Black Friday means deals, even in the VPN industry, but not every provider takes part. I'll explain why – and how you can spot a bargain anyway.

Black Friday is here and the biggest shopping event of the year does not disappoint with VPN deals. Most VPN providers began offering killer discounts on subscription plans early and most deals are expected to run through the entirety of the holiday season.

NordVPN Basic: from $2.99/month with 3 months extra NordVPN's Basic plan is no doubt one of the best entry points into VPNs available this Black Friday. Our top-rated VPN with 74% off and 3 extra months included. Not easily beaten, though not something to consider if you want added features. Billed as $80.73 for 27 months of coverage upfront
