Can you actually pay the cheapest country's price?
Sometimes. Services that bill by your physical IP (some streaming) will block this. Services that bill by your card BIN (many AI tools and subscriptions) will accept any card with a supported country code. The reliable workflow:
- VPN to India during signup.
- Pay with a card or virtual card with that country's BIN, or with a multi-currency card that doesn't reveal your home country.
- Use the service normally — most don't re-check geo after sign-up.
