'''Dollar''' (often abbreviated as '''$'''; Japanese: {{tt|'''ドル'''|Doru}} ''Dollar'') is the standard currency used in {{vg|Mother}} and [[EarthBound]], which likely is due to the fact that the overworlds, where the games mainly take place in, are based on [[America]]. In both games, money is mainly obtained by defeating [[Enemy|enemies]], where the amount of money that is gained usually depends on the [[Status|stat]] values of the enemy. The money isn't obtained directly after the defeat of an enemy, as the protagonist's father will transfer the money that has been indirectly achieved to one's bank account. Money can then be withdrawn from or deposited to [[ATM]]s by the use of a [[List of key items in Mother#Ninten's Cash Card|Cash Card]] in Mother, and an [[List of key items in Mother#ATM card|ATM card]] in EarthBound. In EarthBound, [[the player]] can carry a maximum of $99,999.

Money is a substanital element in both games, as it's exchanged with goods and services from stores, [[hospital]]s and [[hotel]]s throughout the games, in order to restore one's [[Status#HP|HP]] and [[Status#PP|PP]], and to obtain new items or upgrade older ones; which primarily are used to increase or heal certain stats during one's journey, and to assist one during battles by inflicting additional damage to enemies, or to have them exposed to [[status ailment]]s.
