Just a simple question. How would I prompt a user to buy a limited in-game?

To prompt a user to buy a limited in-game item in Roblox, you can use the PromptPurchase function provided by the MarketplaceService service. This function opens a dialog where the user can confirm the purchase of the specified item. Here’s an example of how you can use it:

local Players = game:GetService(“Players”)
local MarketplaceService = game:GetService(“MarketplaceService”)

local userId = Players.LocalPlayer.UserId
local itemId = 12345678 – Replace with the actual Item ID of the limited item

local success, error = pcall(function()
local playerHasItem = MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(userId, itemId)

if not playerHasItem then
    MarketplaceService:PromptPurchase(userId, itemId)
else
    print("You already own this limited item.")
end

end)

if not success then
warn(“Error:”, error)
end

Never knew I had to use user id.

i mean the pass id/limited id i think that would be more efficient

I’m not sure what Limited your Prompting

If its your own, you should be fine and can ignore what I’m about to say.

If they are any from the public marketplace/other people limiteds. (I know some games try and caculate the value of people inventories and prompt other peoples limiteds).

You should make sure you can prompt it in your Game with MarketplaceService:GetProductInfo(LimitedID).CanBeSoldInThisGame

All I would recommend and for the most part you should be good :slight_smile:
