What Are Genesis Crystals?

Genesis Crystals are premium currency in Genshin Impact. You use them to buy Primogems (which fuel gacha wish system), purchase Blessing of Welkin Moon, or buy cosmetic outfits from in-game shop. Genesis Crystals convert to Primogems at a 1:1 ratio, but they are only currency that can buy certain cosmetic items directly, so some players keep a reserve rather than converting everything immediately.

For Malaysian players, there are multiple ways to purchase Genesis Crystals, and pricing and bonuses differ depending on Platform and method you choose.

Genesis Crystal Pricing in Malaysia (MYR)

Here is standard pricing for Genesis Crystals across Platform. Prices listed are approximate MYR values and may shift slightly depending on exchange rates and Platform fees.

| Crystal Amount | MYR Price (Approx.) | First-Time Bonus | Total (First Purchase) | |----------------|---------------------|-------------------|------------------------| | 60 Crystals | RM 3.90 | +60 | 120 Crystals | | 300 Crystals | RM 16.90 | +300 | 600 Crystals | | 980 Crystals | RM 34.90 | +980 | 1,960 Crystals | | 1,980 Crystals | RM 69.90 | +1,980 | 3,960 Crystals | | 3,280 Crystals | RM 109.90 | +3,280 | 6,560 Crystals | | 6,480 Crystals | RM 219.90 | +6,480 | 12,960 Crystals |

first-time buyer bonus doubles your crystals for each denomination. This bonus resets per tier, meaning you get double bonus once for 60-crystal pack, once for 300-crystal pack, and so on. After bonus is used, subsequent purchases give a smaller Teratas-up bonus instead.

Method 1: In-Game Purchase

simplest method is buying directly from in-game Crystal Teratas-Up screen. Open Genshin Impact, go to shop, and tap Genesis Crystals tab.

Available payment methods (PC/mobile):

Credit/debit card (Visa, Mastercard)
On mobile: Apple App Store (iOS) or Google Play Store (Android) billing

If you are on PC, you will be redirected to HoYoverse payment gateway, which supports cards and select e-wallets depending on your region. On mobile, you pay through your respective app store, which means you can use any payment method linked to your Apple ID or Google account.

Important note: Crystals purchased on one Platform stay on that Platform. If you buy on iOS, you can only see those crystals when logged in on iOS. However, once converted to Primogems, they are available across all Platform.

Method 2: HoYoverse Web Teratas-Up (Recommended)

HoYoverse official web Teratas-up centre is Terbaik method for most Malaysian players. It works across all Platform and avoids app store fees that Apple and Google charge.

Cara use it:

Go to HoYoverse Teratas-up centre (search "Genshin Impact Teratas up" on HoYoverse's official site).
Log in with your HoYoverse account.
Select your server (Asia for Malaysian players).
Choose crystal amount.
Select your payment method and complete transaction.

Payment methods:

Touch 'n Go eWallet
GrabPay
Boost
Online banking (FPX — Maybank, CIMB, Public Bank, RHB, Hong Leong, etc.)
Credit/debit card
Razer Gold

This is recommended method because:

It bypasses Apple and Google Platform fees, so pricing is often slightly lower.
It supports all major Malaysian eWallets and banking options.
Crystals are delivered instantly and are accessible on every Platform.

Method 3: Codashop

Codashop is an authorised HoYoverse partner for Genshin Impact Teratas-ups in Malaysia. process is similar to web Teratas-up but with a few added conveniences.

Steps:

Visit Codashop.com and select Genshin Impact.
Enter your HoYoverse UID (found in-game under your profile).
Select server (Asia).
Choose crystal pack.
Pay using your preferred method.

Codashop payment options:

Touch 'n Go eWallet
GrabPay
Boost
FPX online banking
Credit/debit card
Telco billing (Celcom, Digi, Maxis, U Mobile)

Codashop occasionally runs promotions offering bonus crystals or cashback. These are especially common during major Genshin Impact version updates and Malaysian festive periods. Pricing outside of promotions is same as official HoYoverse Teratas-up centre.

Method 4: Apple App Store (iOS)

If you play on iPhone or iPad, you can purchase crystals through App Store. Your Apple ID payment method will be charged. Malaysian Apple IDs support credit/debit cards, Touch 'n Go, and Apple Gift Cards.

