Robux is the virtual currency that you use in Roblox to buy outfits, styles, in-game items, game passes, and more. If you're new to the platform (or at least new to buying something on the platform), we are here to help you figure out how to first buy Robux.
First, make sure that what you're purchasing is valid, and not a scam, as it can happen. For example, Mugen is a game that is still set to release and it will be F2P. However, others have made copies of the game and sell early access to it. This is just a scam, so always check where you are giving your money. With that said, we will show you official methods to purchase Robux like the Roblox website, in-app purchases, gift cards, and Premium subscriptions across all devices.
What Are the Official Ways to Buy Robux in 2025?
There are different ways in which you can purchase Robux in 2025. Here are the official methods you can use:
- Direct purchase through the Roblox website
- In-app purchases
- In-app mobile purchases
- Console purchases (Xbox / PlayStation)
- Roblox Gift Cards
- Premium monthly subscription
You get additional Robux when using a gift card or purchasing through the web or a computer. There is also an option to get monthly Robux using Roblox Premium (plus some extra) if you are a regular user. Keep in mind that due to regional and platform pricing, you might see different prices for things.
How Do You Buy Robux on the Roblox Website?
Since the website is easily accessible, you can purchase Roblox from there at any time. To do that, you need to:
- Log in to your Roblox account
- Go to the Robux page (indicated by the golden Robux icon)
- Select the package you want to buy
- Choose your payment method
- Complete the purchase
There are different types of payment methods that you can use depending on what you prefer. The best part about buying Robux from the official website is that you get 25% more Robux on every purchase. Plus, since it is the official website, the transaction is secure.
You can also check your transaction history by clicking the Robux icon and selecting 'My Transactions'. This will give you a complete history of all your transactions up to a year.
What Payment Methods Can You Use on the Roblox Website?
When purchasing through the Roblox website, you can use the following payment methods:
- Credit/debit cards
- PayPal
- Prepaid cards
- Roblox gift cards
- Regional payment methods
Some areas may have certain restricted payment methods, so depending on where you live, you will have to see which method is available. When it comes to security, credit/debit cards, PayPal, and gift cards are the best options.
How Do You Purchase Robux on Mobile?
You can also purchase Robux on your mobile device. Depending on your OS (iOS or Android), you might see different pricing and packages. For iOS, there are fewer packages available, and the amount of Robux you get will be lower. This is due to Apple's store fee. You can use Apple Pay or Apple ID to purchase Robux.
On the other hand, Android has the same pricing and packages as the web version. Plus, you can use more payment options such as Google Pay, credit cards, or even local payment methods, depending on your location.
In case you cannot buy Robux, clear Roblox cache, restart your mobile device, and if it's still not working, contact Roblox support. Usually, restarting the app does work to fix any problems.
How to Buy Robux on Console?
To buy Robux on consoles, open the Roblox app and look for the golden Robux icon. From here, select the amount of Robux you want to get and use the appropriate payment method on your console (PlayStation Store or Microsoft Store).
Depending on your platform and region, the pricing may differ for Robux. This is due to regional pricing and how tax works in different areas globally. You can also link your Roblox account by going to the "Linked Accounts" section on PlayStation or Xbox.
How to Use Roblox Gift Cards for Robux?
Gift cards are another way to get Robux in your account. You can buy them from trusted sources like Amazon or directly from Roblox. You can also get them from your trusted local stores, depending on where you live.
Once you have the card, you can redeem it by entering the details in the redeem Roblox card section when purchasing Robux. Gift cards usually include bonus virtual items like UCGs that you can also claim. You can also buy a physical Roblox gift card. While the digital version is more convenient, gifting someone the physical version has its charm.
To see your balance, log into your account, go to the Gift Card redemption page under 'Redeem', and check your available balance.
Is Roblox Premium Worth It?
Roblox Premium is a great way to get monthly Robux and to get additional value on every purchase. There are three tiers of Roblox Premium:
- Premium 450 ($4.99)
- Premium 1000 ($9.99)
- Premium 2200 ($19.99)
All charges are monthly, and you will get monthly Robux depending on the tier you purchase. Plus, some experiences like Combat Warriors offer premium-only perks where you can AFK to get rewards.
This will also allow you to get up to 35% more value on every Robux purchase, along with giving you the option to trade items with other players. If you play Roblox regularly, it is worth getting Premium for its value.
How Can You Avoid Scams When Buying Robux?
Unfortunately, scams are extremely common when it comes to buying Robux. There are countless websites or YouTube videos where they claim that you'll get Free Robux or discounts. Make sure to check if this is a valid source (like a game creator doing a giveaway).
Some websites also try to get your account details by having you "verify" your account and giving them your details. Roblox support will never ask for your account details, so do not fall for phishing scams.
In case your Roblox account has been scammed, contact Roblox support immediately and let them know about your problem. Tell them everything in detail and wait for their response. If you see a scam on the Roblox Web Player or application, you can use the "Report Abuse" button to submit a report.
