Rockstar Games has rolled out a timely special promotion for GTA Online players, giving them a substantial boost to their in-game funds right before the launch of the highly anticipated Kortz Center Heist update.

Scheduled to arrive on July 14, 2026, the new content drop marks a major summer event for the game. It centers on a fresh multi-stage heist that lets players infiltrate the iconic Kortz Center, a prestigious art gallery filled with priceless international works. Participants will need to add an Art Studio to their Mansion property to prepare for scoping, planning approaches, and executing the operation.

To help players build up their bank accounts ahead of the update's expected costs and new opportunities, Rockstar is offering a limited-time 40% bonus GTA$ on select Shark Card purchases.

Details of the Shark Card Promotion

The offer applies to three qualifying Shark Cards:
  • Great White Shark Card: Base value GTA$1,500,000 becomes GTA$2,100,000 (extra GTA$600,000)
  • Whale Shark Card: Base value GTA$4,250,000 becomes GTA$5,950,000 (extra GTA$1,700,000)
  • Megalodon Shark Card: Base value GTA$10,000,000 becomes GTA$14,000,000 (extra GTA$4,000,000)

Players who claim the offer can receive the bonus on up to five qualifying Shark Card purchases. GTA+ subscribers normally receive a 15% bonus on Shark Cards, but this new promotion overrides that rate for the first five purchases without stacking.

How to Claim the Offer

To activate the bonus, visit the official GTA Online page on the Rockstar Games website and look for the section labeled “Get 40% Bonus GTA$ on Qualifying Shark Cards.” Click the CLAIM NOW button, sign in with your Rockstar Games account linked to your GTA Online character, and confirm the offer on the accounts screen.

Key deadlines:

  • Claim the offer by 11:59 p.m. ET on July 22, 2026.
  • Make qualifying purchases by 11:59 p.m. ET on August 6, 2026 (up to five cards).

GTA$ from purchases and the bonus may take up to 72 hours to appear in your Maze Bank account.

This promotion gives players an efficient way to stockpile funds for the new heist, potential property upgrades, vehicles, and other content arriving with the Kortz Center update. It complements ongoing in-game events, including the Independence Day celebrations running through mid-July and the Fine Art Collector program, which has been delivering login rewards, heist bonuses, free vehicles, and exclusive items to help players prepare.

Rockstar continues to support GTA Online with meaningful content and player-friendly offers even as the community looks ahead to future titles. Players interested in maximizing their earnings before the July 14 update should claim the bonus soon and plan their Shark Card purchases accordingly.
