Calculate Robux to USD conversions, DevEx eligibility, purchase rates, and Premium payouts for Roblox developers and creators.
Minimum 30,000 Robux required for DevEx
Roblox uses Robux (R$) as its virtual currency, which players can purchase with real money or earn through game development. The platform offers multiple ways to monetize games, including game passes, developer products, and Premium payouts. Understanding the conversion rates and earning potential is crucial for developers looking to turn their creations into revenue.
The Developer Exchange (DevEx) program allows eligible developers to convert earned Robux back into real currency. To qualify, developers must be at least 13 years old, have a minimum of 30,000 earned Robux in their account, be a member of the Roblox Premium subscription, and have a verified email address.
| Type | Rate | Direction | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| DevEx Rate | 1 R$ = $0.0035 | Robux → USD | For earned Robux only |
| Purchase Rate | $1 = ~80 R$ | USD → Robux | Varies by package size |
| Premium Payouts | 1 R$ = $0.0025 | Robux → USD | From Premium subscribers |
| Marketplace Fee | 30% commission | N/A | On all transactions |
Successful Roblox developers use multiple revenue streams. Game passes offer permanent benefits to players, while developer products provide consumable items that can be purchased repeatedly. Premium payouts reward you based on how much time Premium subscribers spend in your game, creating passive income alongside direct purchases.
To maximize DevEx earnings, focus on creating engaging experiences that encourage repeat visits and purchases. The 30,000 Robux minimum threshold equals approximately $105 USD. Many successful developers wait to accumulate larger amounts before cashing out to reduce transaction frequency and administrative overhead.
Roblox Premium membership provides developers with a higher revenue share and access to Premium payouts. Premium subscribers also receive a monthly Robux stipend and can trade limited items, making it valuable for both players and developers. The Premium payout system rewards quality content that keeps subscribers engaged.
Roblox takes a 30% marketplace fee on all transactions, meaning you receive 70% of the Robux from sales. This fee applies to game passes, developer products, and clothing sales. Factor this into your pricing strategy to ensure profitability while remaining competitive with similar games.
A developer has earned 100,000 Robux from game passes and developer products, plus 25,000 Robux from Premium payouts over three months.
Game Sales Robux: 100,000 R$
DevEx Value: 100,000 × $0.0035 = $350.00
Premium Payouts: 25,000 R$
Premium Value: 25,000 × $0.0025 = $62.50
Total Earnings: $412.50
This represents earnings after Roblox's 30% marketplace fee has already been deducted from the original sales.
