Alchemy Factory Bank Portal Guide
Managing money and raw materials becomes easier once portals unlock. The Bank Portal and material portals handle both jobs cleanly, if you know how they work.
Alchemy Factory Bank Portal Guide
Currencies in Alchemy Factory can be exchanged instantly using the Bank Portal. There are no fees or losses.
You can swap copper coins, silver coins, and gold coins freely. The exchange rate is fixed and never changes.
1 gold coin equals 100 silver coins.
1 silver coin equals 1000 copper coins.
1 gold coin equals 100000 copper coins.
This works in both directions. You can break gold down or combine copper up at any time.
How to Build a Bank Portal
The Bank Portal uses the same basic build process as other portals.
After unlocking portal technology, buy a Portal Sigil from the shop. Use 1 Portal Sigil and some wood to place the Bank Portal.
Once built, connect a coin Conveyor Belt to the portal input. No output belt is needed for currency exchange.
Open the portal interface to convert currencies instantly.
Using Portals to Buy Raw Materials
Material portals let you convert coins directly into raw resources.
After unlocking portal technology, purchase Portal Sigils. Build a standard Portal using 1 Portal Sigil and wood.
Connect belts correctly for it to function.

Raw Materials Conveyor Belt comes out of the portal output
Open the portal interface and select the material you want to buy.
When enough coins enter the portal, materials are produced automatically.
Currency Handling in Portals
Portals accept any currency type.
You can feed copper, silver, or gold into the same portal. The portal converts value internally and outputs materials once the price is met.
No manual exchange is required beforehand. The Bank Portal is optional, not mandatory.
Best Use Cases for the Bank Portal
The Bank Portal shines when managing belt throughput.
Gold coins reduce belt congestion compared to copper. Breaking gold into silver or copper helps with precise costs.
Many players keep one Bank Portal near their main economy hub to rebalance currency flows quickly.
Final Blurb
The Bank Portal lets you exchange all currencies for free at fixed rates, while material portals turn coins straight into raw resources. Build them once, belt them correctly, and your economy starts running itself.
