Recently, we have witnessed that large companies have started to transact in Turkish Lira. One of these companies will be the Battle.net system, which includes the games of Activision Blizzard. According to the statement, Battle.net will soon be trading in Turkish Lira.
What is the exchange rate for Battle.net Turkish Lira payments?
In the statement made, it was announced that as of May 4, 2022, transactions can be made in currencies including Turkish Lira.
Of course, it is a very pleasing event to be able to pay with our own currency. But there is a question that players in Turkey are more curious about. And that’s how much Blizzard will get the exchange rate. Because there was no explanation about the exchange rate in this announcement. We will probably see live how you get the exchange rate as of May 4, 2022. The explanation given is as follows;
“From May 4, 2022, new currencies will be available on Battle.net. Battle.net regularly reviews the currencies we support on the platform. After the latest evaluation, we plan to add a few new currencies to the platform. These new currencies are as follows;

We expect these changes to be released on or after May 4, 2022. If you have any other questions or concerns, feel free to contact customer support.”
Update: The official statement by Blizzar has also come.
“Activision Blizzard introduces the Battle.net platform to the Turkish lira. The new currency option is expected to go live on or after May 4, 2022. From this date, players in Turkey will be able to transact and interact with Activision Blizzard game content on local pricing without converting them to foreign currency. .
Considering the high demand from Turkish players, adding Turkish lira to Battle.net offers flexibility to enhance their gaming experience. The new pricing will apply to all Activision Blizzard games on the Battle.net platform, including Call of Duty®, World of Warcraft®, Overwatch®, Diablo® and Hearthstone®.
With this update, Battle.net balance currently held by players in Turkey will be converted to Turkish lira at the latest spot exchange rate. In addition, there will be some adjustments in prices. In addition, World of Warcraft subscription will be automatically converted into Turkish lira.”
