The localized pricing mythMost developers think the store already localizes their prices.
It doesn't. It only converts the currency, and a converted price still isn't adjusted to what people there can afford.
The same $19.99 app, market by market · converted vs localized| Market | Store price | Overcharging | With PricePush | Suggested change |
|---|
| 🇧🇷Brazil | R$ 129.90 | ≈ $9.69 |
| 🇲🇽Mexico | MX$ 399 | ≈ $9.94 |
| 🇮🇳India | ₹1,899 | ≈ $6.90 |
| 🇮🇩Indonesia | Rp 345,000 | ≈ $6.70 |
| 🇹🇷Turkey | ₺999.99 | ≈ $9.55 |
Store price is the App Store's auto-conversion of the same $19.99 base; the PricePush price reflects local purchasing power. USD amounts use today's exchange rate.
PricePush sets each country's price against its local buying power with Purchasing Power Parity, not just the day's exchange rate. Real localized pricing, set up for you.
And by hand, it's a week of edits. A typical indie app:
1 app × 5 products × 175 storefronts × 2 stores =
0 / 1,750
by hand, every time the base price changes
0 / 1,750
