Prompt private server purchase

As a Roblox developer, it is currently too hard to advertise the benefits of buying a VIP server - leading to almost no-one using it as the only place to buy a VIP server is underneath the server tab on the webpage.

If Roblox is able to address this issue, it would improve my development experience because I will be able to prompt users to purchase a VIP server within my game instead of forcing them to go back to the game page - leading to annoying UX.

I believe that there should be a way to prompt a purchase of a VIP server - as you can already prompt subscription purchases (recurring payments) and almost every other asset.
For example, I wanted to add a way to create a VIP server within the server browser of my game because in VIP servers you receive certain benefits - the only way to advertise these benefits currently is within the games description or forcing the user to go back to the game page to purchase a VIP server and then have to rejoin within that VIP server which causes a lot of friction and poor user experience.

A feature where you can prompt a purchase of a VIP server and then be able to view the VIP servers that a user owns so that I can list them at the top of a server browser would be extremely beneficial as I believe that most people do not utilise this feature because it is only available on the site - leading to the user forgetting about its existence.

I completely agree! The private server area is very hidden, and there’s no way for you advertise any sort of benefits that might come from buying the private server, for example an admin panel to play with while in the private server.

It would be a very nice feature, an extra way for us to monetize our games and players to be exposed to possibly more content
