The developer describes tickets as the reward that connects the roguelite arcade machine to the wider arcade and its meta progression.

What are tickets for?
Tickets connect performance in the arcade machine to exploration and progression in the surrounding arcade. The developer’s press kit describes that connection as the reason repeated roguelite runs contribute to a larger goal.
Tickets and gacha balls serve different roles
Gacha balls are the upgrade system found through the levels. Tickets are part of the wider arcade progression. The public description does not establish a single conversion rate between them, a best farming route or a fixed ticket requirement for every story step.
How to decide what to do next
As a spoiler-light approach, read the current arcade interaction before spending, then decide whether you want to pursue its displayed goal or explore another machine. This is editorial advice, not a claim that one spending order is optimal.
If your question is about an upgrade pool rather than the wider arcade, use the gacha availability guide. If a coin pickup stops working after a death in first-person mode, see the documented patch fix; do not assume coins and tickets are the same system.