You can buy Apple Gift Cards at 7-Eleven, KK Mart, and other retail outlets in Malaysia. Denominations typically range from RM 15 to RM 500.

Downside: Apple takes a Platform commission, so crystal pricing on iOS can be marginally higher than web Teratas-up. Always compare before buying.

Method 5: Google Play Store (Android)

Android players can buy crystals through Google Play billing. Google Play in Malaysia supports:

Credit/debit cards
Touch 'n Go eWallet
GrabPay
Google Play Gift Cards (available at 7-Eleven, KK Mart, Tesco/Lotus's)
Telco billing (Maxis, Celcom, Digi)

Like Apple, Google takes a Platform cut. Pricing is usually comparable to App Store but slightly higher than HoYoverse web Teratas-up.

Welkin Moon vs Genesis Crystals: Value Comparison

Blessing of Welkin Moon is widely considered Terbaik value purchase in Genshin Impact. Here is why.

| Purchase | Cost (MYR) | Primogems Received | Cost Per Primogem | |------------------|------------|--------------------|-------------------| | Welkin Moon | RM 19.90 | 2,700 (over 30 days) | RM 0.0074 | | 300 Crystals | RM 16.90 | 300 | RM 0.0563 | | 3,280 Crystals | RM 109.90 | 3,280 | RM 0.0335 | | 6,480 Crystals | RM 219.90 | 6,480 | RM 0.0339 |

Welkin Moon costs RM 19.90 and gives you 300 Genesis Crystals immediately plus 90 Primogems per day for 30 days, totalling 2,700 Primogems plus 300 crystals. That works out to roughly RM 0.0074 per Primogem — about five times cheaper than buying crystals directly.

If you are a light spender, buying Welkin Moon every month is far more efficient than buying crystal packs. You can stack up to 180 days of Welkin Moon at a time.

For moderate spenders, combining Welkin Moon with Battle Pass (Gnostic Hymn at around RM 39.90) gives you most pull value per ringgit.

First-Time Buyer Bonus Strategy

Since first-time bonus doubles each crystal tier, experienced players recommend claiming bonus across all tiers rather than repeatedly buying same denomination. If you only buy 6,480-crystal pack, you get bonus once for that tier. But if you buy each tier once from 60 to 6,480, you get double bonus on all six tiers for a total of 25,520 crystals from roughly RM 455 — significantly more than buying 6,480 pack twice (12,960 + roughly 6,480 + bonus).

Plan your first-time purchases carefully, especially before a banner featuring a character you want.

Payment Tips for Malaysian Players

Touch 'n Go eWallet is most widely accepted method across all Platform and third-party sellers. If you only maintain one eWallet, TnG covers nearly every scenario.

GrabPay is a Kuat second choice and is supported on Codashop, Google Play, and HoYoverse web Teratas-up centre. Some Grab promotions offer points or cashback on digital purchases.

FPX online banking is reliable and fee-free. Maybank, CIMB, and Public Bank tend to process fastest with fewest timeouts.

Telco billing through Codashop is convenient if you have prepaid credit to spare, but it is generally most expensive method due to carrier surcharges. Avoid this unless you have no other option.

Common Issues

Crystals not appearing after purchase: Wait 10 to 15 minutes. If still missing, check that you are on correct server (Asia) and correct Platform (if bought via iOS or Android, log in on that device). Contact HoYoverse support with your payment receipt if issue persists.

Wrong server selected on web Teratas-up: Crystals go to whichever server you selected during purchase. There is no way to transfer them. Always double-check your server before paying.

HoYoverse UID vs username: Codashop and web Teratas-up require your numeric UID, not your display name. Find your UID in-game by opening your profile — it is nine-digit number at bottom of screen.

Final Recommendations

For absolute Terbaik value as a Malaysian player: buy Welkin Moon monthly through HoYoverse web Teratas-up, pay with Touch 'n Go or FPX, and save your first-time crystal bonuses for when a must-pull banner drops. If you spot a Codashop promotion, take advantage of it — but never buy from unofficial resellers or account sellers, as HoYoverse actively bans accounts involved in fraudulent transactions.
