✓ VideoGamer summary
  • Roblox Premium gives monthly Robux, trading privileges, and access to exclusive items and discounts not available to free users.
  • There are three Roblox Premium tiers in the US: Premium 450 ($4.99), Premium 1000 ($9.99), and Premium 2200 ($19.99) per month.
  • You can cancel Roblox Premium from account settings or through app stores if you subscribed via mobile.
  • Premium includes engagement-based payouts to creators and benefits when Premium users engage with your game.
  • Whether Roblox Premium is worth it depends on how much you use the Roblox economy: trading, creation, and avatar customization.

Roblox Premium is Roblox’s subscription service that adds perks beyond what the free version offers. It gives you monthly Robux, trading of limited items, the ability to sell avatar gear and game passes, and bonuses when buying Robux. If you’re active in avatar customisation, item trading, or game creation, then Roblox Premium benefits may matter to you.

If you’re wondering what Roblox Premium does, how much the Premium subscriptions cost, how it compares to the free experience, how to cancel your Premium membership, or whether it’s worth upgrading, we’ve got you covered. 

What is Roblox Premium?

Roblox Premium is a paid membership that replaces the old Builders Club. You get a monthly Robux stipend based on your tier. A subscription unlocks Roblox Premium trading of limited items, selling items like avatar clothes or gear, game passes, and gaining experience perks reserved for Premium users. 

Premium also gives a 10% bonus on Robux purchases. You earn more Robux per dollar when buying via Roblox itself (rather than through certain app stores) in many cases.

If you’re considering a Roblox Premium subscription, it’s worth understanding how much each subscription tier costs and how much Robux you’ll get per month based on the tier.

The Roblox Premium price depends on which tier you choose:

TierRobux per MonthPrice (US)
Premium 450450 Robux$4.99/month 
Premium 10001,000 Robux$9.99/month 
Premium 22002,200 Robux$19.99/month

All three Roblox Premium tiers give the same benefits, except for the amount of Robux given monthly. 

Popular Roblox Premium levels & game modes

While there are tons of free Roblox games to choose from, some of the best games (like Deepwoken) require paid access. Roblox Premium membership can add noticeable value to certain modes and game types. For example, added perks that can give you the upper hand in a game and unique skins.

Although Roblox doesn’t release publicly available data showing subscriber numbers for each Premium tier, the Premium 2200 subscription offers the best value for money, where Robux is concerned.

Roblox games with paid access content, like exclusive items, avatar gear, and perks (like we see in many of the lobby games), will benefit users with a Roblox Premium subscription. 

How does Roblox Premium compare to the free experience?

Roblox Premium benefits certainly outweigh those compared to what you get without a Premium subscription. If you’re playing Roblox on a PC, you’d have to spend $19.99 in exchange for 2,000 Robux. Compare that to Roblox Premium, where you get 2,200 Robux (plus a bunch of extra perks) on the Premium 2200 tier, and the figures speak for themselves.

How to cancel Roblox Premium

If you signed up for Premium and now want to cancel your Roblox Premium subscription, here’s how to do it:

  1. Log in to your Roblox account with a Premium membership.
  2. Go to Settings (gear icon) > Subscriptions.
  3. Select your active Premium subscription. Click “Cancel Renewal” and follow the prompts.
  4. If you subscribed via iOS or Android app store, you’ll need to cancel via the relevant store (e.g. App Store or Google Play).

You will retain all Premium benefits until the end of the current billing period. Roblox does not refund partial months.

Is Roblox Premium worth it?

Deciding if Roblox Premium is worth it really depends on the type of Roblox user you are and what you do in Roblox. 

Before you buy Roblox Premium, consider some of these factors:

  • If you purchase Robux often or want exclusive avatar gear and limited items, Premium saves you money over time.
  • If you create content or want to sell items, game passes, or clothing, Premium gives you the platform to earn and sell.
  • If you mostly play free games, don’t invest in the avatar items, or don’t use trading, the benefits may not justify the cost.

I believe that for players who regularly use Roblox’s marketplace, trade limited items, or create UGC content, Roblox Premium offers real value. For more casual players, the free version suffices; it still gives you the option to purchase Robux (at a higher cost compared to Roblox Premium), but doesn’t tie you into a subscription that you might otherwise forget to cancel.
