I wanted to get my mom YouTube Premium for her birthday but don’t want to pay the ridiculous annual price for my country (especially since she mostly just watches YouTube shorts). She uses an iPhone so trying to get adblocker would be too much of a hassle, especially if it stops working. She won’t be able to figure out how to fix it.

I’ve tried using account sellers in the past but the last one I used had some issues and now I can’t add my mom’s YouTube account to a different family account for another year.

I am able to use a VPN to buy premium for cheaper from a different country but they require a credit card for that country. Is it possible to get a virtual debit/credit card for different countries?

    Another alternative could be Google Play gift cards from cheaper countries. You can buy Youtube Premium through it. Look up their currencies and search gift cards with that currency.

    Isn’t Jailbreaking a thing anymore for iPhones? In the past when I had one, I had it all the time.

    Correct me if this changed but you can pay for premium in India with a regular card, you just have to provide fake billing address. I’ve been doing this for years now so maybe I’m grandfathered into some old payment scheme but I’m fairly sure my gf did this recently too when she had to switch from Argentina.
