The shop (previously called lingot store) is where you can buy tons of fun and helpful items to enhance your learning experience using lingots or gems. Users can purchase certain items that can add new skills to the language tree, or items that can help a user complete a lesson.[1] Users earn lingots or gems by leveling up and finishing a skill, and one lingot for every ten days on a streak.
