Whether you're trying to redeem a Roblox gift card and running into an issue that says it's not available in your country, or your account's Robux page has been changed to a different currency without your consent, attempting to correct these issues can feel impossible and confusing. Previously, choosing the country in which your account "resides" was an option found in your Account Settings—now, however, this option has been removed by Roblox entirely and players are left wondering how their issues related to location-based currency settings can be fixed.
How to update your account's default currency on Roblox
As mentioned above, the easy-to-use Country feature (which was previously located in the Personal section with Language, Gender, Birthday, and Theme) has been removed from Roblox's Account Settings page. It's unknown why this setting was changed, but it's clearly upset a great deal of players, especially those whose default currency on their account is incorrect and, for whatever reason, doesn't match the currency used in their country.
Normally, the currency displayed on the Robux page should be the physical currency used in your country—for example, USD will display for those in the United States, EUR will display for those in Europe, JPY will display for those in Japan, MXN will display for those in Mexico, INR will display for those in India, and so on and so on. There have been situations, though, where the displayed currency changes, and no longer reflects the correct currency for your country.

When this happens, you can try using a VPN to manually change the location in which your account is existing in/broadcasting from, but this isn't a guaranteed fix, and most VPNs cost money. You could also try clearing your device's cache, and removing/redownloading the Roblox app, but, in all honesty, the only real fix for this situation is contacting Roblox support and receiving information directly from an IT support team member. This process can be long and grueling, but it may, unfortunately, be your only real hope.
End
That's it for this quick guide on how to change your account's default currency on Roblox. I wish I had a definitive and easy answer to give you, but Roblox unfortunately took that away! Hopefully, if you're struggling with this issue, you can have it fixed as quickly and efficiently as possible.
