Does anyone keep track how often the +20% credits purchase is available? I havent, but I think that maybe almost every month there is one. Or am I wrong? Does anyone know, so I can "plan" my investments 😂😂If I can take more shows for a specific price, then why not? Thank you in advance.

Its not a ever month thing. It use to be twice a year but now I would say every 3-4 months.

Had a quick look in my records and it seems I bought 600 credits, so the 500+20% in:
August, June, March, and Feb. But last time getting the 1320 credits was end of last December.
And of course for us Brits the £ exchange rate against $ and Euros is worse than it's been in a long time.
In Feb just before some idiot rolled his tanks into Ukraine £39 bought 600, but last purchase in August it cost £43.

For my part, for the same 600 credits, that is 500+20%, it cost me $67.05 in Canadian dollars at the beginning of August.

This shows that credits do not have the same cost for everyone, depending on the country where you live.


Pour ma part, pour les mêmes 600 crédits, soit 500+20%, cela m'a coûté $67,05 en dollars canadien au début août.

Comme quoi les crédits n'ont pas le même coût pour tous, tout dépendant du pays où l'on réside.

@wrightsayswow An increase of four euros is a lot.
It does seem unfair for those that use this money to pay more than those in the US.
Is the difference vat?

I have not bought credits in many months. I still have many thousands of credits.

The differences are due to the exchange rate of each currency. For example, I pay in American money, but my Canadian money is devalued against this currency and against the Euro.

Les différences sont dû au taux de change de chaque devise. Moi par exemple je paie en argent américain, mais mon argent canadien est dévalué par rapport à cette devise et face à l'Euro.

Is the difference vat?

Yje differences arise from different, and changing, exchange rates as well as whether or not VAT (or other tax) has to be applied, In Europe the price includes VAT, in the US there is no VAT and I understand the nearest US equivalent, purchase tax, is not charged on "out of state" purchases.

The need to pay VAT in Europe means that Totem receive a smaller fraction of what you pay than they do for purchases made by US customers. Some time ago this meant that although at first sight US customers paid less per credit than European customers did Totem would receive more from them per credit than they did from European customers - but since then the exchange rates have changed radically so this reversal may no longer occur.

C'est sûr que certains seront désavantagés sur le taux de change par rapport à d'autres, ceci dit: il faut aussi tenir compte du coût de la vie sur place pour déterminer si cet impact peut être plus facilement absorbé.

Juste pour tenter d'atténuer les choses.😉
