The Contract Payout

There are three ways that you can earn money from The Contract update.

Security Contracts

Security Contracts can be accepted through your office computer in The Agency. They pay anything from $20,000 upwards for a basic GTA mission (like stealing back a car). They're a good way of making large chunks of money quickly.

Payphone Hits

Once you know how to complete payphone hits, the payment for completing a hit can be good. So far, we've had hits pay out no less than $15,000. However, it's important to remember that you can only get the maximum payout for a payphone hit if you fulfill the hit bonus. You can check what the bonus requirements are while you are heading to the target's location.

VIP Contract

If you want to make a lot of money really quickly, then the VIP contract missions are the way to do it. Once you have learned how to unlock the VIP contract, you can start working your way through the missions to track Dre's phone down. You get a substanial payout after completing each mission. After you complete all of the listed missions for this contract, you will be paid $1,000,000 in one go.

We will update this guide as we learn more.

The Contract DLC for GTA Online brought in a lot of new perks for you if you own an Agency. We have a guide that shows you how to access agency services, which include private company vehicles. Also, we have a guide that shows you how to get the stun gun and one on how to get the compact EMP launcher. These are two of the weapons that came with the update and we recommend getting them before starting the VIP contract.
