Disney Plus Yearly Membership: TRY₺649.90 (~A$52) + ₺33.29 (A$2.57) Admin Fees @ Disney Plus via Turkey (No VPN Required)

4320

While the previous deal was marked expired due to the increase of Disney Plus memberships, I thought it would be a great idea to re-share this workaround (since it’s still ~60% cheaper than Aus membership ($139.99)1 :) ) and credit to the original OP and Pricebeat for their methods


For Android users:

  1. Create new Google account on phone
  2. Delete cache in Google Play Store (not sure if needed)
  3. Select new account in Google Play Store
  4. Add payment method and select Turkey as Country.
  5. Uninstall Disney+ if you have it installed.
  6. Open Google Chrome/browser on your phone in an incognito window. Set your window to desktop mode.
  7. Search Disney+ on Google Play store in your browser.
  8. Log in on new account and remote install Disney+ to your phone
  9. Open app on phone and pay in TRY

For iOS users:

  1. Create Turkish Apple ID

Go to https://appleid.apple.com/account
Follow the onscreen steps. In the mobile number section use your Australian mobile number (Very important to use a valid number or risk losing your ID). Choose country as Turkey. Then follow through the rest to create your ID. Login into Apple ID on a browser. Go to this link to enter a Turkish address to your Turkish Apple ID and save.

  1. Go to Settings on your iPhone/iPad > Your Name > Media and Purchases > Log out from your current ID and login with your Turkish Apple ID

  2. Go to App Store and download Disney Plus app > A pop up may appear to confirm your details > Choose payment method as “None”

  3. Buy TL iTunes gift cards from TurGame (50TL/TRY x 13 gift cards) > Choose currency as TL/TRY and pay with international transaction fee free card.

    Wow! Not long ago it was about $30. The price has skyrocketed. Glad I signed up earlier.

  • Just top up my iTunes wallet last month for this :(

  • I assume the price rise is due to the crazy inflation in Turkey and the ever decreasing value of the Turkish Lire ??

    • would assume that's part of the reason, same as why netflix does price increases for Turkey every so often as the lira just keeps dropping & streaming services get cheaper (for those overseas ;-)

    • The price increase is because Disney+ now has two different tiers. Ad free and ad supported.

  • Didn't work for me. Once reinstalled, the Disney App showed $, even before logging in. Are you sure a VPN is not required?

    Should the phone be signed into the new Google account too?

    • No, VPN is not required for watching it.

        Thanks, I'm talking about during the process in OP, not watching

    Does anyone know where the ozbargain page is that lists all the international subscriptions, e.g. Netflix via Turkey, Tinder from Turkey, Grammarly from Argentina, etc. etc?

        You are a legend my friend, thank you!!

      • This is for iOS (Apple)

        • You can do the same with Android. Same logic just slightly different process.

          • @frazel: Yep. I have subscribed with Android a couple of months ago for $30.

  • +2

    This was a bit of effort but worker perfectly 👌

  • Must have messed something up, can't change my country and it already knows I'm in Australia

    • Do not mess with your everyday google account country. You can only change it once a year. Hence instruction starts with create new google account.

      • +1

        That's what I did, sorry I wasn't clear, I made a new account. I got up to step 4 but Australia had already been locked in as my country. I suspect it happened automatically when i added payment method ?? Thanks for the warning though

        • +1

          Same, it doesn't add my debit card payment method after selecting "Turkey".

  • Awesome, worked perfect - easy instructions

  • If I get through all of this is Disney going to mind when I use the login details on my telly?

    • Works on tv without any issues

  • Thanks! Works well. Took a bit of effort but happy with result.

  • +1

    Doesn't work for me, it says, your payment method does not match the county you are signing from..
    also when trying from mobile without VPN it shows AU price…

  • +1

    Has anyone tried adding a credit card instead of using gift cards?

  • What payment method did ya'll use?!?!?!

  • +2

    After creating a new account, the Play Store is not letting me change country to Turkey after adding payment details? There is a 12 month wait?

    • +1

      so google has stopped this?

