Why does the prices change depending on where you live?

  • The prices are in USD (US Dollar), visible on https://www.geoguessr.com/pro.

    GeoGuessr uses the Google Maps API to get the Street View data and this API had costs defined in USD. This is why the Pro pricing is in USD as it is essentially used to pay those Google API fees.

    If you're using a bank account that doesn't have USD then the bank will proceed to a currency conversion. Usually this comes with additional fees that are taken by the bank and not GeoGuessr. GeoGuessr only receive the equivalent of the USD price, nothing more.

    Each currency has an exchange rate with every other currency, which evolves constantly. Depending of the currency you use you'll have different pricing applied to your payment, along with the conversion fee. GeoGuessr does not control the conversion fees neither the exchange rate so they can't adjust prices depending of the player's currency.

  • No thats not what i meant, in Sweden it says the price in SEK and in Finland it says the price in euro but the prices differ to much to just be currency concertion

  • That's weird, I have prices in USD and I am in the euro zone. I never saw any other currency used. I don't know how they display the prices then.
