Looking to make some extra cash in GTA Online while cruising around Los Santos? Taxi Work might just be your ticket! Here’s all you need to know to get started:
Summary
Getting Started with GTA Online Taxi Work
When you’re ready to dip your toes into the world of Taxi Work, keep an eye on your phone for a text from the Downtown Cab Co. They’ll give you the green light to start, and you’ll spot their office marked on your map, just south of the Diamond Resort and Casino.
Head over to the office, stroll past the arm wrestling marker, and climb up the stairs. Interact with the doors at the top to kick off your Taxi Work journey. You’ll snag your cabbie license and hop into a Vapid Taxi to kick things off. And hey, if you already own a Vapid Taxi, just click the right stick while driving it to jump straight into Taxi Work mode – no need to swing by the Downtown Cab Co.
Completing Fares in GTA Online Taxi Work
So, how does it all work? Well, this version of Taxi Work is a bit different from the classic missions of yesteryears. Now, you’ll have one customer at a time, and there’s no rush to get them to their destination. Cruise on over to the flashing blue character on your map, give a friendly beep of your horn to pick them up, then follow the route to their drop-off point.
Keep in mind, the bigger the tip, the better, but it shrinks over time and with any fender-benders. So, drive smoothly and swiftly to maximize your earnings. But don’t sweat it too much – a few bumps won’t break the bank. You can keep at it until you decide to bail out of the cab, wreck it, or attract some unwanted police attention.
Rewards of GTA Online Taxi Work
Sure, the main perk of Taxi Work is the cash you rake in from fares and tips. Starting at around $1,000 per ride and climbing with each successful drop-off (up to 10 in a row), it’s not a bad way to pad your wallet. Plus, after completing your first 10 trips in a row, you’ll snag a 25% discount on the Vapid Taxi from Warstock Cache & Carry.
But wait, there’s more! Rack up a total of 50 taxi fares, and you’ll unlock the Downtown Cab Company livery for the Classique Broadway. And if you’re feeling adventurous, pull off 10 stunt jumps during Taxi Work to earn the Downtown Cab Company livery for the Willard Eudora. These used to be just for looks, but thanks to Rockstar’s June 2023 updates, you can now use these vehicles for Taxi Work with the appropriate paint job.
