One thing that Mass Effect couldn't quite settle on was how many credits Shepard deserved for doing their work. While Mass Effect 1 has a pretty balanced credit system, Mass Effect 2's is infamously bad (which is strange, considering you're working for a privately funded organization instead of the publicly-funded government...).

Mass Effect 3 bounced back a bit, but players were still grasping for every credit they could get their hands on. This guide will walk you through the ways that you'll be able to farm money quickly (and avoid wasting it) in each Mass Effect game.

Updated April 23, 2023, by Sean Murray: We've updated this guide with a few formatting tweaks so you can make easy credits.

General Tips To Save Money As You Go

Mass Effect Legendary Edition: How To Farm Money Quickly (1)
  • Don't buy decorative items
  • Only purchase upgrades for the weapons you regularly use
  • Don't overspend on fuel — your mining resources can take the hit if need be
  • Try to only purchase at stores once you've earned a discount there
  • Be thorough when going through missions to earn credits from every datapad, terminal, etc.

There aren't a lot of reasons you'd need extra credits in the first Mass Effect since the system is fairly balanced, but these are the best tricks to farming more in case you're running low.

1. Churn Out Money With The Dr. Michel Method

Mass Effect Legendary Edition: How To Farm Money Quickly (3)

The Dr. Michel method is a system in Mass Effect 1 in which you can sell gear for double the credits, compared to what it would usually be worth — over and over again — as detailed by user idapotato on GameFAQs.

  1. Do not sell any loot or equipment you obtain during the game, even if you're not using it
  2. Complete the side quest Citadel: Doctor Michel
  3. As a result of the completed quest, Dr. Michel will sell her goods to you for cheaper and buy your items for twice their normal value
  4. Sell all the loot you've acquired up until this point to Dr. Michel
  5. Buy the most expensive item you can afford from Dr. Michel's shop and sell it back to her
  6. Take the Citadel Rapid Transit to the Market
  7. Approach the closest merchant and go to their "Buyback" tab
  8. Buy all the loot you just sold from the other merchant for half of what Dr. Michel paid
  9. Take the Citadel Rapid Transit back to Dr. Michel's clinic and repeat the process

By following this simple guide, players can earn truly enormous amounts of money in the blink of an eye.

Purchasing the Medical Exoskeleton and doing this process with only that item will provide 60,000 credits per trip.

2. Get Lucky Gambling Your Money On The Citadel

Mass Effect Legendary Edition: How To Farm Money Quickly (4)

There's a system of gambling available in the first Mass Effect game that can be used to farm credits. You'll want to play a game of "Quasar," located on the Citadel in the Flux Nightclub or the Silver Coast Casino. Similar to Blackjack, Quasar players are looking to get as close as possible to 20 without going over.

You'll know what to pick depending on what you have at the start of the game. If you have...

  • 1, 2, 6, 7, 8, 13, 14, or 15, choose the "4-7" option
  • 3. 4, 5, 9, 10, 11, 12, or 16, choose the "1-8" option
  • 17, 18, 19, or 20, choose the "stay" option

You won't win every game, but you'll win more than you lose — and rake in credits while you're at it.

How To Farm Money In Mass Effect 2

Mass Effect Legendary Edition: How To Farm Money Quickly (5)
(Video) Mass Effect Legendary Edition - Infinite Credits Glitch - Free Money And Weapons Cheat

Mass Effect 2 is notoriously unbalanced when it comes to credits. You'll be running low on funds a lot of the time and there aren't really any ways of farming them reliably. But, here are a couple of tips while you're playing to make sure you're raking in as much dough as possible.

1. Don't Waste Your Money On Probes

Mass Effect Legendary Edition: How To Farm Money Quickly (6)

It's unbelievably easy to get caught up probing a planet and forget that each probe is costing you credits. The first time players run out of money is usually after mining a planet completely hollow.

This is totally unnecessary — on your wallet and on your time. Only use probes to mine planets that are labeled as "Good" or "Rich." Even then, not all "Good" planets are worth it, so proceed with caution.