      Edit: tried myself, everything worked as per OP. Thanks! First time user though

  • Rather than creating a new account, can you use an existing one like we do to get the cheap youtube premium? Because my YT is from deal using Turkey one via VPN. Thx

  • Anyone remember how long the codes took to send to them? I did it a couple of hours ago and haven’t received them

    • Hi mate, do you remember how long it took to send them the gift card codes?

  • Worked following the android instructions on my lapsed Aussie Disney+ account. Thanks. 👍

  • Sorry a newbie question, in order to watch it do you then cast your phone screen to tv for watching or can you install on fire tv etc?

    • +1

      You can use on TV app, PS5 Fire Stick etc just log in

  • It worked for me on android - just needed to get a postcode for Turkey to use

  • +1

    Its not work not me. sad

    I am using Andrid, Samsung S21 Ultra

    I created new google account from the phone.
    I add my debit card detail and select the country to Turkey (address generator)
    Remote download and install app from play store on the phone.
    But step 9, still show me the AU price also after I sign in with google account just set, still AU price.

    I tried twice, create two accounts, same result.
    :((((

  • Anyone having issues paying for the apple gift cards through turgame? I tried apple ones and the payment methods don’t seem to be working. I used the GPAY and TLPAY options, both failed with payments. Each order is showing as failed or pending payment

    • Me too, did you end up figuring it out? I can't seem to do it.

  • I was nervous, but this is working like a charm for me. So thanks very much for the instructions.
    I did have a step which I was confused by and a couple of questions.

    1. What is the reason for changing the currency in Turgames to Turkish Lira? By default, mine were in Euros. I ask because when paying, the popups were in Turkish and I needed to get them translated. No-one mentions this in the forum, so I wondered if it was just me.

    2. When I first used my Disney Plus after completing the new annual subscription, I got a message which said, "it looks like you are travelling". Has that happened to anyone else? It seems to work fine though I did have to log out of my Apple TV to get Bob's Burgers to work. Both, which could have been coincidences.

    Notes for others which might be useful:
    - I didn't use a VPN for any steps
    - The gift cards are only retrievable in Turgames when your payment is processed. Mine took overnight.
    - There are some very small transaction & service fees in Turgames.
    - I don't have GPAY google pay, so I used PAYTR (I had to google GPAY to know which one to use).
    - Turkish currency option was hidden under a popup across the top of the website.

    Cheers.

    • god-damn GDPR popup! Thanks

  • Poms are reporting Google cancelling subs, https://www.hotukdeals.com/comments/permalink/49229103. Anybody here seeing this/

  • Finally got it working on Android! Step 4 mucked me around really badly as it forces you to have an Australian payment profile if you add your payment method first, worth doing it not within Google Play to get a Turkish payment profile, then add your aussie card to it after you have confirmed it as a Turkish payment profile.

    • +1

      When you say "not within Google Play", where/how do you do it instead?

      Cheers

  • Keen to get on board just wondering across multiple family devices how does this work on iOS/ TVOS. Do I need to type in email address and password or do I need to Sign in with Apple on all devices and does this create a problem across kids accounts ? At the moment we are subscribers through iTunes so it all works seamlessly with family sharing. Just not sure how it will work. Any advice greatly appreciated

    • It links to your Disney account. Apple ID is just a payment method. Nothing else

  • If you use Turkish iOS to sign up, does that mean your Apple device has to be signed into that Turkish account for all other use?

    • It links to your Disney account. Apple ID is just a payment method. Nothing else

  • What happens at the end of the year? Repeat the process? It doesn't roll over unless you are logged in to your Turkish Apple ID on your phone and have funds available right?

    • It doesn’t roll on if no funds. Either logged or I logged if it’s meant to renew it would be automatic.

  • +1

    Thanks OP, I have to say the amount of work required to get this to work reminded me of the good old days of World of Warcraft where you'd be sent to collect items and exchange them for a reward. In this case logging into my existing Disney+ account and subscribing with a massive discount! Cheers!

  • Finally got the payment working but now it has complete subscription and restore purchase even though they have already taken money. This happen to anyone else?

    • yes, same issue - can only use subscription on the device i signed up with and cant stream to Chromecast devices

  • Hi, how do I change the currency in TURGAME? I can't see the option? Many trhanks.

