Loyalty Points (LP) are rewards provided by certain PvE activities, including mission running, incursions, and encounter surveillance systems.

LP are corporation-specific, and can be spent at that corporation's LP stores for certain rewards. LP awarded by CONCORD (CLP) are the exception -- they exchanged for nearly any other corporation's LP.
