regional pricing
Geography affects price
Regional pricing is the practice of setting different prices for the same product or service based on geographic location.
Companies adjust prices according to local purchasing power, market conditions, or currency values: The game uses regional pricing, so it costs less in Brazil than in the US.
Common in software, streaming services, and digital goods, regional pricing often sparks debate about fairness and workarounds like VPNs.
