 Having a Vault Access Card to loot the inner vault is worth an extra 800--1100\ credits in [[:modes:Beginner]] or [[:modes:Experienced]] modes, or 600--825\ credits in [[:modes:Expert]] or [[:modes:Expert Plus]] modes, compared to just looting the outer vault. Therefore, if there is a Vault mission on the [[:world map]] already, then the Vault Access Card takes 0.4 or 0.6 missions respectively to pay for itself; this is one of the best possible financial investments in the game. If there is no Vault on the world map then it may take a few missions to find one, but buying the Vault Access Card is still generally a good investment, although it is a much higher-variance one than most other investments. Having a Vault Access Card to loot the inner vault is worth an extra 800--1100\ credits in [[:modes:Beginner]] or [[:modes:Experienced]] modes, or 600--825\ credits in [[:modes:Expert]] or [[:modes:Expert Plus]] modes, compared to just looting the outer vault.

 +In [[:modes:Custom]] game modes with a 0.5 credit multiplier, such as [[:modes:expert_plus_plus|Expert++]], the value of looting an inner vault is 400--550\ credits. In this case the investment barely makes a profit on average, and usually isn't worth it.
  
 The Vault Access Card can alternatively be used in a [[:missions:Cybernetics Lab]] mission, but buying it for this purpose is not a financial investment. The Vault Access Card can alternatively be used in a [[:missions:Cybernetics Lab]] mission, but buying it for this purpose is not a financial investment.
