YouTube Premium INR ₹129/Month via YouTube India (VPN Required, Single ~$2.48/Month, Family ~$3.64, Student ~$1.52)

5290

Too good a deal not to repost for those unaware you can access YouTube premium at a fraction of the price it normally costs. The stronger exchange rate means even lower monthly rates than last time. Also doweyy suggested in a previous post you can get it even cheaper as a student (certainly worth a shot). Instructions are a direct copy paste from previous deals so kudos to the OPs. Stay safe, and enjoy :)


Google has finally launched YouTube Premium in India for INR 129 and Family Membership for INR 189.
Comes with YouTube Music, No Ads in YouTube as well as Google Play Music.

https://india.googleblog.com/2019/03/introducing-youtube-mus…

Youtube Premium will give you access to -
• Ad-free videos: Watch videos without interruptions.
• Save offline: Save videos and songs on your mobile device to watch offline.
• Background play: Keep videos or music playing when using other apps or when your screen’s off.
• Audio mode: Listen to audio only on the YouTube Music app.
• Google Play Music Subscription (when available in your country) is included at no additional cost.

Current pricing is $14.99 per month in Australia. This workaround should work for new and existing customers.

Again, the trick to making this work is having access to a VPN service. If you're signed up to one, then the rest of the process should be fairly simple.

Instructions -
1. Connect a VPN to the server India (I connected to Bangalore).
2. Click on Paid Memberships (youtube.com), then click on Learn more.
https://www.youtube.com/paid_memberships

Enter Indian address and pay by credit card.
Termination takes place under this link (music.youtube.com)
Example of an address in India:

India
Name: Blank
Address line: My Place
Town/City: Mumbai
Postcode: 400070
State: Maharashtra

    We’re reaching out to inform you that by December 31, 2021, Google must delete your existing debit or credit card information due to new Reserve Bank of India card storage regulations. If you still plan to use your Visa card ending in **** for transactions with Google Drive or other Google products, how you use your card may change.

    To continue using the same Visa card to make payments with Google after December 31, 2021, without having to re-enter your card details, you must use it to make at least one purchase or manual payment before the end of 2021. If you don't do so, your card will no longer appear in your account, and you’ll have to re-enter your card details to use it again.

    Learn more about this regulatory change

    Sincerely,
    The Google Payments team

    I just swapped over my current Australian Youtube subscription, following a posters comments above. It was already setup as a Family Plan with members. Was dead simple, nothing broke and no need for a second gmail or google pay account.

    1. Went to youtube, manage subscriptions, selected deactivate subscription but changed to pause.
    2. Closed chrome. Opened Tunnelbear VPN, clicked India
    3. Opened chrome, went back into youtube, manage subscriptions.
    4. Scrolling down there was an option to buy a family plan for something like 189 rupees per month. Selected that.
    5. Went to a payment screen, entered my Australian credit card details, entered a made up Indian address.
    6. Got some thing about Indian RBA, just had to re-enter my CVC number.
    7. Got a welcome email
