The monetization model of the game is a mixed bag, with some players appreciating the lack of aggressive ads and the optional microtransactions that enhance progression without feeling necessary. However, others criticize the presence of pay-to-win elements and the perception that significant progress is gated behind in-game purchases, leading to a sense of imbalance between free and paying players.

- “The in-game purchases are nice to have, but not required, and the currency for them is rewarded throughout the game so you don't have to pay money for them if you don't want to.”
- “Overall, I’d rather pay 5 bucks for the Steam edition of Cookie Clicker with a wide variety of features, no microtransactions, better music, and balanced progression throughout most of the game instead of this grindfest waiting to happen.”
- “Within the first few moments of the game, its benefits are quickly overshadowed by the flaws its pay-to-win monetization model brings.”
- “Ultimately, any accomplishments a free-to-play player makes are completely overshadowed by the fact that a paying player could do it in a mere fraction of the time, and the pay-to-win monetization structure makes it much more likely that an artificial progression barrier exists at some point(s) in the game, encouraging players to buy the DLCs to bypass them.”
