Stop Paying “First World” Prices
Let’s be real: Subscriptions are draining your bank account.
- YouTube Premium: $13.99/month.
- Netflix (4K): $22.99/month.
- New AAA Games: $70.00.
It adds up to hundreds of dollars a year. But did you know that the exact same service costs $2.00/month in other countries?
It’s called “Regional Pricing.” Companies charge less in countries with lower purchasing power (like Turkey, India, or Argentina).
In 2026, you don’t need to move to Istanbul to get these prices. You just need to trick the internet into thinking you are already there. Here is how to use NordVPN to save over $500 this year.
The Math: What You Can Save
We tested this yesterday using NordVPN. Here is the price difference for the exact same digital products:
| Service | US Price | Turkey/India Price (via VPN) | Your Savings |
| YouTube Premium | $13.99/mo | ~$1.80/mo | $146 / year |
| Netflix (Premium) | $22.99/mo | ~$5.50/mo | $209 / year |
| Steam AAA Games | $69.99 | ~$35.00 | 50% OFF |
The ROI:
A 2-year plan for NordVPN costs about $80.

By switching just one subscription to a cheaper region, the VPN pays for itself in 3 months. Everything after that is pure profit in your pocket.
Step-by-Step: The YouTube Premium Trick
Disclaimer: This is for educational purposes. Always check the Terms of Service of the platform.
This is the easiest way to stop seeing ads without hurting creators (Premium still pays them!).
- Get NordVPN: You need a premium VPN. Free VPNs are detected and blocked by Google instantly. [INSERT AFFILIATE LINK: “Get the NordVPN Deal Here”]
- Connect to “Turkey” or “Ukraine”: Open the NordVPN map and click on one of these countries.
- Open an Incognito Window: Go to YouTube.com/Premium.
- Look at the Price: You should see the currency change from USD ($) to TRY (₺) or UAH (₴).
- Checkout: Use a credit card that doesn’t have foreign transaction fees (or use a virtual card like Revolut/Wise).
- Disconnect: Once you are subscribed, you don’t need the VPN to watch. You only need it for the initial purchase. Your account is now “Premium” worldwide.
The “Steam” Regional Trick
Steam creates “Regional Accounts.” If you create a new Steam account while connected to a NordVPN server in Argentina or Turkey, you access the local store.
- Indie Games: Often cost $5 instead of $20.
- DLCs: Massive discounts.
Note: Steam is stricter than YouTube. You may need to buy a local Gift Card (from sites like G2A or Eneba) to make the first purchase.
Why NordVPN is Essential for This
You might ask: “Can I use a free proxy?”
No.
Streaming services like Netflix and Google have sophisticated “VPN Blockers.” They know the IP addresses of all the free VPNs.
NordVPN uses “Obfuscated Servers” that hide the fact that you are using a VPN at all. It looks like regular residential traffic, allowing you to bypass the checkout restrictions smoothly.
Beat the System
Corporations use “Dynamic Pricing” to charge you the maximum amount they think you will pay.
Why not use technology to pay the minimum?
For the price of a cup of coffee, NordVPN unlocks the “Global Economy” for you. Stop overpaying for digital goods in 2026.
