Business Raids are missions in Grand Theft Auto Online, added with the Bikers update. The GTA Online Protagonist's Biker Businesses are raided by the police to seize their product and arrest the staff, or by gangs to steal the product.

These missions are similar to Bunker Raids and Nightclub Raids; they do not require any action from the player, and begin automatically after a certain amount of time has passed. There are six missions in total: one can happen to all businesses, while the other five are exclusive to each business.

Cop Raid[]

“Shit. This is what happens when you don't pay the cops. The dirty bastards raid your business. Save your staff if you can.”

—LJT's call.

“Oh balls! Some cops on the take are about to take your whole workforce into custody so get down there and save 'em.”

—Alternative LJT's call.

“Dammit, I knew we shoulda paid 'em off! We got corrupt cops at the business. Get over there and save the staff.”

—Alternative LJT's call.

Long John Teabag can call the player to tell them that the cops are raiding one of their businesses. The player must kill all ten IAA agents raiding the business.

Take out the enemies attacking your MC's Business.

If the Cops take you down during this mission you will be arrested. If all Members are arrested the [business] will be shut down: all Product and Supplies will be seized.

Once all enemies are eliminated, the player must recover a Police Transporter carrying their staff.

The Cops have arrested some of the staff. Rescue them before the time expires.

“Some of our hard-working staff are being hauled off to jail for nothing more than doing a good day's labor. Find the van and set the people free!”

—LJT's text after elimination the agents.

The player has 30 minutes to fully protect the business; if the player fails, all the stock and supplies will be taken away. If the player then wishes to restart the business, they will need to do the business setup again.

This is the only raid mission which may happen to all five types of businesses.

Post-Mission Phone Calls[]

With the security upgrade[]

Successfully[]

"Well, that was a little too close for comfort. You did well to keep us in business. We're up and running again like it weren't no thing. LJ over."
"You knock us down and we come back stronger! Or, at the same production capacity as before, at least. We're up and running again. Yay. Long John out."
"Phew. Good job protecting the business. Production's up and running like nothing happened. LJT out."

Without security upgrade[]

If the player didn't purchase the security upgrade, Lester's calls will be same for both successful and failed business protection:

"Hey it's LJT. What happened happened, okay? You want to protect against it, you should think about upgrading security at the place. Alright? That's all I got."
"Hey, you know who it is. Uh.. Ooh, that was unfortunate, alright? The only advice I can give would be to upgrade security over there to try to protect against this happening again. Good luck."
