Roblox Offers Up to 25% More Robux for Direct Purchases Outside App Stores

The company incentivizes users to buy Robux through its website or gift cards, bypassing app store fees.

Roblox now provides up to 25% more Robux for purchases made via its website, gift cards, or on computers instead of through app stores or consoles.
The change, announced on Roblox's developer forum, is a permanent update and not a limited-time holiday promotion.
Users who purchase $9.99 worth of Robux using eligible methods will now receive 1,000 Robux instead of the previous 800 Robux.
The move is seen as a way for Roblox to reduce reliance on app stores, which take significant fees from in-app purchases, reportedly up to 23.3% of each dollar spent.
This adjustment reflects broader industry tensions over app store fees, following similar actions by other companies like Epic Games and YouTube.