    • +1

      It’s at the very top of website page.

  • I tried it on Android. Got up to the final step (payment was shown as 649 TRY) but on selecting the payment it errored with
    'Your payments profile is currently suspended because some information on your account couldnt be verified'.
    Anyone else seen this?

    • Some users who used Android method on previous deal had their membership cancelled and lost money.

  • Thanks worked!!!

  • Still works like a charm for iOS. Thanks for the detailed Instructions.

  • iOS method still works. Although I had to fix the content rating, as it changed it to 13+ for some reason.

  • Anyone else having issues using Disney+ on other devices?

    I went through the process - new Android device, new google account, new payment profile in TRY, new Disney+ subscription - all went through fine… however the subscription only works on the device that it was purchased on.

    If I try to sign in on another device (computer or android) with the same account, it logs in but presents a "Complete Subscription" button and asks me to pay again.

    If it start to watch a movie on the initial device, which works, and try to stream via Chromecast, it transfers and looks like it's starting, but comes up with an error.

  • Used an existing Disney+ Australia account (expired), and went through the Turkey iTunes method.

    All fine to subscribe and can access from any device.

    Content though is gimped, only Star Wars cartoons, 20 documentaries in NatGeo, etc.

    Anyone else have this issue?

    • +3

      Check age restriction option in settings.

      • +3

        Mate thank you, that did the trick. Wouldn’t have thought to check.

  • +1

    Does my subscription need to be expired before I can do this on iphone?

  • Can confirm needed to clear Play Store cache

  • Trying to sign up using IOS, I've created a Turkish appleid, went to turgame to purchase the 13 apple gift cards, tried twice to GPAY but FAILED twice, then tryed via PAYTR a few times and it comes up with this error ({"status":"failed","reason":"paytr_token gonderilmedi veya gecersiz"})..
    Anybody knows what I'm doing wrong?

    • Payment option via PAYTR finally worked in the end (did nothing different, just had to keep trying for many days) and payment was successful, had to enter my AU mobile number after checkout so they can contact me re: security or something (had to translate to English).
      I received my apple gift card codes the day after, put them in the new Turkish AppleID I created and subscribed through the Disney plus app for a year and all is good :)
      Thanks OP.
      Now to try Netflix!!!

  • Any way to do this with just a VPN instead of making a new AppleID?

  • Just wanted to share my thanks, this method worked for me (Android), signed up at $52~/yr
    Side note, the account i used, first time i added a payment in my play account, just asked for the country, but i decided to remove that payment and added another payment/card and the 2nd time it asked me for an address, just generated a random one and the new payment/card was saved with no issues, did not affect signing up.

  • I email turgame support re: payment issue with not much help, they advised to use different browser and change ip which I did and still can't checkout?! I am choosing the PAYTR. I don't know what to do really?

  • Does anyone know if i can cancel my Disney subs early and still use it till the end date? As I will be away when its meant to expire so i dont want to have it auto renew fo ranother year.

    • Yes, I cancelled mine last week and kept using it until today

  • Confirmed working today to renew lapsed sub. Used St George credit card. Had to clear Play Store cache.

    • question, when you login to disney plus, do you have to change the currency first, as i keep getting AUD rate?

      • I'm pretty sure it came up with Turkish currency after clearing Play Store Cache.

  • Can I use VPN to turkey and make a new Disney+ ac?

  • Thanks OP, worked a treat following your Android instructions. Just in time as well, I have 3 weeks remaining on my complimentary 12 month Telstra freebie from last year.

    Got a little worried when it was all in Turkish but managed to change the language to English.

    Thanks again!

  • Has anyone done this for re-subbing via iOS? So, if i buy the gift cards, add to my account, will it give me an option to use gift cards? Right now, i follow the process to re-sub (using an already existing, expired account) and it asks to input credit card or mobile in payment options. I havent got gift card credit yet though, so maybe it checks that first before asking for CC/mobile. Want to make sure before i go and order the gift cards.

    • i sucked it up and had a go. So i can confirm that it does in fact check itunes balance before asking for CC details. So yes, you can re-sub using the same account on iOS. I'm good to go for a year via turkish disney using the method outlined by the OP.

