What FiveM Scripts Actually Cost (2026 Price Survey, 13 Stores)

Real listed prices from 13 FiveM script stores, collected July 2026: what banking, garage, MDT, police and drug scripts cost, plus the pricing tricks buyers miss.

The short answer

Across 60 publicly listed prices we recorded from 13 FiveM stores on 2026-07-15, single premium scripts cluster tightly: utility resources run $5–$20, mid-tier systems $25–$40, and flagship systems (banking, police, gangs, housing, drugs) sit at roughly $40–$58. The most expensive single non-bundle script we found was an MDT at $69.99; all-catalog bundles reach $240–$615. Subscriptions now run alongside one-time purchase at $15–$56/month.

Why nobody had written this down

Before buying a FiveM script, most server owners want one number: is this a normal price? There was no page to answer that. Every store publishes its own prices; none publish the market's. So we collected them.

This survey records 60 publicly listed prices from 13 storefronts, observed on 2026-07-15. Every figure below was visible on a page anyone can open. Nothing is estimated, and nothing is currency-converted — a euro price stays a euro price, because converting it would make it our guess rather than the store's number. Where a store showed a sale, we recorded both the sale price and the struck-through original.

The price bands, by category

These figures are USD-only, exclude subscriptions and bundles, and are computed live from our dataset — the same numbers our page renders, so they cannot drift from the table below.

Read the sample size before the median. Where we found two or fewer prices in a category we mark it thin and you should treat it as an anecdote, not a rate. That's a limit of what stores render publicly, and we would rather show you the gap than paper over it.

  • Utility and UI resources (notify, scoreboard, text UI): roughly $5–$20.
  • Mid-tier systems (evidence, admin menus, multi-job, spawn): roughly $15–$30.
  • Flagship systems (banking, full police job, gangs, ambulance, housing, drugs): roughly $40–$58 — the densest cluster in the market.
  • The priciest single script we recorded: an MDT and dispatch system at $69.99.
  • Catalog bundles: $240.99 for one store's full bundle; €614.99 for another store's all-scripts package; individual themed bundles $20–$390.
  • Free tiers exist at most serious stores — several vendors list genuinely free resources next to paid ones.

Four things the price tag doesn't tell you

The number on the card is the least interesting part of what we found. Four patterns matter more to what you actually pay.

First: at one major store, bundles are not discounts. Four bundles are priced at exactly the sum of their components — three of them at one cent above it. Banking + Billing lists at €69.99 against €69.98 of parts. Buying the bundle costs a penny more than buying both scripts. That is a packaging convenience marketed in a category called 'Hot'.

Second: displayed currency is not always charged currency. One store displays £30 for its garage script while the page itself states you are charged $40. Their own footer explains that displayed prices are estimates converted once a day. At real exchange rates £30 is well under $40, so the price you read is not the price you pay.

Third: an evergreen countdown is not a sale. Every page we fetched at one store on 15 July carried a 'black friday sales! Ends in 23:59:59' banner, frozen at 23:59:59, in July. The underlying discount is partly real — two products showed genuine 15% strikethroughs — but two others in the same store showed no discount at all behind the same banner.

Fourth: the same script can cost more on the official marketplace. One vendor's drugs script is $57.00 on their own store and $58.99 on the Cfx.re Marketplace — about 3.5% more, consistent with a marketplace fee passed through to you. That's a single paired observation, so treat it as a hypothesis worth checking on the product you want.

Refund terms vary more than prices do

The spread on refund windows is wider, in practical terms, than most of the price gaps in this survey. As displayed on-page on 2026-07-15: one store offers 14 days, two offer 7 days (one excluding subscriptions), and two state that sales are final once purchased with no refund after purchase.

Between a 14-day window and no window at all sits the entire question of who carries the risk when a script doesn't fit your server. A $40 script you can return is a cheaper purchase than a $30 script you cannot.

What we could not price, and why that matters

Two of the largest stores in this market do not put prices in their page HTML at all — the numbers are injected by JavaScript after load. We could read their full product descriptions, feature lists and FAQs, but recorded zero prices from them. The Cfx.re Marketplace's filter and creator pages behave the same way; our marketplace figures come from its homepage and individual package pages, which means they sample featured listings rather than the whole catalog.

This is worth naming because it shapes what any buyer can learn. A market where the biggest sellers' prices are invisible to anything but a live browser is a market where price comparison is deliberately difficult. Our full list of what we could not verify ships alongside the data.

Where Vice Drip sits in these bands

We are publishing this survey knowing it prices us in public, so here is the position plainly. Our foundation bridge and announcements resource are free and fully unescrowed. Our paid systems are set against the bands above rather than against a competitor's anchor: jobs and garage at $24.99, crime economy at $34.99, gangs at $27.99, and the audited banking engine at $39.99 — the low edge of the flagship cluster where the survey puts comparable systems at $44.99 to $58.00.

These are launch prices and they may move before the studio pricing lock. When they do, this page gets re-collected and re-dated rather than quietly edited.

Frequently asked

How much does a FiveM script cost?

From 60 listed prices across 13 stores on 2026-07-15: utility resources run about $5–$20, mid-tier systems $25–$40, and flagship systems like banking, police jobs, gangs and housing cluster at about $40–$58. The most expensive single script recorded was an MDT at $69.99.

Why do FiveM script prices vary so much between stores?

Scope, mostly — a single-purpose police tool and an all-in-one police system are both 'police scripts'. But display currency, marketplace fees, permanent sale banners and bundles priced at the sum of their parts all move the effective price without changing the scope.

Are FiveM script bundles actually cheaper?

Not always. At one major store we found four bundles priced at exactly the sum of their components, three of them one cent higher. Check the component prices yourself before assuming a bundle saves money — the arithmetic is public.

Should I buy a FiveM script subscription or a one-time license?

Subscriptions ran $15–$56/month across the stores we surveyed and are pitched as the discount against a full catalog. They make sense if you genuinely need many scripts from one vendor; a one-time license makes sense if you need two or three, since your access does not end when you stop paying.

Is a more expensive FiveM script better?

Price does not encode performance or support. Nothing in this survey correlates cost with measured resmon numbers or a published SLA, because almost no store publishes either. Ask for measured performance with a method and date, and read the refund window — those two answers separate scripts more reliably than price does.

How was this price data collected?

Every price was read from a publicly reachable storefront page on 2026-07-15 and stored with its source URL. No estimates, no currency conversion, no inference. Stores that render prices only in-browser are listed as unverified rather than guessed at.
