A Roblox group allows multiple creators to work on the same experience, use the same assets, share profits, and give credit to all contributors.
Creating a New Group
Creating a group costs 100 Robux. New groups maintain certain capabilities on the legacy Groups pages, but improved workflows and options for configuring roles/permissions and inviting members are only available on the Creator Dashboard.
To create a new group:
Navigate to the Creator Dashboard and select Create Group from the View As dropdown menu.
On the setup page, upload an image for the group logo and enter the group name.
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.
From the Creator Dashboard, select the group from the View As dropdown menu and navigate to Collaboration ⟩ Roles.
For each role, carefully confirm the permissions under the Permissions tab.

Managing Members
Once roles have been configured for the group, members can be invited and assigned from the Collaboration ⟩ Members page.
Inviting Members
You can invite new members through the Invite button in the upper‑right corner.
From the popup, locate a creator by typing their username into the search field. Creators will be notified when invited to your group (a customizable setting within the creator notification system), or you can copy the group link and share it with invited creators through other means.
Assigning Roles
To assign one or more roles to a member, hover over their name, click the ⋮ button, and then click the ⊕ button for the desired role.
To quickly un-assign a role from the members overview, hover over it and click the ⊗ button.
Removing Members
To remove a member entirely, hover over their name and click the "trash" button. A dialog will appear for you to confirm their removal.
Managing Payouts
If you're the owner of a selected group, you'll find a Payouts page under Finances. Here, you can send one‑time payouts, as well as define percentage splits with other members.
One-Time Payouts
Group owners can make one-time payouts 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.
Recurring Payouts
Group owners can also define recurring payouts across the entire group and per‑experience, assigning a percentage payout to each member before the remainder enters the group's overall balance.
Consider the following scenario where a group experience "Laser Maze" is split 40%–30%–10% among three members, with a remainder of 20%.
Assuming the experience earns 1000 Robux, the three members receive 400, 300, and 100 Robux respectively (40%–30%–10%).
The remaining 200 Robux — 20% of the experience split — passes onward to the group split percentages, defined at 20%–20%–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.
Intellectual Property Protection in Groups
Group members with permission to edit all group experiences 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:
- Confirm that each member is assigned the appropriate role.
- Check that each group role has the correct permissions.
- Confirm that Place Copying is disabled before private assets are added.
