Pardons for certain sins in exchange for money are called "indulgences." This practice was particularly prominent in the Catholic Church during the Middle Ages, where individuals could buy indulgences to reduce their time in purgatory or receive forgiveness for sins. The sale of indulgences was one of the key issues that sparked the Protestant Reformation in the 16th century.
