It's your chance to bag this VPN deal, with Surfshark down to a low. It's a great time to get your summer of sports streaming sorted, so don't delay.

Surfshark's usual low mark is $2.09 but it's now down at $1.99. That price is for the two-year deal on the entry-level Surfshark Starter plan which includes all you need for changing your IP address to any one of 100 countries.

That means you'll be able to tune into your regular sports streaming broadcasts wherever you are on your travels. That's going to be particularly useful for anyone heading out to watch World Cup 2026 in USA and Canada, given that World Cup football matches are not free-to-air in those regions.

A 28 month Surfshark deal starts at $1.99 per monthand comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

We rate Surfshark as the best cheap VPN, the second best VPN overall and the fastest VPN too. It's also excellent at unlocking free-to-air streaming services like BBC iPlayer, ITV, 9Now, CBC and many more.

If you want to up your digital protection a little, try the next tier up from Surfshark which is the Surfshark One plan. That includes the VPN, antivirus, Surfshark's own search engine, and an alerts system which will warn you if any of your personal or financial details get published on the internet. Let's hope that doesn't happen, though.

Surfshark One is down to $2.49 per month. That's only about $10 more over the 27-month term.

That said, the Starter plan is excellent and if all you want is the streaming and the protection, then it's enough. Save your money.

Happy streaming, enjoy your sports and TV wherever you go, and don't forget to pick your favorite shirt for World Cup 2026!
