Wow, this will really help out smaller developers, cheers to progress!!!

Amazing! How will you prevent abuse though?

OMG DID I READ RIGHT? Thanks!

I just noticed this will probably make Premium Payouts the top source of revenue on my game and many others too.

My initial question about wether different premium tiers award premium playtime differently was never answered.

Regardless, this is an amazing change!

I like the idea but wouldn’t you think people would not only abuse the system but also take advantage of it? I’m not saying people will do that (however, its a certain possibility) but rather if the system it self is secure?. As scamming is one role that could come into place which is not good. Over all, the idea is AMAZING! I like it, but I will be very conscious of who I’m dealing with .

Ever so thankful for this update, especially for smaller communities that lack other ways of revenue.

What is the rate now for payouts?

Ok6c · February 26, 2021, 9:59pm

Everyone will ask questions here and there, of course, many people ask questions about upcoming updates !!!

Thank you Roblox once again!

One sentence, this is poggers.

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you & THANK YOU, ROBLOX!!! Love the support you are giving to the developers at this devastating time. Couldn’t be much happier with the recent updates and your love for us developers!

madagascar7777 · February 26, 2021, 10:05pm

Thank you very much. This will help some people by a lot!

LowPolys · February 26, 2021, 10:07pm

Gamepasses. However at the current time, premium payouts will now be making us more than gamepasses/dev products combined after the fee.

Redacted_UnRedacted · February 26, 2021, 10:11pm

Yoooo, this is actually very good for games that do not have dev products/gamepasses!

soulvampe · February 26, 2021, 10:12pm

This is phenomenal for all developers alike. But at the same time, this is increasing incentives to play and develop more on Roblox overall which is exactly what was mentioned in the Roblox Investor Day stream.

Codeliptic · February 26, 2021, 10:13pm

This will help a bunch, thanks Roblox!

CriticalDucky · February 26, 2021, 10:16pm

Thanks for this! I rely on premium payouts pre-game launch for funds for advertisements.

TO ALL THOSE PEOPLE SAYING THIS CAN BE ABUSED:
It can’t. The robux you are getting from premium payouts is WAY less in value than what you pay when you pay for premium. Roblox Staff always keep in mind economics.

Dear_Anonymous · February 26, 2021, 10:17pm

do you get payout if you play your own game with premium

DevTurtIe · February 26, 2021, 10:18pm

This is great news for all Devs and all new developers cause they will earn more premium payout’s and stuff ty roblox for increasing the premium payouts.

Well 1 thing i sad i did get my payout 1 day ago : ( so i don’t have more but next month i will have more robux what i can expect.

LucasMZ_RBX · February 26, 2021, 10:25pm

Since launch, so, it’s 9X the ORIGINAL, RELEASE price, but “only” 5x from the past change.

Edit: Actually I think what I said before was true, but they got the 5 one wrong.
