{{Incomplete|Need to add Relics}}
[[Bloons TD 6|''Bloons TD 6'']] introduced many more discount sources. Some of these apply a percentage change in cost, while others apply a flat decrease. Many discount sources only apply to certain towers or upgrades. Placement and upgrade costs, aside from purchasing [[Hero]] levels (which rounds to the nearest 1), are always rounded to a multiple of 5.

If a discount percentage is 100% or higher on a tower or upgrade, it may be obtained for free; [[Primary Mentoring (BTD6)|Primary Mentoring]] for Tier 1 upgrades of Primary Monkeys and [[Monkey City (BTD6)|Monkey City]]'s free Dart Monkeys are examples of this.

{{incomplete|Add a similar structure to the BTD6 one but add BTDB2 stuff}}
[[Bloons TD Battles 2|''Bloons TD Battles 2'']] has a similar variety of discount sources as BTD6, but with certain new sources. Rules for determining discounts is the same as in BTD6; rounding placement and upgrade costs to a multiple of 5, with exception of Heroes which round to the nearest 1, and discount sources may apply flat or percentage buffs that may affect certain types of tower.
