Shinobi Striker Exchange Tickets: How to Get and Use

Exchange tickets in Naruto to Boruto: Shinobi Striker, officially Tenten Exchange Tickets, come from appraising duplicate items of A rank or higher and from campaign login rewards. You spend them at Tenten's Exchange Shop, a section of the Ninja Tools Shop that rotates older high-rarity items the shop used to sell.

We checked this against Bandai Namco's patch 2.46 announcement, the fifth, sixth and seventh anniversary campaign pages, the April 2026 roadmap on the official Naruto site, and the Shinobi Striker community wiki's shop and scroll pages in November 2026.

What Tenten's Exchange Shop Is

The Exchange Shop arrived with version 2.46 in 2023, the same update that added Kaguya Otsutsuki and Season Pass 6. Bandai Namco described it as an addition to the Ninja Tools Shop where players spend Tenten Exchange Tickets to get older items that the Ninja Tools Shop used to sell, with the available items rotating after a set period. In practice it is a second chance at gear you missed when it was in the scroll lineup.

Before the Exchange Shop existed, a duplicate item from a scroll appraisal was only worth Ryo when you sold it back to Tenten. The shop changed that. Duplicates of A rank and above now return tickets instead, which gives high-rarity pulls a second use even when you already own the item. Lower-rank duplicates still convert to Ryo, which is why the loading screen tip "If you have multiples of an item, you can sell the extras to the shop" still applies to most of your inventory.

How Many Tickets Each Duplicate Gives

According to the community wiki's Exchange Shop page, the ticket return depends on the rank of the duplicate:

• A rank duplicate: 3 tickets
• S rank duplicate: 10 tickets
• SS rank duplicate: 150 tickets

The jump at SS rank is the important number. One SS duplicate is worth fifty A rank duplicates, so most of your ticket income from normal play will come from the rare SS pulls rather than from grinding low-tier scrolls. That also explains why players who appraise many Esoteric Scrolls build ticket balances far faster than players who mostly open Plain or Quality Scrolls.

Scroll Types and Where Duplicates Come From

Since tickets come from duplicate appraisals, the scroll you open decides your odds. The community wiki lists six scroll types as of version 2.11:

• Plain Scroll: Low-ranking items or small sums of Ryo, with no chance of S or SS rank items. You can hold at most 500.
• Quality Scroll: Mid-ranking items or moderate Ryo, with no chance of SS rank.
• Valuable Scroll: High-ranking items with a small chance of SS rank.
• Esoteric Scroll: The highest-ranking items with a high chance of SS rank.
• Moonlight Scroll: Highest-ranking items, sold through the PlayStation Store, Steam and Microsoft Store.
• Kakashi Scroll: Items earned from VR Missions, often unique to that mode.

Plain and Quality Scrolls cannot produce SS items, so they will never give you the 150-ticket duplicates. A and S duplicates from Valuable Scrolls add up slowly, while Esoteric Scrolls are where the big returns live. The weapon pages on the wiki list SS+ items such as Claw Edge "Kurama" and Sealed Blade "Totsuka Blade" as coming from Esoteric and Moonlight Scrolls, which is another reason serious collectors save their Esoteric Scrolls for featured lineups. Patch 2.46 also added Single Type Scroll Appraisal, which lets you appraise scrolls for one item type at a time from a rotating pool, so you can aim at weapons or costumes instead of everything at once.

Free Tickets From Anniversary Campaigns

The other reliable source is the late-summer anniversary campaign, which has handed out tickets directly in several years:

• Fifth anniversary (2023): 600 tickets after the August 24, 2023 maintenance and another 600 after the September 7, 2023 maintenance, for players who logged into the online lobby by each deadline. That launch gift came with the brand-new Exchange Shop.
• Sixth anniversary (2024): Day 4 of the Part 2 login bonus gave 200 Tenten Exchange Tickets in place of the Ryo given on Day 4 of Part 1.
• Seventh anniversary (2025): The second-half login bonus, which ran from September 4 to September 18, included 100 Tenten Exchange Tickets alongside 25 Esoteric and 25 Valuable Scrolls.

