GTA Online Dispatch Work: A Full Guide to Vincent's & Madrazo's Missions

A common point of confusion for players is that there are two different types of "Dispatch" missions in GTA Online. This guide will cover both: the modern "Dispatch Work" for Vincent and the classic "Dispatch" contact missions from Martin Madrazo.

👮 Vincent's "Dispatch Work" (Vigilante Missions)

This is the newer set of freemode missions added with the Bottom Dollar Bounties update. These are quick, solo-friendly vigilante-style jobs you can run from your personal police car.

How to Start Vincent's Dispatch Work

You must complete two prerequisites before you can begin:

1. Complete the "Slush Fund" Mission: You must first play through the Cluckin' Bell Farm Raid as a leader at least once. This is the first setup mission for the raid, which is started by a call from Vincent.

2. Buy a Personal Police Vehicle: After completing "Slush Fund," you will unlock the ability to purchase law enforcement vehicles from Warstock Cache & Carry. You must own one of the following:

   • Gauntlet Interceptor

   • Unmarked Cruiser

   • Stanier LE Cruiser

   • Greenwood Cruiser

   • Dorado Cruiser

   • Impaler SZ Cruiser

Once you own one of these cars, get in it and make sure you are not registered as a CEO, VIP, or MC President. You will then be prompted to press a button to begin Dispatch Work (Right-stick on console, or 'B' on PC). Vincent will then call you with a mission.

Payout and Cooldown

• Payout: Each mission gives a flat rate of $25,000, regardless of how long it takes. This can be doubled or tripled during special event weeks.

• Cooldown: There is a very short cooldown of approximately 1 minute between missions, making them highly repeatable.

Mission Types

There are four random missions Vincent will send you on:

• Civil Disturbance: Travel to a location and take out a group of specified targets.

• Possession for Sale: Go to a location, eliminate the criminals, and steal a package of drugs. You must then deliver this package to a drop-off point.

• Malicious Mischief: A gang is planting bombs. Head to the site, clear out the enemies, and disarm the bombs (this requires a simple button-press minigame at each bomb site).

• Officer Monitored: Infiltrate an area to find and retrieve a piece of evidence. This is often a laptop or briefcase, which you must then deliver to a drop-off location.

Unlocking Police Vehicle Trade Prices

Completing this work is the only way to unlock the Trade Prices for other police vehicles:

• Greenwood Cruiser: Complete 5 Dispatch Work missions.

• Dorado Cruiser: Complete the "Officer Monitored" mission.

• Impaler SZ Cruiser: Complete the "Possession for Sale" mission.

🤵 Martin Madrazo's "Dispatch" Missions (Contact Missions)

These are the older, classic contact missions. They are assassination-focused missions that can be played with multiple people.

How to Start Madrazo's Dispatch Missions

You can start these missions in one of two ways:

1. Pause Menu: Go to Pause > Online > Jobs > Play Job > Rockstar Created > Missions > and select "Dispatch I," "Dispatch II," "Dispatch III," "Dispatch IV," "Dispatch V," or "Dispatch VI."

2. On the Map: Go to the "Mz" (Martin Madrazo) icon at his house in the Vinewood Hills and walk into the mission marker.

Payout and Player Count

• Player Count: These missions were originally 2-4 players, but have since been updated. All six missions can be played 1-4 players, making them completely solo-friendly.

• Payout: This is the standard time-based payout for contact missions. The longer you take (up to 15 minutes) and the higher the difficulty, the more cash and RP you will earn.

The 6 "Dispatch" Missions

1. Dispatch I: Go to the Mission Row police station, find the target (a high-profile snitch) in a holding cell, and eliminate him. Be prepared for a heavy police response.

2. Dispatch II: Infiltrate the Merryweather HQ at the docks, locate the target inside the main office, and take him out.

3. Dispatch III: The target is at a hangar in Los Santos International Airport (LSIA). You must eliminate him before he escapes.

4. Dispatch IV: Head to the recycling plant in La Puerta. The target is hidden deep inside the facility.

5. Dispatch V: This mission is different, as you are tasked with eliminating five targets spread across various rooftops and high-security locations in the city.

6. Dispatch VI: Your goal is to intercept and destroy an armed convoy. This is the only mission of the set that is mobile.

Tips for Madrazo's Missions

• Use Armored Vehicles: An Armored Kuruma makes most of these missions trivial, as you can drive into the compounds and shoot enemies from complete safety.

• Use Weaponized Aircraft: For missions with outdoor targets like Dispatch III and V, an Oppressor Mk II or Deluxo makes reaching and eliminating the targets incredibly fast and easy.

• Set to Hard: For the best payout, always set the difficulty to Hard. If you are using an armored vehicle, the difficulty increase is barely noticeable.
