I don't understand. Holiday24 is supposed to give you 2 years of humble choice or just one year?
If it's just one year it's not much of a discount because each month is I think 9€
Comment has been collapsed.
Ok, that would be 7.75 euros a month. Better that than nothing.
Comment has been collapsed.
You said that as if all the other bundles out there nowadays arent 15 usd or 20 usd or higher.
Humble Choice at full price still remains the best bang for your buck.
Comment has been collapsed.
It's 9,99€ a month, so you get a 25 % off on an already greatly priced plan, you save nearly 30€, enough to buy a non-bundled AAA game like Cyberpunk 2077 on discount, how's that not a good deal ?! Jeez, a burger menu costs more.

Can someone show how those "credits" look after you redeem the gift?
Comment has been collapsed.
Go to settings and it will show when the next payment will occur for Humble Choice, which represents the month after your annual subscription ends. If you applied the gift it should show an extra year to the next payment date for Humble Choice.
Comment has been collapsed.
I still can't understand how that ties with what OP and people here mean by credits.
Comment has been collapsed.
1 month where you claimed the bundle = 1 credit
so 99usd buys you 12 credits which you can redeem for 12 months ( you ar abke to pause so you can choose which months u want.
Comment has been collapsed.
I can understand that. But I wanted to know how it actually displays on the Humble page.
Comment has been collapsed.
I will refer you back to Bigshrimp's post, it is clearly stated there.
Below is mine before buying the 99 USD deal, after it will say 16 instead of 4

Kudos to you Provence-san, and thanks!
Been skipping almost every month this past year but eh, maybe something good will come up.
Comment has been collapsed.
I guess it's for active members. My price is 109€. I'm currently inactive, and I bought like 2 choices this year.
Edit: nevermind, I forget the code. It's 93€ to me as well.
Comment has been collapsed.
I think it's still cheaper to wait for end of month coupons.
Especially first half of this year wasn't particularly good, but still ended up ~78€ vs 93€.
So extra month and a half for being patient.
Comment has been collapsed.
How many coupons have there been in the second half of the year? I know there was the 6 month offer without skipping, but other than that?
Comment has been collapsed.
It's a bit cheaper but especially folks who like to pause benefit from this option.
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm pretty sure it's regionally skewed, it was a special month when I got a 1€ coupon in the years I went without an annual sub. Got a 3€ one exactly once, lol.
Comment has been collapsed.
End of month coupons don't always occur, that is not to say it's a thing of the past, given how little such offers were on the table of late.
Comment has been collapsed.
Hi,
Thanks!
I bought and got the gift by e-mail, my next billing date is December 31. If I activate the gift after redeeming the next month, it will activate the 1 year and NOT auto charge in the day it would. Right?
Comment has been collapsed.
It's good to think in terms of Choice credits - with anual subscrition you will get 12 credits (12 times to claim the Choice).
If you have 6 month for 8$ I think it's better to wait until you'll use the last month of that offer and in January you can redeem gift subscription - so you'll be able to start using this offer.

Hi,
Thanks for the reply. My question was if HumbleBundle is going to charge me another year (my charging date is 31th December), if I activate this gift mid December.
I should contact them to make sure they won't auto charge, considering I already bought this deal and got the the gift saved in my e-mail to activate after I get the December bundle.
Comment has been collapsed.
Yes, if you'll activate subscription this month (December) you'll not be required to pay for something else.
But you'll need to wait for the next Choice to be revealed (if you didn't activate November's Choice) and if you don't have any other offers (like 6 months for $8), feel free to activate gift and you'll not be extra-charged for Choice this month (and next 11 months :) ).
Comment has been collapsed.
So if I currently have the 6.50€ coupon during six months from july to december and I were to pick this offer, how does it apply? Do I lose the discount for december?
Comment has been collapsed.
Buy the year as a gift option, you'll receive a gift link.
Use the rest of your coupon's run time as usual.
After it's gone, use the gift link and activate it on your account.
You now have 12 "free" months and fully used your existing coupon.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks for the info, I wasn't sure I would be able to do redeem the gift link after the time was up for the offer.
Comment has been collapsed.
Can I activate it now even if I have purchased the November monthly?
Comment has been collapsed.
Simply put, yes.
If you didn't purchase, it would be advised to wait until a month you want to get to redeem the yearly sub gift.

Where can I find this promo code on the humble website? Just out of curiosity. I can't find it there.
Comment has been collapsed.
Honestly, I have no idea if there is one. The promotion's end date, I took from this comment here. I guessed the coupon code once HB Choice timer reset at 1800 UTC and it just worked. I was hoping to find an official source (and the end date) for this coupon code but I have yet to see a "source" floating in the common areas I checked. Maybe it was sent via newsletter but I don't have an email signed up to HB newsletters.

I've got the 2 first options checked for the mail contact and I didn't get anything. Weird, how they don't promote their promotions at all.

