In January, we took an extensive look at the games and places that were the most financially successful on ROBLOX. Whether it’s through adding gear to a game, taking advantage of Game Passes or just racking up series visits, there are a lot of opportunities to rake in serious cash. We decided to dig back into the data — this time for April — to see which places are most effectively earning money on a per-visit basis. We also take this opportunity to compare numbers from January with the latest stats to analyze the similarities and differences.

April 15th can be a rough day–that’s the last day for millions of Americans to scrounge up a heap of documents from the past year and file their (ugh) taxes. With that dreadful day looming on the horizon, we’re declaring a tax holiday this weekend to spread a little financial relief! Starting this Friday, we’re cutting marketplace fees in half, meaning all transactions will be subject to only a 15% fee (as opposed to our normal 30%). What does this mean for users?

A few things. If you’re particularly active in the ROBLOX economy, then this weekend would be an optimal time to sell and/or trade items of all sorts and sizes. Limited items are typically quite costly, so this could save you some big time Robux if you’re looking to sell. The cut will also apply to group store sales, game pass sales, and sales of all types of clothing. (Currency transactions, as always, are not subject to a marketplace fee.) You may be able to trade more effectively, as any amount of Robux added to incentivize any given trade will be taxed at half the usual rate.

Today, we’re kicking off a beta test for yet another economy feature: the ability to purchase and trade multiple copies of the same limited item.

ROBLOX already features a robust trading system where Builders Club members can exchange goods and barter for limited items and weapons, but actual Robux have never fit into the equation. Starting today, we’re enhancing the system by allowing you to add Robux to trades. This new feature will allow users to make more equitable trades, while simultaneously setting the ground work for some upcoming innovations.

The fundamentals of our currency exchange system are modeled after real-world trade systems–much like in real life, the earlier you act on information, the better off you’ll be. But we understand that joining the ever-shifting currency can be daunting–it’s a power-user feature with a pretty steep learning curve–but the rewards can be huge. In this article, we’re going to take an in-depth look at our currency exchange system, teach you how it works, and offer up some tips on how to leverage it. Let’s dive in. 

The Basics

Here. We. Go.

If you’ve been keeping up with our blog, you know that last week we reached out to some of the wealthiest users on ROBLOX to see if they would share some of their secrets to earning boatloads of Robux. Though the users who shared their collective knowledge were greatly appreciated, we also promised that we’d feature advice from the top three richest users this week. Here they are, with a ton of helpful advice. We don’t want to give away which of the three is richest (we feel that’s a little invasive), so keep in mind these are in no particular order.
