PLS DONATE remains one of the most popular social experience games on Roblox, allowing players to create stands and receive donations through linked gamepasses. But nothing is more frustrating than setting everything up correctly—only to realize your gamepasses are not showing at your booth. If you’ve found yourself asking why your passes aren’t appearing, you’re not alone. Display issues are incredibly common, especially with Roblox’s frequent updates in 2026.
TLDR: If your gamepasses aren’t showing in PLS DONATE, the issue is usually caused by privacy settings, incorrect gamepass linking, Roblox caching delays, inventory visibility settings, or server-side sync errors. Updating privacy permissions, waiting for Roblox’s cache to refresh, rejoining a fresh server, or recreating the pass often solves the issue. In fact, these five fixes resolve around 80% of display problems. Follow the steps below systematically to get your donation stand working again.
Why PLS DONATE Gamepasses Fail to Appear
PLS DONATE automatically pulls your public gamepasses and displays them at your booth. However, this process depends on multiple systems working together:
- Your Roblox account settings
- Your experience ownership permissions
- Roblox marketplace synchronization
- Server refresh timing
- Inventory visibility options
If any one of these components fails or lags, your passes may not show up. Here’s what typically causes the issue:
- The gamepass was created under the wrong game
- The pass is still private
- Your inventory is hidden
- The server hasn’t refreshed yet
- Roblox marketplace is temporarily delayed
Let’s break down five proven fixes that resolve most cases in 2026.
1. Make Sure Your Gamepass Is Public
This is the most common mistake—and fortunately, the easiest to fix.
When you create a gamepass in Roblox, it doesn’t always default to public availability. If it remains private, PLS DONATE cannot pull or display it.
How to check:
- Go to Create in Roblox Dashboard.
- Open the experience connected to your gamepass.
- Click Associated Items → Passes.
- Select your pass.
- Ensure it is set to For Sale.
If the pass is not marked for sale, enable it, set a price, and save changes. Wait about 2–5 minutes before rejoining PLS DONATE.
Pro Tip: Even changing the price by 1 Robux can trigger a marketplace refresh.
2. Verify the Pass Was Created Under the Correct Experience
Many players accidentally create the gamepass under the wrong Roblox experience.
PLS DONATE only pulls gamepasses created under experiences that you own. If you made the pass under a test game, group game, or an old project, it may not appear.
To confirm:
- Open Roblox Creator Dashboard
- Select the experience you own personally
- Check the pass location carefully
If the pass is attached to the wrong experience, unfortunately, you cannot transfer it. You’ll need to:
- Create a new pass under the correct experience
- Set it to public
- Price it properly
This single correction resolves a huge percentage of display failures.
3. Check Your Inventory Privacy Settings
In 2026, Roblox’s privacy defaults are stricter than ever. If your inventory visibility is limited, PLS DONATE might not detect your passes.
To review privacy settings:
- Go to Roblox Settings.
- Navigate to Privacy.
- Find Inventory Visibility.
- Set it to Everyone (temporarily).
After updating the setting:
- Log out of Roblox completely.
- Log back in.
- Join a new PLS DONATE server.
Many players skip the logout step—but it helps refresh Roblox’s cached permissions.
Important: You can switch your inventory back later if privacy is a concern.
4. Server Refresh and Roblox Cache Delays
Roblox marketplace sync isn’t always instant. Sometimes everything is set up correctly, but your stand simply hasn’t refreshed.
Ways to trigger a refresh:
- Leave and join a different server
- Use the “Refresh” button at your booth (if available)
- Wait 5–10 minutes after creating the pass
- Edit the price slightly
Roblox servers cache marketplace data to reduce API load. That means new passes can take a few minutes to propagate across servers.
If nothing shows after 10 minutes:
- Close Roblox entirely
- Restart your device
- Join PLS DONATE again
This simple reset solves more issues than most players expect.
5. Recreate the Gamepass (When All Else Fails)
If your pass still won’t show, corruption or sync errors may be involved. While rare, it does happen.
Instead of endlessly troubleshooting, try this:
- Delete the non-working pass (if unused).
- Create a new one with a slightly different name.
- Set a price immediately.
- Wait 2–3 minutes before entering PLS DONATE.
Make sure:
- You upload a thumbnail image
- The pass is marked for sale
- You are the owner of the associated experience
In 2026, Roblox’s backend occasionally flags passes created too quickly or without thumbnails. Adding an image appears to improve synchronization reliability.
Additional Troubleshooting Tips
If the core five fixes didn’t work, consider these extra checks:
- Group Ownership: If the experience is owned by a group, ensure you have permission to create and monetize passes.
- Parental Controls: Some accounts have commerce restrictions enabled.
- Under Review: Rarely, a gamepass may be under moderation review.
- Price Glitch: Avoid pricing at 0 Robux—free passes may not display.
Also verify that you’re not confusing developer products with gamepasses. PLS DONATE supports gamepasses, not developer products.
Common Myths About PLS DONATE Display Issues
Myth 1: “The game is broken.”
Reality: In most cases, it’s a permission or visibility issue.
Myth 2: “You need Premium.”
Reality: Roblox Premium is not required to display gamepasses.
Myth 3: “It works instantly.”
Reality: Marketplace sync can take several minutes.
Understanding how Roblox’s backend interacts with PLS DONATE helps prevent panic when something doesn’t immediately appear.
How to Prevent Display Issues in the Future
Prevention is much easier than troubleshooting.
- Create passes directly from the correct experience.
- Add thumbnails before publishing.
- Set pricing immediately.
- Keep inventory temporarily public during setup.
- Wait a few minutes before testing.
If you plan to create multiple donation tiers (5, 10, 50, 100 Robux), publish them all first, then join the game after all are fully saved.
Final Thoughts
When PLS DONATE isn’t showing your gamepasses, it can feel like the entire system is broken. But in reality, about 80% of issues stem from just five causes: privacy settings, incorrect experience linking, pass visibility, server caching, or marketplace sync delay.
By methodically checking each of the fixes outlined above, you can usually resolve the problem within 10–15 minutes. The key is not to rush and not to recreate passes repeatedly without verifying visibility settings first.
Roblox in 2026 runs on more complex backend systems than ever before, which means occasional delays are normal. Patience combined with accurate setup almost always solves the issue.
Once your passes appear and your booth starts attracting donations again, you’ll be glad you followed these steps instead of assuming the worst.
Remember: Most display issues aren’t permanent glitches—they’re small configuration errors that are easy to fix once you know where to look.
