What is Roblox Tax?

"Everything you need to know about the Roblox 30% marketplace fee and how it affects your Robux earnings."

If you've ever sold a Gamepass or a Shirt on Roblox, you’ve probably noticed that you don’t receive the full amount of Robux. This is because of the Roblox Marketplace Fee, commonly known as "Roblox Tax."

How much is the Roblox Tax?

Currently, Roblox takes a 30% cut of all sales made through the marketplace. This means that as a creator, you receive 70% of the total price. For example, if you sell an item for 100 Robux, you will receive 70 Robux, and Roblox keeps 30 Robux.

Why does Roblox have a tax?

Roblox uses this fee to maintain the platform's infrastructure. This includes hosting servers, providing 24/7 moderation, and developing the engine that runs the games. Additionally, the tax helps control the "Robux inflation" by removing currency from the ecosystem.
