How to deposit money in ROB RUN (the Laundering Desk)
The step-by-step deposit route, the capacity change, and the three mistakes that cost players a full bag of cash.
Put dirty cash on the Laundering Desk at your base. It converts to bank credit, which is protected from death and raids. There is no ATM deposit documented; the desk is the deposit. Cash is carried in 25,000 stacks of one inventory cell each, so a full bag is a lot of value in a very stealable place.
Depositing in ROB RUN is a physical act at a physical object. There is no phone banking, no ATM menu, and no way to protect cash from the street.
The deposit, step by step
- Get the cash to your base Not to a safe in the city — to the plot where the Laundering Desk is installed.
- Open the Laundering Desk Interact with the desk and load the cash into it. Capacity was massively increased in the 4 November change.
- Wait for the transfer The desk converts dirty cash into bank credit. The amount that lands is the amount you loaded, minus any settlement-level tax that applies to laundering.
- Verify the balance Check the account before you assume the money is safe. A failed transfer you did not notice is the same as a loss.

Three mistakes that cost a bag
- Depositing at someone else’s settlement without checking the tax. You are paying for safety, and the rate is set by a player who may change it.
- Using a vehicle trunk as a vault. Kefir states any player can lockpick and raid a vehicle trunk at any time, anywhere in the city. A car is a delivery tool, not storage.
- Logging off with cash in the base. Raids happen offline. The desk exists so that a bad night costs you gear, not your savings.
Where the money goes when you die
Death rules depend on the role you were in and who killed you. The short version: a cop arrest or a surrender costs your bag; dying to another criminal while masked can cost everything you carry; bank credit is unaffected by either. The Federal Raid is different — it clears cash at the end of the cycle. The full table is in death, surrender and jail.
