What πŸ’΄ means

This is a neutral money emoji. Most people use it when the topic involves Japan, such as trips, anime merchandise, online shopping from Japanese stores or exchange rates. Because China's yuan also uses the Β₯ sign, some people send it for yuan or renminbi too. Outside those cases it works like any other banknote emoji and simply means money, paying or getting paid. It carries less excitement than πŸ’° or πŸ’Έ.

In texting

It usually points to a price, a payment or a budget, especially for Japan. If there is no Japan link, the sender probably just means money.
