Repeatable purchases are when a user can purchase the same item more than once, such as buying an in-game currency or temporary speed boosts. In Roblox, repeatable purchases are handled by the developer product marketplace service.
The majority of monetization in Roblox happens in two types of transactions: one time purchases and repeatable purchases. Unlike other platforms where often need to create a lot of complex code to handle transactions, Roblox handles the transactions for you using marketplace services. This allows you to quickly set up new in-game purchases.
When monetizing a game, the easiest purchases to add are often cosmetic, such as special effects, avatar items, and other things that don’t directly affect gameplay. Instead of selling purchases that give players an advantage over others, you can sell convenience instead.
Players should never regret making an in-game purchases. Whenever selling an item, make sure that content is clearly described, and well-tested. Provide clear images and item descriptions that accurately informs players what they are purchasing. Test items thoroughly for bugs and make sure they work as players expect.
