Please go easy, first time posting a deal like this.
Here are the steps I took to get the PC Game Pass subscription from the Philippines for ₱175/month ~$4.53.

  1. Purchase a global PC Game Pass key. Eneba
  2. Change Microsoft account region to Philippines.
  3. Add any payment method and set the region to Philippines, using a random Philippines address.
  4. Enable VPN to the Philippines. (I'm not sure if this step is necessary but I did it just in case)
  5. Go onto the PC Game Pass Philippines webpage and click the QR code beside the join button.
  6. Ensure it says "Philippines" next to the account email you want the subscription on. "It'll be added to [email protected] (Philippines)"
  7. Click next and it will ask if you want to turn on recurring billing.
  8. Select the payment method you added in step 3.
  9. Change the account region back to Australia.
  10. Enjoy.

Notes:

  • You can probably find a cheaper key on other sites but I chose a more reputable site and also didn't look around long.
  • I believe this can be done the same with the Xbox Ultimate Game Pass through Turkey which would roughly be ~$13.61/month. Just follow the instructions but change Philippines to Turkey.
  • The payment region lock does not apply to recurring billing so you are unable to purchase directly from a store with a different region from your payment method.
  • If anyone does this and has any feedback or additional/redundant steps please comment.

Thank you for listening.

    Would it not be better to get 24 months game pass core for $128(instintgaming) and then buying 3month game pass ultimate for $35(enaba) and essentially pay $10.85 per month for 15 months. For people who don’t want change region

      Yea that is true, posted this for the PC Game Pass though just thought it could be done the same with the Ultimate pass but it’s not as good value.

        That’s why I upvoted the post because that is pretty good Price for pc only game pass. Good job finding out

    • Ashisabroke on 27/10/2024 - 08:42

      Sorry can you please explain how buying 3 months of ultimate game pass gives you 15 months of ultimate?
      Thanks

        I just did exactly what V003 said, but basically, you purchase 2x12 months of game pass core (I couldn't see a 24-month pass), and then by adding the 3 months of ultimate, it upgrades you to ultimate but respects your existing time by the looks of it.

        • Sr1993e on 27/10/2024 - 09:24

          Wow and it worked?!

          • V003 on 27/10/2024 - 09:59

            @Sr1993e: just make sure that u don't have ongoing game pass ultimate. otherwise conversion rate of "core" to "ultimate" is not worth it.

            • cretin on 27/10/2024 - 18:51

              @V003: Can you explain what you mean by this? What's different about this if you have existing ultimate?

              • V003 on 28/10/2024 - 03:45
                +1

                @cretin: As far as I know 12 month of game pass core will convert to 6 months of game pass ultimate when you don’t have an active gamepass. If you already have gamepass ultimate and add the 12 months game pass core, you only get like 4 months of game pass ultimate added into your account. At that point why even bother with game pass core. Microsoft is s actively trying to close all the loopholes

    Why do you need to do step 1?

    • Sausageman on 27/10/2024 - 10:27

      Step 1 starts the subscription from the Philippines store. There no way to start it without a payment method from the Philippines.

      Yeah, I got a week left on mine lol. Far as I can see, India 12 months core is 36 for 12 months. Conversion rate for lapsed sub is 2:1 so 72 for a year. Far cry from the 130/3 years but I barely used it. Want it more for my kids now

    I trust Game Pass is an excellent deal for many people, but for me its something I've been paying a bit for over a large amount of time and have maybe used once. Something I've had to learn — a good deal isn't a good deal if you hardly use it. :)

    • captaincabinets on 27/10/2024 - 22:21

      It was a great deal back in the day but I feel like there's hardly any new AAA games coming on there now. At least, compared to how many there used to be popping up constantly in years past.

  • basud on 27/10/2024 - 10:05

    Hi everyone!

