Creating a group takes five steps and costs 100 Robux

A Roblox group is a community space where players can gather, chat, and play together under a shared name and identity. To create one, you need a Roblox account, at least 100 Robux (the in-game currency), and about five minutes. The group itself is free to join once it exists — the 100 Robux is a one-time creation fee that Roblox charges to prevent spam.

The process is the same whether you are on a computer or mobile device, though the mobile app layout differs slightly. Once your group is live, you become its owner and can invite other players, set rules, and customize how it looks.

Key Takeaways

  • Creating a group costs 100 Robux, a one-time fee paid when you first set it up.
  • You can create a group from the Groups page on the Roblox website or through the mobile app by navigating to your profile.
  • As the group owner, you can assign roles to other members, set a group description and icon, and control who can post on the group wall.
  • Groups allow you to organize members into ranks with different permissions, so you can have moderators, builders, or other roles without giving everyone owner access.

Step-by-step: Creating your group on the website

Open Roblox.com and log into your account. Click on the three horizontal lines (the menu icon) in the top left corner, then select "Groups" from the dropdown. On the Groups page, look for a button that says "Create Group" — it is usually near the top of the page.

Click that button. A form will appear asking for a group name, description, and icon. The name can be up to 50 characters. The description is optional but helpful — it tells people what your group is about. For the icon, you can upload an image from your computer or leave it blank for now and add one later.

Review the one-time 100 Robux fee at the bottom of the form. If you have enough Robux in your account, click "Create" and the group will be live when ready. Your account will be charged the 100 Robux, and you will become the owner.

Creating a group on mobile

Open the Roblox app and tap your profile icon at the bottom right. Scroll down and tap "Groups." On the Groups page, tap the "+" icon or "Create Group" button. The form is the same as on the website — you enter a name, optional description, and optional icon.

Confirm the 100 Robux charge and tap "Create." The group appears in your list when ready, and you can start inviting members right away.

Setting up roles and permissions for your members

Once your group exists, you can organize members into ranks with different permissions. Click on your group name to open it, then look for "Settings" or "Manage" (the exact label depends on whether you are on mobile or desktop). Select "Roles" or "Ranks."

By default, Roblox creates two ranks: Owner (that is you) and Member. You can add new ranks — for example, Moderator, Builder, or Veteran — and decide what each rank can do. For each rank, you can toggle permissions like "Post on group wall," "Manage group funds," or "Manage members." This lets you give trusted players specific powers without making them owners.

To assign someone to a rank, go to the Members section, find their name, and click the dropdown next to it to choose their rank. They will see the new rank the next time they visit the group.

Customizing your group's appearance and description

Your group's icon and description are the first things people see. To change them, open your group and go to Settings. You can upload a new icon (a square image works best), update the description, and change the group name if needed.

You can also set a group thumbnail — a larger image that appears when the group is listed in search results. This helps your group stand out and gives new members a sense of what it is about. Keep images clear and relevant to your group's purpose.

Managing the group wall and member activity

The group wall is where members post messages, screenshots, and announcements. By default, all members can post. If you want to keep the wall organized or prevent spam, you can change the permissions so only certain ranks can post.

Go to Settings, find "Wall Permissions" or similar, and choose who can post. You can restrict it to Owner only, to specific ranks, or leave it open to everyone. You can also delete posts from the wall if they break your group rules.

Some groups use the wall to announce events, share game recommendations, or coordinate playtime. Others keep it quiet and use the group chat feature instead. It depends on what your group is for and how active you want the community to be.

Inviting players and growing your group

To invite someone to your group, open the group page and look for an "Invite" or "Members" section. You can search for a player by username and send them an invitation. They will see the invite in their notifications and can choose to join.

You can also share your group's link directly with friends. The link appears on your group's main page — copy it and send it through Roblox chat, Discord, or any other platform. Players who click the link can join when ready if your group is set to public.

If you want to keep your group private, you can change the settings so only invited players can join. This is useful if you are creating a group for a specific friend circle or team.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I get my 100 Robux back if I delete the group?

No. The 100 Robux is a one-time creation fee that Roblox does not refund, even if you delete the group later. Think of it as the cost of setting up the space, similar to how some websites charge a small fee to register a domain.

What happens if I leave my group as the owner?

You can transfer ownership to another member before you leave. Go to Settings, find the Members list, and look for an option to make someone else the owner. Once you transfer ownership, you can leave and the new owner takes over all management duties.

Can I change my group's name after I create it?

Yes. Go to Settings and look for "Group Name" or "Edit Group Info." You can change the name, description, and icon anytime without paying an additional fee. The change takes effect when ready.

How many members can join my group?

There is no hard limit on group size. Some groups have hundreds or thousands of members. However, very large groups can be harder to manage — consider creating ranks and assigning moderators to help keep things organized.

Do group members have to be my friends to join?

No. If your group is public, any player can find it and join without being your friend. If it is private, only players you invite can join. You do not need to be friends with someone for them to be in your group.
