How to Choose a Roblox Script Whitelist Service

Picking between Luarmor, Junkie, Pandauth and LuaProtect? Here's a checklist of what actually matters, with no spin.

If you're about to put a Roblox script behind a whitelist, you've probably noticed there are several services doing roughly the same job. Luarmor, Junkie, Pandauth, us, and a handful of smaller ones. They all say they're the best. They can't all be.

We run one of them, so take this with the right amount of salt. But a checklist doesn't depend on who wrote it, so here's the one we'd use if we were choosing for the first time.

1. What do you need to protect against?

Start here, because it decides everything else.

  • You mostly want to know who's running your script. Any decent whitelist does this.
  • You're selling a paid script and leaks would hurt. You care about device locking, watermarking and strong obfuscation.
  • You run free keys for ad revenue. You care about the checkpoint builder and which ad networks are supported.

Don't pay for features aimed at a problem you don't have.

2. How does it handle obfuscation?

Some services bundle an obfuscator, some expect you to bring your own, and some resell a third-party one.

Things to check:

  • Is it VM-based, or just text scrambling? A VM rebuilds your script as data plus an interpreter, while text scrambling only renames and rearranges your source.
  • Does it strip line information, so errors don't point back at your code?
  • Is there a way to trade speed for protection? Scripts that run every frame behave differently from menu code.

We explain what to look for in more detail in our post on how VM obfuscation works.

3. How are keys tied to devices?

Ask:

  • Does a key lock to a hardware ID on first use?
  • Can buyers reset it themselves, or do they have to message you?
  • Is there a cooldown so resets can't be abused?

Self-service resets sound like a small thing. They aren't. If you sell more than a handful of keys, the support time adds up quickly.

4. What happens when you ban someone?

This one catches people out. Some systems only block the next time a player launches the script. Better ones kick them from their current session straight away.

Also check what you can ban by: device, IP, Roblox account. Device bans are the ones that survive a new account.

5. How much can you see?

A whitelist you can't observe is half a whitelist. Useful things to have:

  • Live sessions, meaning who's running the script right now.
  • Player profiles with their devices and history.
  • Error reports from players' games, so you fix bugs before they complain.

If you can't answer "how many people ran my script today", you'll find out about problems from angry messages instead.

6. Does it fit how you actually sell?

Look at the extras that match your workflow:

  • A Discord bot so buyers can redeem keys and get roles on their own.
  • Payment or ad-network integrations you actually use.
  • Team access, if more than one person helps you run things.
  • An API, if you automate anything.

7. What does it cost, really?

Read the limits, not just the headline price. Check how many scripts you can have, how many players it supports, and what's behind the paid tier. A free plan with a script limit you'll hit in a week isn't free for long.

Also look at what happens if you leave. Can you export your keys and data? Moving between services is painful enough already.

8. Is anyone maintaining it?

Roblox changes. Executors change. A service that worked last year can quietly stop working. Look at how recently the product was updated, whether there's a changelog, and whether support answers.

How we compare

We've put side-by-side tables on our comparison pages, so you can see the actual feature differences instead of taking our word:

Some of those services are better in places, and a good one might be the right pick for you. If you're not sure, the best test is the cheapest one: put a small script on two of them for a week and see which one you'd rather open every morning.

LuaProtect has a free plan with the obfuscator, key system, Discord bot and bans included (capped at 4 scripts), so trying it costs you nothing but an evening.
