  If it helps, the GBP prices for the lower amounts are as follows:
  
  £5 will get you 7,000. (Old 8,000)
  £10 will get you 14,000. (Old 16,000)
  
  It is actually UNDER the conversion rate now, which is quite sneaky of them.

  
  
  Looooool what?
  
  So NA Nexon is trying to make foreign (as in, not US people) pay more for Nexon cash? No wonder why America easily are one of the most disliked countries in the world.

  Yes blame Nexon for people's hatred of America, that is incredibly short sighted. A Korean company should not influence people's decision of America.
  
  EDIT: And not that i am defending them or anything, but there are fees involved with these cards. I am surprised they didn't remedy this earlier.

  Not really blaming Nexon for people's hatred of America. However... America is known to take advantage of people for money for quite a while now, and NA Nexon is under America, so it does have some influences.

  Great. First, exchange rates go to hell, now this. Around 3 years ago, 10$ was ~23 in my country's currency. Now, they want me to pay 10€ which would be over 40 right now D:

  This doesn't change anything for me since I was already getting fucked in the ass (without lube), paying ~130 CAD for 100k NX for quite some time now. (via Steam)

  CDN:
  Old Value: 50,000 NX
  New Value: 39,000 NX

  
  ...
  
  
  My first thought was "Jesus fucking OUCH" but then I remembered that
  $1 USD = $1.21 CAD
  and
  $50 USD = $60.42 CAD
  ...JESUS FUCKING OUCH
  
  

  There is no impact to cards that are in USD amounts

  
  So a $25 CAD KK card will still get me 25kNX? At least that's safe.
  
  Economics are weird yo

  No, because that's a CAD card. A 25$ CAD KK card will get you 19,500 NX.
  
  It's also worth noting that every card bought before this change WILL be affected as well.
  e.g. if you bought a 25$ KK using CAD 6 months ago, it will now only give you 19,500 NX.

  Its perfectly fair for them to lower the NX gained based on the exchange rate, however they went below that which is wrong. $50 Canadian is $41 USD, therefore a Canadian 50k card should give you 41k NX, because even if it costs more in their currency they're still spending less globally speaking. On the other side, £50 is $76, so a 50k card from England should get you 76k NX, because globally speaking they're paying more.
  
  I'm not saying they aren't doing it based on greed, they obviously are. However that doesn't make it unfair. What is unfair is they got the exchange rates fucked up, if they're going to do this they should do it right.

  I don't mind too much, but knowing nexon, once CAD goes above USD, I doubt they'll change the prices again. I think the rates atm will be set for a few years just because CAD is currently weak. I'm royally never buying nx again. Seriously, how bout the thousands of NX I overpaid way before Karma came about (when i had to pay 30 + tax for a 25k nx card while the CAD was stronger than USD)? If they want it fair at least set a program so that the nx: currency ratios get updated biweekly or monthly, or else it really wouldn't be fair to take advantage of a weak canadian dollar atm.

  Not only that but exchange rates are pretty dynamic. In 6 months the canadian dollar might be above US for all we know (realistically unlikely but just an example). It's like how books have a canadian and US price on the back and they never get adjusted for exchange rate even if canadian currency is stronger (this actually caused a whole thing a few years back).
