Roblox Robux Payout: Up to 25% More on Official Channels
This is the highest-value, most-overlooked rule in the entire purchase flow.
What Roblox officially states
In "Ways to Get Robux," Roblox says you can purchase Robux in the mobile, browser, PlayStation and Xbox apps — but when you purchase on the web, on computers and with gift cards, you receive up to 25% more Robux.
The official FAQ adds two clarifications:
- Not a promotion: "we plan to keep this new pricing in place globally"
- Older gift cards count too: cards purchased before November 26, 2024 also receive up to 25% more Robux
Roblox Robux Price Tiers (USD, verified September 26, 2026)
| Price | Website / computer / gift card | Mobile & console (standard) | Bonus | Cost per Robux |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| $2.99 | 270 Robux | 240 | +12.5% | $0.01107 |
| $4.99 | 500 Robux | 400 | +25.0% | $0.00998 |
| $9.99 | 1000 Robux | 800 | +25.0% | $0.00999 |
| $14.99 | 1500 Robux | 1200 | +25.0% | $0.00999 |
| $19.99 | 2000 Robux | 1700 | +17.6% | $0.00999 |
| $34.99 | 3625 Robux | 3150 | +15.1% | $0.00965 |
| $49.99 | 5250 Robux | 4500 | +16.7% | $0.00952 |
| $99.99 | 11000 Robux | 10000 | +10.0% | $0.00909 |
| $199.99 | 24000 Robux | 22500 | +6.7% | $0.00833 |
Three counterintuitive findings:
- The bonus peaks in the mid tiers (14.99 at +25%), not at the top — the "up to" in Roblox's "up to 25% more Robux" matters, and the largest tiers actually get the smallest bonus percentage.
- The lowest cost per Robux is the 0.00833) — volume pricing, despite the smallest bonus percentage.
- How to choose: to minimize unit cost, go large; to test the waters or control budget, pick 14.99, where the bonus is highest and the unit cost is already near the low end.

What that means for value
For the same spend:
- Mobile in-app purchase → standard tier
- Website / computer / gift card → standard tier + up to 25%
That effective discount already beats what most subscriptions offer. Before debating memberships, make sure you're buying through official web channels — it costs nothing.
Roblox Premium Is Discontinued: Official Timeline
This is the biggest change to Roblox's subscription lineup in 2026, documented on Roblox's own "Roblox Premium Membership" page.
| Date | Change |
|---|---|
| April 30, 2026 | Roblox Premium is no longer available for purchase. Existing subscribers may keep their subscription, but cancelling means you can never resubscribe |
| May 30, 2026 | Premium benefits change (see below) |
What changed (official)
| Benefit | After the change |
|---|---|
| Monthly Robux stipend | ✅ Retained (based on your plan) |
| Trading and reselling items | ✅ Retained |
| Publish avatar items and keep them on sale | ✅ Retained (Premium 1000/2200 only) |
| 10% bonus on Robux purchases | ❌ Ended |
| Premium logo | ❌ Removed |
Three notes for existing Premium members
- Don't cancel casually — once cancelled, resubscription isn't available, and the retained monthly stipend has no exact equivalent in the new lineup.
- Stop counting on the 10% purchase bonus — it ended May 30, 2026. Buying through official web channels (up to +25%) is now better anyway.
- Want to keep selling avatar items? If you're not on Premium 1000/2200, you'll need Roblox Plus — Roblox requires Plus or Premium 1000/2200 to publish avatar assets.
Roblox Plus Explained: The 10%–20% Discount Subscription
Roblox Plus is positioned differently from Premium: it's a benefits-only subscription with no monthly Robux stipend included.
Official benefits
| Benefit | Detail |
|---|---|
| 10% discount | Immediate discount on in-game items, avatars and more |
| 20% discount | From your third consecutive month, the discount rises to 20% |
| Free private servers | Across all supported games; since September 24, one free private server per game |
| Free Robux transfers | No platform fee to send Robux (a Plus-exclusive sending benefit) |
| Unlimited trading | Trade Limited items as many times as you want |
| Resell avatar items | Resell Limited items bought from Roblox or other creators |
| Publish and sell avatar items | Requires Plus or Premium 1000/2200 |
| Reach wider audiences | Fulfils one criterion for your game to be seen by users of all ages |
Two limits you need to know
1) Discounts don't apply to (officially excluded):
Items over 1,000,000 Robux, resold items, ads credit, UGC publishing fees, and group fees (name or creation).
