Which subscription tracker works in Mexico?
Local peso pricing for the large services, dollar billing for everything else, and a cash-heavy segment that changes where subscriptions live.
The short answer
Mexico gets peso pricing from the large streaming and music services and dollar pricing from nearly everything else. The result is a two-speed list: the well-known subscriptions are fixed and predictable, while the software and AI tools people have added more recently float with the exchange rate — and those are the ones growing fastest.

A two-speed subscription list
The large consumer services set a peso price. Those subscriptions are simple: a fixed amount on a fixed date, no currency question, easy to budget.
Most software, productivity and AI tools do not. They bill in dollars, and the peso amount moves.
The split matters because the second group is the one growing. A list assembled two years ago was mostly peso-priced; the same household today has added several dollar-billed tools, and the total has become less predictable without anyone changing a plan.
What to do about the floating half
Record the dollar amount for dollar-billed subscriptions. It is the only way to tell a price rise from a rate movement, and dollar-billed tools raise prices often enough for the distinction to matter.
Check whether your card adds a foreign transaction fee. Small per charge, material across a year of monthly ones, and invisible unless you look for it specifically.
Watch annual plans in dollars. A twelve-month charge in a foreign currency is the single largest exchange-rate exposure most households have, and it lands once with no warning.
Where subscriptions hide here
Both app stores. Peso pricing usually applies here too, and the charge still arrives as a single combined line with no breakdown.
Domiciliación arrangements. Recurring bank charges set up once and rarely revisited — the local version of the arrangement everyone forgets.
Cards used mainly for subscriptions. If a card exists largely to pay for services, its statement is the one you read least and the one holding the most.
A card that was replaced. Some subscriptions migrate, others do not. Those left behind are the least visible thing in anyone's finances.
Tooling
Bank-linked subscription trackers do not meaningfully serve this market. Some Mexican banking apps offer merchant search, which is free and worth using for the initial audit.
Beyond that, the sources above cover the ground in about twenty minutes once, and a manual list holds the result across both the peso and dollar halves — which is the part no single source does for you.
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.

Are subscription prices in pesos or dollars?+
Both, and the split matters. Large streaming and music services set a peso price, so those are fixed and predictable. Most software, productivity and AI tools bill in dollars and float with the exchange rate — and that second group is the one growing fastest.
How do I tell a price rise from a currency movement?+
Record the dollar amount for dollar-billed subscriptions. Converted into pesos, a genuine increase arrives mixed into exchange-rate noise; in the original currency it is unambiguous. Dollar-billed tools raise prices often enough for the distinction to matter.
What is the biggest exchange-rate exposure?+
An annual plan billed in dollars. It is a twelve-month charge in a foreign currency that lands once with no warning, which makes it the largest single exposure most households have — and the easiest to be surprised by.
Where do subscriptions hide in Mexico?+
The two app stores first, since a combined charge never itemises. Then domiciliación arrangements set up once and forgotten, any card used mainly for subscriptions, and a card that was replaced while some subscriptions stayed behind on the old one.