I usually buy 2-3 choices each year, this deal should be for 29USD to be worth it...
Comment has been collapsed.
You know you can skip, so this would last you 4-6 years then, right? But sure, let's get 12x8=96 games for $29... 🙄
Comment has been collapsed.
I can skip even if I buy it for this discounted price? I would expect that obvious downside to the discounted price would be impossibility to skip. That would make sense (for Humble).
Comment has been collapsed.
With this one you can skip. It's basically 12 tokens you can use whenever you want.
Comment has been collapsed.
Thanks. But I now I've read that it will automatically unpause this month (which has very bad games, I would have to give all 8 away).
So I'm not buying it and will wait if they offer it again for Christmas or later...
Comment has been collapsed.
You can buy it as a gift and redeem that later whenever you want.
Comment has been collapsed.
Maybe I will use this promotion. My main problem is that last time i checked it used default payment method (which means presaved PayPal for me) = I can not set in Paypal to use original value not PLN. Last time I felt into this trap and bought it with big provision from paypal to convert USD/Euro into PLN (it was still cheaper but some of promotion was just wasted). It is very stupid as usually it ask you how to pay but not for this one. I guess if I decide to buy this time I will try to delete all saved methods of payments and then I will try to pay :).
It is always much worse to convert using Paypal or bank then using conversion directly by credit/debit card.
EDIT: Heh, even this is blocked.. When I try to delete my default payments it says my subscription will be canceled. I guess it is the only option to pay without exchange rates... But I think currently there is possibility to check not default payment method. Probably it was changed before my last time. Hope it will work :)

Co ci ten HB z paypalem wyrabia? Ja mam ustawioną domyślną płatność na paypala i zawsze mi grzecznie ściąga wszystko bezpośrednio w euro.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ja nie mam konta walutowego tylko podpinam dobra karte do konwersji wczesniej to byla Visa w jednym banku, ale jak mi zlikwidowali, to uzywam revoulta (niestety ma ta wade ze w weekend 1% i trzeba kupowac poza weekendem ;) ). Paypal wycwanil sie i domyslnie konwertuje chyba ze mu sie porzy kazdej transakcji wejdzie i zmieni ze chce placic w orygininalnej walucie. Wiec jesli HB pobiera z automatu to Paypal zamiast karta przewalutowuje i wychodzi drogo.
Ps. Nie chce mi sie bawic w kupowanie walut. Ale mozesz sie podzielic swoim rozwiazaniem moze przemysle :).
Comment has been collapsed.
Możesz zmienić domyślną walutę każdej karty, tylko trzeba support o to pomęczyć i to mi zawsze wcześniej działało - aczkolwiek przyznaję że nie wiem jak to jest z tym automatem TERAZ bo ostatnio zawsze mam na koncie trochę eurosów więc i tak mi pobiera z konta jakby co.
EDIT: z tego co widzę to nawet powinno się dać zrobić to bez konieczności jazdy z supportem, dawniej musiałem jeszcze ich o to wypraszać.
Comment has been collapsed.
Ale mowisz o zmianie domyslej waluty karty gdzie? W Paypalu, Revoult czy banku:)? Bo w Paypalu kiedys tak bylo obecnie mam wrazenie ze PayPal wymusza PLN na mnie i za kazdym razem musze zmieniac.
EDIT: a tak widze w Paypalu pod karta mozliwosc ustawienia waluty. Mam PLN, rozumiem ze jak ustawie inna w ktorej akurat place to nie bedzie konwertowalo? Wiec pozostanie tylko kwestia zeby placic w tej samej i zmieniac miedzy Euro i USD w Paypalu :)?
Comment has been collapsed.
No to zmieniasz (w Paypalu) walutę karty na EUR, ustawiasz ją jako preferowane źródło płatności online i następnym razem jak będzie automatyczna płatność z HB to paypal POWINIEN :) próbować ściągać z tej karty EUR, czyli ewentualna konwersja waluty będzie następować w twoim banku
Nie wiem jak się paypal zapatruje na ciągłe wachlowanie kartą między EUR i USD, teoretycznie powinno się to dać zrobić ale nie wiem czy nie ma przypadkiem na to jakiś widełek czasowych
Comment has been collapsed.
Mysle ze dla bezpieczenstwa tak zrobie przy kupowaniu z HB tego rocznego jutro po 24:). Chyba da sie normalnie wybrac, niemniej lepiej sie zabezpieczyc:). Dzięki za pomysl.
Ps. Zauwazylem ze zwykle ceny w USD sa odrobine nizsze niz w Euro stad place jedna albo 2, ale w przypadku HB bedzie bral w Euro :).
Comment has been collapsed.
Dlatego koniec końców nie rozumiem czemu upierasz się kupować przez paypala zamiast bezpośrednio jakąś kartą wielowalutową :)
Ja jeśli kupuję przez PP to dlatego że miewam tam na koncie trochę euro do wydania. Ale jak nie mam albo płacę usd to płacę bezpośrednio multi currency kartą i tyle w temacie

Revolut: You can create new account in € and exchange some amount of money to € during the working days (like 20€ or so).
On checkout Revolut will try pay from € account, but if there will be not enogth money it will use your default (base currency, so fee will be applied if transaction will be on weekends) account.

