What is the currency in Palestine?

[Oren The Mountain Biker]

Salam aleykum!
If I change my store location to Palestine, will I pay in dollars or shekels?
thanks

if the countries currency is not supported, default fallback currency outside of Europe is USD and in this case you will pay the normal USD price.

but they don't have a currency and they use shekels, there are shekels in steam, but it's not really their currency

Palestine's official currency's are the Israeli New Shekel and the Jordanian Dinar

not relevant what they use, on Steam they pay in USD.

Well, then it looks like the only way to know is to test it, Im chaning my store location to Palastine, I hope it's not shekels. I have to buy every game from fishy sites because in steam the price is 30% higher if you pay in shekels, GTA V for example is 40% higher than USD

while not being logged in. then you can check the pricing and used currency for every country.

i wanted to write the this in my previous post but i had hopes you are not a price exploiter.

disclaimer:
you pay in the currency Steam presents to you for the country you are physically residing in. per SSA everything else is price exploitation and will lead to an account suspension.

and if you wanna drag on price comparisons, please do so with a significant list of random games and do not base your argument on non-empirical research f.e. a single AAA publisher game

the price is not 30/40% higher if you pay in ILS.
it is approx. average +7-8% compared to USD.
that is what the usage of Valves price recommendations will result in.
AAA publishers do of course not use Valves price recommendations.

To compare price, you can also use steamdb.
https://steamdb.info/app/620/
Change "620" to appID of the game you want to check.

Prices are determined by the publisher, not Steam. If the publisher is charging more for another country that is their decision to do so.

Do keep in mind what you're attempting to do will put your account at risk. Valve is contractually obligated to charge you for the predetermined price for where you reside. If you take steps to circumvent that they will lock your account.
