Best ways to earn money fast in Gray Zone Warfare

Cash Register in Gray Zone Warfare
Many players ignore Cash Registers, but they are a great way to earn money fast.

Here are some tips on how to maximize your money earning in Gray Zone Warfare:

  • Try to complete the ‘Leave No Man Behind‘ task from Gunny, as it will grant you a great backpack that can carry up to 3 big weapons.
  • When looting weapons, inspect them and select ‘Unload,’ as cartridges are worth only a couple of bucks, and expelling the magazine will save space when placing them in the backpack,
  • Check every cash register in shops. Most players seem to ignore these, but they usually contain between 100 and 500 dollars. Money clips can also be safely stowed in your safe storage for up to 200000 total (50 K each square).
  • Check containers. Drawers, large wooden crates, or blue crates marked with the UNLR distinctive.
  • Pressing Left Ctrl+Right Click will place the item directly on your available inventory slots, so you can loot fast and prevent enemies from catching you off-guard.
  • Follow a safe extraction route, that way you can prevent losing money and valuables.

Keep in mind that loot in containers has a few seconds of delay to appear, the same can happen when you loot another player’s corpse, or yours. So wait a few seconds before closing the prompt window, and the loot will appear. If nothing happens after five seconds, then the container is empty.
