Being paid with isk is clear for everyone but new missioneers often forget about the Loyalty points that they gain whilst running missions. Loyalty Points are a currency that you receive from the Corporation whose agent gives you a mission. These points can be used to buy things at the Corporation's store. These points (plus a small amount of ISK or items) can be exchanged for valuable items in the Loyalty Points store of the mission agent's corporation. For some players it is more profitable to accumulate Loyalty Points in order to exchange them for goods which can then be sold than it is to kill, loot and salvage in security missions. See [[Loyalty Points]] for more details on what to do with LP. | Being paid with isk is clear for everyone but new missioneers often forget about the Loyalty points that they gain whilst running missions.

This means that an agent in 0.5 security system pays 50% more than an agent in 1.00 security system. (confirm? All sources from before agent update. Some say that standing gain scales too). | The mission isk and LP rewards also scale with the system security of the agent by extra 10% reward per 0.1 decrease in security rating.
