Roblox Sidesteps App Stores Offers More Robux For Direct Purchases

Roblox creators have recently shared a new change in a post on their official forum. It basically states that you can get up to 25% more Robux with every purchase if you buy them from the Roblox website or using a gift card. This is what they had to say:
The biggest question on everyone’s mind is why is this offer limited to web and gift cards. And I feel the answer is pretty obvious. They are trying to skirt the audience away from buying Robux from these markets and incentivize them to spend money on direct purchases. This way, they get to keep all the money, removing the middleman and the fees they charge. The problems with app stores and developers aren’t new, as who can forget the skirmish between Epic and Apple’s App Store? But with this move, it seems more, and more developers are fed up with having to pay the exorbitant fees these platforms take up. Maybe we will see more games taking similar steps later down the line if this scheme by Roblox proves to be successful.
But it obviously does not sound like a piece of good news for app stores, given in-game currencies like Robux are a big moneymaker for them. But it is a win-win situation for us customers, who can now score more Robux for the same price. What are your thoughts about this change though? Are you happy with this change or want them to implement it on all platforms? Let us know in the comments below.
