This is intentional.
In many games, some things cost "gold" earned by playing the game, and others cost "gems" bought with real money. Or maybe "gold" is the one that costs real money. It's designed to be confusing and hide the distinction between in-game points and real money.
At some point the game companies should bear some of the responsibility for deceiving children.
