Keycards are a type of Uncategorized Item in Fortnite: Battle Royale, that are used to open Vaults at a specific location. They were first introduced in Chapter 2: Season 2.
Functionality
Keycards are used to open Vaults situated at specific locations. Only the allocated Keycard will open a specific vault. Simply having a Keycard in the inventory when interacting with its designated vault will open it.
Keycards take up a slot in the Player's inventory. If held, they ping the location of the vault with a three-dimensional arrow in front of the player, every few seconds.
List of Keycards
All Keycards (with the exception of the Epic Unstable Element and the Mythic Solunar Key) are of Legendary Rarity and have a stack size of 1.

- The Yacht Keycard after Deadpool's release was the only Keycard that could've been obtained twice in a single match until the introduction of Highcards in Chapter 4: Season 2, whom could spawn with the Vault Keycard in 3 places at once.
- The Agency and Yacht Keycards are not present in Fortnite: Creative as they reuse the same icons as the Fortilla Keycard.
- The Fortilla Keycard was prioritised because the Agency Keycard got converted into The Authority Keycard. This can be confirmed by looking at their Item Ids.
- The Vault Keycard is the only Keycard to be in three identical copies, dropped by several bosses and not to have the name of a POI.
- The Forecast Tower Access Key is the only Keycard to last more than one season in a row, lasting four seasons in Chapter 5.
- Medallions functioned almost identically to Keycards in Chapter 5: Season 1 and Chapter 5: Season 3.
- Keycards have the most reskins out of all the items in the game.
- There is an unused SHADOW Keycard added in Update v12.00 that was later redesigned into the Authority Keycard in the following season.
- It's possible that the Keycards of each agent's location would also have changed to reflect their alignment based on the most chosen style by the players.
