The GTA Online Money Fronts update is here, providing plenty of opportunities to set up fresh money laundering enterprises to fund your criminal empire. The first of these is the Hands On Car Wash, in what may well be a nod to Walter White's endeavors in Breaking Bad, but it's not made clear how you actually purchase this business so you can get started on cleaning up your dirty cash.

Maintaining appearances is important in GTA Online, especially if you want to convince the authorities that your fresh businesses are actually legit, so you may need to roll up your sleeves and put in some elbow grease to maintain the facade. However, if you're not sure what to do first, then here's how to get the car wash and start the Money Fronts update in GTA Online.

Make sure you also check out the GTA Online new cars arriving with the Money Fronts update, as well as how to complete GTA Online Safeguard deliveries and GTA Online QuickiePharm deliveries.

How to start GTA Online Money Fronts

To get the car wash in GTA Online Money Fronts and start your money laundering business, you need to head to Los Santos International Airport and approach the marker for our old 'friend' Martin Madrazo. He will then pick you up and take you to a private meeting with crime boss Mr. Faber, before his fixer Raf De Angelis explains more while driving you to the car wash location.

With this initiation complete, you can now head to the Maze Bank Foreclosures website on your phone where you'll find the Hands On Car Wash property for sale – unlike some of the other businesses, there is only one location available for this venture. The purchase price is GTA$1,000,000 plus a nominal GTA$10,000 additional charge to change the color of the interior, with no other customization options available.

Inside the Hands On Car Wash, you can access the laptop to initiate Money Laundering jobs for extra cash, or take on Mr Faber Work to assist the boss with your own brand of 'problem solving', and both of these can also be started by calling Raf directly on your phone. Taking on these missions will increase the Heat on your business, represented by the bar in the corner of the screen, and if this gets too high your passive income will stop until you complete some legal activities (such as collecting and washing clients' cars) to cool things down again.

After setting up the Hands On Car Wash business, there are a further two money laundering enterprises you can invest in for more opportunities to earn illicit funds. These can be accessed by choosing the 'Expand operation' option from your laptop at the car wash or visiting the Maze Bank Foreclosures website, and are priced as follows:

  • Higgins Helitours - GTA$900,000
  • Smoke On The Water - GTA$850,000

As well as the earnings from the money laundering businesses themselves, owning them will also boost the income from your other enterprises, which will be funneled straight into the safe at the car wash. The boosted business opportunities are as follows:

  • Smoke On The Water - Weed Farm Sales

A number of general improvements are also being made with the GTA Online Money Fronts update, such as rolling out Missile Lock-On Jammer capability to another 50 vehicles, doubling Arena Points, and making certain cutscenes skippable when replaying missions. The Boxville Van Delivery Vehicle is being removed from Biker Sell Missions, while the global signal timer for public session Sell Missions will be delayed. GTA+ members will also get a second daily spin of The Diamond Casino's Lucky Wheel, and more.

That's everything you need to know to start GTA Online Money Fronts, so now you can get laundering that dirty cash and turning it into clean money.
