The Division PC Gold Edition 159.99 BRL (~ $57.26 AUD) Via Brazillian Uplay Store (Requires VPN)

400

I personally used this method to grab the Gold edition (season pass and bonus gear) for The Division through the official Brazilian Uplay store and confirm it works and was playing it last night.

I understand most people who are interested probably already bought the game via other methods, but this was definatley the cheapest Gold Ed I could find and I wanted to confirm this worked before posting.

This will require the use of a VPN or equivalent service/application as well as generating fake details for the purposes of passing the Social Security No (SSN/CPF) checks that the Brazilian Uplay store requires. I've seen similar methods posted for other releases so thought it would be of use to others.

Steps as follows:
1. Download and install/activate a VPN application. I use Tunnelbear (www.tunnelbear.com) and it works fine and has browser extensions available to make it even easier to use.
2. Turn on the VPN and set to Brazil as your country, then visit http://shop.ubi.com/ - it should direct you to the Brazilian store (use browser translation to read it in English)
3. Add The Division Gold ed to your cart for BRL 159.99 (standard ed is BRL 129.99 so not really worthwhile for the difference you pay)
4. Proceed to checkout, log in with any appropriate Uplay account details (this will tie in with your actual Uplay local account and how the game will be delivered/downloaded)
5. When prompted to fill out your personal details and enter a SSN/CPF no, you will need to make use of a site like this: http://www.fakeaddressgenerator.com/World/Brazil_address_gen…
6. Continue through the checkout process, proceed to pay via Paypal and finalise your purchase. I used my 28 Degrees card to avoid conversion fees.

I left the VPN on until after the Paypal process, I turned it off before Paypal checkout and it failed (as it reverts you back to the non-Brazil site).

You should then receive an email to your registered Uplay email address confirming your purchase (may need to translate it to English), and I received my key overnight in an email and automatically added to my Uplay account, but it may be quicker now that the game is actually released.

Hope this helps others score a great price on a great game!

    Used this method too. Confirmed that it works.

  • Isn't it risky inputting your login details with a free VPN?

  • Great price. I have already purchase my copy so guess that the price of not being patient :-)

    Was worth it tho, awesome game and I played it allllllllllll night.

    Can anyone confirm the price of the season pass?

    • Think EB/JB have been advertising it for $60!

      Would be best to look around for a CD key version or maybe this method may work if the Brazil store add a Season pass option.

      • Hoping for a cheap key

      • Pretty sure that was a deal for the console version wasn't it?

  • +1

    Tried this just now and couldn't get it to go. Tried both PayPal and credit card, but both times ended up with "Falha na autorização do pagamento" - "Authorization failed payment".

    Using IronSocket VPN (Sao Paulo - S1) via OpenVPN :(

    • +1

      There might be a bit of an issue with the VPN being on or off during the Paypal payment part.

      In the past for similar purchases, it was advised to turn off the VPN for the paypal transaction to go through. But this did not work for me and I left it on the whole time.

      Maybe give Tunnelbear a go, as I said it's free and if you want something lightweight, just use the browser extension version.

      • +1

        Tried disconnecting the VPN at the PayPal step but same result. Trying Tunnelbear now. Thanks!

        E: For whatever reason, my fancy paid Iron Socket account didn't work but the free Tunnebear thing did! Thanks mate!

        • +1

          Nice - glad it worked out for you in the end :)

  • Dam, wishing I was getting this on PC now.

    Stupid console version is gonna cost me $68 without DLC….

  • @rysith, You mentioned that they emailed you the key? Does that mean I can add it to my normal Uplay account, or am I forever stuck using a Brazilian account?

    • So I received 2 emails: 1st was confirmation my order was received (automated), 2nd was notification that the key had been added to my Uplay (local) account but also provided with the serial number in that email.

      I then opened my Uplay account (that I specified in the purchase process) and the game was ready to preload/install.

      • Almost sounds too good to be true :p I've had steam remove VPN purchased keys in the past. I just don't want Ubisoft to do the same thing

      • Hmm, I don't get the option to pay with PayPal. It just wants credit card details

  • silly question - is it vpn required only to buy? or do you need it running to play to?

    • Its only required for puchasing, since some games don't have region lock while playing, you only need to do this once and you will be able to play the game, be advised,you should always change your paypal password after purchasing something via vpn

  • Anyone tried this to just add the season pass to your account? Did it work and how much?

  • didnt work for me. tired many times. logged onto paypal etc still didnt work
    didnt want to put my credit card number in over the VPN.
    I kept getting "Authorization failed payment".

