Robux

ROBUX (singular Robuck), stylized as R$, is one of the two main currencies on ROBLOX. Introduced on May 14th, 2007, ROBUX is considered as the primary currency, as almost every ROBLOX-created item in the Catalog is sold in it. ROBLOXians currently in a Builders Club (BC) membership receive a daily allowance of 15-60 ROBUX in addition to the 10 tickets received when one signs on daily. A Loyalty Program was introduced to increase a ROBLOXian's income by certain levels. The highest level of maximum boost income is 300%, meaning if that ROBLOXian is registered in the Classic Builders' Club (CBC), Turbo Builders Club (TBC), or Outrageous Builders Club (OBC), that player received a maximum of 45, 105, or 195 ROBUX respectively. This was eventually changed so that Builders Club members can earn up to 3 ROBUX bonus. This loyalty programme was discontinued in 2014.

Earning ROBUX
All Builders Club member receives a variable amount of ROBUX per day, depending on the membership one has signed up for. BC, TBC, and OBC members earn 15, 35, of 60 ROBUX respectively.

All members in Builders Club can also create Shirts, Pants, and T-Shirts, and Gamepasses, which can be sold in the Catalog for ROBUX. They may also earn money by selling Limited or LimitedU items from their inventories.

Currency Exchanging
On the ROBLOX website, players may exchange currencies from tickets to ROBUX and vise-versa. Only trades that are above 20 tickets in value will be accepted. Currently, one ROBUCK is equal to 14 Tickets. This is due to inflation (large amounts of cash being pumped into a system and too little coming out). ROBUX can also be redeemed with real-world currency by purchasing ROBLOX and Rixty Cards. Outrageous Builder's Club members who meet certain prerequisites may also exchange ROBUX into real-world currency through the Developer's Exchange.

Value of ROBUX
The value of ROBUX has increased since it was first introduced. In 2007, the ROBLOX Corporation announced that miked had 3,297 ROBUX and declared him as 'one of the wealthiest Roblox players'. Today, many users have up to 40,000 ROBUX in their accounts without being considered as one of the wealthier users.

There are many reasons behind the increase of ROBUX within ROBLOX's economy: According to this blog post, the price of 17.6 billion ROBUX is equal to $176 million, causing one ROBUCK to equal one penny. Through the Developer's Exchange, 400 ROBUX is equal to $1.
 * More users logging into ROBLOX has caused the supply of both tickets and ROBUX to increase.
 * The buy ROBUX feature has allowed users to purchase ROBUX in quantities of up to 100,000 ROBUX ($499.95).
 * Advanced Builders Club options, such as Outrageous Builders Club, awards participants with up to 60 ROBUX per day.
