Troubleshooting Common Issues
While the process is usually smooth, sometimes things can go awry. Here are a few common issues and how to address them:

If the Robux still hasn't appeared, check your Roblox transaction history (usually found in your account settings) and your PayPal transaction history to confirm the payment went through. If the payment is confirmed but you haven't received the Robux, contact Roblox support with the transaction details.
- Linking Issues: If you're having trouble linking your PayPal account, ensure you're entering the correct PayPal email address and password. If the problem continues, try clearing your browser's cache and cookies or try linking through a different browser or device.
