App marks a price paid in the iPhone app (App Store), which is often higher than the vendor's own website; every other price is the vendor's website or its own store. Each product is compared country to country in one channel only.

  1. Pick the country

    Russia. Check the product's own page first: for some products another country is cheaper still.

  2. Connect a VPN to Russia

    A storefront reads your country from your IP address when you sign up. Connect to a server in Russia before you open the signup page.

  3. Pay with a card the checkout accepts

    Many regional checkouts take a foreign card; when they refuse it, a multi-currency card that pays in the local currency usually passes, without a conversion fee eating the saving.

  4. Sign up and keep the region

    Complete the signup as normal. The regional rate usually stays with the account for as long as you remain subscribed — the VPN is needed at signup, not every day. Full guide, with what can go wrong.

Before you do this: Paying a different region’s price usually breaks the vendor’s terms of service, and some checkouts verify a local billing address. Read the terms before you switch. Catalogues and features can differ by country, so confirm the price on the official checkout first. What breaking the terms means in practice.

The two buttons are affiliate links: if you sign up through them the site earns a commission, at no extra cost to you. They are the only paid links on the page and never affect which country ranks where. Full disclosure.