2) Robux transfers have safety requirements:
Everyone involved must be age-verified and 18+ to send or receive. Users under 18 need parent or caregiver approval. Roblox notes these safety requirements may be updated to reflect regional regulations.
Roblox Plus Bundles: Plus 500 vs 1000 vs 2000
Roblox Plus offers three optional bundles for players who want both discounts and monthly Robux:
| Bundle | Monthly contents | Best for |
|---|---|---|
| Plus 500 | 500 Robux + Plus subscription | Small monthly spenders, discount-focused |
| Plus 1000 | 1,000 Robux + Plus subscription | Moderate spend, and needs to publish avatar items |
| Plus 2000 | 2,000 Robux + Plus subscription | High spend, maximizing discount value |
How to choose: bundle Robux is delivered recurring monthly (official), similar to Premium's stipend mechanic. If you spend a set amount of Robux each month, a bundle is simpler than buying Plus and Robux separately.
Creators who publish or keep avatar items on sale: Roblox requires Plus or Premium 1000/2200, so Plus 500 doesn't satisfy that requirement.
Roblox Plus Subscription Pricing (USD, verified September 26, 2026)
| Plan | Monthly | Robux included | Listed original price |
|---|---|---|---|
| Roblox Plus (benefits only) | $4.99 | — | — |
| Plus 500 | $8.99 | 500 | $9.98 |
| Plus 1000 | $12.99 | 1,000 | $14.98 |
| Plus 2000 | $21.99 | 2,000 | $24.98 |
How to read this: with Plus 1000 you pay $12.99 and get 1,000 Robux — compared with buying 1,000 Robux alone for $9.99, an extra $3 buys the entire Plus benefits package (10%→20% spending discount, free private servers, free Robux transfers). If you buy Robux monthly and spend inside games, a bundle usually beats buying Robux and Plus separately.
⚠️ Prices are a September 26, 2026 snapshot of the official page (USD). Roblox's subscription terms allow fee changes with reasonable notice, and some regions may be billed in local currency.

Roblox Buying Strategy by Player Type
| Player type | Best choice | Why |
|---|---|---|
| Just wants more Robux | Buy through website/computer/gift cards | Up to 25% more, no subscription needed |
| Buys in-game items or avatars often | Subscribe to Roblox Plus | 10%→20% off spending, plus free Robux transfers |
| Needs a fixed amount monthly | Plus bundle (500/1000/2000) | Discounts plus recurring Robux |
| Sells avatar items | Plus (any tier) or Premium 1000/2200 | Official requirement |
| Existing Premium subscriber | Keep it — don't cancel | Cancelling is irreversible |
One calculation people get wrong
Don't compare "Plus 10%" against "website +25%" — they apply to different money:
- The website bonus applies to buying Robux
- The Plus discount applies to spending Robux on in-game items
The genuinely optimal path uses both: buy Robux through official web channels (+25%), then spend it with a Plus subscription (10–20% off).
Robux Pricing FAQ
Q: Can I still buy Roblox Premium?
No. Roblox states Premium is no longer available for purchase as of April 30, 2026. Existing subscribers may retain it, but cancelling means you cannot resubscribe.
Q: Does Premium still give the 10% bonus on Robux purchases?
No. Roblox states the 10% bonus ended May 30, 2026, and the Premium logo was removed. The monthly Robux stipend, trading and reselling benefits remain.
Q: Is Roblox Plus worth it?
Depends on how you spend Robux. If you regularly buy in-game items or avatars, the 10% (20% from month three) discount is direct value. If you just want more Robux, buying through official web channels (+25%) is better and requires no subscription.
Q: How much monthly Robux does Roblox Plus include?
The subscription itself includes no monthly stipend. For monthly Robux, choose a bundle: Plus 500, Plus 1000 or Plus 2000, delivering 500, 1,000 or 2,000 Robux per month respectively.
Q: Do Plus discounts apply to everything?
No. Roblox explicitly excludes items over 1,000,000 Robux, resold items, ads credit, UGC publishing fees and group fees.