    Just didn't want to get this wrong. I couldn't find Philippines on there. So I look for the next cheapest. I found India at 12 months core for $35.95 and one month Ultimate global for $24. So if I change my region to India, then first use the 12 months core, then use the Ultimate global, it'll give me 12 months of ultimate? If so, do I have to use global or can I use India Ultimate? Thirdly, what's the max period that I can purchase? Still 36 months? like 3 x 12 months of core.

    Thank you everyone.

    • Pulseless on 27/10/2024 - 23:03

      I found India at 12 months core for $35.95 - where did you find this?

      • basud on 28/10/2024 - 06:50

        On the website in step 1

    • ThriftyKangaroo on 27/11/2024 - 07:53

      Did this work for you?

      I've tried to replicate this and i got this error:
      Check the instructions that came with your code. You might need to redeem it on a different web page or device, or you may be ineligible to redeem this code.

  • Pulseless on 27/10/2024 - 10:09

    Do you need to make a new account?

    • Sausageman on 27/10/2024 - 10:11

      No, I used my main account the previously had a Xbox Games Pass Ultimate Subscription from Turkey.

      • Pulseless on 27/10/2024 - 10:13

        Thank you. Also, Why do you need the first step?

        • Sausageman on 27/10/2024 - 10:15

          If you try the purchase the Phillipines pass directly from the Xbox store the payment doesn’t go through if you don’t have a Phillipines payment method and says currency mismatch. This way you add your card and turn on Auto billing which skips the payment country check for some reason.

          • Pulseless on 27/10/2024 - 10:19

            @Sausageman: I get that, but why do you need a Eneba game pass key first? Cant that step just be skipped all together?

            • Sausageman on 27/10/2024 - 10:22

              @Pulseless: The Eneba Game Pass Key starts the subscription in Philippines. There is no other way without a payment method from Philippines.

              • Pulseless on 27/10/2024 - 10:50

                @Sausageman: Yeah okay. The eneba pass is showing as $24.49 for me, how did you get for $17?

                • Sausageman on 27/10/2024 - 11:23

                  @Pulseless: It looks like it's sold out. You'll have to look else where.

      Yea, you can find the Ultimate Game Pass cheaper else where. I originally posted this for the PC Games Pass which I believe is the cheapest you can get it now. Might be better for people that don’t want to upfront so much money to a third party site. Also this is recurring so you won’t need to find more pass codes in x months and cancel anytime if you don’t want/ use it anymore.

  • couger on 27/10/2024 - 10:52

    Hi, OP, is the PC game pass method only work month by month? And Microsoft can change the price once they caught up, and you have to pay the new price immediately?

    • Sausageman on 27/10/2024 - 11:04

      Hi, yes that is correct. But Microsoft gives notice of price changes a month or 2 in advance, so it give to time to find something else.

        purchased the pc game pass version. $17.70 ish for the initial key thru eneba and php176 ($4.53 ish ) per month after. for a yr which is a life of a cod game you're looking at 17.70 + ( 11 * 4.53) which ends up being 67 dollars so a big savings from 110$ for this one game alone, among the other hundreds on the catalogue.

        • Pulseless on 27/10/2024 - 14:45

          What payment method did you use?
          Did you have the change the default Microsoft address as well or just payment address?

          • havo on 27/10/2024 - 15:46

            @Pulseless: paypal. just added a filipino billing (payment) address from a random generator during the gamepass subscription process.
            looks like you just can remove this address or change it to a correct one after you sign up as well in your microsoft account.

            • Pulseless on 27/10/2024 - 17:19

              @havo: Sweet, did you add the payment in before or after using the Eneba code?

      suggest checking the 'other offer' on that same page if you scroll down a bit , another one at $24. i found my $17 code there while the main one up top was $24.

      unfortuantely that appears to be out of stock from that particular seller so good luck, may suggest refreshing the page later to see if any other sellers get more stock

    Thanks for this OP…

    I do have a question for anyone who might know… If I can have friends from overseas like India or the Philippines who will agree to pay for the sub via their legit payment method, can I just skip the first step and purchase a sub from their respective locality xbox store page?

