What the free plan is good for

The free plan is a complete VPN, not a demo. Here is where it earns its keep.

Safer public Wi-Fi

Hotel, airport, and cafe networks are easy places for strangers to watch traffic. The free plan encrypts your connection before it touches the network. Learn more about using a VPN on public Wi-Fi.

Hide your IP address

Websites see the address of our server instead of your home connection. That removes one signal trackers use to profile you. Our guide explains what a VPN hides and what it does not.

Real encryption, not a sample

Every account uses a modern VPN protocol on our full server network. There is no weaker tier.

Why is vpn.now free?

Running VPN servers costs real money. Most free VPNs cover that cost with ads or by selling usage data, which defeats the point of using a VPN at all.

We take a different path. We never store browsing activity, DNS queries, or traffic contents for anyone, and our transparency page lists every piece of data we keep.

To keep the service free for everyone, speed is capped at up to 10 Mbps. That is enough for safer browsing, email, and most everyday tasks.

Free VPN questions, answered straight

Is the vpn.now free plan really free?

Yes. You create an account with an email address and a password. We never ask for a card number, and the free plan does not expire. Paid subscribers fund the network, so we do not need ads or data sales to cover costs.

What is the catch with the free plan?

The limit is simple: one device at a time. You get the same encryption, the same modern VPN protocol, and the same server network as paid plans. If you want to cover more devices, you can upgrade whenever you like.

Is the free plan slower than paid plans?

We do not artificially slow down free connections. Your speed depends on the same things it does for everyone: your own connection, your distance to the server, and how busy that server is.

Do you show ads or sell data on the free plan?

No. There are no ads anywhere in vpn.now, and we never store browsing activity, DNS queries, or traffic contents for any user, free or paid. Our transparency page lists every piece of data we keep.

Can I upgrade from free to a paid plan later?

Yes. You can upgrade from your account dashboard at any time. Your devices and settings carry over, and every paid plan includes a 30 day money back guarantee.
