How to use this estimate
- Pick your own market in the calculator and set the billing period to 12 months — annual totals make small monthly differences obvious.
- Turn on the foreign-transaction and VPN lines before deciding a cheaper region is worth it; for most services those fees erase savings under about $3 a month.
- Check the region-lock note above. Subscribing from a region you do not live in can breach the service's terms and lead to account restrictions.
