Players receive P2E tokens through activities like completing quests, winning battles, crafting items, or trading NFTs. Each game defines specific ways players can generate rewards. Most P2E games issue their own native tokens (e.g., AXS for Axie Infinity or SAND for The Sandbox) used for purchasing in-game items, upgrading characters or tools, and governance voting (in some decentralized ecosystems). Once earned, these tokens can usually be used to buy NFTs or other in-game assets, staked or farmed, and traded on crypto exchanges. Users can also obtain P2E tokens on various crypto platforms like CEX.IO, which offers multiple pathways to buy cryptocurrency, including P2E-based ones, as well as a free crypto wallet for seamless portfolio management.

Axie Infinity Shards (AXS), Sandbox (SAND), and Illuvium (ILV) are among the most popular ones. Besides receiving these tokens in-game, users can buy Sandbox (SAND) and other popular P2E cryptocurrencies on CEX.IO.
