Creating a group takes five minutes and a small amount of Robux
A group in Roblox is a community space where you and other players can gather, chat, and work together on games or projects. To create one, you need a Roblox account, at least 100 Robux (the in-game currency), and access to the groups page on the Roblox website. The process is straightforward: you fill in a name and description, pay the one-time fee, and your group exists when ready. You then become the owner and can invite friends, set roles, and manage what members can do.
Groups are useful if you want a dedicated space for your friends, a team for a specific game, or a community around a shared interest. Unlike a private chat, a group has a permanent home page where members can see announcements, view the group's games, and interact over time.
Key Takeaways
- You need 100 Robux to create a group, which costs real money or comes from Roblox rewards if you have a Premium membership.
- Groups are created on the Roblox website, not in the game itself, so you will need to open a web browser.
- Once created, you are the group owner and can invite members, assign roles, and change the group description anytime.
- Group members can post on the group wall, join group games, and see announcements you post as the owner.
What you need before you start
First, check your Robux balance. Log into your Roblox account on the website, click your username in the top right corner, and select Account. On the left sidebar, click Robux. The number shown is what you have available. If you have fewer than 100 Robux, you will need to purchase more or wait for Premium rewards if you have that membership.
If you need to buy Robux, click the green Buy Robux button on the Robux page. Roblox will show you package options starting at small amounts. The smallest purchase is usually around $5 USD and gives you more than 100 Robux, so you will have enough to create a group and have some left over.
You also need to know what you want to name your group and have a brief description ready. Group names cannot be changed after creation, so choose something you will be happy with. The description can be updated anytime, so do not worry if you want to refine it later.
How to create the group on the website
Open a web browser and go to www.roblox.com. Log in if you are not already. In the top navigation bar, look for Create (or sometimes labeled as a plus icon). Click it, then select Group from the dropdown menu.
You will see a form with fields for Group Name, Description, and sometimes a Group Icon upload option. Type your group name in the first field. This is permanent, so make sure it reflects what your group is about. In the description field, write a few sentences about the group's purpose — for example, "A group for players who love building games" or "Team for Skyblock speedruns."
If you want to add a group icon (a small image that represents your group), click the upload button and select an image from your device. The image should be square and at least 420 by 420 pixels, though Roblox will resize it automatically. You can skip this step and add an icon later.
Scroll down and click the button to create the group. Roblox will confirm the 100 Robux charge and process the creation. Within a few seconds, your group will be live and you will see the group page.
What to do when ready after creation
When your group is created, you land on the group page as the owner. The first thing to do is invite the friends you want to join. Click the Members tab, then look for an Invite to Group button or option. You can search for usernames and send invitations one at a time. Members will see a notification that they have been invited and can choose to join.
Next, visit the Settings tab (visible only to you as the owner). Here you can set who is allowed to post on the group wall, whether members can create group games, and other permissions. By default, members can post on the wall and see all group information. If you want a more controlled space, you can restrict posting to owners and moderators only.
You can also create roles for your members in the Settings tab. For example, you might create a "Moderator" role for trusted friends who help manage the group, or a "Builder" role for members working on a specific project. Members can be assigned roles, and different roles can have different permissions.
Managing your group as it grows
As members join, you can post announcements on the group wall to keep everyone informed. Click the wall tab and type a message. Announcements appear at the top and stay visible, so use them for important information like game updates or event schedules.
If you create games in Roblox Studio, you can link them to your group. Go to your game's settings and set the group as the owner. This makes the game appear on your group page and means group funds (if you earn Robux from the game) go to the group instead of your personal account.
You can remove members who break group rules by clicking their name and selecting remove. You can also disband the group entirely from Settings if you no longer want it, though this action is permanent and cannot be undone.
Common mistakes to avoid
Do not choose a group name you might regret — it cannot be changed. Spend a minute thinking about whether the name will still make sense in a few months. If you are creating a group for a specific game or trend, consider whether the name will feel outdated quickly.
Do not assume members will see your announcements. Many players do not check the group page regularly. If you have important information to share, message members directly or ask them to check the group wall. Some groups use Discord or another chat app alongside Roblox to stay in touch.
Do not set permissions too restrictively at first. If only you can post on the wall, the group will feel empty and members may lose interest. Start with open posting and tighten rules only if spam or inappropriate content becomes a problem.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can I change my group name after I create it?
No, group names are permanent and cannot be changed. Choose carefully before you create the group. If you absolutely need a different name, you would have to create a new group, but you cannot get your 100 Robux back from the old one.
How do I make someone else an owner of my group?
Go to the Members tab, find the person you want to promote, and click on their name. Select the option to change their role to Owner. You can have multiple owners, and any owner can manage the group the same way you can.
Can I delete my group?
Yes, go to Settings and look for a Disband Group option. This removes the group permanently and you cannot recover it. Members will lose access to the group page, but any games linked to the group will remain playable.
Do I need Robux to join someone else's group?
No, joining a group is free. Only the person creating the group pays 100 Robux. Members can join as many groups as they want without paying anything.
What happens if I run out of Robux after creating a group?
Nothing — the group stays active. The 100 Robux is a one-time fee to create it. You do not need Robux to keep the group running or to manage it.
