Roblox’s secondary early currency, commonly nicknamed Tix, was called Tickets.
Tickets existed alongside Robux during Roblox’s early years. Players could earn the currency through platform activity, including logging in and receiving visits to their games, and could use it for avatar items, catalog purchases, and advertising. Because Tickets were generally earned rather than bought directly, they became an important part of Roblox’s early free-to-play economy.
The nickname “Tix” is simply a shortened form of “Tickets,” not a separate currency. That makes alternatives such as Tokens, Coins, or Credits incorrect even though those names sound like typical game currencies. Robux was the other major Roblox currency and eventually became the platform’s sole currency.
Roblox discontinued Tickets in 2016, saying that maintaining two currencies could confuse newer players. The removal also ended a distinctive part of early Roblox culture, although references to Tix remain in historical discussions and some legacy technical documentation.
