Signed up mine via Turkey last year and just let it auto-renewed for the same price but they've upped the premium plan to 3 devices now.

Simply connect to a Turkey VPN of your choice (I used NordVPN) then use Incognito/Private browsing to load the site and subscribe. Do make sure on the final page that the price is still showing ₺599.99 (in case of any VPN or cookie stuff-up).

Single stream sub is ₺479.99 (~A27.86) if you really want to save a few bucks or don't have anyone to share the sub with.

Had my 28 Degrees and Amex (a different premium sub for a friend) saved on file from last year and both were auto-renewed successfully last week. From what I gathered based on previous deals in the past, Paypal would be problematic so perhaps avoid that as the payment method.

inb4 anyone asks again: You don't need to connect to a VPN to watch. That is only required if you signed up for India LP - which IMO not worth the trouble now especially when you can share a premium sub with 2 other friends and split the cost (~A$11.60pp is crazy cheap).

"Watch all games commercial free on 3 devices at a time, and get access to in-arena streams." This BOLD part is missing when you load the page via Turkey compared to an Aussie sub though it's hardly worth the premium at AUD$210 (or AUD$155 for single stream).

      Did you follow the Method #2 on that link with the Virtual Card as the link shows 3 methods.

      Assuming Google Pay is a no go as it doesn't have the option.

      • eciuj on 01/10/2023 - 12:17

        I’m guessing not method 2 as that creates a virtual card and baddabing used a 28 degrees card. Congrats if it was just straight Turkish VPN and sign up with 28 degrees. If so they’re the only successful person I’ve read about. I’m trying method 2 from that link now. Funds wont clear in OlduBil for a couple days so I’ll report back. Down side is you can transfer back from OlduBil so I’ll have to spend it in Netflix cards etc.

        Edit: guide show a bank transfer from Wise but deposit from a credit card is also an option.

            @Dtezy: Do you mean using the Wise card as payment? If so it didn’t work for me either, but my comment was referring to the Wise to OlduBil transfer. OlduBil creates a virtual Turkish Mastercard card for you. I’m hoping that’ll work for the League Pass payment.

          Would be great to get a one-liner what was used from one of the 2 users above.

          The user says he used this principle via. Google Pay. There is no Google Pay option via. the NBA page. When using VPN to try and access via. the NBA app on the phone, it does not default to Lira - therefore unable to use a payment option from Google Play Services that is linked to the Turkey created pay profile. Been trying for 30 min to try and get it working.

            @cameronthom: I have an existing Google account with a Turkish payment profile, with a Fups card linked. I used that profile on an old phone and when I went to subscribe on the nba app, it opened Google play with Lira pricing (no vpn used). It has set up the subscription and it will take payment in 7 days. I'm hoping this works as trying to pay direct with Fups or Oldubil didn't work.

        So I have a seperate google account that i use to 'manage' my family.

        This account has a turkish payment profile setup for spotify, youtube premium etc.

        On my phone, I reset all data on the nba app. Vpn to Turkey, and signed into my seperate google account on my phone.

        Opened the nba app, selected my subscription of ₺599.99, it auto prompts to pay from google pay which already has the 28 degrees info. Subscribed, then created a new user login detail for nba app.

        Logged out of my seperate google account on my phone and logged back into my phone as standard. nba remains as the new user details.

        Hope this helps.

        • cameronthom on 01/10/2023 - 14:05

          • cameronthom on 01/10/2023 - 15:41

            @cameronthom: Spent like 2 hours trying this on PC apps, and on a separate phone and managed to get all the way to payment and it shows:

            "Your transaction can't be completed. To continue this transaction, secure your account. Learn more about securing accounts".

            Might give up at this point. Thanks for sharing though

    • Tamby on 02/10/2023 - 19:22

      Followed this method and worked for me too. Used an Android phone and deleted all Google accounts except for one Google account with a Turkish payment profile using ING card. Fired up NBA app got the Turkish prices (no VPN required). Similar to when I subscribed to Spotify, I received an error when I purchased using Google Pay. Reached out to Google via chat and issue was resolved instantly. I waited for 24 hours before trying again and it worked!

    What is the in-arena stream?

    • baddabing on 01/10/2023 - 14:32

      I believe its when you see the activities/entertainment at the arena durings breaks instead of ads

    • eciuj on 01/10/2023 - 14:34

      I remember reading it was the in arena feed instead of commercials.

    • JackedBargain on 01/10/2023 - 17:16

      The in-arena stream is a feature of the NBA League Pass Premium package that allows you to watch the game from the perspective of the fans in the arena, even during commercial breaks³. You can see and hear what is happening on the court, in the stands, and around the venue, as if you were there in person. It is a way to experience the game in a more immersive and realistic way. The in-arena stream is available for select games and markets². You can access it by choosing the in-arena option from the broadcast menu when you stream a game on the NBA app or website¹.

      • serpserpserp on 02/10/2023 - 08:28

        Thanks. Not that I watch a lot of live games anyway. Usually on replay.

    Tried changing my account to Turkey, turned off VPN at payment screen etc.

    I am trying to use ING card.

    While renewing my yearly Turkish disney account, i thought I'd try and sub via itunes/app store account credit
    VPN to turkey, open NBA app and subscribed, showed the TRL total and said payment successful.
    Will check its working on other devices and if so likely offer up a spot or 2 in the classifieds.

    • t0087669 on 01/10/2023 - 15:19

      how do you select payment via apple credit?

      • SBOB on 01/10/2023 - 15:27

        Account had enough itunes credit to cover the sub (i'd just reloaded it for upcoming disney, so now waiting on another batch of itunes credit to clear to load it back in to cover that again).

