Georgian Lari
Turkish Lira

Ukrainian Hryvnia

We anticipate these changes to go to live on or after May 4, 2022. Feel free to contact customer support if you have further questions or concerns.

See you online!

Turkey was never a part of the USSR and has existed in its current state uninterrupted since 1923.Comment by 1922660Small correction: Turkey pays for WoW with Euros currently, not Rubles.

As a citizen of Poland, I feel offended.
Where is PLN?Comment by ErKo95Nuevo Sol when?Comment by TigerusFinally! My stockpile of Soul Ash will be used for something!Comment by NymrohdSmall correction: Turkey pays for WoW with Euros currently, not Rubles.

I had to pay for my subscription through a VPN just because I wanted to have nothing to do with rubles since we've been invaded.

Thank you for the gesture of support, Blizzard - it means a lot. First you actually waived subscription costs for the time being, now you're allowing us to pay in our own currency. <3Comment by BooblessThey should add the Emirati Dirham,Saudi Riyal or Kuwaiti Dinar for players in the Middle East.Comment by DrLemonAny plans for $SOL or $DUST?

I'd love to pay with my Phantom wallet.Comment by BenedictionThey need to add crypto!Comment by LemistioWhere are my złotówkiComment by StackDelayI still hope Blizzard makes the payments available in COP ( Colombian Peso) , other Latam countries have the access to bnet with their currencies :CComment by ArthustinusIs there a benefit from this?

I mean I pay with Euro and Iam from Egypt and Euro is like 18 EGP, so I almost pay 255 EGP per month for wow sub

Does paying with my own currency make the sub lower? (They put Country's own currency value into consideration, so they lower the cost?)Comment by 1497468Serious: it'd be interesting to know which currencies are currently accepted and in which regions (NA/EU/SEA) as well as what nations have decent user populations but have to use foreign currencies to pay for items through Battle.net. For example: I know there are players from Canada and Mexico as well as the USA who play on NA, and I wonder if they can use their own currencies. (I assume "yes" but you never know.)

Joking: when are we going to get to pay in the internet's most popular currency: thoughts and prayers?Comment by AstrandisSo what about Belarus, Moldova, Armenia, Central Asia? Will we be able to pay subscription?Comment by DanThePaladinIs there a benefit from this?
