Is there a way to watch Disney Plus in unsupported countries?

Disney Plus prices and trial 1

Disney Plus a huge hit in the US, Canada, and the Netherlands. On November 18, it will also expand to Australia, New Zealand, and Puerto Rico. Unfortunately, it won’t expand to more territories beyond this until at least the end of March 2020. If you’re in an unsupported country are you totally out of luck? No, there is a possible workaround: you can use a VPN.

What is a VPN and does it work with Disney Plus?

While we have a guide that goes into further detail, in short: a VPN is a virtual private network, a connection method that provides extra security and privacy to a network. A VPN is also useful because it allows you to change your region so you can use sites and services that aren’t compatible in your country. For example, if you live in Romania you can connect to a server in the Netherlands and Disney Plus will now consider you in a supported country.

The catch is in how you pay for it, however. You’ll need to use a credit card from a supported region, so you’ll need the help of a friend or family member from another country. It’s also possible to get virtual debit cards that are associated with a US zip, but we’ll live you to Google to figure that one out as it varies depending on your region.

It’s also important to note that you’ll need to remember to install the VPN into all devices that are using Disney Plus (or get a VPN router), and you’ll need to make sure the VPN is always turned on before using the service. 

Okay, so now you know that a VPN is your best way around regional restrictions for Disney Plus, but which VPN do we recommend?
