Roblox Game Pass Scripting Sample

In order to help you know how to make a game pass, I will show you an simple example for demonstration:

local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local ReplicatedStorage = game:GetService("ReplicatedStorage")

local player = Players.LocalPlayer
local gamePassId = 12345678 -- Replace this with your real Game Pass ID
local vipTool = ReplicatedStorage:WaitForChild("VIPTool")

-- Prompt purchase after some conditions
MarketplaceService:PromptGamePassPurchase(player, gamePassId)

First we gets the Players service. Why this is important? It allows you to access player-related info like the current player, their data and the interactions. Next, we need the MarketplaceService. This build in service in Roblox Studio is super important. The main responsibilities of this service is used to handle Game Passes, Developer Products, and other purchases in Roblox. We will keep using it coming.

And then the ReplicatedStorage service. I have shared quite a lot about this service in another tutorial teaching you about how to add backpacks. You can refer to that step by step guide. Basically, it’s a special container used to store shared objects (like tools, models, scripts). You just need to remember both server and client can access to this special container.

Extra Tips for the scripts

After that, you should get the local player (the one playing your game!). One thing you should be noted, the script only work in LocalScript. The reason is only LocalScript can access LocalPlayer. Follow by create a local variable and store the ID number of your game pass. I will show you later how to get that ID number.

Using the ReplicatedStorage service retrieve a tool you want for selling, and assign it to the local variable vipTool for example. Finally, by certain condition you set, for example, after user click a buy button, using the script by passing player and gamePassId as parameter, a popup will be shown to ask if the player want to buy the game pass:

MarketplaceService:PromptGamePassPurchase(player, gamePassId)
