It's rare to see a virtual creation and gaming platform stand the test of time; developers often put minimal effort into supporting the platform, or users get hungry for more tools and resources, and the developers can't keep up with the supply and demand. However, this is not the case for Roblox. Roblox is a well-established metaverse for gamers, where your gaming projects are shared in real-time with other like-minded users. The platform is here to stay, so it is never too late to start with Roblox. However, to get ahead of the curve, you may opt into some of the luxurious resources Roblox has to offer, like cashing in on Robux, a premium currency used for purchasing cosmetics, in-game upgrades, games, and acquiring private servers, or perhaps you'd like to build a Roblox Credit stash for later use. After all, Roblox is a time sink worth every penny after you've sunk hours into the metaverse on your shiny new Chromebook, tablet, and phone.

Today's guide covers how to redeem a Roblox gift card so you can get started on earning those sweet Robux credits while also learning about the game's premium benefits if you opt into the membership program.

How to redeem a Roblox gift card

1. Open your mobile web browser and enter the URL http://www.roblox.com in your address bar.
2. Tap on Continue in browser to navigate to Roblox's main website.
3. On the next page, enter your Roblox login details to continue.

6. You'll be redirected to Roblox's gift cards page. Tap on Redeem, located at the very top of the page.
7. Fill in the empty Code field with your Roblox gift card's code, then tap on Redeem to finish. You can redeem Roblox Credit or Robux. If you are unsure what to redeem, we recommend adding Roblox Credit to open up the most options for your account (like a monthly subscription).

8. You'll receive a success message once you've redeemed your card. You can tap Use Credit if you want to spend immediately or close the page to maintain your balance for future purchases.

We've determined it is impossible to buy Robux with your Roblox gift card set as your payment method on the app. Essentially your linked Google account handles purchases done within apps on the Google Play Store. But you can redeem a Google Play Store gift card as a quick workaround.

Where to locate your credit balance

You can check your credit balance on (1) the Gift Card redemption page or (2) visiting the Billing Settings page. Ensure you're logged into your account before visiting either page. The credit balance is found under the Redeem button on (1) the Gift Card redemption page, and the same balance can also be found under Roblox credit when (2) visiting the Billing Settings page.

Redeeming Roblox Credit into Robux versus a premium membership

Redeeming a Roblox gift card opens up several options on your account. The first is choosing to convert the funds into Robux, Roblox's primary virtual currency. The second is to buy Roblox Premium, Roblox's subscription service. If you're looking for immediate funds to spend, Robux is the best option. Still, you may opt into Roblox Premium to unlock extra perks and features to benefit your overall experience on the platform; in either case, you'll still acquire Robux.

Roblox Premium membership plans

Roblox Premium replaced the Builders Club when it rolled out; the available tiers reference how much Robux you'll acquire monthly with your membership.

1. Premium 450 ($5/month)
2. Premium 1000 ($10/month)
3. Premium 2000 ($20/month)

Unlocking Roblox Premium will allow you to gain a 10% Robux purchase bonus, the ability to trade items, exclusive discounts in the Avatar Shop and bonus accessories, and access to premium-only items found in experiences.

Where to buy Roblox gift cards

You can obtain Roblox gift cards digitally or buy a physical copy at an applicable retailer. Check out the Roblox gift card page to see which options are available in your location. For digital purchases, tap on the retailer logo to be redirected to the purchase page.

The simplest method of purchasing a gift card is by obtaining one directly on the Roblox gift card page and tapping on the desired amount. You'll have two options: 'A Friend' or 'For Me' and then choose your card's form, digital (email delivery) or physical copy (sent in the mail) to buy and send. Note: If you are sending a physical copy, you must input a valid address and pay an additional fee during checkout; you'll also have to wait for the card to ship.
