Your Roblox password is the secret code only you know that lets you log into your account
Your Roblox password is a string of characters — letters, numbers, and symbols — that you create when you sign up for Roblox or change your password later. It is the second piece of information you enter after your username or email address when you log in. Only you should know it. If someone else learns your password, they can log into your account, spend your Robux (the in-game currency), change your settings, and lock you out by changing the password themselves.
Roblox stores your password in an encrypted form, which means the company cannot see it even if someone asked them to tell you what it is. This is actually a safety feature — it means Roblox itself cannot hand your password to a hacker, because Roblox does not have it to give. If you forget your password, you have to reset it by proving you own the email address or phone number attached to your account.
Key Takeaways
- Your Roblox password should be at least 8 characters long and include uppercase letters, lowercase letters, numbers, and symbols to make it harder to guess.
- Never share your password with anyone, including Roblox staff, friends, or family members — Roblox will never ask you for it.
- If you forget your password, go to the Roblox login page and click "Forgot Password?" to reset it using your email or phone number.
- If you think someone else knows your password, change it when ready from your account settings, and check your email address and phone number to make sure they have not been changed.
How to create a strong Roblox password
A strong password is one that is hard for someone to guess or crack using a computer program. Roblox requires passwords to be at least 8 characters long. Beyond that minimum, the stronger your password, the safer your account is.
Mix uppercase letters (A, B, C), lowercase letters (a, b, c), numbers (0, 1, 2), and symbols (!@#$%^&*) together. Avoid using words from the dictionary, your username, your real name, or information someone could find out about you — like your birthday or the name of your pet. A password like "BlueMoon2024!" is stronger than "roblox123" because it uses all four types of characters and is not a predictable pattern.
Do not reuse the same password across multiple websites. If a hacker gets your password from one site, they will try it on Roblox, your email, your bank, and everywhere else you have an account. A password manager — a program that stores and generates passwords for you — can help you keep track of different passwords for different sites.
Why you should never share your password
Roblox staff will never ask you for your password. Not in a direct message, not in an email, not in a support ticket. If someone claiming to be from Roblox asks for your password, they are lying. This is one of the most common scams targeting Roblox players.
Friends and family members should not have your password either, even if you trust them. People change, devices get lost or stolen, and accounts get hacked. If someone else knows your password and something goes wrong — your Robux disappears, your account gets banned, your email gets changed — you will have a much harder time proving the account is yours and getting it back.
If you have shared your password with someone in the past, change it right now. Go to your account settings, find the password section, and create a new one. Then check that your email address and phone number are still correct, because a hacker's first move is often to change those so you cannot reset your password later.
What to do if you forget your password
Go to the Roblox login page at roblox.com. Below the username and password boxes, you will see a link that says "Forgot Password?" Click it. Roblox will ask you to enter your username or the email address connected to your account.
If you enter your email address, Roblox will send you a link to reset your password. Check your email inbox — if you do not see it within a few minutes, check your spam or junk folder. Click the link in the email, and you will be taken to a page where you can create a new password. If your account has a phone number on file, Roblox may also offer to send you a code by text message instead.
If you cannot access the email address or phone number on your account, contact Roblox support through the help page at roblox.com/support. They will ask you questions to verify you own the account — like what email address you used to sign up, what games you have played, or when you created the account. Be as specific as you can. Support can take several days to respond.
How to change your password safely
Log into your Roblox account. Click the gear icon in the top right corner and select "Settings." On the left side, click "Security." You will see a section labeled "Password" with a button that says "Change Password."
Click that button. Roblox will ask you to enter your current password first — this is a safety check to make sure it is really you making the change. Then enter your new password twice to make sure you typed it correctly. Your new password should follow the same rules as a strong password: at least 8 characters, mixing uppercase, lowercase, numbers, and symbols.
After you change your password, you will be logged out of all devices. Log back in on each device you use — your computer, phone, tablet, or gaming console — with your new password. If you see a device you do not recognize in your login history, that means someone else has been using your account, and you should change your password again.
Signs your password may have been compromised
Watch for these red flags: you notice Robux missing from your account, you see games or items you did not buy, your email address or phone number has changed without your permission, or you receive emails about account activity you did not do. Any of these means someone else has logged into your account.
If this happens, change your password when ready. Then check your email address, phone number, and two-factor authentication settings to make sure they are correct. If your email has been changed, you may not be able to reset your password yourself — contact Roblox support and explain what happened. They can help you regain control of your account, but it may take several days.
After you regain access, consider turning on two-factor authentication if you have not already. This adds a second security step: even if someone knows your password, they cannot log in without a code that Roblox sends to your phone or email. You can turn this on in your Security settings.
Frequently Asked Questions
Can Roblox staff see my password?
No. Roblox stores passwords in encrypted form, which means even Roblox employees cannot read them. If you forget your password, Roblox cannot tell you what it is — they can only send you a link to reset it. If someone claiming to be Roblox staff asks for your password, they are a scammer.
What should I do if I think someone is using my account?

No. If a hacker gets your password from one website, they will try it everywhere. Use a different password for Roblox, your email, your bank, and other important accounts. A password manager can help you keep track of them.
How often should I change my Roblox password?
