How To Make Gamepass In New Roblox Studio

Creating a Gamepass is one of the most effective ways for developers to monetize their experiences in Roblox. Whether you are looking to sell a special ability, a unique cosmetic item, or a VIP membership, understanding the current workflow in the new Roblox Studio and the Creator Dashboard is essential. Because Roblox frequently updates its user interface, the process has moved from the old "Develop" page to a more streamlined centralized dashboard.

What is a Roblox Gamepass?

A Gamepass is a special item that players can purchase with Robux to gain permanent benefits within a specific game. Unlike developer products, which can be bought multiple times (like in-game currency), a Gamepass is a one-time purchase. Once a player owns the pass, they retain the benefits every time they join the experience.

Step-by-Step Guide to Creating a Gamepass

Since Gamepasses are managed through the web-based Creator Dashboard rather than directly inside the 3D viewport of Roblox Studio, follow these steps to set yours up correctly.

Step 1: Access the Creator Dashboard

To begin, you must navigate to the official Roblox Creator Dashboard. You can do this by clicking the "Create" tab on the main Roblox website or by visiting create.roblox.com. Ensure you are logged into the account that owns the game you wish to monetize.

Step 2: Select Your Experience

Once inside the Dashboard, click on the "Creations" tab.
Locate the specific experience (game) you want the Gamepass to belong to.
Click on the game thumbnail to open its detailed management settings.

Step 3: Create the Pass

With your game selected, you need to find the monetization section:

On the left-hand sidebar menu, scroll down to the "Associated Items" section.
Click on the "Passes" tab.
Click the blue "Create a Pass" button.

Step 4: Upload Assets and Details

Now you will define what your Gamepass looks like and what it is called:

Upload Image: Click "Change" to upload a square image. This image serves as the icon players see in the store. Use a clear, high-quality image to attract buyers.
Name: Give your pass a catchy, descriptive name (e.g., "Super Speed Coil" or "VIP Access").
Description: Briefly explain what the player gets when they buy the pass. Be honest and clear to avoid player complaints.

Once these details are filled in, click "Create Pass."

Step 5: Setting the Price

Your pass is now created, but it is "Off Sale" by default. To make it purchasable:

Click on the newly created Gamepass from your list of Associated Items.
Navigate to the "Sales" tab in the left menu.
Toggle the "Item for Sale" switch to on.
Enter the price in Robux. Note: Roblox takes a 30% commission fee, meaning you will receive 70% of the listed price.
Click "Save Changes."

How to Make the Gamepass Work in Roblox Studio

Creating the pass in the dashboard only handles the transaction. To make the pass actually do something in your game, you must use Luau scripting inside Roblox Studio.

To implement the pass, you will need the Pass ID. You can find this in the URL of your Gamepass page in the browser (it is the long string of numbers).
