Surfshark VPN: Worth the Price

VPNs can improve your online privacy by routing all your web traffic through an encrypted connection to a remote server. But that protection can come at a price—in the case of Surfshark VPN, in actual dollars and cents. Surfshark VPN is an Editors’ Choice winner for VPNs, and it’s also one of the most expensive. But the company does a good job of justifying that cost, with unlimited device connections, an improving and expanding product, and excellent apps. Surfshark VPN has also backed up its claims with a third-party audit. In a crowded field, this VPN continues to impress.

PRICING

Surfshark VPN’s subscription costs $12.95 per month, compared with an average price of $9.90 per month among the services we’ve tested. This puts Surfshark among the most expensive VPNs we’ve reviewed, beyond the $9.99 per month for Mozilla’s VPN or the 5 euros (equivalent to $5.03 at the time of writing) per month charged by Mullvad VPN, our most affordable Editors’ Choice VPN.

Like many VPNs, though, Surfshark VPN incentivizes long-term commitments with steep discounts. An annual plan starts at $47.88 and renews the following year for $59.76. A two-year plan costs $59.76 as well but renews at that same price every year after the first two. While that’s a bit confusing, the annual renewal price is still less than the $67.73 average for the VPNs we have reviewed. Long-term plans absolutely save you money, but we recommend starting with the shortest possible subscription to make sure the VPN is right for you, and only then decide about moving to a longer subscription plan.