    :(

    • Did you try with Tunnelbear or some other VPN?

      • yeah used tunnelbear, followed all the steps that you had in the post.
        oh hang on….
        i didnt put my details in for billing address etc. i used all the details from the fake address generator, are you meant to use your personal details and just put the SSN/CPF number from that site?

        • Nah I used all the details from the generator to populate the forms, only true details I used were my Uplay account and payment.

        • +3

          Ok it worked. 2 things I did.
          1. logged onto my account and set the address of where i am currently living (not sure if that makes a difference)
          2. used chrome incognito mode.

        • @Yoshi900:

          Great, good result :)

        • @Yoshi900: thanks mate, I was trying for ages including another browser. Incognito mode worked.

        • +1

          @Yoshi900: Which details did you change? Your paypal details? Or Uplay

  • How long does it take to receive the key after payment?

    • Mine was a few hours later, but that was still in the preload timeframe rather than now the game has been released.

    • I have not received an email with the serial code however in Uplay the game is ready for download :)

      • How long did it take for the game to pop up in your library? I have been waiting 30mins already.

        • Maybe 30-45 mins.
          i did screen shot my serial after the purchase went through correctly.

      • So it came through pretty quick for you then?

        • I didn't get the second email, but the game appeared in my Uplay after about 3 hours.

  • Thanks for this. Just bought season pass for $29AU.

    Confirmed it works and key automatically applied to my uplay account.

    • So Season Pass on it's own is $29 AU?

      • Yes. I wish I had known about this before I bought the base game elsewhere :)

  • ive manage to purchase the game using tunnelbear browser extension but after an hour and half they refunded my purchase, I have no idea why. Im using paypal money and some money from my debit card, could that be a problem?

    • I just used my credit card (28 Degrees card) linked to my paypal account to do it in one purchase amount.

      There may be an issue with the different currencies being used or your debit card being different than a credit card for whatever foreign checks they apply.

  • Used the method op listed, worked fine for me and now awaiting for key :D.

    Thanks OP!

    • Let us know how you go please. :)

      • I got refunded by uplay… =(

        • edit: After 4 attempts which all was failed attempts, I somehow got a ubisoft email this morning with confirmation of game in my uplay library. Don't know what happened there but I guess it worked.

        • Thanks for the follow up :) I'm still not sure if buying this game will be worth it for me or not. Probably not because my mates don't seem to be playing.

  • My paypal is asking me to verify since its unfamiliar with where I'm logging on from.

    Picked send sms but nothing happening when I click continue, anyone else getting this?

    EDIT: Nvm seems like the Tunnelbear chrome extension is just a lot slower than using the actual windows client.

    Although my final price was $59.50

  • Likewise, just used the method used (via my own VPN) and it worked!
    Just awaiting the key also! Will edit with how long it took for me to get the key

  • +1

    Oh just found the email with my keys in my Gmail spam, auto filtered there because it was in Portuguese. Looks like I received the key 55 minutes after I placed my order.

  • I got mine to work finally. I'm using Chrome on OS X. I had to install Tunnelbear first as the extension refused to work in incognito mode. Everything else was smooth sailing. Thanks OP :)

  • +1

    If the Paypal checkbox isn't loading for you, try this method.

    On the payment information page, right-click the paypal text and inspect element.
    Just above the highlighted paypal code it should show this:

    '<input type="radio" name="paymentMethodID" id="PayPalExpress" value="190000">'

    Right-click it and select the option ':active'. I just tried it and I was able to pay with Paypal.

    • Thanks so much, this fixed my problem instantly. Just finished the purchase and am downloading it now !

  • +1

    I am getting no emails from Paypal saying "Thank you for your purchase" so I will try again, Hopefully I dont end up paying for it twice lol

    • I got it the second time I ordered.

  • Mine keeps failing after Paypal…

    • +1

      Keep your vpn on throughout the whole process. Turning it off even for a second will give you a failure to authorize payment.

  • Just waiting on key/activation email, 45 minutes and counting so far. The ubishop.support email says this can take up to 48 hours.

  • After many attempts, paypals locked me out and has asked me to confirm my identity which may take up to 2 business days.. great. Any huge risk involved with paying direct with my 28 degree mastercard?

  • When putting in the fake address, should I use fake name as well or is my real name okay?

  • Finally got it working through paypal. Had Incognito mode and also had to pay using the default paypal method and couldn't change to my Citibank card.

    Here's hoping the key comes through.

