What a VPN costs month to month
The lowest month-to-month price each service shows, before tax, lowest first. Windscribe’s Build A Plan is priced per location ("$1.00 per location, per month", "$3 minimum") and is not ranked. Norton VPN sells annual plans only.
How each figure was reached
For each service, the lowest price among its plans billed one month at a time, as printed on its pricing page on the date in its section. Month-to-month plans renew at the same price on every page that states it, except PureVPN Plus: its order page charges $17.95 for the first month and its Renewal Prices page lists $15.95; Mozilla VPN’s and PrivadoVPN’s pages state no renewal wording. Taxes not included.
What a year costs after the first term
Long VPN plans charge a lower first payment; most then renew at a higher price. These are the lowest yearly renewal prices each service prints on its pricing page, lowest first. Surfshark and IPVanish state no renewal price for their long plans, Mozilla VPN none for its annual plan and PrivadoVPN none for its 12- and 24-month plans.
How each figure was reached
For each service, the lowest price its pricing page says a plan renews at every 12 months, with the plan and billing term it belongs to. Private Internet Access’s 3-year plan renews every 3 years ("Autorenews at $79 every 3 years") and is not ranked here. PureVPN Standard renews at $47.95 a year after the 2-year term and $57.95 a year after the 1-year term, as printed on each card. Taxes not included.
What you pay over 1, 2 and 3 years
What each billing term longer than a month costs by the end of year 1, 2 and 3: the first payment plus every renewal due by then. Of the 29 terms with both a first payment (one of them computed: CyberGhost 6 Months) and a renewal price, 24 cost more per month after renewal, four cost the same and one costs less (PureVPN Plus, 1-year). The other 16 print no renewal price or no first-payment total, so some or all of their totals are "Not known". Worked out from the recorded prices; nothing is ranked.

How each figure was worked out
- Every figure comes from the service tables on this page; nothing new was read for this table.
- "Paid by month 12, 24, 36" is the first payment, plus the renewal price each time the paid period runs out before the end of that month. Bonus months count toward the period. This is the same rule the VPN cost calculator uses.
- "Change at renewal" is the renewal price per month minus the first payment per month. Each is divided by the months it pays for and rounded to the cent.
- "Not known" means the page states no first-payment total, or states no renewal price and the first payment does not reach that month.
- Month-to-month plans are left out: they charge the same price every month and are in What a VPN costs month to month. Windscribe’s Build A Plan is left out as well. Taxes are not included.
- Rows follow the order of the service tables below.
How many devices each plan covers, and what it renews at
How many devices one subscription covers, as each service’s pricing page states it, next to its month-to-month price and the price its longer plans renew at after the first term. Stated limits run from 5 devices (Mozilla VPN, Norton VPN Standard and Plus) to unlimited (Surfshark, Private Internet Access, IPVanish; PrivadoVPN lists “10 Connections” and “Unlimited Devices”). PureVPN and Windscribe state no device figure on the page. Where a plan renews at more than one price, the lowest yearly one is listed first, and sorting uses the first price in each cell. Quoted words are as on each page; prices come from the service tables below, and “Not stated” means the page displays no figure. Read dates: see each seller’s section. The dataset makes no recommendation.

Prices change quietly. Deldur doesn’t.
Get an email when Deldur publishes a price change in VPN prices. Emails go out only when a post is published here: a price, plan or offer change, the weekly summary or the monthly report. Free, and every email has an unsubscribe link. Prefer a feed reader? Use the VPN prices RSS feed.
How this page works
- Each price is the US price shown on the service’s own pricing page on the date it was read, in US dollars, before tax.
- "First payment" is the amount the card says is billed at the start; "Covers" is the period it pays for, bonus months included; "Then" is the renewal price the card prints. "Not stated" means the page gives no figure.
- Not in the tables: free plans, add-ons such as dedicated IP addresses or antivirus, and business plans.
- Nothing on this page is an estimate. The one computed figure in the service tables, CyberGhost’s 6-month first payment ($6.99 × 6), is marked as computed. The table What you pay over 1, 2 and 3 years is worked out from the recorded prices, and its rule is stated under it.
