General Airport cash cost

[Husam]

I find out that airport cash cost is different in each country comparing between my country Jordan and USA there is $35 cost me more.
$99.99 for 1200 greenies on sale for me it cost $135.
I dont think so that is fair for me.
What is the reason for different cost and who did that is it from GI or Microsoft or my country ?
Who else have the same different cost please post how much cost you in your country.
Thank you

I asked the AC team on discord and was told it’s down to the App Store. They set the cost in USD, it’s down to google/Apple/amazon/Microsoft to set the exchange rate.

I dont think so because $ rate in all country almost same and if there not $35 different its too much.

$35 is too much if it were exchange rate the difference would be smaller.

Maybe i dont know but if i think about it why Microsoft do that if they put $99.99 for USA and why they make it to me D 95.5 = $135 its too much so do you think i have to contact Microsoft ask them let me wait maybe other members asked Microsoft.

Buying 400/1200 in GBP for 99.99 = $130.
For me, microsoft is cheapest, then android, then apple.

OMG so $30 more and did you contact Microsoft asked them ????

I haven’t no.
Microsoft is around £84 for $99.99. £84 is actually around $110 USD.
Its apple and android that do $1 ~= £1. But £1 = $1.30.
Its not fair, but I doubt they’ll do anything about it.

For me in The Netherlands and iOS, 1200 greenies are 109,99 EUR. Which equals to USD 129.63 at the current exchange rate.

So, not as bad as in Jordan, but still not good.

Those are the prices I’ve got in euros and iOS

on windows prices are showing in dollars, so no way to compare

Euros and android
1200 greenies for 99.99€ , 10 euros less than ios.

As I understand it G! Is setting the price they want which is 99$ then on top comes App Store fees which on iOS is around 30% plus exchange rate fees makes it around 135$ for me as well

This is the prices in Indonesia (on Android).
1200 greenies is IDR 1,499,000. Which equal to USD 101.9 at current exchange rate.

Canada on Android is $140 CAD for the most expensive one. To USD converted is $105. Not $99. Fortunately I never buy that much so the conversion fees don't really matter on smaller amounts. It's negligible

Apple apply the same price all over the world ! without considering the local cost of live !
Whereas Google and Microsoft change price depending on the country ! it will be cheaper in "poor" country, and more expensive in "rich" country !

But Jordan Poor country i think Microsoft because in USA they make the lowest for USA citizen.
For me when i was living in UAE i just give a friend of mine $100 and his brother live in USA and buy for me a gift card.
I will try to find another way to buy a gift card

Yup, as a Canadian, my premium class ticket wasn't $5. It was $6.99. I guess that's pretty close given the exchange rate. But the game showed $5 so I was surprised when it came up with the amount I was getting billed. It's still an amazing purchase - although would have been better if I got the planetarium.

I've got $139.99 CDN for 1200 greenies. Comes to about $105 USD

The exchange rate is too complicated because I have done foreign exchange transactions for several years
