MOD: We have received a take down request from Crunchyroll, claiming circumvent their regional pricing is against their terms of use/service.

For fans of Anime!

Also Crunchyroll Premium Fan Level Subscription: AR$99/Month (~A$1.38)

Not much to say, it's pretty straightforward. Firstly you need to get a hold of a VPN and connect to the Argentinian servers. Click on https://www.crunchyroll.com/premium_pick_plan?membership=fan and it should show these prices in AR$. Add a payment method (I've noticed Paypal doesn't really work, but adding a credit/debit card works), and purchase the membership at the AR$ prices. The VPN is only required for signing up, not for viewing. When entering your card details, select Australia, not Argentina, and enter details as usual.

If you get Unauthorised Request error, try adding your card details in your profile settings first then clicking in link above.

I have noticed that if you have a membership already, say a Fan membership, it won't upgrade. I had to create a new account and this time round selected the Mega Fan Annual and it worked using my debit card.

Original prices are:

Fan $7.99
Mega Fan $9.99 (Same as Fan with the ability to stream on 4 simultaneous devices instead of just one, and ability to download for offline viewing on mobile apps)
Annual Mega Fan $99.99

Thanks to u/GoonSack69 posting this in the comments a while back, and thought it deserved its own deal.

As above, if you're going to sign up, I'd recommend the yearly, as upgrading the account seems to be problematic unless you create a new account. If you’ve had premium before, you may get a payment error. Create a new account to solve the error.

    Isn't library tied to billing country?

    • Psygnosis on 04/10/2021 - 10:13

      I'm using it perfectly fine without a VPN in Sydney. You just need the VPN to purchase, then you can turn it off.

      • askbargain on 04/10/2021 - 10:13

        I mean that you're accessing Argentina's library and not Australia's, and so might not have the same content.

        • Psygnosis on 04/10/2021 - 10:22

          I'm not sure, maybe someone else may know. I haven't had an issue and am able to access a ton of content. There's no section of the site that distinguishes whether I'm in Argentina or Australia, so I assume it's based off my IP. You can always sign up and use the trial.

        • Ausdave on 04/10/2021 - 10:22

          That's not true.

          Crunchyroll content changes depending what country you're in.

          For example, if you visit the website with an Australian ip address it will show Australian content.

          Been the case for years

            @Ausdave: Thanks for confirming.

            • Ausdave on 04/10/2021 - 10:35

              @askbargain: No worries.

              I just tried this Argentina VPN thing, it worked!!

              Just create a new account if you haven't done so already, and a bank card.

              I didn't try PayPal, but based on my past experiences doing VPN work arounds I suggest using a bank card instead.

              • alanyeni on 09/10/2021 - 22:41

                  @alanyeni: Change the country to Australia, that will do the trick.

    do you know will this works to extend my existing sub by an extra year?

    • Psygnosis on 04/10/2021 - 10:16

      As mentioned, I had a subscription previously that I bought for $1.36, and wanted to upgrade to Annual Mega Fan and it didn't work. I had to create a new account, select the Annual and then it worked. You can try and let us know your results.

      • kenneth88 on 04/10/2021 - 10:33

        Don't think it works for existing mega fan:-

        No Stress, You're Already Premium
        You're all set and signed in. Enjoy your Crunchyroll Premium perks.

        and if I click on Go Premium again:-

        Your subscription starts immediately and you will be charged ARS0.00 every 14 days until cancellation. You can cancel by logging into your account at crunchyroll.com.

        • Psygnosis on 04/10/2021 - 10:38

          When you're on the account settings page, under Premium Membership Status, does it show ARS for the next billing cycle? Maybe try cancelling your membership and resubmitting with the above method? If it doesn't work, I know it's a hassle, but a new account will solve it.

  • mangobango on 04/10/2021 - 10:33

    Wow nice, otherwise $100 AUD for the year.

    Thanks OP, good find!

  • mangobango on 04/10/2021 - 10:44

    Hm I tried using both UBank and Commbank cards, both say "Failed to check out. Please look over your credit card info and resubmit."

    Anyone know how to get past it?

    I did change my country to Australia in the checkout and put a AU post code, could that be it?

    • Psygnosis on 04/10/2021 - 10:48

      No that should be fine, but if you had a previous premium membership, you may be able to solve it by creating a new account and trying again.

      • mangobango on 04/10/2021 - 10:59

        Nah still not working, though I now hit the "try premium for free" and it says my next billing date will be in 2 weeks for AR$1,250? Hopefully it works then.

        • Psygnosis on 04/10/2021 - 11:03
          +1

          So you were already a premium member previously? That's why it's not working. You should create a new account.

          Without a VPN, in the Premium Membership Status, does it still show AR$1250 for next billing cycle? If so, then it worked.

          Mine shows

          Membership Type: Mega Fan MemberPremium Member
          Billing Amount: AR$ 1,250.00
          Billing Cycle: 12 Months
          Next Billing Date: Oct 3, 2022

          Under it it should show that your Mega Fan is active.

          • mangobango on 04/10/2021 - 11:15

            @Psygnosis: Nah I didn't have a premium membership, but pressed to start a free trial after I had the card issues. Now it says the below on my account.

            Guess we'll wait and see in two weeks!

            Also, I made a brand new account and still had the same issues unfortunately, but we'll see.

              @mangobango: Maybe your bank is blocking it? You DO NOT need a new account for this - I subscribed fine on my expired premium account that was previously on AUD billing, and then Mexico billing (MEX 859/year so still much more expensive than this deal) with my Coles Mastercard that was already registered on the account too.

              • mangobango on 04/10/2021 - 14:08

                @khell: Possibly? I got the same error for both my bank cards so not sure (and I noticed someone below did Commbank + NordVPN which I tried too and got the error).

                I did set the thing to being overseas in Argentina in this time frame but oh well.

                Hopefully it renews at the end of the two weeks, if not then no biggie.

        • dennis1 on 04/10/2021 - 11:12

          Hi I also got this, but if you look in Membership status in account settings, it shows that it actually worked and did check out.

          • mangobango on 04/10/2021 - 11:16

            @dennis1: What does it say for your next billing cycle on your account page? Mine says it'll bill me in 2 weeks (after my free trial ends).

      • Asaboy on 04/10/2021 - 11:12

        Mine has the same problem. Tried both Westpac and Commbank. This is a new account too.

        • mangobango on 04/10/2021 - 11:17

          Sorry you're dealing with that but a bit glad it's not just me!

          For what it's worth, I followed all the steps and it didn't work, but then hit the "try premium for free" button, so now I have premium and it says the next billing cycle is in a couple of weeks for the full 12 months.

          Worth a try?
