How to get Scrap in PUBG (All Platforms)

PUBG: Battlegrounds has changed a lot since the days when it was still called PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds. Back then, you’d just open crates that would give you a random cosmetic item. Nowadays we still have crates, but the entire process has become infuriatingly more complicated. Let’s look into this surprisingly confusing thing called “Scrap”.

What is Scrap in PUBG

Scrap is a prime currency that you cannot find on the game’s beautiful maps, simply earn as a post match reward, or even by straight-up buying it in the game’s store with actual money.

Scrap is a specific byproduct you get when you open Contraband Crates. Now, contraband crates can be opened by using your contraband coupons or G-Coins — the game’s currency you need to spend real money to acquire — but the contraband crate will only give you scrap for sure when you open these crates via G-Coins. If you open these crates via the contraband coupons, you’ll only be getting scrap if the game’s RNG deems you worthy of it. Upon opening one of these crates the costly way, the game will bestow you with 10 scrap. You will then be able to use said scrap to unlock specific cosmetic items that we’ll be looking into next.

Because PUBG: Battlegrounds store/crafting/ system is just so obtuse, I think it’s important to also explain the concept of “scrapping” here. Be aware that you can “scrap” cosmetics you don’t care for, but, confusingly enough, the action of “scrapping” your weapons will not grant you additional scrap.

What is the Scrap Broker in PUBG

The scrap broker is a special in-game store where you can use scrap to buy things. Through the scrap broker, you can trade in a high number of scrap for contraband coupons for the crates or already completed cosmetic skins. Another thing scrap will get you are Schematics and Polymers, which are crafting materials that allow you to craft weapons wit💙h special 𝔍cosmetic skins.

Scrap will stay in your inventory until the day the developers decide to reva๊mp the weird sy♏stem, so you can accumulate as much of it as you want to get the more expensive stuff.

PUBG Scrap glitch

Though you’re supposed to receive 10 scrap whenever you open a Contraband crate via G-coin spending, the Internet is filled with who open them and end up receiving no scrap. Should this happen to you, get in touch with the game’s help channels to claim your hard-earned scrap points.
