Hi guys i have noticed that samsung pay is showing me offers not from my country and i cant seem to change my location. Plz note i dont know if this changes anything but i did buy my phone from amazon US. 
I really need to change geo-location of the store

Hi there. Samsung devices are calibrated to work differently in different regions. Due to this reason you will not be able to change the region. The only solution to this problem is to re- flash for device. This is a risky process for you to do by yourself and I am not sure if the Samsung service center will do this for you. if the Samsung pay functions work properly for you, I advice you to leave it as it is. Hope this helps..

ohh.. thats bad. I get great offers on my Samsung Pay too. The app is region specific. Have you tried allowing the location permissions for the app and finding offers based on your location?

Please try this and let me know if this works. If it works , you will receive vouchers and deals specific to your location.
