Surviving an abandoned, desolate wasteland such as that of Chernobyl in Stalker 2 requires having an ample amount of currency to get around. In the game, Coupons are the means to get around and procure items, repair or upgrade weaponry, and more. However, large amounts of these are difficult to come by during normal gameplay, which can pose some challenges.
Acquiring Coupons quickly can help make it easier to get items — this can be rather useful, especially early in the game when resources and available weaponry may be limited. Below are some methods to acquire Coupons faster.

Farming Coupons in Stalker 2
Coupons can be acquired by completing side missions or selling items or weapons to traders. For side missions, head over to various NPCs scattered around the map who provide quests that can net a healthy amount of Coupons for completing their provided side quests.
Play through the main campaign to receive Coupons for completing story quests, and make sure to complete the many side quests found across the map. These combined can net a healthy amount of currency while simultaneously giving you a chance to acquire new items, weapons, or Artifacts from enemies.
Items can also be sold to traders to acquire Coupons. These include healing items, weapons, and Artifacts. Additionally, items such as bandages, grenades, and medkits can be sold in case there is no use for them and can net you a decent amount of Coupons.
In the case of weapons, do note that heavily damaged weapons might be rejected by traders. When weapons start glowing red, it means their durability is low. Hence, if damaged weapons are dropped by defeated enemies or are found in the world, it is likely best to avoid using precious inventory space to store them in the hopes of selling them to a trader.
The same applies to armor as well, as broken armor will do the wearer no good, meaning traders may likely refuse to buy it from you in exchange for some Coupons.
As for Artifacts, selling them can be a more reliable way to farm Coupons. These can be acquired across the map and sold to traders in exchange for some currency. In most cases, few or no enemies are encountered in the process, making this a great way to get Coupons quickly. Do remember, however, that some Artifacts may have high Radiation levels that can affect health.
