GTA ONLINE DR. DRE CONTRACT: HOW MUCH DOES THE FINALE ACTUALLY PAY?
Updated October 6, 2026 · Fan-maintained — not affiliated with Rockstar Games
The Dr. Dre Contract finale pays $1,099,800 to the host on the first completion after the weekly reset. A repeat completion in that same weekly period pays $900,000. Security Contracts pay separate tier-based amounts that do not combine into a cumulative total.
Finale payout: first run vs repeat
The host's first completion of the Don't F*ck With Dre finale after the weekly reset pays $1,099,800. This is the higher of the two finale payouts. Any repeat completion within the same weekly period pays $900,000. The game tracks your completion status for the week, so changing sessions or running with a different crew does not reset the repeat payout.
| Condition | Host payout |
|---|---|
| First completion after weekly reset | $1,099,800 |
| Repeat completion within same weekly period | $900,000 |
| Recovering a Data Leak (leader bonus) | $100,000 |
The table lists the two finale conditions and the separate Data Leak bonus. The Data Leak bonus is not part of the finale payout. It is a separate $100,000 payment for the leader when you recover a Data Leak.
What counts as a first completion
Your first completion after the weekly reset qualifies for $1,099,800. The weekly reset happens on Thursday. If you complete the finale, then the reset occurs, your next completion is again a first completion for the new weekly period and pays $1,099,800. This means you can earn the higher payout after each weekly reset.
What counts as a repeat
Any completion after your first in the same weekly period pays $900,000. This applies even if you complete the finale with a different crew or in a different session. The repeat payout remains $900,000 until the next weekly reset.
Data Leak bonus
Recovering a Data Leak adds a $100,000 bonus for the leader. This bonus is separate from the finale payout. It is not paid again for repeat completions in the same weekly period. The bonus applies when you recover the Data Leak during the contract. Do not add this $100,000 to the finale payout figures.
The $100,000 Data Leak bonus is separate from the finale payout. Do not add it to the $1,099,800 or $900,000 figures.
Security Contract pay tiers
Security Contracts pay based on your current tier. The amounts are per contract, not a cumulative total. You do not add the ranges together. The table shows the pay range for each tier.
| Tier | Pay range per contract |
|---|---|
| Professional | $31,000 to $42,000 |
| Specialist | $44,000 to $56,000 |
| Specialist+ | $60,000 to $70,000 |
Professional tier
The Professional tier pays $31,000 to $42,000 per Security Contract. This is the lowest tier available.
Specialist tier
The Specialist tier pays $44,000 to $56,000 per Security Contract. This tier unlocks after you complete enough contracts to advance.
Specialist+ tier
The Specialist+ tier pays $60,000 to $70,000 per Security Contract. This is the highest paying tier for Security Contracts.
These payouts are for the leader. Crew members may receive different amounts, but those figures are not covered here.
How the Dr. Dre Contract works
The Dr. Dre Contract is a multi-part job available through the Agency. You start by purchasing an Agency, then begin the VIP Contract. The contract includes setup missions, Security Contracts, and the finale. The finale is called Don't F*ck With Dre. The host receives the payouts listed in this guide.
The Data Leak is one of the objectives during the contract. Recovering it triggers the $100,000 leader bonus. This bonus is separate from any Security Contract payouts and from the finale payout.
Weekly reset timing
The weekly reset happens on Thursday. The first completion after that reset pays $1,099,800. If you run the finale again before the next reset, the payout drops to $900,000. Waiting for the next reset restores the higher payout. Plan your runs around the reset if you want to maximize the host payout.
Practical notes for hosts
- Complete the finale after the weekly reset to get $1,099,800.
- Avoid repeating the finale in the same weekly period if you want the higher payout.
- Recover a Data Leak to get the separate $100,000 leader bonus.
- Run Security Contracts at the Specialist+ tier to earn $60,000 to $70,000 per contract.
