GTA Online players often search for Cayo Perico Secondary Targets and Cayo Perico Primary Targets value, and for good reason. The Cayo Perico Heist is one of the best moneymakers in the entire game. This article will include what a player can potentially earn from this job after Rockstar Games nerfed the payout a couple of years ago. Normal Mode and Hard Mode also affect the Primary Targets' values, so a distinction between the two will be made below. Otherwise, everything else should be self-explanatory.

It is worth noting that those who take damage can lose some of the value of the loot they've collected thus far. Most GTA Online players seeking to do a perfect run won't have to worry about that since being stealthy is far more efficient.

You're unlikely to take any damage on those playthroughs, making it a moot worry, but it is still worth mentioning. That being said, let's quickly check the GTA Online Cayo Perico Heist Primary and Secondary Target Values guide.

GTA Online players can just steal the Primary Target to finish the mission, although they would miss out on some much-appreciated extra money in doing so. The Cayo Perico Heist can easily make a person just under a million dollars per run. Don't forget: One can do this activity solo or in groups of up to four players.

The only requirement to get started is to own a Kosatka, which costs $2,200,000 outside of rare event weeks that discount it.
