Are purchased resources (e.g., emeralds, VIP points) counted in the corresponding quests progress?

Resources (e.g., emeralds, VIP points, etc.) will be taken into account in the corresponding quest progress only if you have purchased them for yourself. For example, emeralds that you bought for your own account will be counted in the Emerald Waterfalls quests.

Note
If you have received resources from Wendy's Shop as a gift, they will not be taken into account in the corresponding quest progress.
