Two numbers, two directions
The reason "how much is 1,000 Robux" has two answers is that Roblox sells Robux at one price and buys them back at another. You pay about $0.0162 CAD per Robux at the small bundle tiers. Roblox pays creators about $0.0052 CAD per earned Robux through the Developer Exchange. The gap is roughly threefold, and Roblox sets it that way on purpose. It is how the platform funds itself.
That has a practical consequence worth being clear about with younger players: buying Robux is spending, not investing. There is no mechanism to sell purchased Robux back, at any price. Robux bought with a card or redeemed from a gift card are permanently locked to the account.
Getting to exactly 1,000 Robux
Roblox does not sell a 1,000 Robux bundle. The nearest options are 800 Robux for $12.99 and 1,700 Robux for $25.99. The $16.20 figure on this page is the value of 1,000 Robux at the standard rate rather than a price you can pay directly. Most people arriving at exactly 1,000 got there through a gift card balance, a Premium stipend, or earnings.
If you are cashing out instead
1,000 earned Robux are worth about $5.25 CAD, but you cannot cash out that amount on its own. DevEx requires a minimum balance of 30,000 earned Robux, worth roughly $157 CAD, along with Roblox Premium and a verified DevEx portal account. See the DevEx calculator for a full payout estimate.
