Roblox Username Changes Cost 1,000 Robux

Changing your Roblox username costs 1,000 Robux, which is Roblox's in-game currency. You pay this amount directly through your Roblox account when you make the change. There is no way to change your username without paying — Roblox does not offer free username changes.

The 1,000 Robux fee applies whether you are changing your username for the first time or the tenth time. The cost stays the same regardless of how long you have owned your account or what your current username is.

Key Takeaways

  • A username change on Roblox costs exactly 1,000 Robux every time you make one.
  • You can only change your username once every 30 days, so plan your new name before you pay.
  • Robux can be purchased with real money, earned through game creation, or received as a gift from another player.
  • The fee is non-refundable once you confirm the change, so double-check your spelling before you complete the transaction.

How Much 1,000 Robux Costs in Real Money

The real-money cost of 1,000 Robux depends on which package you buy. Roblox sells Robux in bundles, and the price per Robux changes based on the bundle size. A small bundle costs more per Robux than a large one.

The smallest bundle is 400 Robux for $4.99 USD. To get 1,000 Robux this way, you would need to buy multiple bundles and spend more than $12. The 1,000 Robux bundle itself costs $9.99 USD, which is the most direct route. Larger bundles like 2,200 Robux for $19.99 USD offer better value per Robux, but you would spend more upfront.

Prices vary by country and currency. If you are outside the United States, check the Roblox website in your region to see the cost in your local currency.

Where to Find the Username Change Option

To change your username, log into your Roblox account and go to your account settings. Click the gear icon in the top right corner of the page, then select Settings from the dropdown menu.

In Settings, click the Account tab on the left side. You will see a section labeled Username with your current name displayed. Click the Change Username button next to it. Roblox will show you the 1,000 Robux cost and ask you to confirm before charging your account.

Type your new username into the text box and check that it is spelled correctly. Usernames can be 3 to 20 characters long and can include letters, numbers, and underscores. Once you confirm the change, the fee is charged and cannot be reversed.

The 30-Day Waiting Period Between Changes

After you change your username, you must wait 30 days before you can change it again. This rule applies to every username change, so if you change your mind about your new name, you cannot fix it when ready.

The 30-day timer starts the moment you confirm the change. If you change your username on January 15, you cannot change it again until February 14. This is why checking your spelling before you confirm is so important — you will be stuck with any typos for a month.

Ways to Get Robux Without Spending Money

If you do not want to buy Robux with real money, you have two other options: earning Robux through game creation or receiving them as a gift.

Earning Robux through games: If you create a game on Roblox, you can earn Robux when other players spend money in your game. This requires building a game that other people want to play and spend money on, which takes time and skill. You must also be at least 13 years old and have a verified account to cash out Robux.

Receiving Robux as a gift: Another player can send you Robux directly if they have a premium membership. They can purchase a gift card or send Robux to your account through the Roblox website. This is the fastest way to get free Robux if you know someone willing to send them to you.

What Happens If You Do Not Have Enough Robux

If you try to change your username but do not have 1,000 Robux in your account, Roblox will not let you complete the change. The system will show you how many Robux you have and how many you need. You will have to buy more Robux before you can proceed.

Roblox does not hold your new username while you save up for the fee. If someone else takes the username you want while you are gathering Robux, that name is gone. Choose your new username carefully and make sure you have the Robux ready before you start the change process.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I change my username for free if I have a premium membership?

No. Premium membership does not include free username changes. The 1,000 Robux fee applies to all players, regardless of membership status. Premium members do get other perks like a monthly Robux stipend and access to exclusive items, but username changes are not one of them.

What if I change my username and then want my old name back?

You cannot reclaim your old username automatically. Once you change away from a name, it becomes available for anyone else to take. If you want it back later, you would have to pay 1,000 Robux again to change to it — but only if no one else has claimed it in the meantime.

Do I lose my games, friends, or items if I change my username?

No. Your games, friends list, inventory, and account history all stay the same when you change your username. Only the name displayed on your profile and in games changes. Your account ID remains the same, so everything tied to your account follows you.

Can I change my username on mobile?

Yes. The process is the same on mobile as on a computer. Log into your account, go to Settings, click Account, and select Change Username. You will still need 1,000 Robux and will face the same 30-day waiting period between changes.
