# Acquire Monster Card

## 1. Monster Card Acquisition Process

① Users can purchase a gate key at the shop. ② Users can enter the gate using the gate key purchased from the shop. ③ After entering the gate, the user will obtain a random box, which can be opened after clearing the gate. ④ Users can open a random box to receive a monster card as a reward. ⑤ You can check the monster cards you have acquired at [collection](/user-guide/collection-inventory/collection.md)/ [Inventory](/user-guide/collection-inventory/inventory.md). ## 2. Purchasing and Using Gate Keys Gate keys can be purchased in advance from a shop or bought immediately during the gate entry process. Users can only enter gate grades permitted by their Hunter Rank.
