Scrips
Introduction
Scrips is a token system for crafting and gathering introduced in Heavensward. You can earn Scrips by gathering or crafting Collectables after level 56.
Collectables can be turned in at any Collectable Appraiser, locations of which can be found under Scrip Exchange.
The Scrip Exchange, who sits next to the Collectable Appraiser, will accept your scrips and offer gatherer and crafter gear, Soul of the Crafter, Master Crafting III-VIII, gatherer and crafter Materia, and other tokens and crafting materials. Each level tier of the exchange has to be unlocked separately.
Current Scrips
Purple Scrips
Introduced in Patch 6.0 with the release of Endwalker, Purple Scrips are used to purchase endgame items at level 90.
White Scrips
Introduced in Patch 5.0 with the release of Shadowbringers, White Scrips are currently used to purchase all items up to level 80.
Skybuilders' Scrips
In a related way, the currency introduced in Patch 5.21 and earned from the Ishgardian Restoration is called 
Skybuilders' Scrip and is likewise earned by crafting collectables. However, the ingredients and recipes are unique to the restoration, and most materials are exclusively found in the latest iteration of the Diadem.
