Surfshark lists its price before tax and adds VAT or sales tax at checkout where it applies. NordVPN’s discount varies slightly by country: 78% in the US and most of Europe, 77% in the UK, Canada and Australia. Proton hasn’t published the final price of VPN Plus for Black Friday, so the checkout will show it once the sale opens on October 26.
NordVPN’s sale started on October 21, and its first phase runs until November 24, 2026. The 2-year plan comes with up to 78% off and 3 extra months, from $3.49 a month (£2.69 in the UK). Then the price drops again. During Black Friday week, from November 24 to December 1, the Basic plan on 2 years costs $2.99 a month, which NordVPN calls its best price of the year.
One account covers 10 devices at once. Higher plans add extra apps: Plus, Complete and Ultra include the NordPass password manager, and Complete adds NordLocker encrypted storage. If all you want is the VPN, Basic is the plan to wait for.
The three phases, the plans and the renewal terms are broken down in our NordVPN Black Friday guide.
Surfshark started early, on October 8, and according to its website the sale runs until December 1, 2026. The headline offer is Surfshark One for the price of Starter: $2.49 a month on a 2-year plan plus 3 months free, or $67.23 for all 27 months before tax. That works out to 88% off One, the deepest discount of the three.
Starter is the VPN with the CleanWeb ad blocker. One adds antivirus for Windows, macOS and Android, Alert for data breach monitoring, private Search and scam protection, all at the same price. There’s no limit on devices, and the network spans 4,500+ servers in 100 countries.
Proton VPN’s sale is the last to start. It runs from Monday, October 26 to November 30, 2026, and only through partner links such as the button below. VPN Plus gets 75% off the 24-month plan. That’s a step up from last year, when the best Proton VPN deal was up to 70% off the 12-month plan.
Proton hasn’t announced the final price, so we won’t guess it: the checkout shows the exact amount once the sale is live. For context, VPN Plus normally costs $3.49 a month on the 24-month plan.
VPN Plus covers 10 devices, more than 20,000 servers in over 140 countries, streaming, P2P, the NetShield ad and malware blocker and Secure Core. Proton’s other apps are on sale too: 60% off Mail Plus, Drive Plus and Pass Plus, and 50% off Proton Unlimited, all on 12-month plans. More in our Proton VPN Black Friday guide.
All three deals cover the core job of a VPN. The better question is what else you need from it, and how many people share the account.
For streaming and smart TVs
With any of the three you can connect to a server in your home country, which helps when you want to reach your home streaming apps while traveling. Keep in mind what a VPN does and doesn’t do: it changes the country a service sees, but you still need your own subscription to Netflix, Disney+ or any other platform. Our guides to a VPN on a smart TV and a VPN on a Fire TV Stick walk you through the setup.
For the most devices
Surfshark has no device limit, so one plan covers every phone, laptop, tablet and TV in a big household. NordVPN and Proton VPN Plus each allow 10 devices at once, which is plenty for most couples and small families.
For privacy
Proton VPN comes from Proton, the Swiss company based in Geneva that also makes Proton Mail. VPN Plus adds Secure Core, a double VPN that first routes your traffic through a server in a privacy-friendly country, and NetShield, which blocks ads and malware. Our Proton VPN review covers the rest.
For a full security bundle
Surfshark One adds antivirus and breach alerts at the Starter price this year, so you get more for the same $2.49 a month before tax. If you also want encrypted email and cloud storage, Proton Unlimited at 50% off bundles the VPN with Mail, Pass, Calendar and Drive and 500 GB of storage.
When is the best time to buy a VPN on Black Friday?
Each sale runs on its own calendar, and those dates matter more than the day itself. Black Friday falls on Friday, November 27, 2026 and Cyber Monday on November 30, but none of the three deals is limited to those two days.
Surfshark: live now and, according to its website, until December 1, 2026. No later price drop has been announced.
Proton VPN: from Monday, October 26 to November 30, 2026.
NordVPN: up to 78% off until November 24, then Basic at $2.99 a month from November 24 to December 1. A Cyber Monday offer follows into early December.
The plan is simple. Want NordVPN Basic? Wait for November 24. Want Surfshark? The current offer is the one that runs through December 1. Want Proton VPN? Buy from October 26 onward.
Don’t want to wait for late November? The CyberGhost Halloween deal gets you the 2-year plan for €2.19 a month, but only until Tuesday, November 3.
What to check before you pay
A big percentage is only half the story. These details decide what you’ll really pay over the life of the plan.
Tax on top. Surfshark shows prices before tax and adds VAT or sales tax at checkout. NordVPN adds VAT based on the country you pick at checkout.
Renewal price. The discount covers the first term only. After that, plans renew automatically at the regular price: Surfshark One at $99 a year before tax, Proton VPN Plus at $83.88 a year. NordVPN emails you 30 days before it charges you.
One payment up front. Long plans are billed for the whole term at checkout. NordVPN’s 1-year and 2-year plans, for example, are paid in full at purchase.
30-day money-back guarantee. All three offer it on a first purchase, and Proton allows one refund per user. If you buy NordVPN through the App Store, Apple handles the refund.
No coupon codes. None of these deals needs a code. The discount applies through the deal link or the button on StreamFix.
No lifetime plans. None of the three sells a lifetime subscription. The longest deals are 2 years plus 3 months for NordVPN and Surfshark, and 24 months for Proton VPN Plus.

Which deal is the best value?
For the most protection per dollar, Surfshark One at $2.49 a month before tax is the strongest offer on the table right now, with antivirus included and no device limit. NordVPN is worth the wait if you want Basic at $2.99 from November 24, and Proton VPN Plus is the privacy pick from October 26.
Well before Black Friday itself. Surfshark started on October 8, NordVPN on October 21 and Proton VPN starts on Monday, October 26. Black Friday is November 27, 2026, and all three sales run past it.
By discount, Surfshark One at 88% off: $2.49 a month before tax on a 2-year plan with 3 months free, antivirus included. If you prefer NordVPN, its Basic plan at $2.99 a month from November 24 to December 1 is its lowest price of the year. Our Surfshark review has the full picture, based on StreamFix data.
For these three VPNs, one sale covers both days. Surfshark’s runs until December 1, Proton VPN’s until November 30, and NordVPN’s lowest price, Basic at $2.99, runs from November 24 to December 1. None of them has confirmed a deeper discount for Cyber Monday.
The plan renews automatically at the regular price once the discounted term ends. Surfshark One renews at $99 a year before tax and Proton VPN Plus at $83.88 a year. NordVPN sends a reminder with the current renewal price 30 days before it charges you.
NordVPN, Surfshark and Proton VPN don’t sell lifetime plans at all. Their longest deals are 2 years plus 3 months for NordVPN and Surfshark and 24 months for Proton VPN Plus, each with a 30-day money-back guarantee on a first purchase.
It depends on where your services are. NordVPN lets you watch on 10 devices at once, Surfshark covers unlimited devices, and Proton VPN Plus includes streaming, which the free plan doesn’t. If you want every screen at home covered at once, see our guide to a VPN on a router, and our NordVPN review for the streaming details.
The CyberGhost Halloween deal cuts the 2-year plan to €2.19 a month, 82% off, with 2 extra months included. Here are the plan prices, the November 3 deadline, the renewal price and how refunds work.
