FAQs
Does Arlo offer free shipping?
Yes, all orders worth $35 or more qualify for free shipping to the contiguous United States (i.e. excluding Alaska and Hawaii). Arlo might also offer free shipping for a wider range of items during special sales. Make sure your order is worth more than $35 to avoid additional fees at the checkout.
Does Arlo require a subscription?
No. Arlo cameras, doorbells, and other security products don’t require a subscription to use, or charge any fee (unless you choose a subscription, which will be paid for monthly). Note that although you can use your hardware without a subscription, you won’t have access to as many features.
What kinds of plans does Arlo offer?
Arlo offers a few different subscription options, with prices starting from $7.99 per month. First of all, Arlo has a free tier, which is available for all owners of the brand's hardware. However, to start gaining access to premium features, you'll need to choose either Arlo Plus or Premium.
Plus includes 60-day footage history, person & vehicle recognition, and package & animal Detection. This tier costs $9.99 per month (or $7.99 per month if you pay annually) for a single camera. If you want to upgrade to include more cameras, you'll need to pay $19.99 per month (or choose an annual plan, which works out at $17.99 per month).
For anyone looking to access top-tier features including 24/7 professional monitoring & emergency response, cellular & battery backup, and home insurance discounts, you'll need to opt for a Premium plan, which costs $29.99 per month (or $24.99 if you pay annually).
Can I get an Arlo military or student discount?
It’s not listed on the brand's website, but Arlo does team up with ID.Me to offer a 15% discount for military, first responders, teachers, and students who verify their identities. You should see the option to create or sign into an account on the Checkout page underneath the Enter Promo Code field. Do so to be sent a unique code to add into this field before you finalize your order.
What is the Arlo Secure trial?
Many Arlo security products come with a free 30-day Arlo Secure trial that automatically activates after you set up the device in the Arlo Secure App. During your trial, you will have access to all the features a full plan would entail, giving you a chance to determine whether your chosen plan suits you before you're locked into monthly payments.
Arlo Saving tips
Look for seasonal deals
Like many tech brands, Arlo is no stranger to seasonal promotions, offering as much as 70% off selected products around key retailing events such as Black Friday, Labor Day, Memorial Day and more. Make sure to check in around these times of year for the biggest & best deals.
Look for starter kits
Starter kits include a number of Arlo products and essential partner devices, and are designed to help new customers get their first home security set-up sorted in one easy purchase. Customers will find packages including doorbells, floodlights, cameras and security systems & control panels. Arlo heavily discounts these bundles, giving up to 55% off, making them a great choice if you don't already have any Arlo products in your home.
Bundle & save
Arlo also offers discounts of up to 20% on bundles when you build them yourself through the bundle & save option. You'll see a wide range of Arlo products available to be added to your order, each at up to 20% off as part of the deal. Add as many of each item as you'd like to place your custom order and save.
Choose an annual plan
If you're choosing to pay for an Arlo subscription, opt for an annual plan if you can afford the extra upfront costs. Although you'll pay for 12 months in one go, this will net you up to 25% off depending on the plan you choose, making it well worth your while in the long run.

How we source coupon codes
Whether it's through our affiliate networks, the depths of the world wide web, or our connections with big name brands, here at TechRadar we use every tool at our disposal to source the latest codes. Our coupons team updates each of our pages multiple times a week with the most recent deals, including exclusive coupons negotiated by our Commercial team. We also include the latest sales info directly from retailers to offer the most up-to-date discounts around.
How we test coupon codes
Each coupon you find on TechRadar has been tested before being uploaded by our dedicated Deals & Offers teams. You’ll see a range of offers, from free shipping to student discounts, with savings available on all kinds of products & services. To make sure every coupon is ready to use, we don’t list any user-specific or one-time codes.
We also include all relevant information about coupons, such as expiry dates and any terms & conditions, near the ‘Get Code’ button. You can see the details for an individual offer by clicking on the ‘Terms & Conditions’ text below the code and expanding the code area.
What to do if a coupon code doesn’t work
Although we do our best to ensure all listed codes are tried & tested, sometimes coupons expire or terms & conditions are changed before we can update pages. Our team works hard to make sure our coupons are active and work as intended, and should you encounter an issue when using one, we’ll work just as hard to help.
The best place to start is by checking the requirements. Click “View terms and conditions” to expand the code section and see any guidance on your chosen coupon. For example, you may need to meet a minimum spend, add other items to your basket to qualify for a multibuy offer, or confirm that your chosen code applies to the items in your basket (i.e. 10% off laptops).
If you’re still having issues using your code, you can email our customer service team on coupons.techradar@futurenet.com. Include as many details as possible - such as which code you used and which coupon page it’s listed on so our team can address your issue as fast as possible.
How we make money
When it comes to coupons, TechRadar earns money via a commission-based model. For every brand we have a coupon page for, we’ve negotiated a deal that means we earn a percentage of total basket value in commission back from every order.
Using this model means we can offer our coupons to our customers free of charge. You won’t pay any fees to add your chosen coupon to your basket - you’ll simply pay the final order total once your discount has been applied.
If you want to find out more about TechRadar’s coupons pages, you can visit our dedicated page on How We Source Coupon Codes and How to Use Them for more information.
