When you send someone a Roblox gift card from Roblox.com (roblox.com/giftcards), you’re not just giving them unlimited possibilities: you’re giving them a personal message of friendship, affection, or appreciation. That’s why there are gift card designs for all occasions and personalities, and that’s why we’re turning to the community to help us make even more options. Here’s how you can enter our first Digital Gift Card Design Contest!

First, create a gift card design. It must be Roblox-related and follow the specifications below, but otherwise, the only limit is your imagination:

  • Measures 960 pixels horizontally by 576 pixels vertically
  • Has a resolution of 72 ppi
  • Does not include Roblox logos

Secondly, follow @Roblox on Twitter. You must be using your own profile (and therefore must be 13 or older) and your profile must be set to Public.

Finally, reply to this post with the hashtag #RobloxDesignContest, a link to your Roblox profile, and of course, an image of your design. If you want to name it or post a description, you’re welcome to, but it’s totally optional.

We’ll accept submissions until 11:59 AM PDT on Friday, October 2, 2020. After that, we’ll review the entries with the most likes and pick out twelve winners. Submissions will be judged by:

  1. Originality: Does your entry exhibit a style or aesthetic that isn’t currently available?
  2. Appeal: Does your entry fit the fun and imaginative personality of Roblox?
  3. Creativity: How unique or creative is your entry?

If you’re one of the twelve talented winners, you’ll receive a $100 USD Roblox Digital Gift Card! Think of it as our gift to you. Winners will be announced in mid-November 2020. Good luck!

Fall 2020 Digital Roblox Gift Card Design Contest

Terms and Conditions

Thank you for being a part of Roblox! As we often say, Roblox is the Imagination Platform, the ultimate virtual universe where imagination rules. Key to that is your imagination and your participation. So, we are excited that you are taking part in the Fall 2020 Digital Roblox Gift Card Design Contest (“Contest”), which asks qualifying Roblox users (each an “Entrant“) to submit ideas for digital Roblox gift card designs for distribution on Roblox (each an “Entry“).

1. Acceptance of Terms. Below are the terms and conditions that govern your participation in the Contest (“Contest Terms”). These Contest Terms are supplemental to the Roblox Terms of Use (“General Terms”) which govern your use of the Roblox websites or any Roblox products, software, applications, content, data feeds, and services (“Roblox Services”). The General Terms are incorporated herein by reference. In addition, all Twitter terms and conditions apply to your use of Twitter in connection with the Contest, and failure to comply with the Twitter terms of use which are displayed on www.Twitter.com will invalidate your Entry. If there is any conflict between the Contest Terms, on the one hand, and the Twitter terms and conditions, on the other hand, then the Contest Terms will apply in relation to disputes relating to the Contest. If you do not agree to the General Terms and the Contest Terms, you may not participate in the Contest.

2. General Conditions. The Contest is open to Roblox registered users who are 13 years of age or older as of the Entry date and have a valid Twitter account. Roblox employees, their immediate family members and persons living in the same household are not eligible. The Contest is void where prohibited or limited by law or where registration, bonding or localization is required. No purchase or payment is necessary to enter the Contest, and a purchase or payment will not increase the chances of winning. Chance of winning depends on the skill of each Entrant and the number of Entrants. If an Entrant is under the age of majority in his/her state or country of residence, the Entrant may only enter the Contest and is only eligible to win with the consent of the Entrant’s parent or legal guardian. In such a case, you represent, warrant and covenant that both you and your parent or legal guardian have read these Contest Terms and agree to be bound thereby. You further acknowledge and agree that by entering the Contest you are accepting a benefit that you cannot return or disgorge and that we are relying on your representations regarding your ability to accept and perform these Contest Terms, and you therefore waive any right you may have under applicable law to void, rescind, or otherwise avoid these Contest Terms. We reserve the right to confirm parental consent at any time by any manner, including by having the Entrant’s parent or legal guardian sign a parental consent form. If you are a parent or guardian consenting to these Contest Terms on behalf of a child between the ages of 13 and 18, you additionally agree to guarantee and be fully responsible for that person’s performance hereunder, including all financial obligations or liability he or she may incur, and all disclaimers and waivers of applicable legal protections provided herein, and you agree to take all actions (including executing such additional documents or agreements) necessary to effect and perfect the foregoing. In such cases, prizes will be awarded in the name of the Winner’s (as defined below) parent or legal guardian. Any reference to an Entrant herein shall be deemed to include his/her parent or legal guardian, as applicable. In all other cases, you represent that you are 18 years or older and at least the age of majority in your jurisdiction of residence and fully competent to enter, and you hereby agree and acknowledge that you have read, understood, and agree to be bound by these Official Rules without modification.

4. Winner Selection.

4.1. After the end of the Contest Period, we will choose the top one hundred (100) Entries that receive the most “likes” on Twitter (“Best Entries”). We will select twelve (12) winning Entrants from such Best Entries (each a “Winner”) based on the following equally weighted criteria:

Roblox reserves the right to choose additional winners. Additionally, potential Winners will be required to sign a Winner’s Agreement confirming the rights granted to Roblox.

5. Prize. The Winners will each receive one hundred United States dollars ($100 USD) in Roblox Gift Cards. If selected as a Winner, you agree to pay any taxes related to the prize required of you, and to provide the information necessary for us to facilitate payment of this prize. Failure to acknowledge receipt of your win, or provide your full name and address, within 48 hours of receiving notice of your win from Roblox (or within another claim period if specifically stated) may invalidate your Entry and we may pick an alternative Winner. You acknowledge that in the event you are a Winner, we may post your Twitter or Roblox user name on Twitter, Roblox and other places.

6. Intellectual Property Rights, Representations, and Warranties.

6.1. By submitting an Entry, you represent that:

e) the Entry has not been published or distributed previously in any media or entered into any other contest or promotion.

6.2. By submitting an Entry, you irrevocably and without further consideration assign all right, title and interest in such Entry, including any and all trademark, copyright and other intellectual property rights, to Roblox. You agree that you will, upon the reasonable request of Roblox and without demanding any further consideration therefor, do all things necessary, proper or advisable, including execution, acknowledgement and recordation of specific assignments, oaths, declarations and other documents to assist Roblox in obtaining, perfecting, sustaining and/or enforcing its rights in the Entry.

You waive any right to inspect or approve uses of the Entry. You waive intellectual property rights, privacy/publicity rights or other legal or moral rights that might preclude Roblox’s use of the Entry, and agree not to sue or assert any claim against Roblox for the use of the Entry or your likeness or statements. Except to the extent in conflict with or as otherwise provided in this Agreement, in the course of participating in this Contest, whatever you provide to us (whether we ask for it or not) will be considered User-Generated Content (UGC), as that term is defined in the General Terms. For the sake of clarity, that UGC will be subject to the General Terms, including without limitation Section 6(B) and the royalty-free license to Roblox to reproduce and distribute your UGC on the platform described therein.

We reserve the right to correct any typographical, printing, computer programming or operator errors, including without limitation computer errors that erroneously award prizes.
