This page collects the deal each VPN we rate is running right now, as shown on the vendor's own offer page when you follow our link. The discount is on every card, the monthly price and the money-back window are in the table, and the order follows our overall rating, so the best deal on a weak product never outranks a good deal on a strong one.

How we check these deals

We follow our own link to each vendor and read the offer from the page a reader lands on, because that page often differs from the vendor's public pricing page. We list the discount the vendor states, never a figure of our own, and we drop any part of an offer the vendor no longer shows. The order follows our overall VPN rating, so a big discount cannot buy a better position. We earn a commission when a reader buys, which costs the reader nothing.

How to get the advertised price

Take the longest plan. Every discount here is measured against the vendor's month-to-month price and applies to its longest term. The same VPN on a monthly plan costs three to six times as much per month.

Pay up front. The monthly figure is what the plan works out to, not what you are charged each month. A two-year plan is billed once, at the start.

Check the currency at checkout. Some vendors price in your local currency, others charge everyone in US dollars or euros. The card shows the price in the currency the vendor will actually bill you in.

What happens at renewal

An introductory price is exactly that. When the first term ends, every provider on this page renews at a higher rate, and the renewal term is often shorter than the one you bought. Put a reminder in your calendar a few weeks before the end of the term: that is the moment to compare again, or to ask the vendor for a renewal discount.

Why VPN discounts are so big

A 70% or 80% discount sounds generous, but it is measured against a monthly price few people pay. The real comparison is between providers' long-plan prices, which is why the table shows the monthly figure and not just the percentage. A smaller discount on a cheaper plan can cost less than a bigger one on an expensive plan.

The refund window is part of the deal

Every provider here offers money back if you cancel early: 30 days at most, and 45 days at CyberGhost on its longer plans. It is the cheapest insurance there is. Install the app, test it from where you actually use it, and ask for the refund inside the window if it does not suit.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the best VPN deal right now?

The deal at the top of this page is on our highest-rated VPN. If price matters most, compare the monthly figures in the table: the cheapest plan is not always the biggest percentage.

Do VPN prices go up when I renew?

Yes, at every provider here. The deal price covers the first term only; renewal is charged at a higher rate. Set a reminder before the term ends so you can compare again.

Why is the discount so large?

It is measured against the vendor's month-to-month price and applies to the longest plan. That is why the monthly price is the better number to compare.

Can I get my money back?

Every provider on this page has a money-back guarantee, 30 days at most providers and 45 days at CyberGhost on its longer plans. Cancel inside the window and you get a full refund.

Are VPN prices the same in every country?

No. Some vendors charge in your local currency and others bill in US dollars or euros wherever you are. The card shows the price in the currency you will be charged in.

Are lifetime VPN deals worth it?

Be careful. A service that is never paid again has to fund itself somehow, and lifetime offers usually come from small brands. The deals on this page are from established providers with refund windows.
