Fate/Grand Order

How to get free Saint Quartz in Fate/Grand Order

A complete, curated guide to every real method for getting free Saint Quartz in Fate/Grand Order, with an estimate of how much you can earn per month.

Saint Quartz is Fate/Grand Order's (FGO) primary summoning currency: the premium currency used to perform Servant and Craft Essence Summons in the game's gacha. It's tracked separately from paid Saint Quartz, and the game always spends the free stock first. There are also Saint Quartz Fragments, a fractional version that combines automatically (7 fragments = 1 full Saint Quartz), handed out mainly through weekly Master Missions. This guide covers the real, verified methods for building up Saint Quartz without paying: from login rewards and weekly Master Missions, to completing Singularities, Lostbelts and Interludes, Rank Up Quests, raising Bond level with your Servants, events, and server maintenance compensation. You'll also find a realistic monthly estimate based on community data, so you know how much you can expect to accumulate by playing consistently without spending real money.

What's the fastest way to get Saint Quartz in Fate/Grand Order?

We've gathered and verified every real method for getting free Saint Quartz, ranked from most to least profitable based on the time they take and what you can actually earn from each. No tricks, no generators — just the game's own mechanics.

1
~2 Saint Quartz/week Weekly

Weekly Master Missions

Every week, 7 Master Missions go live and hand out Saint Quartz Fragments as rewards. Since you need 7 fragments to form a full Saint Quartz, completing all of the week's missions usually adds up to a couple of full Saint Quartz. It's the most reliable method because it repeats every week the game stays active, regardless of your story progress.

2
~4 Saint Quartz/week Weekly

Login rewards (weekly cycle)

FGO hands out Saint Quartz on a login cycle that repeats every week: typically 1 on the second consecutive day, 1 on the fourth and 2 on the sixth, adding up to about 4 Saint Quartz a week if you log in daily. On top of that, longer streak milestones (day 75, day 100 and every 50 days after) hand out 10-20 extra Saint Quartz as a one-off.

3
10 Saint Quartz per chapter + 1 per mission One-time

Completing Singularities, Pseudo-Singularities and Lostbelts

Progressing through the main story hands out 1 Saint Quartz per completed mission, plus a bonus of 10 Saint Quartz for finishing each full Singularity, Pseudo-Singularity or Lostbelt. It's a finite resource (once the available story is finished, it's gone), but for new players or those behind on the plot it's the biggest single source at once.

4
~2 Saint Quartz per mission Variable

Interludes and Rank Up Quests

Interludes (individual Servant stories) and Rank Up Quests typically hand out 2 Saint Quartz on completion. They unlock as you get new Servants and with each update that adds content, so how often you get them depends on your roster and how much new content the game releases.

5
~10-20 Saint Quartz/month Variable

Events

Most event rewards are event-specific currency, but almost every event includes a few event missions that grant Saint Quartz directly. Since FGO releases events quite frequently, this has become a recurring, if irregular, source, with amounts that vary depending on the length and type of event (collaborations and anniversaries tend to give more).

6
3-30 Saint Quartz per level Variable

Bond levels with your Servants

Raising Bond level with a 3-star or higher Servant hands out Saint Quartz starting at level 6, with amounts that grow as you climb: more modest figures at mid levels and up to 30 Saint Quartz per level cleared from level 10-11 onward. It requires a lot of AP farming and time, so how often you get it depends on each player's pace.

7
1 Saint Quartz per hour of maintenance Variable

Server maintenance compensation

When the server goes into scheduled maintenance, FGO usually compensates players with Saint Quartz equal to the number of hours the downtime lasted. It's not something you can plan for, but it happens occasionally throughout the year and requires no action from the player.

How much free Saint Quartz can you get per month?

SourceEstimated amountFrequency
Master Missions~8Weekly
Weekly login~16Weekly
Events~10-20Variable
Estimated total~34-44 Saint Quartz per month

This is a community estimate (not an official figure from Aniplex/Delightworks) based on a player who consistently completes Master Missions and weekly login and takes part in active events. It doesn't include Singularities, Interludes or Bond level-ups, which are one-off or account-progress-dependent sources, nor special anniversary campaigns that can spike the figure during that particular month.

Frequently asked questions

What's the difference between Saint Quartz and Saint Quartz Fragments?

A Saint Quartz Fragment is a fractional version of the currency: you need to build up 7 fragments for them to automatically combine into 1 full Saint Quartz. Weekly Master Missions are the main source of fragments.

Can you buy Saint Quartz with real money and mix it with the free stock?

Yes, but the game keeps them in separate pools and always spends free Saint Quartz first, before paid Saint Quartz, including the bonus Saint Quartz you get when buying packs.

Do generators or websites promising unlimited free Saint Quartz work?

No. They're scams that usually ask for personal data or try to compromise your account, and using them can lead to a permanent ban. The only safe way to get free Saint Quartz is through the game's own official rewards.
