Economy plugins?
Hey guys, I'm looking for an economy plugin for my PaperMC 1.21.1 server. Yes I could google it but I want some feedback from people as well, what economy plugins do you guys recommend? And also maybe I should ask what I should be looking for in a economy plugin

EssentialsX. That with ShopGUI+ is what I like.
(Vault is compulsory here, and it is the case for most economy plugins)
We used to use shopgui+ and then switched to economyshopgui+ for the dynamic pricing
^ Another alternative is Shopkeepers which is pretty nice
I use CMI on my server, it's similar to EssentialsX but on steroids. https://www.spigotmc.org/resources/cmi-300-commands-insane-kits-portals-essentials-economy-mysql-sqlite-much-more.3742/
The New Economy/TNE is amazing. By far the best most flexible currency out there.
- support for both old vault and VaultUnlocked.
- Allows cross server currency with real-time updating by using either a redis database or bungee/velocity messaging
- great support in discord and quickly updates plugin(I've been testing on 1.21.4 for a week).
- supports both digital and physical currencies
- allows for multiple currencies
- integrates smoothly with many plugins thst vault use to need custom patching for (such as towny)

Looked into this one and I like what it has to offer. Do you need to link it to a database or can I go without it if I'm only using it on one server?
Just looked at my server config. Looks like these are the DB options. Sadly no SQLite but there is a yaml option which sounds like it's what you want.
Just remember if you plan to have a lot of players, a database will almost always be faster than a flat file and have less chance of data corruption.
Ah ok. This is probably the best plugin I've found so far, I'm going to give it a shot on my dev server I think. Thanks for your help!
It is. Getting your first currency going to be a bit complicated so don't be afraid to ask in CreatorFromHells discord.
The other plugin i tried prior to moving to it (that wasn't essentials) was ecobit. There is a paywall but you can copy their main branch and build it yourself. Wasn't horrible if i remember but didn't have live syncing cross servers.

If you by chance start looking for playershops. Let me know. I'm currently provably hopping ship with my current one and trying to find a new one.
Playershops actually might be something I'll be looking to add in a month or two actually, I'll keep a lookout.
I appreciate it man! Thanks
