It's hard to imagine a sincere Valorant fan or aficionado who has never donated to the game. The amount of quality and professionalism that Riot Games puts into cosmetic items usually creates a strong temptation to purchase at least one of the items in the game. Some people buy every collection, but not all of those who buy Valorant Points with real money know how to buy skins in Valorant at a much lower price. After reading this material, you will learn all the possible ways to buy VP and skins in Valorant at a much lower price.

Changing your account region

Changing your account to another country is one of the best, but also one of the most expensive ways to buy in-game currency for significantly less money. To do this, you need to select a country in your region, as selecting a country from a different region can result in increased ping. However, if you do it within the same region, the ping will remain unchanged.

Previously, Ukraine and Turkey had the cheapest Valorant Points prices in the European region. For example, for the largest currency pack in hryvnias the price will be 0.39-0.40 euro cents per 100 VP, while in euros you will have to pay an average of 0.62 euro cents per 100 units of game currency.

However, in 2025, Riot noticed a trend among players “looking to save money” to move to different servers, and therefore raised regional prices in an attempt to equalize them. If you'd like to read more about prices in other regions, our Valorant Points Prices in All Regions article will help.

The cons of going this route include the long time it will likely take to organize this process. In addition, you will need to get another person involved, although this can all be organized with a proxy server or a good VPN service. However, it will be better to transfer your account to a friend or acquaintance from your chosen country so that they can play on your account for two weeks and write to support asking them to change their region of residence. In addition, you will also need to have a credit card from that country or a friend from the chosen country so that he or she can fund your account. The last option could be to purchase a code with Valorant Points if a card or friend is not available.

Create a new account in a different region

The method is similar to the previous one, except that you need to create a new account using a VPN with the selected country. This is very easy, but the only downside is that you will lose all your progress on your past if you have played the game before. However, you will get a big plus - you will be able to buy in-game currency cheaper, so skins won't hit your wallet as hard. However, you will still need to have a friend with a credit card of the country you have chosen, or look for codes to buy.

In-game currency codes

Since we've already mentioned codes for in-game currency a number of times, we can talk more about them. Sometimes in different online and physical stores you can find a discount code, with which you can get game currency cheaper than buying it through the game client. The main thing is to make sure that the code is suitable for your region. Discounts on such things are rare, so it can be considered a moment of luck rather than a purposeful hunt. Buy codes for Valorant game currency only in verified stores or from reputable online sellers. This will help to avoid fraud, because you risk running into scammers who will try to get rich at your expense.

Night Market

The Night Market gaming event is a great opportunity to get an attractive and interesting skin at a nice price. Although the probability that you will get the exact skin or knife you are interested in is low, if it happens, or if you come across another attractive option, it is a great opportunity to get it at a significant discount, which can be up to half of its price. However, the discount and the choice of skin are determined randomly. Night Market features only six skins, with considerably more in the assortment, and the event only happens once every 2-3 months.

Game account with skins

Purchasing an in-game account with skins may seem like a bargain, as you get a large number of skins significantly cheaper than you would buy them separately. However, it's worth remembering that this is unreliable, as a bad seller can scam you and you could end up with no money. In addition, there is a risk of account lockout, as it is forbidden to transfer data from your game account to third parties. This option can be beneficial only if you are willing to accept the risk and realize that you probably won't be able to use this account for a long time.

Complete bundle

Buying a complete bundle is advantageous, because the price for individual skins will be much higher than when buying in a package. If you buy everything at once, you will get a significant discount. Of course, it's rare that you'll like all the items in a set, but sometimes you might like a few of them, so it's worth considering buying a few extra items for a small additional cost.

The more VP, the cheaper it is

If you realize that one skin won't be enough to satisfy you, it's better to buy the maximum Valorant Points package at once, which will be much more cost-effective than several small ones. Look for yourself: if you buy the largest package for 100 euros, the price for 100 VP will be 0.62 euro cents, while the package for 20 euros, which includes 2900 VP, the price will already be 0.68 euro cents per 100 game currency. Therefore, think about your actions in advance and take as big a Valorant Points package as possible, if you realize that you will buy something else in the future.

Get free skins

Don't forget that you can get skins for free. In the large Valorant community this is done quite easily, as well-known streamers, content creators and large communities in Discord and other social networks often hold drawings when new battle passes or attractive skin bundles are released. Therefore, if your goal is to get skins in Valorant absolutely free, it's worth keeping a close eye on social networks and participating in such activities.

Participation in events

Every year Riot Games are becoming more generous to their players. Year-round tournaments are organized, both for the professional scene and for amateur. Often players can get additional rewards during the biggest competitions. This does not require you to watch the tournament itself, you can always just open a tab on the Twitch or YouTube platform and quietly go about your business. For some time, you will receive an award that you can already use in the game itself.

Often at such events are raffled keychains, player cards and unique sprays. This way you can get several skins absolutely free, which sounds much nicer than just buying a cheaper one.

Prime Gaming

This isn't exactly a free option, but at the very least it will help you with unlocking various skins. Subscribing to Amazon Prime Gaming gives you several rewards that change regularly after a certain amount of time. But, there is a little trick that can help you get them for free. Sometimes, you can use the free trial, after which you can pick up a few rewards and unlink your details, thereby unsubscribing.

Conclusion

The above methods are the main ways to save money on gun and knife bills in Valorant. The more complicated the method, the more you can save. However, don't forget that the tactical shooter from Riot Games can be played without any investment as the game only sells cosmetic items. With these cosmetic items you can express your style and diversify the gameplay with new and nice additions.
