Roblox Plus is Roblox’s subscription. It costs $4.99 USD a month and gives you a discount on things you buy with Robux, a free private server in games that sell them, free Robux transfers to other players, and access to trading and selling on Marketplace. From 19 November 2026 you can also buy it for three, six or twelve months at a time, and pay for it with a gift card.

Plus replaced Roblox Premium for new members when it launched on 30 April 2026, and quite a lot has changed since. This post sets out what Plus includes as of November 2026, what changes on 19 November, and what it means if you still have Premium.

What Roblox Plus includes

The main Roblox Plus benefits, as of November 2026.
BenefitWhat you get
Discount on purchases10% off in-game items, avatar items and more. From your third month in a row it goes up to 20%.
Private serversOne free private server per game in games that sell paid private servers.
Robux transfersSend Robux to another player with no fee. Only the sender needs Plus.
MarketplaceTrade and resell limited items, and publish and sell your own avatar items.
Profile extrasA Plus badge, avatar backgrounds, profile frames and app themes.

The discount

The discount applies when you spend Robux on passes and developer products inside games, on avatar items and on developer subscriptions. Roblox pays the discount itself, so the creator still earns their full share.

Private servers

At launch, Plus included as many paid private servers as you wanted. That changed on 24 September 2026. Now you get one free private server per game. If you had several free ones in the same game, you kept one, marked “Included with Roblox Plus” under Settings > Subscriptions, and the others expired. You can still buy more servers at the price the game’s creator set, and servers you paid for yourself were not affected. Games that already give out free private servers work the same as before.

Your free server is tied to your subscription. If you cancel, it expires at the end of the billing period you already paid for.

Robux transfers

Plus members can send Robux directly to another player, and Roblox takes no fee. The person receiving doesn’t need Plus. Since 2 June 2026, players aged 16 and over can send and receive without a parent’s approval in most regions. Younger players, and players in some regions up to 18, need a parent to approve each transfer. Robux you receive this way can’t be cashed out through DevEx.

If you have 2-Step Verification turned on and your account is in good standing, you can qualify for higher limits of 5,000 Robux a day and 10,000 Robux a month. A stranger asking you to “send Robux first” is a classic scam, Plus or not. Our guide to trading scams shows the tricks, and our account security guide explains how to turn on 2-Step Verification.

Profile extras

Over the summer Roblox added three ways for Plus members to stand out. App themes arrived on 29 July, with more than 10 colour themes under Settings > Device preferences in the app. Profile frames around your profile picture went live on the web on 2 September and on mobile from 8 September. Plus members also get an exclusive set of avatar backgrounds and, since 10 September, can make their own from a text prompt. Our post on avatar backgrounds explains how that works.

What changes on 19 November 2026

Until now Plus was a monthly subscription. From 19 November you can choose to pay for one month, three months, six months or one year. You can also redeem a gift card for three months, six months or one year of Plus. Roblox hasn’t published the prices of the longer plans in its announcement, so check what is offered to you in your own account.

  1. 1Log in to Roblox.
  2. 2Open the Subscribe page.
  3. 3Choose a billing period and check the price before you pay.

If you are under 18, ask a parent before you buy any subscription. Our gift card guide explains how to redeem a card and spend the credit.

Roblox has also announced bundles called Plus 500, Plus 1000 and Plus 2000. Each one is a Plus subscription with 500, 1,000 or 2,000 Robux every month, paid in one go. Check the Subscribe page to see whether they are offered to you.

Why some creators had free Plus until now

When Plus became one of the ways to publish games for players of all ages, Roblox paid for six months of Plus for about 100,000 existing creators. To qualify, a creator needed a game with 100 hours of playtime in the 30 days before 13 April 2026, and no major rule breaks. That free grant started on 19 May and ends on 19 November 2026.

If you were one of those creators and don’t continue with Plus, your games stay live. Roblox has extended the publishing fee waiver until 19 December 2026. After that, to publish a new game for the Kids and Select audiences you pay the one-time, refundable publishing fee of 1,000 Robux per game or meet another requirement, such as having Plus or Premium for two months in a row. Games only for players aged 16 and over can still use the normal publishing requirements.

What happened to Roblox Premium

Roblox stopped selling Premium to new members when Plus launched. If you already had Premium, you can keep it, but if you cancel, you can’t sign up for it again.

10% bonus on Robux you buyEnded on 30 May 2026
Premium logoRemoved on 30 May 2026
New sign-upsStopped when Plus launched on 30 April 2026

Premium still counts towards the publishing requirements, so a creator with Premium doesn’t need Plus as well.

Is Roblox Plus worth it?

That depends on how you play. Plus pays off fastest if you already spend Robux every month, because the 20% discount from month three adds up, or if you like playing with a set group of friends in private servers. If you mostly play free games and rarely buy anything, you probably won’t notice much difference. Remember that the discount only grows if you stay subscribed for months in a row.

If you want to put the discount to use without spending your own money, you can earn Robux on FarmRBX by completing offers and surveys, and withdraw them through a gamepass, as our guide to how withdrawals work shows.
