Just like in real life, it’s tax season in GTA Online . Don’t worry about filling out forms or hiring a shady CPA though, because everyone will get a refund. There is also a program to give players cash back for all purchases made this week.
To get your tax refund, all you have to do is log into GTA Online any time between now and Feb. 26. Once you log on, you’ll have secured your $250,000 of GTA$. The cash won’t instantly be rewarded though, so check back between Feb. 27 and March 6 to see that nice addition to your bank account.
Additionally, Rockstar is running a cash back program from now until Feb. 26. 10 percent of all purchases made during the timeframe will be refunded, up to $1,000,000 GTA$. This means any new car you buy or property you purchase will be slightly cheaper. Like the tax refund, this money will also be delivered to players’ bank accounts between Feb. 27 and March 6.
If you really want to take advantage of the deals, be sure to check out the list of discounted items in GTA Online this week. As we previously reported , vehicles, properties, clothing and more are all on sale right now. Add the cash back to the discounts, and you’re saving some serious dough.
