# Forge Stamps & UMU

Premium in-game currencies such as Forge Stamps and UMU Badges are required to unlock certain content. No piece of premium content is designed to create a substantive winning advantage, but may let you enjoy a different play style or save you some time on certain tasks. 

You can acquire premium currencies from the game shop or earn them through in game achievements after purchasing a Founder's Edition
