Cyber Monday is the best time to get your hands on a bargain, especially if you didn't take advantage of Black Friday deals. Just like many other companies, VPN providers are not immune to the allure of the Cyber Monday discount.

This means you can get your hands on one of the best VPNs for a fraction of their regular retail price. But, which provider has the best Cyber Monday VPN deal? Here, we explore all the discounts on offer to give you the lowdown on which VPNs are worth getting this Cyber Monday.

Which VPN has the best Cyber Monday deal?

For starters, there are tons of great VPN deals out there right now, so if you're thinking of getting your first VPN, or even switching from one VPN provider to another, this is the perfect time to do so.

In terms of who has the best deal, that's hard to say. If you want a deal that will only get better as you use it, FastestVPN has a deal for a lifetime VPN, meaning you can pay just one lump sum of just $23 with the code BFCM24 and you'll get to use a VPN for life. However, while it's a decent VPN, it can't compete with the very best.

There are a couple of VPN providers that have put on never-before-seen deals for this Cyber Monday. This includes ExpressVPN, which has discounted its VPN for the first time ever, from $5.32 to $4.99. There's also Proton VPN, which has reduced its price below $3 – something that's never happened before.

If it's the absolute cheapest deal you're after, then there are a couple of VPNs available for under $2 per month. First, is the best cheap VPN in our testing, Surfshark, which is available for $1.99 per month (usually $2.19). Privado VPN is even lower at $1.11 per month. There's also Private Internet Access and CyberGhost which have both reduced their prices to $2.03 per month. While this may not be under $2, it's close enough.

Some VPN providers are offering freebies as part of their Cyber Monday deals, whether this be free months on your subscription term or even free added extras. Our top-rated VPN, NordVPN, is currently offering three months extra free on its two year contract, working out at $2.99 per month ($80.73). Likewise, Hide.me is offering two years plus 3 months free for an upfront price of $61.83, working out at $2.29 per month.
