Detection
A family’s policy treats the monthly limit as the sole spending rule while gift cards are possible.
Fix (technical)
Roblox explicitly states that monthly spending limits do not affect gift-card redemptions. Keep gift cards in the household spending policy and verify the current Roblox help page. [roblox-monthly-spending]
Fix (relational)
Agree whether gift cards are a gift, a budget category or require a check-in before redemption.
Residual risk
A policy cannot undo a gift card already purchased or given.
