Payphone Hits Overview
Payphone Hits are a series of assassination missions in GTA Online that were added as part of the Contract DLC. You can complete the assassination missions in free roam by either getting a random call from Franklin Clinton or by requesting a hit by calling him yourself.
The missions, assigned by Franklin, task you with eliminating various targets across Los Santos. The hits come with optional specific execution methods to earn a profitable assassination bonus. This hub will cover how to unlock and start Payphone Hits, explain the payout structure, detail the cooldown period, showcase rewards, answer frequently asked questions, and provide links to detailed guides for each of the eight unique hit types.
The Payphone Hits are unlocked after you complete at least three security contract missions. Once you've completed three security contract missions, you need to drive around in free roam until a payphone icon flashes on your mini-map.
Go to the payphone and answer the phone to start your first payphone hit mission. The missions you get are always random.
Once you've completed your first payphone mission, you can then order a payphone hit by calling Franklin directly from your mobile phone.
All the missions can be completed solo except The Hitmen and The Dealers. The Hitmen and Dealers' missions can only be completed if you have at least one player in your organization. You can complete these missions in either public, solo, or invite-only sessions.
Each hit mission has three different variants and has a special condition. If you meet the special condition, it grants you extra cash called the assassination bonus. The assassination bonus is always revealed a few seconds after you start the mission. It will be shown as a pop-up at the top-left corner of your screen and also as a text message from Franklin.
