Robux Tax Calculator — Marketplace Fee & DevEx Cash-Out

Calculate the 30% Roblox marketplace fee on item sales and convert Earned Robux to USD at the current DevEx cash-out rate.

Marketplace Sale — Developer Cut

You Earn (After 30% Marketplace Fee)
700 Robux
Roblox keeps 300 Robux (30% marketplace fee)

DevEx Cash-Out — Robux to USD

Estimated Cash-Out Value
$190 USD
Applies to Earned Robux accrued on or after September 5, 2025 — the default rate for most creators today.

Cashout priority: eligible US 18+ Rate Robux is cashed out first, then remaining balance follows the Standard/New Rate; any pre-September-2025 Old Rate Robux must be fully cashed out before New Rate Robux can be exchanged.

Developer payout = Sale Price × 70% (Roblox keeps a 30% marketplace fee on Developer Product and avatar item sales). DevEx cash-out value = Earned Robux Balance × selected rate per Robux. Roblox has adjusted its DevEx rates and minimum cash-out threshold before and may do so again — treat these figures as a planning estimate and always verify the current rate, eligibility rules, and minimum threshold at roblox.com before submitting a real cash-out request.

Worked Examples

Marketplace Sale — 1,000 Robux Item

Listed Sale Price
1,000 Robux
700 Robux to developer

1,000 × 70% (100% − 30% marketplace fee) = 700 Robux earned; Roblox keeps 300 Robux as its marketplace fee.

Marketplace Sale — 250 Robux Item

Listed Sale Price
250 Robux
175 Robux to developer

250 × 70% = 175 Robux earned; Roblox keeps 75 Robux.

DevEx Cash-Out at Standard Rate

Earned Robux Balance
50,000
Rate Tier
Standard/New Rate ($0.0038)
$190.00 USD

50,000 × $0.0038 = $190.00. Balance is above the 30,000 Robux minimum, so it's eligible for cash-out.

DevEx Cash-Out Below the Minimum Threshold

Earned Robux Balance
20,000
Rate Tier
Standard/New Rate ($0.0038)
$76.00 USD (not eligible yet)

20,000 × $0.0038 = $76.00, but the balance is below the 30,000 Robux minimum required to submit a DevEx cash-out request — the creator must earn at least 10,000 more Robux first.

DevEx Cash-Out at US 18+ Rate

Earned Robux Balance
100,000
Rate Tier
US 18+ Rate ($0.0054)
$540.00 USD

100,000 × $0.0054 = $540.00. This higher rate applies only to eligible in-game spend by US players 18+, effective June 8, 2026 — verify eligibility before assuming this rate applies to your full balance.

Frequently Asked Questions

Why does Roblox take 30% of my item sale?
Roblox charges a marketplace fee on Developer Product and avatar item sales the same way an app store charges a platform fee — it covers hosting, payment processing, moderation, and the marketplace infrastructure itself. You keep 70% of the listed Robux price as Earned Robux; the remaining 30% is Roblox's cut. This fee applies at the point of sale, before any DevEx cash-out conversion.
Why has the DevEx rate changed, and which rate applies to me?
Roblox has adjusted its Developer Exchange rate more than once as the platform's economy and player base have grown. Robux earned before September 5, 2025 10am PT convert at the Old Rate ($0.0035), Robux earned on or after that date convert at the Standard/New Rate ($0.0038), and eligible in-game spend by US players 18 and older converts at a higher US 18+ Rate ($0.0054) effective June 8, 2026. Because Roblox has changed this before, treat any rate you see — including the ones in this calculator — as a planning estimate and confirm the live rate on roblox.com before actually cashing out.
What order does Robux cash out in if I have a mix of rate tiers?
Eligible US 18+ Rate Robux cashes out first, then any remaining balance follows the Standard/New Rate. If you still have Old Rate Robux sitting in your balance from before September 5, 2025, that portion must be fully cashed out before New Rate Robux becomes available to exchange. This calculator lets you check each tier individually, but your actual payout order follows this priority.
What is the minimum Robux balance needed to cash out through DevEx?
You need an Earned Robux balance of at least 30,000 to submit a Developer Exchange cash-out request. Robux balances below that threshold aren't eligible yet, even though they still have a calculable USD value — this calculator flags that shortfall so you know how much more you need to earn.
Does the marketplace fee apply to Robux I buy for myself, or only to sales?
The 30% fee applies specifically to Developer Product and avatar item sales made by a creator to other users — it's how Roblox takes its cut of the marketplace. It does not apply to Robux you purchase directly from Roblox for your own spending, which you receive at face value.