    • How did you get to the paypal site? Theres no way for me to choose to pay with it, only an 'expand' button which does nothing…

      • Click the details button next to Paypal then click the button on the bottom. Feel free to keep asking questions. I was stuck there for ages and it was frustrating when people didn't provide answers.

      • Usually that means it just hasn't loaded completely. When its loaded correctly it will have a checkbox next to each payment method

  • 4 hours and no key… I wonder if the party is over.
    **Just received a message that ubi has cancelled the order. Paypal has just been refunded aswell. All over me thinks.

  • Also just over $57AUD through GamesPlanet, via Dealzon refference: https://uk.gamesplanet.com/game/tom-clancy-s-the-division-up…

        I'm an idiot, didn't see Gold in the title. :P

  • Yep just got a refund. I knew it was too good to be true.

    • +1

      Worked fine for me just now. Used free Tunnelbear app via Android phone, Chrome in incognito mode and followed OP's instructions (opened Paypal in Chrome window rather than app). Paid for with 28 Deg M/card linked to Paypal. Took 2 or 3 minutes to receive both purchase emails (Ubisoft email in Gmail spam) and was linked to Uplay account after 10 minutes. Downloading the 32GB as we speak….

      • I just tried again and used your method by using the chrome browser incognito mode and it works!Thank you! I think the other issue I had before was that I used my email address as my Uplay log in details instead of my actual "Uplay username" and I received game instantly after payment! Cheers mate!

  • Worked for me, using PIA, Thanks OP

  • Email finally came through for me, but by then I already bought another one. If anyone wants a copy of the game/code PM me.

    • how do I pm you lol

      • Doesn't look like private messaging is enabled

      • Had someone grabbed it off me already sorry

  • Ordered late last night and just received a key through email.

    • Did you pay with PayPal? Mine got refunded :(

      • +1

        When it asks you to login with your uplay account details during the checkout process. Make sure you use your actual username and correct password associated with your uplay account. I had a similar issue, where mine got refunded because I used my email address instead of my actual uplay username. I received the game instantly after I payed with PayPal the second time around.

        • How did you sign in with your username? They only allow me to sign in using my email.

        • @Bomba:
          I can't remember exactly where but there are two options after you start the checkout process:
          Also make sure you are translating the page to English using chromecast

          (I already have an account:)
          username:john123
          password:johnspassword

          or

          (create a uplay account)
          which asks you create an account with an email, etc..

          @silentAggressor:

          (I already have an account:)
          username:john123 <—- Have to use an email. I can't use my username
          password:johnspassword

      • Yes I did.

  • How long does it normally take for you to receive it?

  • Been waiting over 12 hours for mine even though I got payment confirmation instantly. Really sucks cause I still have to download 40GB after all this waiting.

    • Well mine just came back as unable to process, so damn annoying. I'm gonna try again with my username login instead of email.

  • I just got mine refunded few hours after it was confirmed. I used username, not email :(

  • I was successful about an hour ago using Chrome…
    1. Set Hola to Brazil
    2. Clicked on OP's link and placed game in cart
    3. Logged in with real Uplay username and password
    4. Filled in details (all fake from generator)
    5.Paid using Paypal using 28 degrees, no issues or problems, works out to be $57.10 AUD

    The game appeared instantly in my Uplay account, no need to check any emails , thanks OP

  • Worked for me thanks :)

  • I got refunded for the 4th time in a row. I tried every method. Don't think we can use a debit visa to pay. Sucks :(

    • +1

      Nope it just worked for me using my debit card. I'll post my own guide in a fresh comment for you

    So, I just got it to work after being denied twice earlier today. My step-by-step involves a different tunnel to any of the previously mentioned ones.

    1. I downloaded the SoftEther VPN client, which is an academically developed client and highly unlikely to steal/sell data.

    Guide and download link here: http://www.vpngate.net/en/howto_softether.aspx#windows
    (when you pick a VPN server, pick the Brazilian server with the most uptime)

    1. I clicked the OP's link, and signed into my real Uplay account before I added the game to cart
    2. I added the game to cart
    3. I went through the shopping cart process using the fake name generator linked by the OP
    4. I opted to pay via paypal, using my paypal account, and using my instant bank transfer payment option (which is backed by a debit card)

    Instantly received my code in my email

    • The issue for me is the tunnelbear chrome extension. When I used the vpn you recommended everything worked smoothly and I received the key straight away.
      Thanks fleetfeather!

    • I am unable to see any Brazilian servers on the list, any advice? Thanks :)

      • I double clicked 'VPN Gate Public VPN Relay Servers' then I sorted it by regions.
        I found Brazil near the bottom.

        • strange, I don't get a brazil server at all :(
