Black Friday 2025 is fast approaching, and two of today's best VPNs have already released discounts ahead of the big day.

Surfshark and Private Internet Access (PIA) are budget-friendly VPNs that lead our best cheap VPN rankings, and their Black Friday deals are some of the best we've seen this year, reducing the cost of a plan to around $2 per month.

Both providers offer unlimited simultaneous connections. That means you can install the VPN on as many devices as you want and use them at the same time, without worrying about usage caps. It’s ideal for folks in big households with tons of gadgets.

While Surfshark and PIA launched these deals early, they won’t be around forever.

Although PIA isn't in our top 5 ranking of the best VPNs, it's still a privacy-first provider with strong core VPN features and some of the most customizable apps we've ever used. Users also get:

<p><p><br />🌎 Servers in 91 countries<p>🍿 Compatibility with most streaming platforms<p>🔒A no-logs policy that has been tested and proven in court - twice!<br /><br />PIA has apps for virtually every device and is easy to install. Plus, with the MACE tool, users can avoid ads and malicious websites during the holiday season (and beyond). Plus, it's <strong>only $56.94 for over two years of protection.

Why do unlimited simultaneous connections matter?

While today's top VPNs have apps for pretty much every device you can imagine, they also tend to limit how many devices you can use with the VPN at the same time. NordVPN, for instance, limits users to 10 simultaneous connections.

That might sound like a lot, but if you live in a large multi-device household, you might quickly hit the cap. Surfshark and PIA solve this problem with unlimited simultaneous connections. One subscription is enough to protect a small army of gadgets - whether they belong to you, your friends, or your family.

It is worth noting that unlimited simultaneous connections aren't a must-have feature for every VPN user. Folks who live alone with a smaller number of gadgets won't find as much value in unlimited connections, and the industry average of 8-10 simultaneous connections is usually enough to cover their favorite devices.

The good news is that the Black Friday deals offered by Surfshark and PIA both come with a 30-day money-back guarantee. This gives you plenty of time to try them for yourself, and see how unlimited connections can impact your household.
