Summertime Saga Money Guide: Best Jobs, Bank Interest and Fast Cash
Almost every route needs cash, so Summertime Saga money is the first wall new players hit. Items cost anything from a few dollars to thousands for a vehicle or the beach house, and Jenny’s route is one of the most expensive. This guide ranks every job, explains how to unlock the best one and shows how the bank turns savings into passive income.
Quick answer: Pizza delivery is the best job: up to $1,200 a run with the sports car and a perfect delivery.
Every Summertime Saga Job Ranked
| Job | Max pay | Uses a time slot | How to unlock |
|---|---|---|---|
| Pizza delivery | $1,200 | Yes | Tony’s Pizza unlocked (flyer or Diane’s route) and the delivery bike from Consum-R |
| Shooting minigame | $400 (can double) | No | Halfway through Roxxy’s route, once the trailer park and Clyde are unlocked |
| Milking | $200 | Yes | Far enough into Diane’s or Daisy’s route |
| Jenny’s camshow | $200 | Yes | Last steps of Jenny’s route |
| Gardening | $120 | Yes | Second step of Diane’s route |
| Fishing | $80 | Yes | Take the fishing rod from the home attic, then go to the pier |
Most jobs advance the time of day, so you can only fit a few into each day. The shooting minigame pays $400 but can be doubled when Clyde offers double or nothing.
How to Unlock Pizza Delivery
- Find Tony’s Pizza: it unlocks from the flyer in the mailboxes or at the start of Diane’s route.
- Buy the delivery road bike at Consum-R.
- Do runs between story events; the pay depends on your speed and accuracy.
- Later, use the sports car as your vehicle for the top $1,200 payout.
Using the Bank
Saga Financial’s ATM lets you deposit and withdraw money. Every Monday you earn 3% interest on your savings and get a statement in your mailbox. Parking spare money in the bank early adds up over a long playthrough.
Money Achievements
- Ready for college: have $25,000 in your savings account.
- Sound investment: earn over $50,000 in interest.
- Home Sweet Home: buy the beach house.
- The GT500: buy the sports car.
When to Use Cheat Mode Instead
If you just want the story, start a new game with cheat mode for $999,999. Our Summertime Saga cheats page explains exactly what it changes.
What You Will Spend Money On
- Computer parts from Consum-R ($200) to train Intelligence.
- The delivery road bike for pizza runs.
- Items for nearly every route, from cheap plush toys to expensive gifts.
- Vehicles at the Saga Dealership and the beach house, the two biggest purchases.
- Jenny’s route, which uses money as the main way to win her over.
A Simple Daily Money Routine
- Use your first free slot each day for a pizza run.
- Fit gardening or milking around Diane’s route events.
- Fish at the pier when you have a spare slot late in the day.
- Deposit anything you do not need right away so the Monday interest grows.
Following this routine, Summertime Saga money builds fast enough that most players can afford everything a route needs by the time they reach it.
How Pizza Delivery Pay Works
Pizza delivery unlocks when Tony’s Pizza opens in the main story and you buy the road bike at Consum-R for $200. During a run, houses along the route show which pizza they ordered; when the main character’s head lines up with the door, click the pizza with the matching toppings. Pay per successful pizza depends on the vehicle: $50 on the bike, $100 on the scooter, $150 on the small car and $200 on the sports car. Faster vehicles scroll the screen faster, so the higher pay is also harder. Deliveries are part of the main story and cannot be skipped entirely.
Vehicle and House Prices
| Purchase | Price | Where |
|---|---|---|
| Road bike | $200 | Consum-R |
| Scooter | $1,100 | Saga Dealership |
| Small car | $4,500 | Saga Dealership |
| Sports car | $10,000 | Saga Dealership |
| Beach house | $5,000 | Beachhouse, lower-left of the map |
Each vehicle upgrade raises your pizza income, so buying the scooter and small car early pays for itself. Save for the sports car once the main story stops demanding cash. Keep checking the fandom page for updated patch notes.

Money Mistakes to Avoid
- Spending early cash on gifts before buying the delivery bike; the bike pays for itself within a few runs.
- Leaving savings in your wallet instead of the bank, where they earn 3% every Monday.
- Upgrading straight to the sports car before you can deliver accurately at higher scroll speeds.
- Forgetting that most jobs use up a time slot, which can delay story events that happen at a fixed time.
How Long Until You Can Afford Everything?
Playing normally, most players can afford route items comfortably once pizza delivery and Diane’s jobs are unlocked. The big-ticket goals take longer: the beach house ($5,000) and the sports car ($10,000) usually come in the middle of a playthrough, especially if you upgrade your delivery vehicle along the way.
Let savings sit in the bank so the Monday interest helps, and you will reach the $25,000 Ready for college achievement without extra grinding.
Final Thoughts
Summertime Saga money comes down to unlocking pizza delivery early and banking the surplus. Do that and Summertime Saga money stops being a problem by the middle of the game.
