Question 1

How much does a Roblox game make per visit?

Accepted Answer

Community-reported figures vary enormously by game type: obbies and hangouts typically earn 0.1–0.4 Robux per visit, typical games 0.6–1.2, and aggressively monetized simulators and tycoons 2–6 R$/visit. A million monthly visits therefore means roughly 100,000–6,000,000 earned Robux — $380 to $22,800 at the standard DevEx rate.

Question 2

Where does Roblox game revenue come from?

Accepted Answer

Most of it (~80–90%) comes from game passes and developer products, where the creator keeps 70% and Roblox takes 30%. Creator Rewards adds 5 Robux per day for each qualifying "Active Spender" — a player who spent at least $9.99 in the past 60 days, plays your game 10+ minutes, and has it among their first three games that day. Rewarded video ads and Roblox Plus bonuses are smaller extras.

Question 3

How do I turn Robux into real money?

Accepted Answer

Through the Developer Exchange (DevEx): the standard rate is $0.0038 per earned Robux with a 30,000 Robux minimum ($114). A US 18+ rate of $0.0054 launched in June 2026 for spend from age-verified US adult players. Requirements: age 13+, verified email, tax forms and community-standards compliance. Only earned Robux qualify — purchased Robux never do.

Question 4

Did Creator Rewards replace Premium Payouts?

Accepted Answer

Yes — in July 2025 the old engagement-time-based Premium Payouts were replaced by Creator Rewards, which pays a flat 5 R$ per qualifying Active Spender per day. Audience Expansion Rewards additionally pays 35% of a new player’s first-60-day spend (up to $100) when you brought that player yourself via a share link.

Question 5

How many players do I need to make a living?

Accepted Answer

Order of magnitude: $2,000/month requires about 530,000 earned Robux monthly. At a typical game’s 0.8 R$/visit that is ~650,000 visits per month — roughly 10,000 daily players. With simulator-level monetization the same income takes ~200,000 visits. Most Roblox games never get there, but the top end earns millions per year.

Question 6

How reliable is this estimate?

Accepted Answer

The DevEx rates, the 70/30 split and Creator Rewards mechanics are verified against Roblox’s official documentation (dated in the calculator). The R$/visit benchmarks and purchase conversion rates are community-reported estimates that vary several-fold with game quality, audience age and geography. Use this for order-of-magnitude planning, not as your only business case.