                    Just vpn to turkey. Open nba app, fresh account, make sure it’s in lira. Then when you click sub, it should automatically prompt you to pay via Apple credit

        I tried to purchase ₺600 worth of iTunes cards from Turgame using my 28 degree card last night. It was in payment pending status. This arvo about 2pm I got an email that I cancelled it. Wtf…

        The sites seems to be buggy AF. When I did the final purchase step, the website took about 1min to respond, then flicked back to the to the cart screen which listed the iTunes card asif I hadn't made the purchase. But when I went to my order history it showed my transaction as payment pending, until today and it w cancelled.

        • eciuj on 13/10/2023 - 09:08

          yeah I get the same with Turgame. Are you ordering from a mobile browser? I had the same experience when ordering via Safari mobile. The pending payment order will eventually get cancelled and you won't be charged. When you order via desktop browser you get a prompt asking which banking provider you want to use. The transaction then goes to pending approval and takes hours to complete. Honestly, just use G2A. Prices aren't as good but the transaction is quick and easy.

      NBA app shows
      Subscription: League Pass Premium
      Account status: Active
      Plan: 599.99
      Next Bill: 9 October 2023 (didn’t think I’d get a 7 day trial since it’s an old account)

    Following @baddabing's method seems to be working. Have received a receipt from Google Play store confirming subscription that shows the Turkiye price as well as it being reflected on the mobile app.

    Used NordVPN, Wise Card with preloaded TRY and a fresh Google Account that has a payment profile in Turkiye with the Wise card.

    1. Turned NordVPN on and connected to Tukiye
    2. Opened Google Play Store and downloaded the NBA App.
    3. Created new account on launch (There is a setting here where it loads your country to Australia automatically, I made sure to change this to Turkiye) and got to the Subscriptions/ League Pass page
    4. Subscribed to League Pass using Google Play.

    Hopefully it works post 7 day trial!

I then Opened a new Turkey gmail account and set up my wise and revolut card in my payment methods and set the destination and address to 'Turkey'. I download the NBA app and the prices were shown in Turkish Lira. I had 600 Lira on both cards but both failed and when I press subscribe it comes up with:

    "Error - You transaction cannot be complete. To continue this transaction, use a different payment instrument or contact us"

      Try turning off the VPN before pressing subscribe. BTW, Bluestacks is less messing around then using a phone. You can have instances with emails from different countries.

            @TwoStroke: No luck for me. The reply said the billing address and wise card address didn't match. I told them they did and asked google to stop declining my purchase. Google flagged my account for suspicious activity and asked me to verify again. They fixed that. Still doesn't work….

            I'm just about over it now.

              @burns13: I got the suspicious activity reset this morning and resolved it, and I had a response from them saying:

              "Thank you for contacting Google Support about failed transaction. We hope that this email finds you well.

              Issue status

              I can confirm that the transaction issue that you reported is now resolved.

              Next steps

              Before you attempt to make a purchase again, wait at least 24 hours. If you still can't make purchases after 48 hours, reply to this email."

              I checked and my Revolut card now works.

        Hope this is the case. Have been trying for hours to get to email or live chat.

        I think the options depend on the time of the day.

        I did it with a fresh account as suggested by someone else who got it working after failing to do it on an existing account, but didn't try email/chat with the existing account.

    Any new sign ups check the actual playback for me. Never had an issues for years of use now it's all a mess on nba app, and web. Really bad even when changing to 1080.

      now it's all a mess on nba app, and web. Really bad even when changing to 1080.

      NBA support says it's a known issue and should be fixed by season start.

      We shall see.

    Right I am pretty stuck. Tried setting up a new Google Account set to Turkey. Put in a Revolut card (nope), Up (nope), 28 Degrees (nope) and bought a small amount of Google Play credit from Turgame and downloaded the NBA app from the Turkish store (nope).

    • Zuelly on 05/10/2023 - 22:27

      You got an apple device…?
      Reason I say is I can vouch for Apple method (Atleast free trial)
      Use the Disney+ (https://www.ozbargain.com.au/node/780728) method for account creation.

        Had to borrow the girlfriend's but looks like it all worked! So much easier

    Hmmm, I managed to subscribe using Turkish Apple ID (with Turkish iTune cards) to my NBA ID Account (AUS). I’m unable to watch game on my home internet wifi. But I could if I switch my device to phone internet (4G).

    Is this normal for everyone? Btw do I need VPN in order to watch it via home internet?

    • Zuelly on 05/10/2023 - 23:39

      No.. I was fine without it…
      Maybe try relog without a VPN..?

      • Spinach on 05/10/2023 - 23:49

        What device are you watching it from? It just won’t work for my Chromecast, PC, iPad and iPhone (wifi). But works fine on my 4G connection.

      • Spinach on 05/10/2023 - 23:50

        Did you have to use VPN when subscribing? Also, does it matter if the NBA account is Australia? Would I need to change the settings to Turkey?

        • Zuelly on 05/10/2023 - 23:52

          I left everything Australia and i’m pretty sure I had a VPN on, can’t 100% remember though.
          Working on multiple PCs on different networks.
          Will confirm details shortly…

          • Spinach on 05/10/2023 - 23:57

            @Zuelly: Thanks for checking. I get playback error:
            4-62-7027: out of country blocked because client is neither in home nor in content portability region

            • Zuelly on 06/10/2023 - 00:04

              @Spinach: If you go on the NBA app, then Profile - App Info, do you have any Turkey related details in there?

              • Spinach on 06/10/2023 - 00:11

                @Zuelly: In my APP INFO:
                COUNTRY_CODE=AU
