When purchasing EVE Online products such as Omega time, PLEX, or DLC packs, you may notice price differences between Steam and the Fenris Store. These differences are due to regional pricing policies and local tax regulations.
Why Prices Differ
Regional Pricing Policies
Steam adjusts product prices based on your region. This takes into account local purchasing power, regional currency, and Steam’s own pricing guidelines.
Fenris Store prices are usually displayed in USD/EUR and follow Fenris' global pricing model.
Taxes & VAT
Steam automatically includes regional sales tax (VAT, GST, etc.) in the displayed price.
Fenris Store may show prices without tax until you reach the checkout stage, where VAT or other applicable taxes are added.
Currency Conversion
On Steam, purchases are made directly in your local currency.
On the Fenris Store, if your local currency isn’t supported, payments may be processed in USD/EUR.
Key Things to Remember
Steam prices are final and always include local taxes.
Your best option depends on your region, tax rules, and payment method.
Many sales and specials offers throughout the year may reduce the price of the content you are looking for.
