I played Monopoly GO as a lone wolf for the longest time, but as my gaming buddies got a hold of what I was playing while queueing for a new League of Legends match, my friends list started to grow in numbers. There are a couple of ways you can add friends in Monopoly Go, and I’ll show you all the methods.

Adding friends on Monopoly GO

There are three ways you can use to add friends on Monopoly GO. Contacts, Facebook, and the Invite link allow you to connect with other users. Here’s how you can find them.

  • Launch Monopoly GO and click on the Friends icon at the bottom of your screen.
  • Click on Contacts or Facebook, and grant Monopoly GO the required permissions to automatically add your friends.

1) Add Monopoly Go friends via Facebook and Contacts

When you click on Contact and Facebook, Monopoly GO will ask for your phone number and Facebook permissions, respectively. Once you provide these details, the game will automatically add your friends already playing Monopoly GO. If you want to invite a friend who’s never played Monopoly GO before, you’ll need to use the invite button to get them to try the game for the first time.

2) Use your Monopoly GO link to add friends

To get your Monopoly GO link, click on the Friends tab in the main menu, and press the green Invite button.

Simply copy your link after pressing the invite button and send it to your friends who’d like to try out Monopoly GO. Upon pressing the link, they will be directed to the game’s Apple or Google Play store pages, depending on their platform.

What are the benefits of adding friends in Monopoly GO?

Adding friends in Monopoly GO is beneficial when it comes to getting stickers. With more friends, you’ll be able to trade and receive more gifts which will result in you getting more goodies.

How to fix the failed to add friends error in Monopoly GO

You just pressed the Contact and Facebook buttons on Monopoly GO’s Friends tab, but no one showed up in your Timeline and Leaderboard. This means none of your Facebook friends or Contacts play Monopoly GO. You don’t have to feel sad, though, since this is also an opportunity to invite them to the game via the green Invite button.

If you had friends showing up on your Timeline and Leaderboard, but they’re now missing, there’s a chance that Monopoly GO is down so you should check its server status.
