Roblox
Roblox's terms do not set a numeric minimum age. A parent or guardian has to read and consent before a minor uses it, and only an adult may buy Robux. Account types are Kids (5–8), Select (9–15), and 16+, and Roblox says those ages vary by region.
No numeric minimum age. A parent consents for a minor.
Age-based Kids and Select accounts have been global since June 2026. Re-check if a screen does not match this description.
Link your age-verified parent account to the child account. You do not read their chats from that link.
Decide whether chat is on
In a browser · ages 5–15 · checked 30 Sep 2026
Kids accounts (5–8) have chat off unless you allow in-game chat. Under 9, game chat needs your consent. Under 13, direct chat needs your consent, and you can turn chat off for under-13s. Chat on Roblox also requires your child to complete an age check (facial age estimation or ID). Until they do, chat stays off even if you allow it, and the age check sets which age group they can chat with.
- Open chat controls on the linked parent account.
- For a child under 9, leave chat off unless you have decided in-game chat is okay.
- For a child under 13, direct messages stay off unless you consent. You can turn chat off entirely.
