These Black Friday VPN deals mark the best time of year to sign up for one of the fantastic services. A reliable VPN will dramatically improve your devices' privacy and security and unlock a rich array of heavily discounted or free international streaming opportunities. 

VPN subscription prices dramatically decrease the longer the term, and all of these Black Friday VPN deals are throwing in extra months for free. One-month rolling contracts offer zero savings, as is standard with VPNs, but you can save as much as 87% on longer subscriptions, with equivalently monthly fees from just $1.99.

Rather than throw a dozen different providers at you, we've picked out the ones we've spent lots of time testing for online security, privacy, and streaming. Some are more expensive than others, but every one is an excellent VPN that we use regularly. These VPN deals come with at least a 30-day money-back guarantee for added peace of mind. There's no room for filler on this list.

We'll list the total and lowest monthly US prices for the bundles below. If you're outside the US, links to VPN sites on this page will show you the equivalent discounted price in your local currency. Prices are usually displayed as effective 'per month' rates, but just be aware that you'll be charged upfront rather than once a month.  

Note: If the prices below don't match what you see on the VPN provider's website, try opening the link in an incognito window. This happens sometimes, especially if you're already running VPN software on your device.

VPNs are great apps for everyday use

VPNs go well with TV, movies, and live sports. You can access international versions of Netflix, tune into free sports overseas, and much more. Check out our roundup of the best streaming services and Black Friday streaming deals if you're looking for something to watch. NFL fans armed with a new VPN should absolutely take a look at our free NFL live stream guide, too.

If unlocking international streaming is one of your main reasons for picking up a VPN, then all of these have strong records for apps like Netflix, Max, Stan and more. If you're into your live sports streaming, I'd give the edge to ExpressVPN over the others as it does a better job with particularly long-distance (UK to Australia, for example) streaming of live sports events that are shown for free on Australian channels like 9Now and 7+ for cricket and NFL. The other apps seem to need to buffer more on those channels for some reason, although Australian on-demand apps like Stan seem to be fine on all of these VPNs.
