Argentina renewal success with US price $4.29 (using Bluestacks)

Like others my payment card (Revolut) doesn’t match billing country (Argentina). There was other post who tried Samsung phone + VPN to Argentina and it showed him $4.29 and he successfully subscribed. Using Android Studio Emulator - no matter how hard I tried it has always showed Argentinian currency ARS3699. Today Bluestack for Apple Silicon was released so I tried. And it worked!

I use system VPN TunnelBear (free). Installed Youtube app on the Bluestack. All payment methods got initially blocked due to suspicious activity on account and purchase weren’t able to complete. The trick was to disconnect from VPN (at the last step when you enter password to confirm purchase), let the connection timeout and re-connect VPN again.

I added VISA card as a backup which is not even allowed in Argentina.

PS: If you don’t see $4.29 → don’t try. It won’t work.



I did the iOS turkey gift card hack today and it worked like a charm.

Which card did you use for payment when using this method? The same Revolut card? or something else?

Does this work with existing accounts? Can I add billing for Argentina from Ukraine?

I tried but it failed. What do you mean with disconnect and let it time out and reconnect vpn again? When I disconnect the vpn it doesn’t time out?

I have a feeling YouTube is probably reading all these threads and when they see loopholes people are using, they’ll close them as quick as they can

Vpn usted in the emulator or the PC app?

I’m trying to sign up and I’m using Bluestacks on PC. Using NordVPN and TunnelBear. Both show US prices. How come?

Can you describe how

Revolut card that was added to the account using google payments (payments.google.com) page last month.

Yes, I used existing account that has cancelled subscription.

Did you see the price? If not, no need to fiddle with VPN.

I don’t think so. They are notoriously bad at customer service. Not even replying to messages/issues (e.g. banned accounts etc). Using loopholes like VPN deters 90% of people. This solution requires computer skills so I would say it deters 99% of people. It’s peanuts for them to hunt with engineers that have $$$ salary. Complete waste of resources.

I use system VPN TunnelBear (free).

Can send family invite if you got argentinian payment profile
