GTA Online quadruples Freemode Challenge rewards as a new bonus period begins

GTA Online’s new bonus period gives players four times the usual GTA$ and RP on Freemode Challenges. The multiplier runs from November 12 through December 2, alongside boosted rewards for Stunt Races and Contact Missions.

Rockstar’s timing gives players several weeks to take advantage of the bonuses, including the November 19 launch of Grand Theft Auto VI. The rewards are for GTA Online activities; Rockstar has not said they transfer to the new game.

The Rockstar announcement lists the Freemode Challenge and Stunt Race multipliers through December 2. It follows a Heist Event with separate offers that ended November 11.

Four times the rewards for Freemode Challenges

The headline bonus applies to Freemode Challenges, the competitive activities that can appear during free roam. The fourfold multiplier covers both GTA$ and RP, the in-game money and reputation points used to progress a character.

It should not be confused with a blanket increase for every activity in the game. Rockstar identifies Freemode Challenges specifically, while other modes have their own rates.

The Stunt Race Series pays three times GTA$ and RP during the same November 12 to December 2 window. Rockstar also lists triple rewards for the Community Series and double rewards for Sumo (Remix).

Contact Missions pay more too

All Contact Missions pay double rewards through December 2, according to Rockstar. The announcement names Madrazo’s Dispatch Services, Gerald’s Last Play, Premium Deluxe Repo Work and Lowriders among the eligible missions.

GTA+ members can receive four times the usual rewards on Contact Missions during that period because the membership bonus stacks with the general promotion. GTA+ is a paid subscription; the standard double Contact Mission offer and the Freemode Challenge multiplier are separate from that membership boost. On PC, Rockstar says GTA+ benefits require the Enhanced version of GTA Online, rather than GTA V Legacy.

Rockstar’s GTA+ benefits page says members can start a Contact Mission from the in-game iFruit phone. Players should check the current in-game event information before joining a particular activity.

For anyone choosing how to spend a session, the key distinction is the type of activity: four times rewards for Freemode Challenges, three times for Stunt Races, and double for Contact Missions before the additional GTA+ benefit. The multipliers are temporary, so check them in-game if you play close to the end of the event.
