Verified 2026-08-01 · plan shown: Premium

Fair-price lens: ZAR 64.99 is genuinely cheap in absolute terms, but adjusted for South Africa's local incomes it's comparable to about €7.65 on a Western wage. The discount tracks purchasing power, not a loophole — why prices differ.
Historically lax, now queries and re-prices mismatched accounts. Most markets need local payment or a gift card.
