Why it's worth finding a better price
Diamonds are the lifeblood of Mobile Legends: heroes, skins, the Weekly Pass, lucky boxes — they all cost diamonds. A regular player easily spends $10–30 per month. Being able to buy 20–30% cheaper adds up to meaningful savings over a year of playing.
Method 1: In-game official store
The easiest option — but not the cheapest. The official in-game store charges the baseline regional rate for your country with no additional discounts.
Pros: Simple, instant, fully official. Cons: No discount, and players in certain regions face payment method limitations.
Method 2: In-game top-up events
Moonton runs regular bonus diamond events: "top up X amount and receive Y bonus diamonds free." This is the best value if you're planning a large purchase.
How to catch them: Check the Events section inside MLBB regularly, and follow the official MLBB social media channels. These events typically coincide with major patch launches, anniversaries, and holidays.
Pros: 20–50% effective discount during the event window. Cons: You have to time your purchase; payment method issues still apply for some regions.
Method 3: Codashop
Codashop is an authorized Moonton reseller with pricing close to — and occasionally slightly below — the official store. It's reliable and well-established.
Pros: Trusted and widely used. Cons: Payment failures for players in Russia and CIS (see our dedicated Codashop article for fixes and alternatives).
Method 4: Regional vouchers through Marix
This is the most cost-effective option for many international players. Marix offers top-up vouchers sourced from regional markets with more favorable pricing, and payment methods are adapted for markets where mainstream platforms struggle.
Pros: Competitive pricing, supported local payment methods, buyer protection. Cons: You must enter the correct UID — same care required as with any third-party top-up.
Method 5: Subscriptions and passes
The Weekly Diamond Pass and similar subscription products in MLBB deliver diamonds daily over a week or month. When you calculate the per-diamond cost, subscriptions often beat one-time purchases — especially if you're logging in every day.

Tips to maximize savings
Plan big purchases around events. If you want an expensive skin, wait for a bonus diamond event to stretch your budget further.
Buy in larger bundles, not small ones. A single 1,000 diamond purchase is always more efficient than ten 100-diamond purchases spread over time.
Watch marketplace pricing. Platforms like Marix update their offers regularly — compare current prices before committing to a specific amount.
Avoid impulse buys on luck-based boxes. Lucky spins and mystery boxes have the worst expected value in the game. Budget diamonds for direct purchases when possible.
FAQ
Is buying through Marix safe? Yes. Marix is a legitimate marketplace operating through verified sellers. Top-ups use your UID only — no password required, no account access granted.
Is there a maximum diamond balance? MLBB itself has no diamond balance cap. Individual sellers may have per-transaction limits — check the listing before purchasing large amounts.
When are the best top-up events? Look for bonus events before major patch releases, during MLBB's anniversary month, and around major holidays. Moonton typically announces these 1–2 weeks in advance.
Stop paying full price for diamonds. Buy MLBB Diamonds on Marix — competitive pricing, fast delivery, and support when you need it.
