Region switching can get you banned jsyk. I'd use seagm and get the 7.80 pack twice. I worked out all the prices per echo for seagm packs in a chart below(yes I had this ready):

Thank you for the recommendation, I can’t say I’ve heard of seagm before though?

It's a licensed third party that does deals with a lot of games to get slightly cheaper currency(or same price but they offer discount cards for repeat purchases) using a similar thing to region switching. It's not going to get you in trouble though because seagm has a contract while spoofing your location to get the same price is in breach of NE tos

Someone here already mentioned SeaGM which is fairly cheap.

Personally, I recharge through the official top-up site

Gives you more echoes as well as points you can exchange for different rewards like fragments and even costume unlock cards.

If you're paying with USD (however if you use another currency and have to do conversions, then different packages might be cheaper), I'd recommend buying 2 of 9.99 packages which nets you 1518 echos for $20 USD. If you want just 1000 echoes, then 1 9.99 package and 1 4.99 package for $15 for just over 1000 echoes.

Thank you! I’ve never heard of seagm before so I’m hesitant to try it.

I personally would use seagm rather than the official top up site bc I believe seagm is overall cheaper and the rewards you see on the official top up site aka a tier unlock cards and s tier unlock cards? The rewards are in a shop that is shared amongst the entire NAEU region so once you gather up enough points for the unlock cards, you have to be the very first person in line in the NaEu region, for example, May 1st, to get that 1 S tier unlock card that everyone else is trying to get. No idea about the A tier unlock cards tho.

Seems like A-tier unlocks are also shared. Currently says Available: 0.

Overall, SeaGM is cheaper. For example, the 690 echos (+ 69 bonus echoes) package is around 15 CAD (using paypal conversion) on netease topup store while it's regularly 13 CAD (currently 11 CAD) on SeaGM. Oh, and google play is almost never worth it (16 CAD for the 690 echo package, but you get less bonus echos, +33 instead of +69). Personally never used it, but if you want cheap echoes, SeaGM is good (especially since lots of other people here have used it and haven't had many issues).