      • Thanks for these posts and playing pilot… I'm yet to buy the Turkey iTunes gift cards.

        But I wondered why we needed to go the Turkey iTunes gift card route, and why not just use and input a credit card? I can't test this yet as my Disney+ doesn't expire until just under a weeks time.

        Did you attempt to input credit card, before proceeding with the gift card route? What made you go with the gift card route?

        TIA!!!

        • +1

          i did try, iirc, you just can't add credit card details to your turkish account. Either that or my bank rejected it (Commbank). Eitherway, i tried and was forced to go the gift card route.

          • @Grandpipe: Awesome, thanks for validating! Looks like I'll follow suit 😎

  • So, I went through most of the process only for the kids to be given a 12 month subscription by the grandparents. So, would anyone like to purchase the Turkish iTunes codes? I have 13 unused codes!

  • +1

    Cheers OP, mine finally expired earlier today. Last repay was 90 bucks. I didn't mind that, but 140 a year is pushing the friendship.

    FYI to anyone on Android, it said 140 p/y for me too, I clicked ahead cautiously and it reset to 649 TRY (52.xx AUD) and charged me correctly, just obviously don't confirm paying any more, but don't be worried if it says that, bc it did for me and it was fine. No VPN or anything beyond the steps outlined required.

  • Anyone got this to work recently (android method)?
    I tried last night, steps 1-3 no trouble.
    At 4, added a payment method which locked me to Australia and I couldn't change it…. Looked in the comments and saw suggestions to select the country prior to adding payment method.
    Gave that a go, again 1-3 no problem. At 4, try to select my country in google play - won't let me, there's no option there. I have (greyed out):
    "Country and profiles (greyed out)
    Switch to the Australia Play Store (greyed out)
    Add credit or debit card
    Add paypal"

    Trying the above on wifi in case that matters. Also the payment method I added (first attempt) was paypal, worth trying debit card directly?

    Wondering if they've put in some form of cooling off period or something before one can set the country now? (Which would seem odd.)

    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

  • Android method sounds easier but i have the option to do either, do people still recommend IOS method more?

  • On iOS here and been trying for a few hours and can't figure out what's going on.

    I have enough credit and my Apple ID is Turkey based. I try and subscribe, get the correct amount for monthly or annual.

    But when I follow through (Step 4 of 4) and use my fingerprint/password to verify, it comes up with an error "Your Purchase Could not Be Completed".

    Any ideas?

    • Tried more than a week later with no changes etc, and it worked fine… weird.

      Anyway, thanks all :)

    Reaching out to OP @bargaingrabber and OcontentP @devize

    For those who've successfully done this on Android, it's unclear exactly what needs to be done and seems to be asked at regular intervals in some manner in this thread:

    4. Add payment method and select Turkey as Country.
    - What payment method do I add? & see below
    - Where/How do I select Turkey as Country?

    9. Open app on phone and pay in Try.
    - Using what payment method? What works? I know from prev. method that I cannot charge TRY to my Bendigo Bank debit card, nor prepaid Mastercard.
    - Seems like purchasing Play Store credits from TurGame is potentially a solution, though I've only seen it referenced as used for Play Store once, and many reports in general about potential issues with credits being issued after purchase…. Looking for some confirmation really

    Any assistance or input, from whomever, would be greatly appreciated!!

  • Is there a way to do this without creating a new google account?
    And if i do have to create a google account, does it strictly require me to log in to disney with the same email or can i use any other email?
    When i start disney+ it gives me Australian pricing…

  • +10

    Hmm my sub just got cancelled :(

    • Seems like Disney is doing some covert cracking down….. No reason for sub cancellation, just cancelled. Might be monitoring geolocation of logons?

      • Or maybe screen sharing related crackdown.

        • +1

          Nah our account wasn't being shared outside of the house. It'll be a geolocation thing. Oh well, 10 months for $28 is still a good deal.

          • @messiah1095: I only got 4 out of mine :(. But still $28 for 4 months still cheaper than an Aus price
            I signed up again, see what happens… But not at $28 :(

            • +1

              @D3m3ntia: Yeah was considering that but I think they'll just do the same thing. Might wait for a bit and see, let me know how you go with it.
