Tutorial: Fortnite V-Bucks Cheap From Foreign Countries – A Quickstart
If you just want to try a purchase from somewhere else, let us try with Fortnite. As you may know, 13500 V-Bucks are priced 99.99€ across Europe. Hungary sells the In-Game Currency for just 85€, which is basically a 15% discount. Sure there is even more possible. In Argentina you get the same item for half the price but the process of purchasing these is much harder. So for your first try you should consider using an easy country. Assuming you are located in Europe, just follow the link to the Microsoft Store, hit Buy, enter your card details or PayPal address and a local billing address from Hungary - probably from your last visit of Budapest? – That’s it! There are a few of the easier countries. Czech Republic is also one of them. Whenever you spot one, you can even continue without the need of a VPN service. Additional information is shown inside a tooltip when you hover the country with your mouse.
Game-Sharing
Did you know that you can share purchased games or other content with one predefined friend or family member easily? This way you can split the price and share your costs. This does work with almost any game but unfortunately not with every DLC like a season pass or ingame currency. It’s always with a try but don’t expect every addon to work. In case you want to know more, you can find additional information and a short tutorial how to configure game sharing here.
Terms Violation When Purchasing In Foreign Countries?
What about the Microsoft Store terms when getting games from other countries? Is it allowed? Is it prohibited? Will you get punished for doing so? Simply No!
Even if all of this is not explicitly allowed, it is also not forbidden. Sounds strange but the terms are very spongy. Be sure they know what you’re doing but we never had one member of our community punished for this. They tolerate a small amout of people doing so.
