Introduction

Creators generally earn 70% of anything they sell in Robux in their own game, and Roblox keeps the other 30%.1 Players call that cut the Roblox tax. Our Roblox Tax Calculator helps you figure out how much Robux you will receive after the cut, or how much you need to charge to hit a specific earnings goal.

Simply enter a Robux amount and choose a mode. Select I'm setting a price to see how much you will pocket from a sale, or select I want to receive to find out the price you need to set so you earn the amount you want. This tool makes it quick and easy to plan your Roblox trades and sales without doing the math yourself.

How to Use Our Roblox Tax Calculator

Enter your Robux amount and choose a mode to quickly find out how much Robux you'll receive after Roblox's 30% cut, or how much you need to charge to receive a specific amount.

Robux Amount: Type in the number of Robux you want to calculate. This is either the listing price or the amount you want to end up with, depending on the mode you pick.

Mode buttons: Select "I'm setting a price" to find out how much Robux you will receive after the 30% cut is taken from your entered amount. Select "I want to receive" to find out the price you need to set so that you receive your entered amount after the cut.

What Is the Roblox Tax?

When players buy a pass in your game, you receive 70% of the Robux spent and the remaining 30% is Roblox's Marketplace Fee.2 Players call this cut the Roblox tax. So if you sell a pass for 100 Robux, you receive 70 Robux. Roblox keeps the other 30 Robux.

Clothing and other avatar items sold in the Marketplace work differently. Their creator receives 30% at the item type's price floor, rising to 70% for items priced six or more times above it.3 When your avatar item sells inside someone else's game, you receive 30% and the game's owner receives 40%.3 Marketplace earnings are also held for 30 days before they reach you.3

How the Roblox Tax Calculator Works

This calculator has two modes:

  • I'm setting a price: Enter the price of your pass or item, and the calculator shows how much Robux you will receive after Roblox takes its 30% fee.
  • I want to receive: Enter the amount of Robux you want to earn, and the calculator tells you what price you need to set so you end up with at least that amount after the cut.

Why Does Roblox Take 30%?

The share Roblox keeps pays for programs such as Creator Rewards, app store and payment processing fees, and platform hosting and support.1 The 70/30 split applies to what you sell for Robux in your own game, such as passes. Clothing sold in the Marketplace uses the price-based split described above. Developers who want to cash out their earnings can convert Robux into real money through the Developer Exchange program.

Quick Examples

  • You sell an item for 100 Robux → You get 70 Robux (30 Robux goes to Roblox).
  • You want to earn 100 Robux → You need to price your item at about 143 Robux.
  • You sell an item for 1,000 Robux → You get 700 Robux.

Tips for Roblox Sellers

Always factor in the 30% tax before you set your price. Many new sellers forget about the fee and end up earning less than they expected. If you have a specific Robux goal in mind, use the I want to receive mode to figure out exactly what price to set. This way, you won't lose money by underpricing your items.


Formulas used

\text{Tax} = \text{Listed Price} - \lfloor \text{Listed Price} \times \frac{7}{10} \rfloor
Amount Received (I'm setting a price) 2
\text{Received} = \lfloor \text{Listed Price} \times 70\% \rfloor
Required Listing Price (I want to receive)
\text{Listed Price} = \lceil \text{Desired Amount} \times \frac{10}{7} \rceil

What is the formula to calculate price before tax?

Divide the amount you want to earn by 0.7. For example, if you want 200 Robux, 200 ÷ 0.7 = 285.71, and prices are whole Robux, so round up and set the price at 286 Robux.
