Groups (teams)

A Roblox group allows multiple creators to work on the same game, use the same assets, share profits, and give credit to all contributors.

Note

Group ownership of games helps creators collaborate and operate as independent studios. If a conflict arises within a group, Roblox cannot help arbitrate or resolve disagreements.

Group creation

Creating a group costs 100 Robux. You can manage its roles and permissions from the Creator Dashboard or Communities.

Note

Before creating a group, carefully read through the rules and expectations for group management.

To create a new group:

  1. Navigate to the Creator Dashboard, expand the account switcher in the upper‑left, and click the plus (+) button.
  2. On the Create Group page, upload an image for the group logo and enter the group name.
  3. When ready, click the Purchase button. Once the group is created, you'll be directed to the group profile page where you can modify the group's details, including adding up to three social links.

Roles and permissions

Group members can be assigned one or multiple roles within a group, and each role has permissions which specify the abilities of its members.

Note

Role configuration is only accessible if you're the group owner or you have permission to create, configure, and assign group roles.

  1. From the Creator Dashboard, expand the account switcher in the upper‑left and select the group.

  2. Expand the account switcher again and select Roles.

  3. For each role, carefully confirm the permissions under the Permissions tab.

    Permissions are organized into General, Creation, and Community categories. The sections below describe the permissions available in each category.

Click the Save Changes button to apply the permission settings. 5. Click the Settings tab and choose a color and visibility setting for the role, then click Save Changes.

Note

A role's Settings section is also where group owners and members with sufficient permissions can remove a role entirely through the Delete Role button.

Roles are listed in hierarchy order: a role higher in the list has more authority than a role below it. This order matters because some permissions only let members manage roles below their own highest role.

Each role is either public or private. Public roles can be shown on a Community page and in experiences. Private roles are shown only on role and permission management surfaces to authorized members, or to members who hold the private role. Visibility changes where a role appears; it doesn't change the permissions the role grants.

Note

To grant Manage roles, Assign or remove roles from members, Manage access to this group's resources, Manage and spend group revenue, or Delete Data Stores for experiences, you must have two-step verification enabled.

Manage members

Note

Member configuration is only accessible if you're the group owner or you have permission to manage other members and their roles.

To manage members from the Creator Dashboard:

  1. Expand the account switcher in the upper-left and select the group.
  2. Expand the account switcher again and select Members.
  3. Use the Member tab to search for existing members or filter them by role. Use the Invited tab to review pending invitations.

To add a member, click Invite and search for their username. Roblox notifies invited creators according to their notification preferences. You can also copy the group link and share it directly.

Manage roles

You can manage role assignments from either the Members page or a specific role:

Member removal

To remove a member from the group, click the ⋮ button at the end of their row, select Kick user, and confirm the action.

Manage payouts

If you're the group owner or you have the correct permission within Group Revenue, you'll find a Payouts page under Finances in the left navigation. Here, you can send one‑time payouts, as well as define percentage splits with other members.

Note

Some groups may not have this page unlocked initially for various reasons, such as the age of the group or insufficient funds to payout.

Note

Payouts cannot be shared across group members for games that charge for paid access in local currency.

One-time payouts

One-time payouts can be made to members in a batch, selecting a set amount for each. Safety features include 2FA challenges, confirmation dialogues, and checks around the eligibility of members being paid.

One-time payout button indicated in the Payouts section on the Creator Dashboard.

Once you click the Send Robux button, you can choose payout recipients from the popup or upload a .csv spreadsheet file with the columns userId and payoutInRobux, for example:

<table size="small">
userId payoutInRobux 012345 5000 098765 7000

Recurring payouts

Recurring payouts can also be made across the entire group and per‑game, assigning a percentage payout to each member before the remainder enters the group's overall balance.

Split payout buttons indicated in the Payouts section on the Creator Dashboard.

Consider the following scenario where a group game Laser Maze is split 40%–30%–10% among three members, with a remainder of 20%.


Assuming the game earns 1000 Robux, the three members receive 400, 300, and 100 Robux respectively (40%&ndash;30%&ndash;10%).
The remaining 200 Robux (20% of the game split) passes onward to the **group split** percentages, defined at 20%&ndash;20%&ndash;10% among the same three members; they receive an additional 40, 40, and 20 Robux respectively.
The remaining 100 Robux (50% of the group split) is placed in the group's overall balance.
Example flowchart of how game splits are distributed to group members first, with remainder going factored into group splits for final distribution among the group.

Note

Note that revenue from private server subscriptions does not change if you adjust split percentages at a later time, meaning that if a player buys a private server subscription, the split percentages at time of purchase will apply to that particular subscription forever (until it is canceled). This policy may be changed in the future.

Group audit logs

Group members with the View audit logs permission can review group changes using these group management surfaces:

Group owners can use these logs to monitor activity that might violate group guidelines.

Intellectual property protection

Group members with permission to edit all group games can enable the Place Copying setting for a creation, potentially allowing the entire Roblox community to copy it and use assets within it. To help protect intellectual property in a group, the owner or members with sufficient permissions should:
