Shoppers (Lightmans currency addon)
Shoppers, a Lightman's Currency addon by Enzonic Studios, adds NPC customers that walk to player-owned shops and buy products from them.
What it does
Shoppers spawns customers 24 to 40 blocks from an active player-owned shop and has them pathfind toward the shop, so commercial hubs fill with buyers over time. Shoppers can look through shop stock, purchase goods, operate ATMs and try their luck on casino slot machines, so singleplayer worlds and multiplayer servers gain economic activity from them. The addon needs Lightman's Currency, and it runs on NeoForge 1.21.1 only.
Each customer uses one of the biome-specific skins for Plains, Taiga, Desert or Snow, layered over the standard villager model. Each one picks a name from over 50 finance-flavored choices like Scrooge McDirt, Stonks Steve or WallStreet Wally, and the name floats in 3D over its head. Customers walk at the speed of standard vanilla villagers rather than moving erratically.
The addon is published for NeoForge 1.21.1, with the 1.0.2 file dated 2026-08-06 as the latest build. It is released under the Apache License 2.0 and is not open source. The server and every player need the mod installed.
Key features
Targeted spawning
Customers appear near active player-owned shops, so buyers come to the shops that are open for business.
Biome-specific skins
Customers wear layered clothing that matches Plains, Taiga, Desert or Snow biomes.
Economy-themed names
More than 50 names are shown above customer heads, drawn from economy and finance jokes.
Coin-based purchases
Holding iron, gold, emerald or netherite coins gives access to cheap food and blocks, everyday items, tools and armor, or high-value goods such as enchanted books and elytra.

How it compares
Survival Currency is a NeoForge currency mod for 1.21.1 with the same client and server environment, but it is released under All rights reserved and is not open source. BeruiiuServerShop is a NeoForge shop mod for 1.21.1 with the same environment and the same All rights reserved license, so neither of these adds NPC customers the way Shoppers does. Coins is a Fabric and NeoForge mod for 1.21.8 that is server required with an optional client and is open source under the MIT License.
