Which subscription tracker works in Brazil?
A large domestic market with real local pricing, an instant-payments rail that changed how people pay, and foreign charges that cost more than they appear to.
The short answer
Brazil is large enough that most global services set a real price, which removes the currency problem for the bulk of a typical list. The exception is expensive: foreign-currency charges carry costs beyond the exchange rate itself, so a dollar-billed subscription costs more than the converted figure suggests — and the gap is easy to miss because it appears on the statement, not the invoice.

Most of your list is simple
Brazil is a large enough market that global services localise. Streaming, music and most consumer subscriptions set a real price, and those behave straightforwardly: fixed amount, fixed date, no currency to think about.
For the majority of a typical list, the currency discussion that dominates smaller markets simply does not apply here.
The foreign-billed minority costs more than it looks
The exception is worth understanding precisely, because it is the one place people underestimate.
A charge in foreign currency is not just converted — additional costs apply on top of the exchange rate. The amount that reaches your statement is therefore higher than the converted invoice figure, and the gap is invisible if you record what the provider charged rather than what your account paid.
Two habits follow. Record the statement amount, not the invoice amount. And treat a foreign-billed annual plan as a larger commitment than its headline suggests, because the same gap applies to the whole twelve months at once.
Instant payments changed where subscriptions live
The instant-payments rail has changed how a lot of recurring spending flows, and some subscriptions now settle through routes that look different on a statement from a traditional card charge.
The practical point is not which rail is better. It is that a card-statement audit no longer covers the ground it used to, and the second rail needs checking separately. Your banking app is the authoritative source for what it carries.
The rest of the audit
Both app stores, where local pricing usually applies and where a combined charge still never itemises.
Boleto and recurring bank arrangements, set up once and rarely revisited.
Digital bank accounts. Adoption is high here, and a household frequently runs two or three institutions. Each is a separate statement, and the one you use least is the likeliest to hold something forgotten.
Tooling
Brazilian fintech is well developed, and several banking apps categorise spending and let you search by merchant. That is free, authoritative for what it covers, and a good starting point for the initial audit.
What none of them does is span the institutions. A household with accounts at three banks and two app stores has five separate views and no single one — which is the specific gap a manual list fills.
Where SubTracker Is the Wrong Tool
You do not know what you are paying for. SubTracker has no bank connection and cannot find a subscription you did not enter. If that is your actual problem, use a bank-linked tool for one audit first — where one is available in your market — and move the list across afterwards.
You want somebody to cancel for you. SubTracker tells you what to cancel and when. The cancelling is yours.
You want fewer than about ten minutes of setup. That is roughly what entering an existing list costs. It buys a tool that never sees your account, which is a trade and not a free lunch.
Getting Started Here
The free plan tracks unlimited subscriptions with no card and no expiry, supports 25 currencies, and imports an existing list from CSV. Renewal reminders and price-change alerts are Plus features; there is no trial, because the free tier is not one.
Nothing about it is market-specific, which in most of the places below is the point: a manual tracker works identically everywhere because it asks no bank for anything.
Stop losing money to forgotten subscriptions
Track unlimited subscriptions free, forever. No card required, no bank connection.

Do global services price in reais?+
Mostly yes. Brazil is large enough that streaming, music and most consumer subscriptions set a local price, so the bulk of a typical list is fixed and predictable with no currency question at all.
Why does a foreign subscription cost more than the converted price?+
Because additional costs apply to foreign-currency charges on top of the exchange rate, so the amount reaching your statement exceeds the converted invoice figure. Record the statement amount rather than the invoice amount, or the gap stays invisible.
Does checking my card statement still find everything?+
Less than it used to. The instant-payments rail carries recurring spending that looks different on a statement from a traditional card charge, so it needs checking separately. Your banking app is authoritative for what it carries.
What if I have accounts at several banks?+
Then you have several separate views and no single one — and the account you use least is the likeliest to hold something forgotten. Banking apps categorise well here but none spans institutions, which is the specific gap a manual list fills.
