Resharing again after 6 months for those unaware of this workaround to score YouTube Premium at a fraction of the normal price (with full credit to HiDave for the original find). Personally been on this plan for over 18 months and works flawlessly with 28 Degrees MasterCard (no fees). Please stay safe, and enjoy :)

Very straightforward process:

  1. Use a VPN to connect to an Argentinian server (required only for registration).
  2. Open an incognito browser window.
  3. Sign up via the main link in this post (or here).
  4. If an Argentinian address is requested, use this link and Google the postcode.
  5. Pay with a card that has no foreign exchange fees.
  6. Enjoy the full benefits of YouTube Premium.

          Everything from bike repair tutorials, history recap animations, to demo of features of the new Garmin Fenix instead of reading thru the manual. A lot of the content on youtube is very well put together and there is almost endless content for your hobby niche. Premium is well worth it.

    • ExtraSalt on 12/12/2021 - 17:35

      Yes I did it accidentally. I changed my location to Argentina and then thought Na this is gonna be too hard. Re-signed an hour later and happened to still have my VPN on and it was absolutely seamless.

    • Yapapi on 13/12/2021 - 14:55

      I couldn't, so I have my Australian Google account and my Argentinian Google account. I primarily use Youtube on my phone and it works fine to stay logged in on the Argentinian account on the Youtube App only. If I do want to use it on my desktop, I just have to use a non-Chrome browser (where I stay logged in on my Aussie Google account). Minor pain in the ass to re-do all subscriptions, but not really that big a deal in the scheme of things, not when cheap premium is on offer.

      • User76 on 15/12/2021 - 06:39

        Chrome allows you to have multiple profiles, so just have a 2nd profile for your Argentinian log in. So when you open Chrome it will ask which profile to load. I do this to separate my work, personal and volunteer stuff so it doesn't all get mixed together.

        India google location seemed to change my location for youtube plus and movies but stil aud prices at play store and iap.
        I have a us and ca gmail account from years ago that work fine for iap (for like half price) if its a game that you can use a code or something though I think adding money and stuff is hard now. maybe I shouldnt waste money on mobile junk or super chats >.<

          You need to get them to accept your invitation to become a family member while they are connected to a VPN, in your case it needs to be set to India. If your family members don't have a VPN (or never heard of a VPN) you can help them by letting them use your computer and they can login to their Gmail/email accept your offer and go to their Youtube/Music/Premium to check that it worked. After this they no longer need to use a VPN. I've done this for my nieces/nephews, they make fantastic presents for children/teens of the digital age!

          • Shali on 27/12/2021 - 21:52

            @PukeyLuke: Hi, I'm one of those ppl who've never used a VPN, could you link me to one for Indian Disney hoststar and yt premium please?
            Are VPNs usually paid websites?

            • PukeyLuke on 28/12/2021 - 19:35

              @Shali: Hi, a VPN is a software that directs your internet traffic through the country that you want to pretend to be in.
              There are some free ad supported VPN's that are very slow, I have no idea on a good one.
              Or you can pay for one, I use PureVPN, but Nord VPN seems to be the most popular on OzBargain.
              You can pay by the month, about AU$7 or $8 or buy a 2+year plan for about AU$25 per year.

      If you subscribe using Indian Youtube via VPN or any other means, does the family plan work in Youtube accounts in Australia ? I thought for family sharing and youtube premium to work the plan has to be purchased in the same country/region where the account will be used.

      I had India sub too but switched to Argentina about a year ago because I listen to Spanish music and prefer them as being my recommended music/videos, a bit of a fiddle to switch but depends on what your priority is and if you're really bothered by the $1.

    Finally got off my butt and installed Smart YouTube TV on my MiBox. Wasn't a huge fan of the interface compared to the predecessor app but it's grown on me. Having it not only skip YouTube ads but magically skip those "but before I get to the two minutes of content, a five minute chat about this video's sponsor" bits and other filler like credits is a revelation. Don't know how we lived without it.

      • Trishool on 21/12/2021 - 15:49

        Given how many bloody ads YT has - 2 before a video, then one or 2 during a video, not to mention it spoils the experience with an interruption half way through a video (yes I know you can skip it a couple of seconds later, but I still hate the ads), I think paying $3.50 a month, where my wife and I, along with my kids can watch YT without ads, is well worth it. You can also download videos to your device to watch offline with YT Premium.

    • nickj on 13/12/2021 - 20:00

      Yeah, we actually watch YouTube since installing SmartTubeNext on my google chromecast with google TV. Without this, the endless ads, sponsor promos, self promos, etc, just made it completely unwatchable and irritating, and we never used it. But with this app, we actually watch it and it gets watched a lot, the difference is absolutely massive. It's also made me enable sponsor block on YouTube Vanced on my phone.
