“You can get things like drivers and karts from the pipe. Say, why don't you use some rubies to fire something out of it?”

—Lakitu , Mario Kart Tour

Rubies are the premium currency in Mario Kart Tour . Prior to the 2022 Battle Tour, they were mainly used to summon new drivers, karts, and gliders from the pipe. Five were required to fire it one time, although 45 could be spent to fire ten at once. As of the Battle Tour, rubies are instead primarily used to redeem High-End drivers, karts, and gliders, with drivers in the Daily Spotlight costing 150 rubies each, and karts and gliders in the Daily Spotlight costing 100 rubies each. In addition, each tour has a dedicated Spotlight Shop, with specific drivers, karts, and gliders available depending on the tour; here, drivers cost 105 rubies for the first purchase, while karts and gliders cost 70 rubies for their first purchase. Also, since their introduction in the 2022 Mii Tour, rubies can be spent to redeem Mii Racing Suits, costing either 70 or 100 rubies each. If the player does not have any or enough Coin Rush tickets, rubies can be spent to play Coin Rush, with 5 rubies multiplying the coin count by 2, 15 by 6, and 25 by 10. In addition to being purchasable with real money, rubies are obtainable in-game through Tour Gifts, by completing the game's Standard Challenges, as an occasional daily reward, from Event Shops, and as a reward for reaching certain levels and achieving high ranks in a ranked cup (the amounts for the latter varying depending on the player's current place and tier). In the pre-release beta test, rubies were emeralds and could not be purchased. The front part of a ruby resembles an Item Box.
