Black Friday has become Cyber Monday and NordVPN has celebrated by dropping an exclusive Cyber Monday VPN deal – only available to Tom's Guide readers and our friends at TechRadar.

NordVPN has four tiers of plans to choose from – more than most other VPNs – and each tier unlocks extra features. Thanks to our exclusive deal, every two-year plan comes with four extra months free. There's also a 30-day money-back guarantee on all plans as standard.

With NordVPN Plus, you'll unlock the NordPass password manager and the excellent Threat Protection Pro – as well as all its core VPN features.

NordVPN's Black Friday deals at a glance:

  • NordVPN Basic: 2 years + 4 months free: $2.88 per month (billed as $80.73)
  • NordVPN Plus: 2 years + 4 months free: $3.75 per month (billed as $105.03)

  • NordVPN Prime: 2 years + 4 months free: $6.64 per month (billed as $186.03)

NordVPN Basic is your cheapest option, but NordVPN Plus is a huge upgrade

If you're after the cheapest NordVPN plan, then NordVPN Basic has you covered. It's $2.88 per month ($80.73 up front pre-tax).

It's our number one VPN for good reason. 1,000+ Mbps speeds, class-leading post-quantum encryption, unbeatable streaming performance, and protection for up to 10 devices.

A 28 month plan starts at $2.88 per month ($80.73 up front pre-tax). There's also a 30-day money-back guarantee (if this is your first purchase).

However I don't think it's best value NordVPN deal this Black Friday. For $0.87 per month more you can upgrade to NordVPN Plus. The inclusion of NordPass and Threat Protection Pro makes this a no-brainer.

As one of the best password managers, NordPass allows you to generate and store hundreds of secure passwords and logins. Threat Protection Pro will protect you from malware and phishing scams, alongside ads and trackers. It's powerful and performed incredibly well in our latest round of testing – there's no better VPN threat protection.

These are features I use every day, and are well worth paying a little more per month for. You'll also get all the core VPN features offered with NordVPN Basic.

Happy to spend more? NordVPN has two more plans

If you're happy to spend a few dollars more per month for extra cybersecurity features NordVPN has two more plans.

NordVPN Complete sees the addition of 1TB of encrypted cloud storage and scam call protection. It costs $4.72 per month ($132.03 up front pre-tax).

NordVPN Prime – a US-exclusive – bundles everything NordVPN has to offer, adding NordProtect. NordProtect provides up to $1 million in ID theft insurance, up to $100k in cyber extortion insurance, and dark web and credit monitoring. It's not cheap, costing $6.64 per month ($186.03 up front pre-tax).

These two deals won't be for everyone but it's great NordVPN offers them and if you're after total cybersecurity protection, they're good value.
