Ticket



Tickets (shortened to "Tx" or "Tix") is a discontinued currency and was one of the two currencies of ROBLOX. Compared to the primary currency, ROBUX, Tickets have a very small value. Tickets were earned by players through various methods including visiting the site daily and having other users visit their Place. Tickets could be spent on Catalog items and on advertisements.

Login Bonus
All users earned as a daily login bonus. When the Ambassador program was still running, you earned per link each day.

Place Visits
Users earned for every place visit. If you had Builders Club, you could make your place BC-only, and this payout would increase to per visit instead.

Catalog
You were able to purchase certain items using your Tickets through the Catalog, including hats, faces, and player-created content. You could also sell your own content, such as T-Shirts, to earn Ticket revenue. Clothing designers who sold clothing in Tickets earned 70% of all revenue received from that item. Regular users earned 10% of all revenue and 90% if they were in Builders Club.

RoblEX (Trade Currency)
RoblEX, commonly known as the Currency Exchange, was a feature which allowed you to trade your Tickets for ROBUX and vice versa. This in turn created the ROBLOX economy as the price of Tickets and ROBUX changed through supply and demand. You could earn a substantial amount of profit by buying a large amount of ROBUX for a lower price, then exchanging them later for a larger sum of Tickets.

Discontinuation


There are several reasons why the Tickets had been discontinued. The following reasons were cited for this decision:


 * Tickets had caused confusion and delay for first-time users. By removing Tickets ROBLOX will be simplified from the UI to the catalog to user-accounting.
 * More free items are intended to be released; avatar customization without ROBUX will continue to be creative and rich, migrating towards a fully community driven catalog.
 * Remove incentive for people to login every day simply for the Ticket bonus.
 * Remove incentive for people to create alt accounts for more.

Tickets were not converted to ROBUX if they were not spent by April 13, 2016.

ROBLOX also planned to unveil a new rich achievement and reward system to replace the Ticket bonus. Currency Exchange was also removed at this time. Additionally, the price floor was lowered to to compensate for these changes. Items sold with a Ticket price will have their price converted to ROBUX at a rate of 17:1. To celebrate the Tickets, exclusive, commemorative items were sold in the Catalog from March 15, 2016 to April 14, 2016. Currency trading rates were expected to fluctuate during this time period.

These changes were tested on ROBLOX's GameTest1 site to test the economy before implementing this change. This was done to see if removing Tickets was a viable option.

Many users were unhappy with this change and voiced their disapproval on the Forums.
