Here’s everything we know so far about Credits in Destiny 2: Renegades, how to get them, and what you can spend them on.

What are Credits in Destiny 2?

Credits are a new currency added in Destiny 2: Renegades that are the main currency of Tharsis Junction, the new location that’s inspired by Mos Eisley in Star Wars. Since this is basically the wild west in space, your Glimmer is no good here. You need Credits, similar to the Galactic Standard Credit from the Lucasfilm movies.

How to get Credits in Destiny 2: Renegades

Credits are rewarded via the Lawless Frontier activity. At the end of each mission, you are rewarded Credits depending on what kind of caches you were able to procure throughout the mission by successfully completing it.

You can get 1,000 Credits or more per completion of Lawless Frontier missions, several of which are a part of the main campaign in Renegades.

What to buy with Credits in Destiny 2: Renegades

Credits can be used to purchase everything from Renegade Ability upgrades to armor sets to weapons, all found within Tharsis Junction. The Tharsis Bazaar area, for example, has these armor stands that open up and allow you to purchase individual armor pieces.

In previous Destiny 2 seasons and expansions, buying equipment was relegated to one vendor or main area. In Renegades, they can be found all around Tharsis Junction, such as weapons which can be purchased by the Tharsis Reformation Syndicate, which are a Vex Syndicate found inside of the main cantina area.
