketTactics, ProGameGuides, SuperCheats and the game’s social posts / Discord are the best places to check frequently.
