Robux — the virtual currency used on Roblox — cannot be refunded once purchased and have no real-world cash value, meaning you cannot exchange them back for money.

The clause defines the legal and economic status of Robux as a restricted-use digital asset rather than a financial instrument, which establishes Roblox's non-obligation to maintain exchange value or provide redemption pathways for the general user base.
The updated Terms of Use, effective April 30, 2026, restructure how Roblox identifies itself and organizes its governing policies. The agreement now explicitly names Roblox subsidiaries operating in multiple jurisdictions (Japan, Canada, UK, India, Korea, Australia, Netherlands) throughout the terms. New sections addressing advertising integrations and content moderation have been added to the table of contents, suggesting expanded disclosure around ad policies and moderation procedures. According to the change summary, Roblox is providing additional clarity on who can see personalized versus non-personalized ads and clarifying API terms applicable to developers. The full operational implications of these changes require review of the complete updated policy document.
View change record →Roblox has restructured its Terms of Use into discrete sections covering user accounts, virtual currency (Robux), payments, intellectual property, online safety, third-party integrations, and dispute resolution. The updated document now explicitly organizes obligations by functional area, making specific rights and requirements easier to locate. The document introduces formal sections on arbitration agreements and class action waivers, meaning disputes will be governed by these procedures as stated in the updated terms.
View change record →The updated terms reorganize and clarify existing policies rather than imposing new restrictions. Roblox consolidated AI-related terms from supplemental documents into the main Terms of Use, added clarifying language about how creator content may be used in marketing and advertising, expanded disclosures about ad personalization and targeting practices, and provided additional detail on moderation procedures and group/community owner responsibilities. Practically, users and creators will find AI feature terms more prominently disclosed in the main agreement rather than in supplemental annexes, and the platform provides expanded transparency around advertiser eligibility and how ads are targeted based on personalization preferences.
View change record →Because Robux have no cash value and are non-refundable, users who purchase Robux and subsequently lose account access or decide to stop using the platform will not recover the money they spent.

"Robux are not a substitute for real currency, do not earn interest, and have no equivalent value in real currency. Except as otherwise outlined in the DevEx Terms with respect to Creators who have applied and been accepted to the DevEx Program, Robux cannot be redeemed for any real currency, and Roblox is not obligated to exchange a User's Robux for anything else of value.— Excerpt from Roblox's Roblox Terms of Use
The non-refundable, no-cash-value structure of Robux may implicate state stored value and gift card laws, unclaimed property regulations, and CFPB prepaid account rules; legal teams should assess whether Robux balances require escrow, dormancy disclosures, or escheatment to state authorities.
