Money Toast
Every World of Warcraft player knows the feeling: you sell a stack of materials, loot a rare mob, or pay a hefty repair bill, and you want to know exactly how much your wallet just moved. Money Toast solves that problem with a single, elegant purpose. This lightweight addon displays changes in the amount of money of your currently active character, showing the difference the moment it happens and animating the change so you always see your updated total gold. After the animation finishes, the notification fades away automatically, keeping your interface clean.
What Money Toast Actually Does
Money Toast is a general-purpose gold tracker, which means it works for every class, every profession, and every playstyle. The moment your character's copper, silver, or gold total changes, the addon pops up a notification with the exact difference. Instead of guessing whether that vendor trash run was worth it, you get instant, readable feedback.
The animation is the standout feature. Rather than simply printing a static number, Money Toast counts up or down toward your new total, giving you a satisfying visual confirmation of the transaction. Once the animation completes, the notification disappears on its own, so you never have to click anything away or manage clutter during raids, dungeons, or auction house sessions.

Version Compatibility: Retail, Classic, and Beyond
One of the best things about Money Toast is how broadly it fits into the modern World of Warcraft ecosystem. Whether you spend your evenings in current content or you are leveling through older expansions, the addon is designed to keep working. Players regularly use Money Toast for World of Warcraft across multiple client branches, including Retail, Classic, The Burning Crusade (TBC), Wrath of the Lich King (WotLK), Cataclysm, and Mists of Pandaria (MoP).
That compatibility matters because gold behaves differently in each version. In Classic-era realms, every silver counts toward your first mount. In WotLK and Cataclysm, gold flows through professions, dailies, and the auction house at a different pace. In MoP and Retail, the numbers get much larger, which makes a clean animated counter even more valuable. Money Toast adapts to all of these without requiring separate configurations.
Why Gold Awareness Matters in Every Expansion
Tracking your income is not just about curiosity. Knowing exactly how much you earn per hour helps you decide whether farming herbs, running dungeons, or flipping auctions is the best use of your time. Money Toast gives you that data passively, without spreadsheets or manual note-taking. If you are saving for an expensive mount, a crafted legendary, or a token, that constant feedback keeps you motivated and informed.
How to Install Money Toast
Getting started takes only a couple of minutes. If you are wondering how to install Money Toast, the process follows the standard addon routine for World of Warcraft.
- Obtain the addon files from your preferred addon source and extract the archive.
- Locate your World of Warcraft installation folder and open the Interface directory.
- Place the extracted Money Toast folder inside the AddOns subfolder.
- Restart the game client or type /reload if you are already logged in.
- Confirm the addon appears in the AddOns list on the character selection screen and enable it.
Once enabled, no setup is required. The addon begins tracking immediately, and you will see your first animated notification the next time your gold total changes.
If you prefer a faster route, the foxygame.net launcher streamlines the whole process with one-click installation, so you can add Money Toast to your setup without manually digging through folders. The launcher also maintains a broad addon catalog and handles auto-updates, which means your version of Money Toast stays current even when a new game patch drops. For players who jump between Retail and Classic-era clients, that automatic version handling removes a lot of the usual maintenance headaches.
