How much money do flags and survey sites give?

What are the flags and survey sites in Moon Sweepers?

Two kinds of find pay cash when you reach them: country flags on small poles and survey sites. Both sit on the lunar surface. The money comes from the find itself, not from selling dust.

Where should you look for flags and survey sites?

The early areas are:

  • Just beyond the mountains around North station.
  • Along the routes toward the East and West stations.

An early exploration trip along those routes can bring in a few thousand dollars. The Moon Map guide covers waypoints and travel between discovered stations, which helps you plan the walk out and back.

What is one trip worth?

A few thousand dollars is large next to the first prices in the game. As listed in the upgrade matrix and cleaning tools table for patch 1.0.4:

Early purchase Cost
Household Broom $25
Building Tool $50
Market Contracts I $120

A trip in that range covers those opening purchases several times over.

How does this fit with selling dust?

Flags and survey sites pay when you find them. Dust is the repeatable income: fill a container, deliver it, spend the money, repeat. The make money fast guide covers sale values for dust, sand and stone and how to run a belt into a station intake so sales happen without you.

Spend what you find on whichever upgrade fixes the slowest part of your current loop: a better brush if sweeping takes longest, container capacity if you keep walking back to the depot, or the Building Tool if you want belts sooner. The beginner guide covers that order in practice, and the core loop explains how a delivery turns into a faster session.