    • Sausageman on 27/10/2024 - 20:31

      Yes, I believe you can just straight up purchase it from any regions store if you have a payment method from that region but I have never tried this before.

      • tebbybabes on 27/10/2024 - 21:21

        Thanks, mate. I'm eager to give this a go. My gamepass just expired, but I didn't do the turkey thing… I think I just got heaps of xbox live gold stuff from an online reseller ages ago, then converted with $1. That was quite a few years ago.

        Now to see if I can strongarm any mates do pay this for me.

  • AggroMango on 27/10/2024 - 19:26

    Can I purchase a pc or even ultimate game pass trial instead for step 1? Also does our current pc game pass need to be expired?

    • Sausageman on 27/10/2024 - 20:30

      I believe the trial version can only be added to accounts that haven’t had a subscription before. And yes the current subscription need to be expired for it to start in another region.

    • AggroMango on 27/10/2024 - 22:27

      I got the "Xbox Game Pass 1 Month for PC Trial Global" from gamivo for arond $12 which worked with my current account but note that it "can ONLY be used if you never activated Xbox Game Pass on your account before", but worked for me even though im sure ive had the pc game pass before. I'm not sure if the other pc trial at gamivo for $1 less will work in Philippines as it's not showing up in the regions.

  • gentlekoala5906 on 27/10/2024 - 22:12

    Wait so step 1 you purchase and redeem the global PC Game Pass key before changing region to Phillipines?

    • AggroMango on 27/10/2024 - 22:19

      Yep then in step 5 you enter the code after clicking the qr

      • bcYield on 28/10/2024 - 02:47

        Can you get a refund if something goes wrong? Also, wondering if can do global PC Game Pass trial to save more?

  • gentlekoala5906 on 28/10/2024 - 16:55

    How did you change your account back from Philippines to Australia? I thought you could only change your region once every 3 months, therefore it would be a 3 month wait to change it back to Australia?

      When redeeming Game Pass Core from another region it requires using a VPN, also you should not be changing the region in your Microsoft account at all (leave it as Australia at all times)
      Here is a simple guide https://www.reddit.com/r/XboxGamePass/wiki/index/gold-ultima…

      VPN ON -> Redeem Game Pass Core from foreign region (eg. India) up to 36 months
      VPN OFF -> Redeem any Game Pass Ultimate code for Australia or Global (Example) (or Upgrade directly from Microsoft)

      And the conversion is always down, so 36 months Core will go down to 24 months GPU (Or it might be 18 months now)

      • ThriftyKangaroo on 27/11/2024 - 07:52

        I encountered this error when redeeming india codes when I have VPN to india: Check the instructions that came with your code. You might need to redeem it on a different web page or device, or you may be ineligible to redeem this code.

        Any idea?

        • wangasm on 27/11/2024 - 10:21

          Do you have an existing subscription on your account? (There can't be any)
          Try again with a few different VPNs, I can suggest UrbanVPN
          Last resort, try with a new account

          • ThriftyKangaroo on 27/11/2024 - 11:42

            @wangasm: Hey ! I tried UrbanVPN, FastestVPN, SurfShark and it still wouldn’t work.

            There is no existing subscription as it has already lapsed.

            The only thing I can think of is that I removed my payment card details from my account… does it need to be there ? If so, which region does it have to be, India or my current region

            • wangasm on 27/11/2024 - 11:50

              @ThriftyKangaroo: You can try adding your payment method back, it should be for the current region, not India. If that doesn't work you could try chatting to Microsoft support (from India)

              Only other reason I can think of is you purchased the wrong code or they gave you the wrong one.

  • marchozb on 20/11/2024 - 10:30

I'd rather not go to the effort of getting a VPN to change location but if it saves me heaps of money I don't mind. Looking to get Xbox Game Pass for PC for anywhere between 12 to 24 months.

    What should I do?
