YouTube Premium India prices (via Apple Gift Card)

I have a family account I had setup for my parents to get YouTube Premium via India. Sadly YouTube cancelled my family subscription last month and so I've been looking for a method to get this back and pay not much more.

Today I appear to have cracked it - but you do need access to an Apple device.

I've basically used the instructions here: https://www.vpn-tools.com/youtube-cheaper/turkey/

But instead of signing up to an Apple Account in Turkey, I used India instead (this part didn't require a VPN). Though I did need to signup via Apple music.

Having setup the account, I next needed to purchase a Gift Card which can be redeemed on the newly created Indian Apple account via the App store.

So I launched my Amazon App, and changed the country to India (click on the second icon at the bottom - on Android that looks like a person, and then click on the flag on the top right corner to change country/region). I then located an apple e-gift card (search for "App Store Codes"), entered my email address and tried to purchase - it failed. I then connected to my VPN and selected India (IPVanish), and tried again - this time it added fine to my basket. I added in my Revolut card and payment went through fine. VPN no longer required after this point.

The gift card took just under 30 mins to arrive. Following which I continued with the instructions at the link shared above, and all went through without issue.

I only purchased a gift card which would cover one month of a family subscription, but it worked!

So one month @ 389 Indian Rupees = £3.64 GBP or $4.61 USD

I can confirm YouTube Premium is available again for the entire family!

Hope this helps someone!
