The Golden Bloon is an event-exclusive type of Bloon in the mobile version of Bloons TD 5. When the event is active, the Golden Bloon only appears on one track at a time (indicated by a Golden Bloon icon), and on that track, it appears once on a random round from 30 to 40 (inclusive). It moves in the reverse direction of other Bloons (meaning it spawns from the exit normally, or from the entrance on Reverse). It has the properties of a Camo Bloon, Lead Bloon, and Ceramic Bloon (meaning it takes extra "juggernaut damage"), and it moves as fast as a Pink Bloon. It drops bundles of Monkey Money when it takes damage and drops a free Special Agent if it is destroyed, which can be collected by the player (they cannot be picked up by Banana Farmers). Leaking a Golden Bloon does not cost any lives.

The Golden Bloon appears on tracks in the following order. After the Golden Bloon appears, regardless of if it was popped, if it escaped, or if the player quits or restarts, it will disappear from the current track and reappear on the next track after one hour.

The value of each Monkey Money bundle is random, but the total amount of money dropped always adds up to a specific amount. On higher difficulties, the range of Monkey Money amounts per bundle, and the total potential Monkey Money, are increased, and it can drop more expensive Special Agents. In the desktop releases, the Monkey Money amounts are doubled.
