SWGOH is a Freemium game, meaning you can play it for free (F2P) or pay(P2P) to buy crystals to speed progress up. It is VERY forgiving for F2P players! You really don't need to spend money on this game. But you need to play smartly then, and preserve your crystal consumption. Here's some tips:
1.) NEVER, and I mean NEVER, buy Chromium Packs. They are the biggest waste of crystals. It's random, you can't control who you will get, and there are some characters that are Chromium only so they only way to make them viable is to keep buying chromium packs until they get to 7*.
2.) The best use of crystals are the 100 refreshes of cantina energy and the 50 refreshes of Light/Dark battles. This lets you focus on specific characters to farm their shards.
3.) Focus on a small group of characters. Do not keep leveling and promoting all of them. Credits become a huge bottleneck at high levels, so preserve your cash. Only upgrade viable characters! Check my other sticky on what the best character options are for each section of the game.
4.) Brand new to the game? Cantina Battles will unlock after Light and Dark Battles. Complete up to 1-E and start farming the heck out of Lando. Spend cantina currency on QuiGon Jin. When arenas unlock, spend your currency on STHan. When Galactic War unlocks, get a decent Luminara, to say 4 or 5 stars, then switch to Phasma.
5.) You should always be working on a good scoundrel team whenever you can. Lando, Boba Fett and STHan are definites. IG88 and Greedo are in Arena shards. There is a credit heist event that launches every 6-10 days and the credit reward is huge.
