Best regional prices: set up Shopping Route
Shopping Route sends a curated list of travel and booking domains through a dedicated relay in a specific country, because those sites often price the same room, seat, or rental differently depending on the visitor's IP geolocation.
Quick answer
Open Settings, enable Best regional prices, pick a region (Malaysia for hotels, Brazil for car rentals, Colombia for flights and hotels), and reconnect. Only the domains on that region's list switch relay; everything else keeps using your main VPN connection.
What Shopping Route does
Booking, travel, and rental sites frequently show different prices to the same traveler depending on which country their connection appears to come from. Shopping Route targets that specific pattern instead of changing your whole VPN exit.
Only domains on the selected region's curated list — hotel booking, OTA, metasearch, car rental, or airline sites — are routed through the dedicated country relay. Everything else you browse keeps using your normal GhostMesh connection or your direct network, unchanged.
How to enable it
Shopping Route is available on the Windows desktop client, in Settings under Best regional prices.
Checklist
- ✓Open the GhostMesh desktop app and go to Settings.
- ✓Enable the Best regional prices toggle.
- ✓Choose a region: Malaysia, Brazil, or Colombia.
- ✓Leave server selection on automatic, or pick a specific relay manually.
- ✓Reconnect so the new routing rules apply.
What each region covers
Each region targets the category of site where that country's pricing tends to help the most. The lists are curated and best-effort — sites change their geolocation and pricing logic without notice, so treat this as a starting point, not a guarantee.
| Region | Best for | Example sites |
|---|---|---|
| Malaysia | Hotel and accommodation booking | Booking.com, Agoda, Hotels.com, Trivago |
| Brazil | Car rental | Rentalcars.com, Localiza, Discover Cars, Europcar |
| Colombia | Flights and South American hotels | Skyscanner, Despegar, Avianca, LATAM |
FAQ
Will Shopping Route change the price I see on every site?
No. Only domains on the selected region's list are routed through the dedicated relay. Sites not on that list keep using your normal connection, and pricing behavior on any given site can change without notice.
Does Shopping Route slow down my main VPN connection?
No. It runs as a separate relay just for the matched domains, so your main browsing traffic is unaffected. If the dedicated relay is unavailable, matched sites fall back to your current connection instead of failing.
Is Shopping Route available on Android or Linux?
Not yet. It currently ships on the Windows desktop client only.
