The Burger Parity Score (BPS) measures how expensive a country is compared to the global average using real product prices — from a Big Mac to an iPhone 15. A score of 100 means the country is exactly at the global average. Below 100 means cheaper, above means more expensive. Unlike abstract economic indices, BPS uses products you recognize to make the comparison instantly intuitive.
Learn how we calculate the score →The Burger Parity Score measures how expensive a country is compared to the global average using real product prices. A score of 100 means average, below 100 means cheaper, above 100 means more expensive.
The BPS basket includes 6 globally standardized products: Big Mac, Starbucks Latte (Tall), iPhone 15 128GB, Coca-Cola 330ml, Netflix Standard Plan, and UberX 5km ride.
Product prices and exchange rates are updated regularly. Scores are recalculated whenever new data is available.
Based on our BPS calculations, countries like India and Japan tend to have lower scores, indicating cheaper overall prices for standardized global products.
While the Big Mac Index uses only one product, the Burger Parity Score uses a basket of 6 products across food, tech, entertainment, and services for a more comprehensive comparison.
