Monopoly GO: Which Resources Get Wiped When a Season Changes?
Each sticker season in Monopoly GO lasts roughly two to three months. When a season ends, the system performs a large-scale reset of your sticker album, star balance, and certain event progress. Having a clear grasp of how each resource is settled allows you to strategically clear out event tokens, plan your star usage, and time your vault openings during the final stretch of a season, maximizing the conversion of old-season accumulation into new-season starting resources. On the flip side, a partial understanding of the rules means you only discover key resources have been wiped on switch day, with virtually zero window for recovery.

Which Resources Get Completely Wiped?
A season change does not reset everything, but anything tied to stickers is indeed pulled out by the roots with nothing spared.
- Sticker Album and All Stickers: Once the new album goes live, the old album disappears entirely. All stickers are cleared, and collection begins from scratch.
- Stars Exceeding the Conversion Cap: At season end, the system tallies your total star count and auto-converts them into dice. The cap is roughly 700 stars converting to 750 dice. Anything beyond the cap is permanently voided.
- Extra Rewards from Unopened Vaults: If you do not manually open a vault before the season ends, the system only settles the star count itself. The sticker packs and dice rewards bundled inside the vault are not separately honored.
The sticker album, the star cap, and vault bonus rewards form the highest-risk resource triangle during a season switch. Each must be checked and handled before the season closes.
Which Resources Get Auto-Converted?
Some resources do not vanish outright but are converted by the system at a fixed ratio. The conversion return is generally lower than what you would get by using them proactively.
- Sticker Stars Convert to Dice: Leftover stars are automatically turned into dice, capped at roughly 700 stars for 750 dice. Any excess is not refunded.
- Dig Event Pickaxes Convert to Dice: Leftover pickaxes convert to dice at a three-to-one ratio, meaning three dice per remaining pickaxe. The reward value is lower than finishing the dig outright.
- Partner Event Tokens Convert to Cash: Leftover tokens from partner-style events are converted to cash at a set ratio after the event ends. The conversion efficiency is far below spending them on rewards during the event.
Auto-conversion is the system's fallback mechanism. The converted return is consistently lower than proactive use. Stars and tokens should be spent before the season and event deadlines whenever possible.

What Should You Do Before and After a Season Switch?
There is a standard set of steps for season-end and season-start. Executing them in order keeps resource loss to a minimum.
- Clear Event Tokens Before the Season Ends: Limited-time event tokens convert at a fixed ratio after the switch. Spending them beforehand on sticker packs and dice yields a higher return.
- Open a Vault If Your Stars Exceed 700: Spend the excess stars on opening a vault for immediate rewards, while keeping roughly 700 to fully hit the conversion cap.
- Unload Dice After the New Season Begins: The new album's opening days are dense with events. Release your hoarded dice in a concentrated burst for maximum starting efficiency.
Clear tokens and manage star count at season-end. Unleash dice and chase the album at season-start. This back-to-back rhythm is a fixed resource management loop for every season.
What to Do Before and After a Season Switch?
The season change's impact is concentrated on the sticker system. Board progress and the core currency framework are largely untouched. Your dice balance carries over intact, making it the most stable cross-season asset and the core resource that veteran players hoard heavily at season-end. Cash balance and Net Worth level are similarly unaffected. Landmark upgrade progress and board advancement continue unchanged into the new season. Friend relationships and the gift system are not reset by a season change, and your daily login reward streak remains unbroken. The one caveat: Community Chest weekly progress and partner assignments do reset when a new album launches, and unclaimed chest sticker packs likewise cannot be carried into the new season.
Monopoly GO's season switch follows a clear dividing line: the sticker system and event progress reset or convert, while board progress and core currency remain fully intact. Once this rule is internalized, you will know exactly which resources to prioritize at season-end and which can wait for the new season. Rather than regretting evaporated excess stars or unopened vaults after the switch, spend a few minutes in the final days checking everything off one by one: clear the event tokens, open a vault if your stars exceed the cap, and leave the rest to the system's auto-conversion.
