ExpressVPN's Valentine's Day sale has reached its halfway point. This means you've now got less than a week left to claim its super-low prices if you're looking to sign up.
Right now, ExpressVPN ranks 4th in our best VPN rankings. It's one of only 3 providers to ever top our list, and has seen huge improvements to its performance in recent months.
ExpressVPN was long held back by its price, with plans starting at over $5 a month. But thanks to its new tiered pricing and a Valentine’s Day deal, you can now pay less than half that amount.
Plans currently start from only $2.44 per month over two years, which is paid as $68.40 upfront. One-year plans see equally useful discounts, with plans starting from $3.49/month ($52.39 upfront).
ExpressVPN: lowest-ever prices on plans - up to 81% off
There's not much time left to get ExpressVPN at its lowest-ever price. Discounts range all the way up to 81% off and 2-year plans include 4 months extra, too. With any ExpressVPN plan, you can expect:
📱At least 10 simultaneous connections
⚡️ Lightway Turbo (the fastest VPN protocol we tested)
🛑 Ad and malware blocking
📧 ExpressMailGuard email protection
For access to all of ExpressVPN's new tools, we recommend picking up an advanced plan, which is $88 for 28 months of protection. No matter the plan you choose, all offer a 30-day money-back guarantee too.
Everything you need to choose an ExpressVPN plan
To get access to all of ExpressVPN's features – including the new ExpressAI, ExpressMailGuard, Identity Defender, and ExpressKeys – you'll need a more premium plan than Basic.
However, the cheapest plan does include ExppressMailGuard and blocking capabilities for malicious sites and ads. With up to 10 devices, it's also on a par with other top VPNs such as NordVPN or Proton.
I'd recommend getting an Advanced plan as it balances price with functionality. It's currently only $3.14 per month, paid as $88 upfront, and gives you access to all of ExpressVPN's new features, plus an increased device limit.
If you're looking to grab a cheaper VPN, there are several other worthy alternatives.
Surfshark ranks as the best cheap VPN out there. It starts from $1.99, but you can get a bunch of features for only a little over $2 per month. PIA is also a great choice if you're a more adept VPN user, with plans starting from only $2.03 per month.
