Are you interested in getting infinite weapon and skill XP within a few minutes? There’s a new glitch in Payday 3 that allows you to do just that.
Equip the weapons and skill trees you want to level up and simply run the 99 Roads heist. Then, as you’re ready to escape, keep going in and out of the escape area.
In this guide, I will explain how to get infinite XP fast in Payday 3 through a glitch in the 99 Roads heist. However, this will be patched soon so make sure to use it before it gets fixed.

Infinite XP Glitch in Payday 3

To get infinite weapon and skill XP, select the 99 Roads heist solo or with others and complete it loud or stealth. Once you transfer both items to the truck, you’ll be able to escape. Simply walk over to the escape zone and keep moving in and out.
Each time you go in and the escape timer starts but you don’t escape, the game counts it as if you escaped and you get XP rewards. Thus, if you go in and out three times and then actually escape, you’ll get 3x the normal XP.
Now, imagine going in and out 50 times. This will grant you enough XP to reach max weapon level and unlock any skills from trees you have equipped. The max level for each weapon is different, with some capping as soon as level 11, while others reach up to level 20.
Some things to keep in mind while replicating the 99 Boxes XP glitch in Payday 3 are the following:
- It can only be done in the 99 Roads Heist.
- It can be done in any difficulty – select Normal to make the run easier/faster.
- It can be done solo or with any number of players. If you have other players in your team, everyone should stay still in the extract zone except one player who should be going in and out. Then, everyone will get the rewards.
- It can be done loud or stealth. If you choose loud, you’ll need to have good armor since you have to go in and out of the escape zone while the cops are shooting at you.
- It can be done in public lobbies. Most players are aware of this glitch so if you queue 99 Boxes Public on Normal difficulty, you’ll find others doing it.
Keep in mind that this will grant you XP only for your equipped weapons and skills. Thus, start the heist with a primary and secondary weapon that you want to level up and equip skills from the trees you want to max out.
Also, you’ll get skill XP. To make the most out of this, unlock one skill from each tree you have locked and it will max out by the end of the heist.
One last thing to remember is that you might not see the XP rewards right after ending the heist. If you don’t see the rewards (20,000-30,000 XP), restart the game and/or play another heist. It will update right after.
As for when the devs will fix the 99 Boxes glitch, there is no official confirmation but we expect it to be fixed when the next major update is released, on October 5.
Wrapping up
In conclusion, to replicate the Payday 3 infinite XP glitch, join the 99 Boxes heist on solo or with others and complete it loud or stealth.
Once you’re at the escape zone, keep going in and out for about 2-3 minutes and you’ll be able to reach max level on your equipped weapons.
