ExpressVPN's Black Friday VPN deal is now official with 30% off and 4 months free
There's no doubt about it now, and there's lots to be saved
After several people reported issues accessing ExpressVPN's Black Friday deal, we can now confirm it's real – and it's mega.
ExpressVPN has dropped to its lowest ever price for Black Friday 2025. Plans start from only $2.44 per month on its 2-year plans and 1-year plans also see a discount. No matter the length your subscription, you can also benefit from free extra months: 3 months added to 12-month plans and 4 months on 2-year plans.
Unlike most Black Friday VPN deals, we recommend picking up the Basic plan to get the best value for money. With this plan, you get its ad and malicious site blocking tool alongside the VPN, plus 10 simultaneous connections, and access to the most locations of any VPN we've tested (188).
ExpressVPN: $2.44/month (was $3.49) + 4 months extra
ExpressVPN's Black Friday deal marks the lowest price it's ever been – making its Basic plan one of the best value Black Friday VPN deals right now. For less than $70 upfront, you get:
✅ 10 simultaneous connections
✅ Ad and malicious site blocking
✅ AES-256 encryption with 4096-bit RSA keys
While ExpressVPN doesn't offer the wealth of features you'd expect from NordVPN or Surfshark, its security capabilities are superb. It has more server locations than both of them, offers post-quantum encryption (unlike Surfshark), and works with all your favorite streaming sites. Choose the Basic plan, and you get all this for $10 less than NordVPN too.
"Why Basic?" you ask. Well, ExpressVPN doesn't quite match some of the other best VPNs in terms of additional features, but it does excel when it comes to security – whichever plan you choose.
It offers AES-256-GCM encryption using 4096-bit RSA keys, which is great for encrypting your data against current threats, and post-quantum encryption to protect you once quantum computing arrives commercially. It also has malicious website blocking capabilities available on every plan. Plus with ExpressVPN, you get access to more server locations than any other VPN (188), so you should never struggle to connect to a fast, nearby server.
All this is available for 50 cents a month less than NordVPN's Basic plan, equivalent to about $10 upfront. ExpressVPN is also offering more free additional months than NordVPN, with 4 months added to 2-year plans compared with 3 months added by NordVPN.
If you're after more added security features, NordVPN is definitely a good pick, but if you're focused on your security, I'd suggest giving ExpressVPN a try. If it helps, ExpressVPN is also offering a 30-day money-back guarantee, so if you try it and you're not convinced, you get your money back risk-free.
