What Roblox Premium includes

Roblox Premium is a paid membership that gives you a monthly allowance of Robux (the in-game currency), a boost to how much you earn when you create games, and access to exclusive items in the catalog. You also get a monthly stipend that lands in your account automatically, which you can spend on anything in the Roblox marketplace.

The membership comes in three tiers: Premium ($4.99 a month), Premium Plus ($9.99 a month), and Premium Max ($19.99 a month). Each tier increases your monthly Robux stipend and your creator earnings multiplier. There is no annual discount — you pay month to month, and you can cancel anytime.

Beyond the Robux, Premium members also see fewer ads while playing games and get early access to some new features before they roll out to all players. You also unlock the ability to trade limited items with other players and sell items you create in the catalog, which non-Premium players cannot do.

Key Takeaways

  • Roblox Premium gives you a monthly Robux stipend that ranges from 450 Robux at the lowest tier to 4,500 at the highest, plus a multiplier on earnings if you create games.
  • The three tiers cost $4.99, $9.99, and $19.99 per month with no annual option, and you can cancel your membership at any time without penalty.
  • Premium membership unlocks the ability to trade limited items and sell your own creations in the catalog, which free players cannot do.
  • You will see fewer ads in games and get early access to new features, though the core gameplay experience is the same whether you pay or not.

Monthly Robux amounts by tier

The Robux stipend is the main reason most players buy Premium. At the lowest tier, you get 450 Robux per month. Premium Plus gives you 1,000 Robux, and Premium Max gives you 4,500 Robux. These amounts land in your account on the same day each month, and you can spend them when ready.

To put this in perspective: a single cosmetic item in most games costs between 50 and 500 Robux, so even the basic tier gives you enough to buy a few items each month. The higher tiers let you purchase more frequently or save up for expensive limited-edition items that cost thousands of Robux.

If you create games or items for the catalog, Premium also multiplies your earnings. Free players earn 25% of the Robux spent in their game; Premium members earn 35%. Premium Plus creators earn 40%, and Premium Max creators earn 50%. This matters only if you are actively building and monetizing games, but it can add up quickly if your game is popular.

Trading and selling your own creations

One of the biggest restrictions for free players is that they cannot trade limited items with other players or sell items they create. Premium membership removes both of these restrictions. If you own a limited-edition item that is no longer sold in the catalog, you can trade it to another Premium member. You can also list items you design in the catalog and earn Robux when other players buy them.

This opens up a secondary economy for Premium members. Some players spend their monthly stipend buying limited items, then trade them later when the price goes up. Others create clothing, accessories, or game passes and earn ongoing income from their designs. Neither of these paths is open to free players, regardless of how much Robux they spend.

Fewer ads and early feature access

Premium members see a reduced number of ads while playing games. The exact reduction varies by game, since developers control their own ad placement, but most players report noticeably fewer interruptions. This is a quality-of-life benefit rather than a gameplay advantage — you are not stronger or faster, just less interrupted.

You also get early access to new features and items before they roll out to the general player base. This is usually a matter of days or weeks, not months, so it is more of a novelty than a major advantage. The benefit is most noticeable if you follow Roblox news closely and want to try new things first.

Whether Premium is worth the cost

The value of Premium depends entirely on how much you play and whether you want to spend Robux regularly. If you play a few hours a week and do not care about cosmetics, the free version is perfectly functional. You can still play every game, join every experience, and enjoy the core gameplay without paying anything.

Premium makes sense if you spend money on Robux anyway. The monthly stipend effectively gives you free Robux each month, so if you were planning to buy 450 Robux anyway, the $4.99 tier pays for itself. If you create games or items for sale, the earnings multiplier can offset the cost within a few months if your creations are popular.

The higher tiers (Premium Plus and Premium Max) are harder to justify unless you are a heavy spender or a serious creator. The jump from 450 to 1,000 Robux is meaningful, but the jump from 1,000 to 4,500 is only worth it if you are buying cosmetics constantly or running a successful game studio.

How to cancel your membership

You can cancel Premium at any time through your account settings. On the web, go to your account page, find the membership section, and click "Cancel Membership." On mobile, open the app, go to your profile, tap the Premium badge, and select the cancel option. Your membership will remain active through the end of the current billing cycle, and you will not be charged again.

If you cancel and then want to rejoin later, you can reactivate Premium the same way you signed up. There is no penalty for canceling and restarting, so you can pause your membership during months when you are not playing as much.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do I lose my Robux if I cancel Premium?

No. Any Robux you have in your account — whether from the monthly stipend or from purchases — stays with you after you cancel. You just stop receiving the monthly allowance and lose access to trading and selling items.

Can I gift Premium to someone else?

Roblox does not currently offer Premium gift cards or the ability to gift a membership directly. You can only purchase Premium for your own account. However, you can gift Robux to another player, which they can use to buy cosmetics or game passes.

What happens to items I listed for sale if I cancel Premium?

If you cancel Premium, your active listings remain live and you can still earn Robux from sales. However, you will not be able to create new listings or trade items until you rejoin Premium. Any Robux you earned from sales stays in your account.

Is there a difference between Robux from Premium and Robux I buy?

No. Once the Robux lands in your account, it is identical whether it came from your monthly stipend or from a purchase. You can spend it the same way and on the same items.

Do I need Premium to play with friends?

No. Free players can join any game, play with Premium members, and participate in the same experiences. Premium only unlocks cosmetics, trading, and selling — it does not gate core gameplay or social features.
