How to make a Roblox game pass (and give the perk in a script)
Short answer
Create the pass in Creator Hub > your experience > Monetization > Passes, set its price and copy its ID. In a server script, check MarketplaceService:UserOwnsGamePassAsync(userId, passId) when the player joins and give the perk; also listen to PromptGamePassPurchaseFinished so a pass bought during play works right away.
Copy-paste code
ServerScriptService/Passes.server.lua
local MarketplaceService = game:GetService("MarketplaceService")
local Players = game:GetService("Players")
local VIP_PASS = 0000000 -- your pass id
local function givePerk(player)
player:SetAttribute("VIP", true)
-- e.g. double coins: check player:GetAttribute("VIP") where coins are awarded
end
Players.PlayerAdded:Connect(function(player)
local ok, owns = pcall(MarketplaceService.UserOwnsGamePassAsync, MarketplaceService, player.UserId, VIP_PASS)
if ok and owns then givePerk(player) end
end)
MarketplaceService.PromptGamePassPurchaseFinished:Connect(function(player, passId, purchased)
if purchased and passId == VIP_PASS then givePerk(player) end
end)
-- client button: MarketplaceService:PromptGamePassPurchase(player, VIP_PASS)Good to know
Passes don't use ProcessReceipt (that is for developer products).
Wrap UserOwnsGamePassAsync in pcall: it is a web call and can fail; you can re-check a minute later.
Roblox keeps 30% of each pass sale; you keep 70%. Plan prices with the free game pass price planner.

Where do I find the pass ID?
Creator Hub > Monetization > Passes; the number in the pass's URL.
Do passes need to be Listed?
To appear outside your game (for example on Roblox's surfaces), yes.
