The 1,500+ Gem Blueprint: How to Maximize Your Monthly Gem Income in 2026

If you’re a Clash of Clans player, you know the struggle: you need gems for the Builder's Apprentice, Epic Equipment, or maybe just to finish that Town Hall upgrade before a big War. While buying them is always an option, the most savvy players have figured out a routine that brings in 1,500+ gems every single month for free.

Here is the ultimate breakdown of how to turn your village into a gem-producing machine in 2026.

Method 1: The Supercell Web Store "Bonus Track"

This is the new gold standard for free gems. To avoid app store fees, Supercell rewards players who visit their official web store.

• The Action: Log into the Supercell Store once a week.
• The Reward: Complete simple "missions" like daily logins or claiming free items to move along the Bonus Track. This typically yields 100–110 free gems per month, along with magic items you can sell for more.

Method 2: The Raid Medal Conversion (The Heavy Lifter)

If you aren't using your Raid Medals for gems, you're missing out on the biggest monthly payout in the game.

• The Action: Participate in every Raid Weekend.
• The Strategy: Go to the Trader and buy Clock Tower Potions and Training Potions. They cost 100 medals each and sell for 10 gems.
• The Pro Tip: Don't stop at potions. If you have excess medals, buy Wall Rings. While they cost more, they are a consistent way to dump medals for gems once the potion shop is cleared. This method alone can net you 600+ gems monthly.

Method 3: The Passive Engines (Obstacles & Mine)

It sounds basic, but "cleaning your room" is a legitimate business strategy in Clash.

Obstacles

Trees and bushes spawn every 8 hours across both bases. Clearing them gives an average of 2 gems each. Combined with the weekly Gem Box (25 gems), you’re looking at ~280 gems from the Home Village and ~180 gems from the Builder Base.

The Gem Mine

A maxed-out Gem Mine (Level 11) produces about 5 gems a day. Boost it with the Clock Tower daily, and you’ll pull in roughly 170+ gems a month without lifting a finger.

Method 4: The "Sell-Off" Strategy (Events & Challenges)

Every month, Supercell drops seasonal events (like the Streak Event or specialized Troop Challenges). These are secret gem mines.

• The Action: Complete every event that offers a Magic Item reward.
• The Strategy: Unless you desperately need that Research Potion or Shovel of Obstacles, sell it.

Sell Values:

• Shovel of Obstacles: 50 Gems.
• Potions: 10 Gems.
• Books: 50 Gems.

Between the Season Pass (Free Track) and 5-6 monthly events, you can easily harvest 200–300 gems just by being active.

Method 5: The Clan Games "Gem Choice"

When Clan Games rolls around, don't just pick the biggest resource pile.

• The Action: Look for the raw gem rewards (usually 20, 40, or 100 gems in higher tiers).
• The Extra Bonus: If you max out your points (4,000), you get an extra reward. Always pick the most expensive Magic Item (like a Book or Rune) and sell it for a quick 50–100 gem injection.
