Palworld Bounty Officer Locations: Where to Trade Successful Bounty Tokens
Quick answer
Bounty Officers stand in villages and towns. The three most useful are at Fisherman's Point, Small Settlement, and Duneshelter. All carry the same stock, so use whichever is closest to your farm circuit.
Tokens are worthless in your bag. The officers who buy them sit in three settlements, and one of them is the one you actually want.
Successful Bounty Tokens are described in game as something you give to a Vigilante Bounty Officer in villages or towns. That is accurate but unhelpfully vague, so here is the practical version: the officers stand in settlements, three of which are worth knowing, and the stock is the same list of permanent Pal upgrades at each.

Materials
A token of having defeated a bounty target. By giving it to a Vigilante Bounty Officer in villages or towns, it can be exchanged for a reward.

Where to find them
Fisherman's Point
The most convenient officer for most players, because Fisherman's Point sits on the main progression path and you will have the Fast Travel point long before you have tokens to spend. Use this one for routine cash-outs while you are still building your stat fruit collection.
Small Settlement
The backup option and a useful anchor if your farm circuit runs through that region. Same stock, different location, so pick whichever is closer to where you are killing bounty targets.
Duneshelter
The desert town, and the one to use if you are running a late-game circuit. Duneshelter is a full settlement with other merchants nearby, so a cash-out trip here can also restock ammo, spheres, and materials in the same stop.

Merchant locationsWhat the officer sells
The stock is short and every item on it is a permanent upgrade rather than a consumable convenience. That is what makes the bounty loop worth structuring instead of doing casually.

Precious fruit that is extremely difficult to obtain. Slightly increases a Pal's Attack.
Stout Fruit

Buying priority
- Power Fruit first if you are stuck on a damage check, like a Hard Mode tower you cannot finish in time.
- Stout Fruit first if you are dying rather than running out of clock.
- Life Fruit for tanks, mounts, and anything you want to survive an Ultra Raid opener.
- Ripe Starfruit only when a Pal is already at condenser rank three, because that is where the 24 duplicate cost makes 50 tokens worth it.

Ripe Starfruit spendingPractical trip planning
- Do not travel until you have a clean multiple of 25 tokens. A trip for 23 tokens is a wasted trip.
- Set your farm circuit's Fast Travel anchor near whichever settlement you cash out at. Duneshelter suits Feybreak circuits well.
- Batch your purchases. Buying four fruits at once means one trip instead of four.
- Bring your spending list decided in advance. It is very easy to buy a Ripe Starfruit you cannot use yet.
Hard bounty tokens
There is a second currency, the Successful Hard Bounty Token, which comes from the harder bounty tier. Treat it as a separate wallet and check the officer's stock for what it specifically buys on your version, since the harder tier is where the more expensive rewards live.
