Hustle rewards under ₦25,000 sit on a roughly 20-minute payout cooldown. One "cycle" is the 17-second run plus that wait — the ranker counts full cycles only, so its sustained ₦/hour never assumes burst grinding. Energy drains as you hustle anyway.

By ingame samples, Buy & Resell nets ₦6,650 per cycle at the Wholesale depot — about 3× the ₦2,250 a Carry Load cycle pays at the Loading Bay. Buy & Resell needs ₦800 up front (returned in the payout); Carry Load is free. Note the honest wrinkle: at sample wages, a full shift still beats Carry Load per hour — gigs win on flexibility, since they run any time, not just inside your work window.

The game's official economy policy covers 8 hustle types — cooking, DJ, driving, bodyguard, photography, tutoring, decorating and a custom gig — and caps each reward at ₦10,000,000. That ceiling is anti-exploit headroom, not money on the table: at verified sample rates you would need hours of continuous grinding per payout to touch it. The policy tracker shows the full official snapshot.
