How to change your license plate in GTA Online

Grand Theft Auto players can customize their rides in many ways, and one of them is to change their license plate. Here’s how to get unique plates in GTA Online.

With GTA Online being out for almost eight years, players have accumulated a ton of unique and powerful vehicles. Even more vehicles arrived in the Los Santos Tuners update, and you can always take a spin at the weekly Prize Ride.

With all of your cars in your collection, you want to personalize them and make them your own. One way to do this is to equip a personalized license plate and this isn’t straightforward, so here’s how to do it.

How to change license plate in GTA Online

Where many players may become tripped up when trying to change their license plate is that you can’t actually do it inside of GTA itself. You’ll need to download an app and change it from there.

The first time you create a custom plate will be free, but you’ll be charged $100,000 for every new plate afterward.

Here’s how to change your license plate in GTA Online:

1. Download the iFruit app on the App Store or Google Play Store
2. Sign in with your Rockstar Social Club account
3. Select the LS Custom app
4. Scroll down until you see your GTA Online account
5. Click on your desired vehicle
6. Select the license plate in the top right corner
7. Press ‘+’ to add a new plate
8. Type in your new license plate (up to eight characters)
9. Select the color
10. Save the plate
11. Launch GTA Online on your console or PC
12. Drive the selected vehicle to a LS Custom Shop
13. Accept the ‘Process App Order’ prompt
14. Navigate to the ‘Plate’ category in the shop
15. Select your new custom license plate

It’s worth noting that the iFruit app is now dated and may not work properly on your phone. Several players have reported that the app constantly crashes and there doesn’t appear to be a solution. Maybe Rockstar will give the app an overhaul with the upcoming Expanded and Enhanced Edition of GTA V.
