Mario Coins take the place of regular coins for players using a Mario Card. There are 25 Mario Coins located in each course, except in Challenge games. In Time Attack, this is reduced to 10 if in 150cc (this does not apply to 100cc). If a player collects a certain number of Mario Coins, they will gain a special private kart for the character or a character-exclusive special item. Even if the player loses coins by bumping into a wall or taking damage, it will still count towards the player's Mario Coin total at the end of the race (lost coins that regenerate on later laps are instead normal coins). Bonus Mario Coins are awarded for the player's finishing position (finishing time in Time Attack) and their performance in the Challenge game if one is played.
These types of coin only appear if the player is using a Mario Card. They are found on every course in the game. The player can collect these types of coins that are on the ground. If a player collects a certain number of Mario Coins, he or she will gain a special private kart for the character or gain a special item only for him or her. The player can lose these types of coins like the ordinary coins by simply bumping into a wall.
 
There are also two other ways to earn Mario Coins: finishing high in a race and playing Challenge Games.

The player can also earn Mario Coins through Challenge Games. A player can play a Challenge Game by clearing all courses within a cup in 1st place (this will also happen if the player selects a cup they have already completed and finishes 1st on the round that they selected to race on). Regardless of the Challenge Game, the maximum Mario Coins the player can earn is 15. The table is as follows:

The Mario Coin reappears in ''Mario Kart Arcade GP DX'', the sequel to ''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2''. Unlike the previous game, Mario Coin appears on all game versions whether the player is using save data or not. A notable change is without the loss of Mario Coin by bumping into a wall. In international versions, it serves no purpose. A player can unlock content by earning 50 Mario Coins.
The Mario Coin reappears in ''Mario Kart Arcade GP DX'', the sequel to ''Mario Kart Arcade GP 2''. Unlike the previous game, Mario Coin appears on all game versions except v1.06 of the international version whether the player is using save data or not. In international versions on versions before v1.06, it serves no purpose. There are now 35 Mario Coins laid out on each track. For every 50 Mario Coins collected, the player gets a Slot Chance where the player can unlock an item, special kart, or an extra character.

While playing races is one way to earn Mario Coins, there are also other ways to earn Mario Coins, depending on the current game version and the events that are taking place.


==Trivia==
A player can also earn Mario Coins through some other purpose, such as selecting the right chest after winning a one-on-one battle in the [[Mario Kart Arcade GP DX#National Battle|National Battle]] mode.
*[[File:MKT Icon TeamtokenMario.png|thumb|80px]]Team Mario's [[Event token|team tokens]] from ''[[Mario Kart Tour]]'' resemble Mario Coins.


In April 21, 2016; an update was added to the Japanese cabinets. Here, Banapassport users gain 50 Mario Coin if they use inserted credits to [[continue]] their game after their race, called a '''Continue Bonus'''.