Oh, thx for idea. I think it is good idea and will probably do in future in that way. Although problem probably will stays if it will go through PayPal (if card will be connected to paypal). Maybe I should just use a card and do as you said.
Comment has been collapsed.
The only limitation of PayPal is that you can have 1 account that conected to a specific card and Humble only sees the email of PayPal, but not the card so you will be fine.
Comment has been collapsed.
One moment, to be sure I understand it correctly. You mean to make bank account in Euro in Revolut (next to existing in PLN) and I will get virtual card for this account too? And then if I connect this card to Paypal and will use it it will take Euro by default?
Comment has been collapsed.
It will be another account in € and by default it will be the same card (card that you use to pay in PLN). By default, Revolut doesn't require switching currency - the payment will be from a currency account that will be requested by the shop.
Also, you can create a new virtual card and in card settings set (limit) the currency (i.e. set only €) and add this card to PayPal or directly on Humble.
If you'll go with PayPal, after you'll add it to Humble go to the PayPay settings ("gear", Payments, click on Humble, click on the Funding source, click on See Conversion options and select Revolut card - this is to make sure that PayPal will not do some exchanges and payment request will be directly sent to bank)
I have a Free account with "default" virtual card with "default" settings (all currency accounts are used with one card - I have €, USD and TRY accounts, and I'm able to pay in these currencies without doing anything in Revolut - the shop charges me in correct currency).
Comment has been collapsed.
OMG. You are a savior :). I did not know that I can set who will convert money for automatic payments. I mean long time ago you could do it generally for all transactions, then it was removed as far I know. But I guess you can do it for each seller in automatic payments (like Humble).
I understand that after changing it bank always convert my payments in Euro or USD for such automatic payments and I will not pay Paypal provision for converting? Additionally if I will have Euro and PLN account in my Revolut it will try yo pay from the right account?
Thank you very much for pointing me such option :).
Comment has been collapsed.
If you'll set that option (set that PayPal will not convert anything and will go to your bank account), your Revolut card will work like that (the simple explanation):
- On purchase, Humble will request money from your PayPal account;
- Payment request will go to Revolut (where you'll have 2 accounts in PLN and EUR)
- Revolut will use your EUR account (it will see the currency in the request and will use correct account (EUR in your case) if there will be enough money, if not - it will use part of money from your PLN account (do the exchange etc))
- PayPal will receive your money and will send them to Humble.
- Humble thinks that you are amazing customer :)
Comment has been collapsed.
This all looks great but I have one question - what about card currency settings in paypal you need to declare for every card?
What if, for example, you have card set in PP for USD and then you pay something in EUR? Wouldn't paypal try to convert it?
Comment has been collapsed.
I'm not sure how card currency works in PP (i.e. Turkish Lira card linked to PP, but currency set to USD) I assume it will work depends on setting you have for merchant.
I.e. you have card in PLN (single currency), and you are buying in EUR from PP's USD card (card that only have PLN) and setting is set to convert with PP - EUR will be converted to USD and sent to your bank, and bank will convert USD to PLN
If you have multi currency card (USD, PLN, EUR) and setting of "who will convert" set to bank - then you'll be charged in EUR and that is it (I assume card currency will be ignored and it's used in different scenarios).
Comment has been collapsed.
If you have multi currency card (USD, PLN, EUR) and setting of "who will convert" set to bank
Well, true, this might be set in bank, but PP doesn't know about such bank settings
(I assume card currency will be ignored and it's used in different scenarios).
That's the point - I really don't understand where your assumption come from.

Picked it, nice, the last sub i bought with such discount expired last month, so was waiting for this.

I did the holiday deal like 2 years ago for $89 I think, and I still have like 4 months left of it. lol. I just own way too many games and most of the bundles have been pretty weak imo.
I thought about doing this again for the $99 but figured I'll save my money since who knows when I'll actually redeem a month.

Same. Just checked mine, and I'm good until August 2025. Probably will pause at least another 4 times, so can wait for the same deal next year. Probably.

I was looking for it for a while. I saw the link, but after I pressed it, I got here, https://www.humblebundle.com/membership/checkout?gift=true and I was afraid of pressing and automatically get charged with a full year without the code

Buy it as a gift link and gift it to yourself after the December bundle launches if you don't want the current month's games.

You're able to purchase it as a gift, even if you have an active HB subscription. Just immediately claim it and it gives you additional monthly credits on top of whatever plan you have now. I believe claiming the gift link will immediately charge you with 1 credit for the current month (if you have not yet purchased it) so wait until there's a month you plan on purchasing before claiming. Gift links supposedly last forever and you can stack up to 24 months worth of credit at a time. (Don't quote me on the "last forever" bit)
Live until Dec 2, 11:59PM PT
