Hi guys,

Please go easy on me as this is my first post.

I was looking through OZB for a cheap NBA League Pass option for the upcoming season and noticed that there are no recent active posts.

For signup you'll need to use a VPN and sign up via South Africa.
Works perfectly inconjunction with the current free KeepSolid VPN deal.

  1. Follow the instructions in the post for the KeepSolid VPN deal to create your free 6 month VPN subscription.
  2. Open VPN; select South Africa
  3. Go to NBA.com. Choose an option that suits you (the annual package works out to be the best for all teams). Make sure you have selected South African Rand US Dollar for the payment option (drop down list with red arrow on the right)
  4. Sign up with a valid Credit Card; preferbally one with no international transaction fees - you can select Australia in the Country/Region.
  5. Done!

Once you have signed up, you should be able to stream and watch NBA games without the need of a VPN.

Enjoy!

edit: As mentioned in the comments, it's actually cheaper to pay for the subscription in USD as opposed to Rand.

    Just wondering if anyone has tried and can confirm this works?

    If you want to save a bit more pay using US currency with 28 Degrees card. It shows $58.08 on my account but still pending though so not sure if it's going to change.

    • anai on 18/10/2021 - 21:05

      Thank you! Paid with a Macquarie card and got it for AU$58.08 as well.
      It took me a moment to find it so for those who don't know, the currency selector is located on the right hand side of the page above the plans. Select and click "US DOLLAR" to have the league pass price show USD$42.99.

      india is the cheapest but you need indian VPN while streaming games

      • CheekyBargain on 19/10/2021 - 10:05

        True you do need a VPN to log in but once you are in you can turn it off and watch games without it.

        • dibdob on 19/10/2021 - 12:40

          Yes, I can confirm this to be true. Cost for LP this year was about $18, so I believe this is by far the cheapest option. You just need to turn on VPN, log in, start a game, then turn off VPN and then stream whatever games you want (as long as you don't close your browser). Last year (all season) I used the free version of TunnelBear; this year I am using the free (after Shopback) version of PIA. It has worked on all of the preseason games.

          • Skinnerr on 20/10/2021 - 11:20

            @dibdob: Not really an option for TV/box apps.

            • dibdob on 20/10/2021 - 18:29

              @Skinnerr: I have PIA installed on my phone, connect that way to log in/start the game, then Chromecast it to my 65" plasma screen.

    I did this a few years ago with a Indian account and VPN and it was great until last year. They really cracked down on VPN's last season though and I couldn't watch a single game.

    • Anonymous User on 18/10/2021 - 16:49

      spend more on NordVPN. so far so good.

    • zingerbox on 18/10/2021 - 17:02

      Indian is the only one where you have to use a VPN to watch games. I've been using Brazil/Argentina for years and never had an issue.

  • michaelb94 on 18/10/2021 - 15:02

    This works. My league pass has been based in Argentina for the last couple of years and I think I pay around $90 a year.

    • mrsecrecy on 18/10/2021 - 17:09

      Same. Just had mine renewed 2 weeks ago for around AUD82. Good find OP.

    I've done this for years but ended up only watching 10 minute YouTube highlights anyway.. so I don't even bother now. Good deal though.

      MLG Highlights FTW.

    • orly on 19/10/2021 - 11:11

      Don't forget that this includes playoffs, All Star events, full game replays of epic performances and NBA Finals. For those times when 10 min replays just won't cut the mustard 😊

  • s1n1st3r12 on 18/10/2021 - 15:04

    Any other VPN's people recommend and would you always sign up to a VPN with an alternative email address and not your main one? Always thought about doing this but was too afraid to give it try

    • Ryanek on 18/10/2021 - 15:09

      Works fine with TunnelBear

      • s1n1st3r12 on 18/10/2021 - 15:19

        Cheers also just want to know can I just pay for a month and then sign up for NBA then cancel the VPN without any issues?

        • Ryanek on 18/10/2021 - 15:26

          TunnelBear comes with 500mb free which is more than enough to pay for the pass.

        • sigplay on 18/10/2021 - 22:40

          If you're really stingy, you can sign up to a VPN that offers a 30-day no-questions-asked refund and sign up to NBA League pass using that. After you've signed up, request for a refund from the VPN provider

      • Hangerson on 18/10/2021 - 16:26

        Yep, I first tried with Nord and Surfshark and it still gave me the standard USD prices.

        Switched to tunnel bear and works fine. I found the tunnel bear connection to be notoriously slow, so what I did was when on the price page switched back to surfshark VPN (RSA server) refreshed the price page and works completely fine with the same prices intact.

  • swagkage on 18/10/2021 - 15:05

    league pass in turkey i saw the premium pass (extra perks) at 759L == $118 aud.

    looks like this is cheaper if sharing it with another person.

    might do it next year.

    I also found out that you can stream from desktop and phone at the same time with the regular leaguepass

  • wazman67 on 18/10/2021 - 15:19

    Fantastic - I have always used South American countries and I think paid around $120-130aud (and allowed to auto-renew already for this season). Next season I'll make the switch to South Africa!

  • Lets Make Sandwiches on 18/10/2021 - 15:27

    Don't forget one really important thing. If paying via paypal you need to wait a couple of minutes for the option to show up on the payment screen. It's ridiculous that this is the case but I spent days trying to figure it out.

    Also I auto renewed through Argentina at $62 AUD.

    Don't pay in Rand, swap over to USD while on South Africa and it'll be 42.99USD ≅ 58.08 AUD
    I put together this pricing table last year. Can't guarantee the prices have stayed the same (or that taxes haven't suddenly jacked up the price of Argentina).

    • Gh0StFaC3 on 18/10/2021 - 16:21

      Nice… do you do this every year? I always struggle to find any info about pricing prior to the auto-renew kicking in.

      • chorong on 18/10/2021 - 18:26

        Not really, I do the charts around the start of the season to get the pricing and refer back to it when I get my renewal email to see if the price has drastically risen or not.

    Cancelled my Canadian auto-renew this season because they kept cutting off my account last year (never said it was because of the country difference, and they'd connect it again after I contacted support). Also quality is pretty garbage for streaming in 2021…

  • TightTerry on 18/10/2021 - 16:54

    Ive had a league pass through Argentina VPN over the past 3 years or so and its good value but i feel i dont use it as much as i should. The problem is that i have a Kayo login and almost all the big games are on Kayo, i dont watch enough games so im not going to renew this year.

    • soob on 19/10/2021 - 08:26

  • tightm8 on 18/10/2021 - 17:41

    Signed up to one of these a few years ago, the auto renewals are even cheaper than this, but this year i am cancelling because the streaming quality is horrendous. I always end up having 'buffering' in many games.

    And no, 'my internet' is not the problem, Kayo and NFL work just fine.

    • [Deactivated] on 18/10/2021 - 19:14

      If the preseason is anything to go by then it looks like they've finally made the jump from 720p to 1080p. How that effects regular season buffering is anyone's guess. Week 1 is usually a mess due to the free trial.

    • smmoove on 18/10/2021 - 21:09

      To share an alternate view, I use League Pass mostly because I never get buffering or quality issues using it, and I do with other "sources". It's almost always been perfect for me.
