We consider generalized Nash equilibrium (GNE) problems in games with strongly monotone pseudo-gradients and jointly linear coupling constraints. We establish the convergence rate of a payoff-based approach intended to learn a variational GNE (v-GNE) in such games. While convergent algorithms have recently been proposed in this setting given full or partial information of the gradients, rate of convergence in the payoff-based information setting has been an open problem. Leveraging properties of a game extended from the original one by a dual player, we establish a convergence rate of $O(\frac{ 1}{ t^{ 4/7}})$ to a v-GNE of the game.
