Would you like to buy Duolingo Super, but you don't feel like paying the amount that the application tells you to pay in your country? That is understandable, as the price of Duolingo Super varies a lot, depending on where you live. Not all applications operate with price variations between countries, but Duolingo does. As a result, if you follow these instructions, you can get a very nice discount on Duolingo Super!
I use several application to learn new languages. Duolingo is for sure among the best on the market, but I also use DROPS Language to learn new words. I recently published an article dealing with the fact that DROPS run with the same prices worldwide, meaning that a person in India, Turkey, Mexico, Switzerland, or France, will pay approximately the same prices (even though the salaries and income vary greatly between the countries). I have seen this in many games as well, such as Brawl Stars, where you also pay approximately the same no matter where you are in the world.
But, then you have those using a different model, like the game Stumble Guys, and Duolingo Super. These applications take into consideration the income of people in different countries, and price their products based on this information. As a result, you will pay less for Duolingo Super if you live in Turkey, compared to a person driving a Lamborghini up and down the streets of Zurich (Switzerland).
What does this mean for you? Can you take advantage of this information?
This is how you can save money on your Duolingo Super subscription using a VPN!
Have you considered buying Duolingo, but you found it too expensive? This information will help you! All you need is a subscription to the popular VPN provider NordVPN.
NordVPN has a 30-day full-refund policy, so if you don't like it, or don't want to use it anymore, cancel within 30 days and get your money in return.
Purchase a normal VPN subscription above and download the VPN application to your computer or telephone. Then you can open the application and connect to a server in Turkey. This will give you a Turkish IP address, and Turkey is one of the cheapest countries for buying a Duolingo Super subscription.
Now you should open your browser in a brand new window (possibly Incognito mode). Visit the Duolingo website and you will now see the website as you know it. It is time to create a new user and buy a Duolingo Super subscription (at Turkish prices). If you want to continue your streak with your present user, you must buy a family subscription and invite your "old" user into the family. You can then join the family of the "new" user and continue using your old user and keep the streak.
If you log in with your current user and not a brand new user, you will see the prices in Turkish Lira, but you will see prices equivalent of the international price level, and not the real prices of Duolingo Super in Turkey. In other words, it is essential that you first connect to a VPN server in Turkey, then open your browser. Make sure you are logged out of the Duolingo website, or to be even more sure, open an incognito/private mode window. Now go to the Duolingo website, register a new user, and then you will see the real prices of Duolingo Super in Turkey.
A very discounted price for Duolingo Super.
At the time of writing, the price for one year of Duolingo Super Family in Turkey is 1200 Turkish Lira, equaling about 32 Euro. If you find that to be a good price, then you should probably check it out yourself. Do not forget, this is the price of the family package (available for up to 6 persons). If you only want a subscription for yourself, then it is available at a cheaper cost.
You will first do a 14-day free trial, and then if you like it, the money will be deducted from your bank account after 14 days. Isn't that a nice thing? If you purchase a family package, you can share your subscription with 6 people.
Do not forget that you will also find Duolingo Super discounts around Black Friday and at other times of the year.
I recently watched the 2024 DuoCon, and there are lots of nice improvements coming to Duolingo, for example the chance to have real conversations with an AI bot. This still isn't available on all platforms, nor in all languages, but it is just around the corner. That is one a brand new function with Duolingo that I look very much forward to use.
When you have your VPN subscription, do not forget that you can use it to get discounts on many other applications and programs, and it can also be used to unblock Netflix content in other countries and get access to live streams from TV networks all across the world. You can read more about such use-cases as well in my other blog posts.
I hope these instructions will help you learn more with Duolingo, and with a cheaper Duolingo Super subscription. If you have any questions or comments regarding the content of this article, write a comment below.
