Pay is per shift, five shifts a week. Ranks 1-4 show the Grade I–IV range (Grade I is formula-derived, marked calc.); Rank 5 is a single top pay. ×N marks ladders with multiple sub-tracks sharing the pay. Use the Career filter to isolate one ladder.
Pays are read from the live game — published figures for ranks 1 and 5, calculator interpolation between them (marked calc.). If your game shows different numbers, the game is right; tell us and we re-verify.
FAQ
What is the highest paying career in Lagos Life?
Music tops out at ₦99,000 per shift as an Afrobeats Giant. Gated tracks (Oil & Gas, Aviation, Product Management) start roughly double the ungated ladders because they need skill level 3 to apply.
Why are some rows marked as estimates?
Rank 1 and rank 5 figures are published; ranks 2-4 are geometric estimates between them — the same numbers the Salary Calculator shows — and every estimated row is marked. Only Refining has all five ranks observed, so it carries no estimates.
What do the two pay figures on each row mean?
Each of the first four ranks has grades I-IV: the range shows Grade I to Grade IV per shift (Grade I is derived with the grade formula we verified against ingame anchors, within ₦100). Rank 5 is a single top pay — no grades. Grades per rank are in the Salary Calculator.
