As the hunt for new stickers begins, players often debate the value of Wild Stickers versus Swap Packs. Which one helps you progress faster when your album is fresh? This guide will help you make that choice, especially if you're also focused on preparing for the upcoming Monopoly Go Partners Event.

What Is a Wild Sticker?

A Wild Sticker in Monopoly GO allows you to instantly select any missing sticker from your collection—including elusive 5-star gold stickers. It’s a powerful tool, especially useful when you’re down to the final sticker in a set. Wild Stickers eliminate the randomness and give you full control over one specific sticker choice.

This can be game-changing in events where completing albums leads to bigger rewards. For example, during the Monopoly Go Partners Event, finishing sticker sets could help unlock milestone rewards. Using a Wild Sticker smartly can contribute significantly to your progress.

What Makes Swap Packs Unique?

Unlike traditional sticker packs, Swap Packs contain higher-star value stickers (usually 3 to 5 stars) and give you the chance to swap out unwanted ones. You get multiple stickers at once and can redraw up to three times, improving your chances of getting what you need early in an album.

At the start of a sticker album, when nearly every sticker is missing, this flexibility makes Swap Packs especially valuable. You could potentially fill several album slots in one go, which helps you prepare for the cooperative mechanics in a Monopoly GO Partners game mode or event.

Which One Is Better at the Start?

In most cases, Swap Packs are more useful when starting a new album. Their multiple sticker pulls and swap capability increase your chances of quickly filling your collection. However, a Wild Sticker is still a prized item—especially if you use it to grab a rare gold sticker early on.

And if you’re teaming up with others using a Monopoly Go carry service, having a filled-out album can enhance your overall event success. These services are especially helpful during limited-time events like the Monopoly GO Partners Event Boosting Service, which accelerates your path to top-tier rewards.