2. Farm Money In An Unconventional Way By Going Easy On The Medi-Gel

Mass Effect Legendary Edition: How To Farm Money Quickly (7)

It may have gone over your head that anytime you find medi-gel in the field but your medi-gel supply is already full, you receive credits instead. This is a great way to earn extra cash if you're comfortable not using your medi-gel as much so that you're always picking up those credits.

To help yourself in this endeavour, you should:

  • Not upgrade your medi-gel capacity (unless you're consistently dying)
  • Develop your build and your squad around the assumption you won't use medi-gel
  • Not revive dead squadmates in battle — they revive without using up medi-gel after all enemies have been dealt with
  • Not heal yourself with medi-gel unless absolutely necessary

This trick also works in Mass Effect 3, but there are more reliable ways to farm credits in that game.

3. Betting On Varren Fights

Mass Effect Legendary Edition: How To Farm Money Quickly (8)

There are varren (dog-like reptiles) in the Urdnot Camp on Tuchanka that you can bet on. Once you find the fighting pit, look for a nearby computer that allows you to bet 250 credits on a varren of your choice. The trick to winning big money in these varren fights is to bet your money on Urz.

Urz is a special varren with a unique skin color whose previous handler was exiled. You can find him near a merchant named Ratch in the Urdnot Camp, but you won't be able to bet on him yet. First, follow these steps.

  1. Talk to Ratch, who will give you a side quest to do called 'Tuchanka: Killing Pyjaks.'
  2. Complete 'Tuchanka: Killing Pyjaks' and return to Ratch.
  3. You can now obtain a free item through Ratch's store: Pyjak Meat.
  4. Feed the Pyjak Meat to Urz so that he will start to follow you.
  5. Take Urz to the fighting pit to enter him as a fighter.
  6. Place a bet on Urz.

The cost of placing a bet on Urz is much higher than the other varren (500 credits) but he's also much stronger than the others and more likely to win. Now, you have two options:

  • First, you could just keep betting on Urz until he loses. After a loss, Urz is injured and cannot be bet on again. If you leave the Urdnot Camp and come back, he'll be healthy again and ready to fight.
  • Second, you could just do a quicksave after every win. This would allow you to reload the game when Urz loses, subsequently saving you a bit of time.

How To Farm Credits In Mass Effect 3

Mass Effect Legendary Edition: How To Farm Money Quickly (9)

Mass Effect 3 has a few ways to save money throughout the game, but the biggest farming method arrived in the game's Citadel DLC.

1. Rack Up Money In The Armax Arsenal Arena

Mass Effect Legendary Edition: How To Farm Money Quickly (10)

When you've installed the Citadel DLC for Mass Effect 3, you can find a place called the Armax Arsenal Arena in the Silversun Strip of the Citadel. This is basically a combat simulation room where you and your squad can take on unique challenges and earn points depending on how well you do.

Earning any amount of points can net you some credits, but netting at least 6,000 points will mean you can redeem them for 10,000 credits! There are no restrictions to the number of times you can repeat the simulation, so it's a simple and fun way to farm money.

2. Save Your Money By Avoiding The Requisition Terminal Like The Plague

Mass Effect Legendary Edition: How To Farm Money Quickly (11)

Mass Effect 3 introduced a requisition terminal to the Normandy. It allows the player to purchase items from the comfort of their own spaceship. Though it's tempting to use it, players across the internet will beg you not to.

To have the luxury of getting items right on the Normandy, Shepard must pay a 10% markup compared to what they'd usually pay at a shopfront. This cut adds up quickly, and you'll notice a dramatic difference in your credits total once you stop using it.

3. Get Credits And Fuel By Scanning Planets

Mass Effect Legendary Edition: How To Farm Money Quickly (12)

Now, we don't just mean that you should do your credits and fuel scanning randomly. Instead, reference these lists of planets where you can find significant amounts of credits or fuel (which will save you money by not having to buy it) by scanning there.

You can only do it once for each one, of course, but there's a significant amount you can gather.
