IPVanish now offers 150 server locations worldwide, in a "key milestone" for the VPN. IPVanish is a long-term challenger to the best VPNs and it has steadily made some impressive upgrades to its server infrastructure over the last year.

Alongside new locations, IPVanish has improved speeds, added extra servers, and built out its RAM-only server network.

150+ locations worldwide

IPVanish now offers more than 150 server locations worldwide, more than Surfshark, Windscribe, and CyberGhost.

Recently added locations include:

  • Calgary, Canada
  • Berlin, Germany
  • Edinburgh, Scotland
  • Detroit, US
  • Salt Lake City, US

The total IPVanish server network exceeds 3,400 servers, with more than 1,000 added in the last year. These cover both new and existing, high-demand, locations, and 56,000+ IP addresses are available to IPVanish users.

Additional servers help improve speeds and reliability by reducing congestion and giving users the option to connect to a server closer to where they're physically located – the less distance your data has to travel, the better your VPN performance will be.

In our most recent round of testing, IPVanish recorded speeds of 742 Mbps. This doesn't make it one of the fastest VPNs out there, but speeds are more than good enough for 4K streaming, gaming, and browsing.

IPVanish said its recent upgrades have focused on North America and Europe, following on from 2024 updates to its servers in Africa, Asia, and South America.

Atlanta, Amsterdam, Frankfurt, New York, Chicago, and Toronto are "long-standing hub locations" and are some of IPVanish's "most-used server locations globally."

Subbu Sthanu, General Manager, Consumer Cybersecurity at IPVanish, said: "IPVanish is dedicated to continually expanding our server network, enabling us to offer customers the fastest VPN speeds at home and while traveling."

"Reaching 150 server locations is an important milestone, but it’s also part of a much larger investment in the future of the IPVanish network," Sthanu added.

880+ RAM-only servers

As well as its regular servers, IPVanish has 880+ RAM-only servers, representing 35% of its total network.

RAM-only servers don't rely on hard drives or SSD storage. Data is not permanently stored on the server – instead, it's wiped on shutdown. The amount of data collected and stored is also minimal, thanks to IPVanish's strict, audited no-logs policy.

The 880+ RAM-only servers cover 25 locations, with 13 of those in the US. RAM-only servers are available across all IPVanish platforms, including Windows, Mac, Android, and iOS, and smart TVs. Within the app, you can filter your server list so only RAM-only locations are shown.

RAM-only rollout began in June 2025, and IPVanish wants to transition to 100% RAM-only servers by 2027.

IPVanish's upgrades are a welcome, and impressive, step forward. The VPN is a highly secure, affordable, and capable alternative to some of the major names in the industry.

A two-year IPVanish plan starts at $2.19 per month ($52.56 upfront, pre-tax) and comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee.
