Introduction

In Pls Donate, you can raise Robux or donate Robux to other players. Donations are Robux transfers, and a Roblox Plus subscription is required to donate Robux.1 But you don't keep all of it. When a transfer completes in a game, the game earns 10% of the Robux sent and the recipient receives the remaining 90%.2 So if someone donates 500 Robux, you get 450.

This Pls Donate calculator handles the calculation. It works two ways:

  • Forward: Type in a donation amount and see how much Robux you actually receive after tax.
  • Reverse: Type in how much Robux you want to keep, and it tells you how much a donor needs to send.

You can also change the tax rate if you need to. The tool shows a step-by-step breakdown, a chart of where the Robux goes, and a quick table for common donation amounts. It even warns you when a donation is too small to pay out anything at all. If you sell other items or shirts on the platform, our general Roblox tax calculator covers those sales too.

How to use our Pls Donate Calculator

Pick a mode, choose your Roblox tax rate, and type a Robux amount. The calculator shows the share taken, the Robux you receive, and the donation you should ask for, plus a step-by-step solution and a chart.

Mode tabs: Press Forward to find out how much Robux you get from a donation. Press Reverse to find the donation a donor must send so you keep the amount you want.

Tax Rate: Leave this on Robux Transfer (10%) for Pls Donate donations. Pick Custom Tax Rate if you want to test a different fee, such as the 30% Marketplace Fee on a pass sold in your own game.

Custom Tax Rate (%): This box only shows when you choose Custom. Type any rate from 0 to 99, like 25 for a 25% cut.

Donation Amount / Desired Take-Home (R$): In Forward mode, type the Robux the donor sends, like 500. In Reverse mode, type the Robux you want to keep, like 300. Use whole numbers only.

Calculate and Reset: Results update as you type, but you can press Calculate to run it again. Press Reset to go back to the 10% transfer share and R$ 500.

What Is the Pls Donate Robux Tax?

Pls Donate is a Roblox game where players claim a booth, customize its text and receive Robux from other players.1 Donations are made as Robux transfers, which Roblox Plus subscribers can send straight to other users.3 Donating used to mean buying the other player's gamepass, but cross-game pass sales were disabled on May 30, 2026.4 When a Plus subscriber completes a transfer in a game, the game earns 10% of the Robux sent and the recipient receives the remaining 90%.2 Roblox itself does not take a fee from these transfers.2 That 10% is the "Pls Donate tax" this calculator works out.

How Much Robux Do You Actually Keep?

You keep 90% of every donation and the game keeps 10%. A 100 Robux transfer pays 90 Robux to the recipient and 10 Robux to the game.2 On a R$ 500 donation, you get R$ 450. The bigger the donation, the more you lose to the fee, but the split stays the same.

Whole Robux and Transfer Limits

Robux only come in whole numbers, so this calculator rounds your share down to a whole Robux. A R$ 15 donation works out to R$ 13.50, so the tool shows R$ 13. Each Robux transfer set up in a game must be between 10 and 500 Robux.2 In Robux Transfer mode the calculator flags any donation outside that range, and its quick table lists amounts inside it. Transfers are limited to 500 Robux a day and 1,000 a month, or 5,000 a day and 10,000 a month for users with 2-Step Verification who are in good standing.3

Asking for the Right Amount

If you want a set amount of Robux in your pocket, the donor has to send more than your goal. Divide your goal by 0.9 and round up. To take home R$ 300, ask for R$ 334. To take home R$ 450, ask for R$ 500. Many Pls Donate players ask for round amounts like 100 or 500 because they look nice at a booth, so just remember your real take-home will be 90% of that.

Other Things to Know

  • Accepting a donation: You get a notification that a transfer is pending, and once you select Accept the Robux are added to your balance instantly. For users under 16, a linked parent account must approve each transfer.3
  • Not for cashing out: Robux you receive as a transfer are not eligible for the DevEx program, so the Roblox DevEx calculator does not apply to them.3 You can only spend them on Roblox.3
  • Transfers are final: Once you send Robux, you cannot reverse or cancel the transfer, so only send Robux to people you know.3

Formulas used

Net multiplier from tax rate
m = \frac{100\% - r\%}{100\%}
Robux received (forward)
R = \left\lfloor D \times m \right\rfloor
Tax deducted
T = D - R
Effective keep rate
K = \frac{R}{D} \times 100\%
Donation needed for a take-home goal (reverse)
P = \left\lceil \frac{G}{m} \right\rceil
Minimum effective donation
D_{min} = \min \left\{ D \in \mathbb{Z}^{+} : \left\lfloor D \times m \right\rfloor \ge 1 \right\}

Frequently asked questions

Do I lose Robux when I donate to someone else?

No. As the donor, you send exactly the amount you choose. The game's 10% comes out of the receiver's side.

A 100 Robux transfer pays 90 Robux to the recipient and 10 Robux to the game.2

Why does Reverse mode round the price up?

Rounding down would leave you short of your goal.

To keep R$ 300 you need R$ 333.33. A R$ 333 donation only pays R$ 299. So the tool rounds up to R$ 334, which pays the full R$ 300.

When should I use the Custom Tax Rate option?

Pls Donate donations are Robux transfers, where the game earns 10% and the recipient receives 90%.2 Use Custom to test another rate, such as the 30% Marketplace Fee on a pass sold in your own game.5

It is handy if you want to see what a 0%, 10%, or 50% cut would look like, or if you are doing math for a different platform or a school project.

Does Roblox Plus or Premium lower the fee?

No. The 10% goes to the game, and Roblox itself does not take a fee from these transfers.2 You keep 90% of every donation.

A subscription only matters for the donor: sending Robux needs Roblox Plus, while receiving does not.3

Is a donation taxed twice?

No. A donation is a Robux transfer to your own account, and the game's 10% is taken once, when the transfer completes. The recipient receives the remaining 90%.2

Does the same 30% apply to shirts and t-shirts at my booth?

No. When an avatar item such as a shirt is bought inside someone else's game, its creator receives 30% and the game's owner receives 40%.6

So you keep far less from a shirt than from a Robux transfer. To model a shirt sale, set a Custom Tax Rate of 70.

How do I work out how many donations I need for a goal?

Use Forward mode first. Type the amount of one donation to see what it pays you.

Then divide your goal by that number. Example: if each R$ 100 donation pays you R$ 90, you need 12 donations to reach R$ 1,000 (11.1 rounded up).

Do I need to log in or give my Roblox username?

No. This is just a math tool. It never asks for your username, password, or account details.

Never give your login to any site that promises free or tax-free Robux. Those are scams.

Does the table and chart change when I pick a different tax rate?

Yes. The quick reference table, the pie chart, and the step-by-step steps all update the moment you change the rate or the amount.

Rows that pay out nothing are highlighted in yellow with a warning icon.
