# Add new currency

{% hint style="info" %}
This works only like item as money. That means to add or remove the money you have to edit scripts that use that.

**Example**

*From* 

<pre><code><strong>Player.Functions.RemoveMoney('cash', amount, "Bank deposit")
</strong></code></pre>

*To*

```
Player.Functions.RemoveMoney('blackmoney', amount, "Bank deposit")
```

{% endhint %}

* If you have successfully installed the script, then you can add new currency by these steps

{% hint style="danger" %}
More currencies = bigger impact on performance
{% endhint %}

* First of all, we need to config your config.lua in SA-Money-v2

{% code title="config.lua" %}

```lua
Money = { 
    Currencies = {
        [1] = {
            currency = 'cash',
            item = 'money',
            prop = 'prop_cash_pile_02',
        },
        [2] = {
            currency = 'blackmoney',
            item = 'black',
            prop = 'prop_cash_pile_02',
            --chance = 1.0, -- 0.7 = 70% chance to success / 30% to call a cops (DOESN'T WORK FOR NOW)
        },
        --[[[3] = {
            currency = 'printedbills',
            item = 'printedbills',
            prop = 'prop_cash_pile_02',
            --chance = 1.0, -- 0.7 = 70% chance to success / 30% to call a cops (DOESN'T WORK FOR NOW)
        }, ]]
    }
}
```

{% endcode %}

* Now, we have to create an item in qb-core > shared > items.lua same way as you added cash

{% code title="items.lua" lineNumbers="true" %}

```lua
	['black'] 						 = {['name'] = 'black', 					  	  	['label'] = 'Black Money', 			['weight'] = 0, 		['type'] = 'item', 		['image'] = 'cash.png', 			['unique'] = false, 		['useable'] = false, 	['shouldClose'] = true,	   ['combinable'] = nil,   ['description'] = 'Money?'},
```

{% endcode %}

* The next step is to add new currency into the config.lua in QB-Core

{% code title="config.lua" %}

```lua

QBConfig.Money = {}
QBConfig.Money.MoneyTypes = { cash = 500, bank = 5000, crypto = 0, blackmoney = 0, printedbills = 0 } -- type = startamount - Add or remove money types for your server (for ex. blackmoney = 0), remember once added it will not be removed from the database!
QBConfig.Money.DontAllowMinus = { 'cash', 'crypto', 'blackmoney', 'printedbills' } -- Money that is not allowed going in minus
```

{% endcode %}

Now it's done and it should work. If it doesn't work try other tips or contact us on Discord