- Deldur earns a commission from one service on this page: NordVPN, through the link marked “Affiliate link” in its section. That never changes a price, a table or its order. Source links are plain links to each service’s own page.
Coverage, known gaps and method
Coverage and known gaps
Not included: Mullvad, whose pricing page shows its price in euros only; TunnelBear, whose page shows only a "from" price per month; free plans (Proton VPN, Windscribe and others); add-ons such as CyberGhost’s dedicated IP and PrivadoVPN’s antivirus. Also not included: Hotspot Shield, whose pricing page shows only a per-month figure "billed annually" ($7.99) while its checkout pages show different first-year offers depending on the link followed.
Dates and sources: each section shows the date its seller’s page was last read, and its source line links to that page. A figure is recorded only as the seller’s own page shows it.
Plan shapes differ: long plans include bonus months on some services ("+ 3 EXTRA months", "+3 months"), so a "2-year" first payment covers 24 to 28 months and a "1-year" payment 12 to 15 months. CyberGhost’s 2-year card is titled "2 Years + 2 Months" while its billing line says "for first 2 years"; the billing line is used. Private Internet Access does not print the total of its 3-year first payment, and PrivadoVPN prints no first-payment total for its 12- and 24-month plans, whose cards add "+ 3 FREE" without saying what is free.
Method
Each service’s own pricing page is opened and read directly, with every billing term the page offers. The first payment, the period it covers, the renewal price and every qualifier printed on the card (bonus months, struck-through prices, sale labels, refund periods, tax notes) are recorded with the page URL and the date. Third-party comparison sites are never used as a source. A change is logged only when the service’s own page changes. If a figure on this page is wrong, the correction goes in the change log below rather than being edited silently. The ranked figures are taken from the recorded rows and are recomputed whenever a row they use changes.
This dataset is compiled and maintained by Deldur; how Deldur works explains the process.
Change log
- 2026-11-07 — Offer change — ExpressVPN 2-year plans, first payment for the first 28 months: Advanced $125.72 → $117.32 ("$4.19/mo"), Express Pro $209.72 → $201.32 ("$7.19/mo"), during the page’s "Black Friday Early Access Sale". Renewal prices ($99.95, $119.95, $199.95 a year), the Basic 2-year offer, and all 12-month and month-to-month prices are unchanged. What you pay over 1, 2 and 3 years and the overview now use the new first payments. Source: expressvpn.com/pricing.
- 2026-10-26 — Wording — Quick answers now come before the seller sections and add answers for Norton VPN; the jump links follow the new order. No figure changed.
- 2026-10-26 — PureVPN — all nine rows — term and renewal source changed: the 1-year plans now cover 12 months ("Billed $40.80 for 1 year", $72.80 and $88.80; they covered 16 months with "+4 months"), at the same first payments; the 2-year plans still cover 27 months at $58.20, $73.80 and $95.85. The cards no longer print a renewal sentence; PureVPN’s Renewal Prices page lists the same yearly renewal prices as recorded ($57.95, $69.95 and $89.95 after the 1-year plans; $47.95, $69.95 and $84.95 after the 2-year plans) and now gives the monthly ones: $12.95, $15.95 and $19.95 (Standard, Plus, Max; the Plus first month is $17.95). The Plus cards strike through $15.95 (was $17.95). What you pay over 1, 2 and 3 years: the three 1-year rows now cover 12 months; their totals are unchanged and the change at renewal is now +$1.43, −$0.24 and +$0.10 a month (Standard, Plus, Max). The order page also offers a Black Friday 5-year plan, noted in the PureVPN section and not added as rows. Source: purevpn.com/order, purevpn.com/subscription-renewal-plan.
- 2026-10-24 — Wording — the Proton VPN Plus rows in What you pay over 1, 2 and 3 years no longer repeat "VPN" and its Proton Unlimited rows now read "Proton Unlimited (Proton VPN)", and the lede of that table now says one of the 29 first payments is computed (CyberGhost 6 Months); the Devices and renewal note now points to each seller’s section for read dates.
