Best Money Methods During a GTA Online Bonus Week
Updated June 2026 · GTABonuses.com editorial
Not all bonus weeks are equal, and not all bonuses are worth your time. This guide ranks the most common GTA Online money-making methods by efficiency — so you can make the most of whatever is active this week.
Key principle
A 4× multiplier on a slow activity can pay less per hour than a 2× multiplier on a fast one. Always consider time-to-complete, not just the multiplier shown.
Cayo Perico Heist (Finale)
Highest solo payout in the game. At 2× it pays over $2M per run. Preps take ~30 min, finale ~15 min.
Acid Lab Sell Missions
Most consistent solo earner. Each sell mission takes 10–15 min. At 2× you earn ~$500–700k per mission.
Contact Missions (Lamar, Gerald)
Completely free to access. Fast missions averaging 10–12 minutes. At 3× these are the best free activity any week.
Pacific Standard Heist
Best team heist payout. Finale pays $1.25M base; at 2× that's $2.5M split 4 ways — ~$625k each in 20–25 minutes.
MC Business Sell Missions
Passive accumulation + active sells. Cocaine lockup at 2× pays well for the time investment.
Nightclub Sell Missions
Good for players who already have the setup. Best when combined with Acid Lab production.
Adversary Modes
Short rounds but depends on lobby quality. At 3× they can rival mission rates but are less reliable.
Races
Low base payout even at 2×. Only worth grinding if the prize ride target is a vehicle you want.
