A Roblox promo codeis issued by Roblox itself, not by a game's developers. You redeem it on the Roblox website rather than inside a game, and it grants an avatar item — a hat, a shoulder pet, a backpack — that you can wear in any experience. It never grants Robux, and it never grants in-game currency.
These are rare. Roblox typically releases promo codes around a brand partnership or platform event and retires them when that event ends, so there are long stretches with no active codes at all.
Our position
Why we don't publish a promo code list
Roblox is the only authoritative source for whether a promo code is live. Sites that publish long lists of "working" promo codes are almost always recycling codes that were retired years ago, which is how people end up convinced their account is broken when the code simply no longer exists.
We track in-game codes because we can check them against a dated source and show you that evidence. We can't do that for promo codes, so instead of guessing, we send you to the one page that always tells the truth about them.

Know the difference
Promo codes vs. in-game codes
Mixing these two up is the single most common reason a code "doesn't work" — the code is fine, it is just being entered in the wrong place.
Official promo code
Roblox itself, usually tied to a brand partnership or platform event.
In-game code
The individual game's developers, for updates and milestones.
Official promo code
On the Roblox website promo code page, while logged in.
In-game code
Inside the game, in a Codes / Twitter / Settings menu.
Official promo code
An avatar item — hats, shoulder pets, backpacks, and other cosmetics.
In-game code
In-game currency, boosts, pets, spins, or cosmetics for that one game.
Official promo code
Very few at any time, and often none. Long gaps between releases are normal.
In-game code
Dozens per popular game, refreshed around each update.
Official promo code
Some ran for years; most are retired once the tie-in event ends.
In-game code
Often days or weeks — expiry after an update is the norm.
Safety
How promo code scams work
"Promo code" is the phrase scammers borrow most often, because it sounds official. Any one of these signals means you should close the page.
No real Roblox code — promo or in-game — ever needs your password, an app install, or a survey. If something asks, it is not from Roblox.
FAQ
What are Roblox promo codes?
Promo codes are codes issued by Roblox itself rather than by a game's developers. You redeem them on the Roblox website while logged in, and they grant avatar items such as hats, shoulder pets, and backpacks — never Robux and never in-game currency.
Where do I redeem a Roblox promo code?
On Roblox's own promo code page at roblox.com/promocodes, while signed in to the account you want the item on. This is the opposite of in-game codes, which are only redeemed inside a game's own menu.
Are there any active Roblox promo codes right now?
Often there are none. Roblox releases promo codes rarely, usually alongside a brand partnership or platform event, and retires them when the event ends. Roblox's own promo code page is the only authoritative list — any site claiming a long list of working promo codes is almost certainly recycling expired ones.
Do Roblox promo codes give free Robux?
No. Roblox has never issued a promo code that grants Robux. Any code, site, or video promising free Robux is a scam, and entering your password anywhere outside roblox.com puts your account at risk.
Why did my Roblox promo code not work?
The most likely reason is that it expired — most promo codes are retired once their tie-in event ends. Other causes are a typo (codes are case-sensitive, so paste rather than type), already having claimed the item on that account, or redeeming while signed out.
Do old promo codes like the ones from past Roblox events still work?
Usually not. Codes tied to experiences that Roblox has since closed were retired along with them. A handful of older codes ran for years, but only Roblox's promo code page can confirm whether any specific code is still live today.