The 2026 eighth anniversary login bonus described by Bandai Namco focused on scrolls, listing 50 Esoteric and 50 Valuable Scrolls, and the campaign ended on September 24. Because these rewards depend on logging in during a fixed window, the simplest way to collect them is to open the game at least once during each part of every anniversary campaign. Campaign details are announced in the developer letters on the official Naruto site and on the game's official X account.

What to Spend Tickets On

The Exchange Shop rotates, and its lineup changes faster than any public list can keep up with, so check the shop in game before you plan. A few principles hold no matter what is listed:

1. Prioritize items you will actually equip. A weapon that fits your main class beats a rare cosmetic you will never wear. Our guide to the best Shinobi Striker weapons explains which weapon types each class can use and what makes the strongest ones stand out.
2. Look at the skills, not only the looks. Every costume top, bottom and accessory carries its own skill, so an exchange-only outfit can be a build piece. The breakdown in our Shinobi Striker accessory skills guide shows which skills suit each role.
3. Save for SS pieces you missed. If an older SS set rotates in, that is usually the best use of a large ticket balance, because those sets otherwise depend on luck in the scroll lineup.
4. Do not expect master rewards here. Ninjutsu, Secret Techniques and costumes from DLC masters come from training, not from the shop. The full list of masters is in our Shinobi Striker DLC characters list.

How Season 10 Changes Item Hunting

The April 2026 roadmap on the official Naruto site made an important change: starting in Season 10, SS+ items are permanently available, with new and older SS+ items alternating in the lineup and updates posted on the official X account. Previously released SS+ items also return with new forms and abilities. That reduces the pressure to spend everything the moment a rare item appears, because SS+ gear is no longer a one-time window.

The August 2026 developer letter is a good example of the rhythm: it paired four brand-new SS+ items with four returning favorites in the same featured update and promised further additions on a rolling basis. Every featured lineup is therefore a ticket opportunity as much as an item hunt, because heavy appraising during a lineup produces duplicates, and those duplicates refill your ticket balance for the next Exchange Shop rotation. If you are new and still building your first ninja, our Shinobi Striker character creation guide covers which slots and options matter before you start spending.

A Simple Weekly Ticket Routine

Tickets reward consistency more than bursts of play. Because duplicates convert automatically when you appraise them, the work is really about managing scrolls well. A routine that fits around normal matches looks like this:

1. Clear your Plain Scroll stack before it caps. The wiki notes you can hold at most 500 Plain Scrolls, so a full stack leaves no room for the ones you keep earning. They will not give many tickets, but the Ryo they return pays for Shinobi Boost Seals and shop purchases.
2. Hold Esoteric Scrolls for featured lineups. Since Esoteric Scrolls are your main route to SS duplicates, open them when a lineup contains items you want. Either you get the item, or you get a duplicate that converts into a large ticket payout.
3. Use Single Type Scroll Appraisal when you need one category. If you are chasing a weapon for your main class, narrowing the pool to weapons avoids filling your inventory with costume pieces you will only convert.
4. Check the Exchange Shop after each rotation. Items leave after a set period, so look before you appraise in case an item you want is already sitting in the shop.
5. Log in during every campaign window. Anniversary ticket gifts required a login before specific deadlines, and missing the window meant missing the reward.

There is a small bonus for trophy hunters too. PowerPyx's trophy guide lists Scroll Appraiser for appraising 50 scrolls and the silver Rare Connoisseur for appraising 500, so a steady appraisal habit chips away at both while it builds your ticket balance.

If You Would Rather Not Farm It

Building a ticket balance big enough for multiple SS pieces takes hundreds of scroll appraisals. If you play on PlayStation and want your wardrobe and scrolls filled from the start, the Shinobi Striker modded save for PS4 and PS5 lists unlock all including DLC, all clothes and max scrolls, along with infinite ultimate, ninjutsu and sub-weapon effects. It is the save file only, applied directly to your PlayStation profile, and the account being modified needs its own active PlayStation Plus. The rest of the game's options are on the Shinobi Striker hub page.
