Frequently asked questions

What is Roblox?

Roblox is one of the most innovative apps and online gaming systems to hit the internet in recent years. It is an online gaming and game creation platform which allows its users not only to design and program their own games (the imagination being the only limiting factor), but to play other user-created games too. Roblox is especially popular among the younger generation of gamers, and attracts around four million unique users every single month.

Why would I want to cancel my Roblox membership?

There may well come the time when you decide you need to get rid of your Roblox account, for one reason or another. Perhaps you no longer use it, and wish to stop paying for the service, or maybe your kid is simply spending far too much time on it, and you’ve had enough. Maybe (with competing apps beginning to challenge Roblox’s hold on the market niche) you’ve found another app you prefer to use, and wish to cancel your Roblox account so that you can make the switch.

Can I recover my Roblox account after I’ve deleted it?

Technically, since Roblox doesn’t actually provide the option to delete your account, you can access it whenever you like once you’ve cancelled your Roblox membership, so long as you renew said membership (or are still within a prepaid membership period, having cancelled membership renewal). However, Roblox’s systems perform an annual sweep of old, inactive accounts, and remove them from their servers. As such, if you leave your account inactive for a year or more, chances are it will finally be deleted, and you will no longer be able to access it.

What happens when I cancel my Roblox membership?

Once you cancel the auto-renewal of your Roblox membership, you will still retain access to your account until the prepaid membership period is up (in other words, up until the date on which your membership would have been renewed). Your account, however, as discussed above, will not be deleted, and you will still be able to access it again if you choose to renew your membership in future (up to a point of about one year of inactivity, at which point Roblox will likely have removed/deleted it from their servers).

Can I cancel my Roblox membership from my Xbox One/Series X?

No, you cannot. You must cancel your membership from the desktop or mobile/tablet app.

When can I cancel my Roblox membership?

You can cancel the renewal of your membership subscription anytime before the next payment deadline.

Is there really no way to have my account deleted?

Not easily, no, but you could try either emailing or phoning the Roblox customer care and support team directly. Alternatively, you could always do something which contradicts the Roblox terms of service (i.e. something to get you banned), however we would not recommend this method.

Does deleting the Roblox app cancel my subscription/membership?

Absolutely not. Ensure that you have cancelled your subscription via the tutorials above, before you consider deleting the app from your computer or mobile/tablet device.
