If you're willing to commit for 2 years, this deal offers excellent value, coming in at $1.99 per month ($53.73 overall plus tax). There's also a 30-day money-back guarantee so you can make sure it works for you.

NordVPN Basic | 2 years + 3 months free | $3.09/mo
Save up to 73%: NordVPN Basic is NordVPN's entry-level plan, but it's still excellent and our #1 VPN overall.

The 2-year plan will cost you $3.09 per month ($83.43 overall plus tax) and includes 3 months free.

You'll get full access to the VPN with no bells or whistles. You'll also have 30 days to claim a refund if it's not right for you.

Save 90%: If you're looking for a VPN that balances value with speed, unblocking power, and solid security, then PrivadoVPN is your match made in heaven. Plus, when you sign up for a 2-year plan, you'll get an extra 3 months for free. At $1.11 per month, it's incredibly cheap – just $30 all-in.

Proton VPN | 2 years | $3.59/mo
Save 64%: Proton VPN is one of the most well-respected privacy providers around, but one thing it's not known for is being cheap. This price isn't the cheapest on this list, but you'll get everything Proton VPN has to offer – so it's still a great deal.

It's exclusive to Tom's Guide, and you won't find it cheaper anywhere else. It starts at $3.59 per month ($86.11 all-in) – and again, there's a 30-day refund period.

Private Internet Access | 2 years + 2 months FREE | $2.19/mo
Save up to 82%: Private Internet Access is a super-customizable VPN that's perfect for experts. Features like strong encryption and port forwarding are great for staying safe when torrenting, but the price is the biggest draw right now. At $2.19 per month ($56.94 overall), which includes 2 months free, it's an absolute steal.

CyberGhost | 2 years + 2 months FREE | $2.19/mo
Save 83%: If you don't mind signing up for two years at a time, this CyberGhost deal is offering incredible savings on a great streaming-focused VPN. CyberGhost appears to regularly fluctuate between a lower price and this one of $2.19 per month ($56.94 overall), but a 45-day refund period means you've got a ton of time to test it out.

Norton VPN Standard | 1 year | $2.50/mo
Norton VPN has come on leaps and bounds in the last year or so, and it can finally compete with the big players. We've also got an exclusive for Tom's Guide readers – Norton VPN Standard is available for $2.50 per month ($29.99 up front for 12 months of service). It's fast, very private, and comes with the backing of one of the biggest names in cybersecurity.

Hide.me | 2 years + 3 months FREE | $2.39/mo
Save 76%: Hide.me is a great all-round VPN, and just like PIA, it offers plenty of customization for those who know how to use it. The current deal offers a great price on the 2-year plan, coming in at $2.39 per month ($64.74 overall), and comes with a 30-day money-back guarantee, plus 3 extra months for free.

IPVanish | 2 years | $3.29/mo
Save 78%: This deal from IPVanish isn't the cheapest on this list, but is worth checking out. For $3.29 per month ($85.97 up front) you get an award winning threat protection, unlimited device protection, and a 3 GB eSIM. In our testing IPVanish was a very fast provider, delivering speeds of up to 770 Mbps. So if you're after an eSIM, this deal is worth considering.

ExpressVPN | 24 months + 4 months FREE | $4.99/mo
Save 64%: ExpressVPN isn't well-known for offering bargain deals, but the introduction of its new 2-year plan has certainly made a difference. At $4.99 per month ($139.72 overall), it's still quite an outlay, but it's perfect for beginners and offers excellent privacy credentials. Plus, you'll have a 30-day money-back guarantee to test it out with.

NordLayer | 12 months | from $8/mo | 20% off
Not only a great consumer VPN in NordVPN, Nord Security also provides NordLayer, its business VPN. The basic plan is great value at just $8/mo per person, although that does go up to $11/mo if you want a dedicated server with a fixed IP (which you probably do). Enterprise customers are served on a quote basis.

Perimeter 81 | 12 months | $8/mo | 20% off
Perimeter 81 is the best business VPN you can buy. There are three plans to pick from to suit the number of users you have, starting from only $8 per team member per month. And, whatever tier you go for, you can expect great customer support alongside excellent business-focused functionality.

TunnelBear | 3 years | $3.33/mo. | 50% off
TunnelBear is a simple, user-friendly VPN service, and while it's nowhere near as powerful as my top picks, it's decent value. Currently, if you sign up for a 3-year plan, you'll pay just $3.33 per month, which works out at 50% off – but I'd recommend choosing a higher-rated provider like NordVPN, Surfshark, ExpressVPN or PIA.

StrongVPN| 1 year | $3.97/mo | FREE cloud storage
StrongVPN is a reliable VPN that's improved a lot in recent times, and this deal is fairly good value. At $3.97 per month you may find that it suits your particular needs, but again, I'd recommend a better overall service.

Windscribe Pro | 1 year | $5.75/mo
Windscribe Pro is the paid version of the VPN product. That brings access to 112 cities across 69 countries and the comfort that the Pro servers are always less crowded than the free ones, so you're guaranteed a faster VPN experience. Tempted to upgrade? Windscribe Pro is currently $5.75 per month ($69 up front) but we've seen it drop lower.
