The experience points of GTA Online: earning RP raises your character's rank, which unlocks weapons, upgrades and activities.
What are Reputation Points (RP) in GTA Online?
Reputation Points (RP) are GTA Online's experience points. Almost every activity, from missions and heists to races and even stunts, gives RP, and enough RP raises your rank. Ranks unlock weapons, vehicle upgrades, clothing and activities, and the cap is rank 8000. In GTA Online, RP is separate from money: Shark Cards give cash, not rank.
How RP and rank work
Each rank needs more RP than the last, so the early ranks fly by and the later ones take longer. Most of the important weapon and upgrade unlocks come early, while very high ranks are mainly a sign of how much someone has played.
Fast ways to earn RP
- Weekly bonuses: Rockstar regularly runs 2x and 3x RP events on specific modes.
- Heists and contracts: high payouts in RP as well as GTA$.
- Races and Adversary Modes: quick sessions that give steady RP.
- Daily objectives: small extra RP bonuses just for logging in and playing.
Example
A player at rank 12 is locked out of some weapons and activities. During a 2x RP week they grind contact missions and races and reach rank 50 in a weekend.
RP in GTA Roleplay vs GTA Online
"RP" can also mean roleplay, the community servers where players act out characters. In GTA Online's menus and stats, RP always means Reputation Points.
