How to Get Discord Nitro Cheaper with a VPN

How It Works

Discord uses regional pricing. The price displayed depends on the detected country. A VPN masks your real IP address and routes your connection through another region. If you connect to a VPN server located in a country where Nitro is cheaper, Discord may display the corresponding local price. This approach is widely used, but may violate Discord’s Terms of Service, so proceed carefully.

Based on current pricing shown in France. Prices may vary depending on region, currency and Discord policy changes.

Tip: Prices in mobile apps may be higher due to store fees. Always compare with the price shown on the official Discord website.

Step-by-Step Guide

1. Choose a VPN with servers in the right regions

Pick a provider with stable servers in countries where Nitro is cheaper. Common well-performing options: Proton VPN, Surfshark, and NordVPN. If unsure, see our Best VPN comparison.

2. Install the VPN and connect to the target country

Install the VPN app and select a server in a cheaper region. Wait for a successful connection notification. Avoid overloaded servers to keep calls smooth.

3. Clear cache / use private browsing

Open a private browsing window or clear browser cookies. Then open Discord Web or the app while the VPN is active.

4. Subscribe at the local price

Open User Settings → Nitro. If the region has applied correctly, the price displayed should match the local rate. Proceed only if comfortable with the associated terms.

Countries Usually Offering Lower Pricing

Prices vary, but Turkey, Brazil, Philippines, Argentina, and Vietnam have historically offered lower-price Nitro tiers. Always double-check pricing at the moment of purchase.

Important Considerations

• Payment method. Discord may check your card's country. Region-matching gift cards or virtual cards may be required.
• VPN detection. Some VPN providers offer obfuscation modes to reduce the risk of blocks.
• Terms of Service. Circumventing regional pricing may violate Discord's ToS. Subscription cancellations are possible. Initial Nitro purchases may be refundable within a limited window.

Beyond Savings: Why Keep Using a VPN

Stronger privacy and protection

Discord uses TLS in transit but not end-to-end encryption for calls. A VPN adds a protected tunnel, especially useful on public Wi-Fi.

Access in restricted networks

In schools, workplaces or countries where Discord is blocked, a VPN can route traffic through an allowed region and restore access.

How to Choose the Right VPN

• Large server network including the target regions
• Stable speeds for voice chat and screen sharing
• Strong privacy features and a true no-logs policy
• Easy apps for desktop and mobile

Avoid free VPNs: limited speeds, small server choices, and potential data logging. A reliable paid provider works better for Nitro purchases.
