If you’re looking to get started with a VPN, you can’t go wrong with Surfshark, which is one of our top picks for its easy-to-use interface and speedy connection. And now it’s super-cheap too: Surfshark has kicked off its Black Friday sale a month early and is offering a 28-month subscription for just $1.99/£1.49 a month (that’s a total cost of $55.72/£41.58 for two years and two months).
The small catch is that you’ll be charged the full price plus tax up front and then the renewal price of $12.95 a month will kick in 28 months later.
The deal is for the basic Surfshark Starter plan with the VPN and an ad blocker. If you want more features, SurfShark One, which adds real-time breach alerts, personal data security reports, antivirus, and other malware protection, is currently $2.49/£1.89 a month ($69.72/£52.87 plus tax).
In our four-star review, we praised Surfshark as “a remarkably privacy-focused, secure VPN that’s easily capable of getting around geo-blocked content.” And with this deal, it’s a fantastic bargain too. For more VPN options, check out our roundup of the best VPN apps for the Mac.
