Understanding Subscription Costs Worldwide
The same subscription can cost a vastly different percentage of income depending on where you live. We help you understand the real cost of services.
What is Purchasing Power Parity (PPP)?
Purchasing Power Parity (PPP) is an economic theory that compares different countries' currencies through a "basket of goods" approach.
Relative Cost
PPP adjusts for the different costs of living across countries. $100 in the US might have the same purchasing power as $40 in a country with lower costs.
Fair Pricing
PPP-adjusted pricing ensures that services cost approximately the same percentage of income regardless of where you live.
Global Access
Companies that offer PPP pricing help make their services more accessible to users worldwide, regardless of economic disparities.
Our PPP calculations are based on World Bank data and provide an approximate adjustment for comparing service costs across different economies.
