The Roblox economy is going global, as users can now set regional pricing


Roblox has adjusted its payment system to allow users to set regional pricing. This automatically adjusts the cost of in-game items to match the local economy of the purchaser.

The company says this will make it easier for active community members to "better adapt to local market conditions and maximize earnings." The software will not only automatically determine optimal local prices for items, but will update costs periodically as the global economy shifts. Roblox says the feature has increased earnings by around four percent for eligible creators, typically because the price was lowered but more units were sold.
