Dirham is the main currency you will use in Assassin’s Creed Mirage for the majority of your purchases. That said, even as you complete various missions and contracts for the Hidden Ones, you might find yourself with relatively few coins to your name.
Thankfully, there is a spot where you can quickly amass hundreds of Dirham.
Pickpocketing is by far the easiest and most lucrative way to make Dirham in Assassin’s Creed Mirage. There are only a few areas around ancient Baghdad with densely populated centers to effectively farm, but these areas are great spots to make lots of money.
If you are trying to make Dirham in Assassin’s Creed Mirage, here’s where you need to go.

Where to farm money in Assassin’s Creed Mirage
The best place to pickpocket and farm Dirham is at the trade area in the Southwestern portion of the Round City. The easiest way to find this densely populated area is by zooming in on the map and locating the Cartographer icon. Place your map marker and head there.
Before you go, you should be aware this area is not only populated with civilians and traders but also tons of guards. I first entered this area with a high notoriety level and ended up fighting more guards than pickpocketing, so make sure to square away your bounty first.
Once at the Cartographer, open your Eagle Vision and you should see dozens of glowing pouches nearby. To seize this opportunity, walk behind the NPC with an available pouch to steal and complete the pickpocket minigame.
How to make pickpocketing easier
If you want to make this experience even easier, you can navigate through the menus and activate Guaranteed Pick Pocket. Activating this option disables the timing mini-game and automatically awards you the pouch’s contents without raising your notoriety level at all. You can also invest skill points into the Pickpocket Master Skill in the Trickster Skill Tree which achieves the same effect.
What happens if there are no pouches to pickpocket?
If you notice the number of available pouches to pickpocket from is dwindling, you can reset them by sitting on a bench and passing time. Afterward, simply activate your Eagle Vision again and get back to the grind.
Whenever I used this method, I didn’t actually get much Dirham straight away, but instead got plenty of small jewelry items like Emerald Rings and Jade Medallions. In many cases, looting jewelry is better than getting small sums of Dirham, as these items sell for much more at traders.

Is this a life-changing sum of Dirham? No, but you and I would be a fool to look a gift horse in the mouth. If you head on over to the Ubisoft Connect rewards page, which you can find on Assassin’s Creed Mirage‘s home menu screen, there will be 50 free Dirham waiting for you.
Click on the option titled “Dirham Pouch” and claim it. Once it’s registered and synced up with your game, Basim’s Dirham pile should be slightly heavier than it was before.
