GTA Online’s Payphone Hits missions are great solo and multiplayer Free Roam activities to complete as part of The Contract Update, providing great monetary, XP, and miscellaneous item rewards for their completion. You’ll be able to find out in this article, how they’re unlocked, which missions are available, and what you can expect to receive as a reward for their completion.
What are Payphone Hits in GTA Online?
GTA Online Payphone Hits are a set of Free Roam missions that were added alongside the Security Contracts from The Contract Update. As they’re free-roam missions, you’ll need to have previously purchased some form of Organization, or a Motorcycle Club, as you’ll need access to the CEO’s computer that accompanies them.
As you’ve probably guessed from the name, security contracts require you to protect the cargo or shipments of various Los Santos businesses. Furthermore, there are five types of contracts to expect: Gang Termination, Liquidize Assets, Recover Valuables, and Rescue Operation.
Therefore, there is a healthy variety among the contracts to prevent these from just being a relentless grind before you get to do the missions you’re really wanting to do.
How to Unlock Payphone Hits in GTA Online
Once you have access to a CEO computer, Franklin will guide you toward the security contracts, so it’s quite hard to miss the. After you’ve completed three contracts you’ll unlock the Payphone Hits missions via a phone call from Franklin.
If you continue completing contracts you can expect to unlock discounts on various vehicles for each five you complete.
Lastly, if you’re wanting to complete every single Payphone Hits mission, it’s important that you find some Organization or Motorcycle Club members to help, as two of the hits are only available when playing with two or more teammates.
The Missions
There are currently 8 individual Payphone Hits available in GTA Online. Therefore, the Hit List is as follows: The Ceo, The Cofounder, The Popstar, The Judge, The Tech Entrepreneur, The Dealers, The Trolls, and The Hitmen.
- The CEO: This hit will take place on a construction site, and you’re incentivized to make the hit appear as an industrial accident.
- The Cofounder: You’ll be assigned to assassinate a man exiting a motel, if you destroy his vehicle with him inside, you’ll receive the bonus.
- The Popstar: You’ll need to pull off drive-by shootings, intimidation, and destruction for this mission.
- The Judge: Head to the Los Santos Golf Club for this assassination, if you use a Golf Club you’ll get a bonus.
- The Tech Entrepreneur: This mission is basically the same as the previous hotel mission. However, if you use a taxi for the mission, you’ll receive a bonus.
