Gacha system
Umamusume's two parallel gachas in detail. Character and support card rates at 3%, Carat costs, the 200-point exchange ceiling on each track, and why support cards are the real budget.

Umamusume: Pretty Derby runs two parallel gachas, and competitive play needs both: the character gacha for trainable umamusume and the support card gacha for the cards that define every training run. Pulls cost 150 Carats (called Jewels in Japan) on either track. [1]
Rates, both tracks
| Parameter | Character gacha | Support card gacha |
|---|---|---|
| Top rarity | 3% (3-star character) | 3% (SSR card) |
| Featured rate-up | typically 0.75% | typically 0.75% |
| Cost per pull | 150 Carats | 150 Carats |
| Exchange ceiling | 200 points | 200 points |
There is no escalation and no hard pity below the ceiling; the featured share is a fractional rate-up with no loss protection. [1]
The 200-point exchange
Each pull grants one exchange point on its own track. At 200 points, the featured 3-star character or SSR card can be exchanged outright, a ceiling of 30,000 Carats per target. Points are per banner: they expire when the banner ends (expired limited-banner points convert to Clovers, a minor shop currency). [1] The design is Cygames' own spark convention at two-thirds the original 300-draw price; the lineage runs through Granblue Fantasy.
Why support cards are the real budget
The dual-track structure roughly doubles the spending surface, and the deeper sink is on the card side: support cards scale steeply with limit breaks, which consume duplicate copies, up to four per card. A single copy of a strong SSR card is a fraction of its potential; a fully limit-broken one can require five copies, or 1,000 pulls through the ceiling in the worst case. Characters, by contrast, are competitive at one copy. Budget accordingly, and see dupe system for how this pattern compares across games.
