Private Internet Access now costs about 7 cents a day, thanks to its Halloween offer on the two-year plan. That’s 82% off, so 26 months cost $56.94 instead of $311.74, or $2.19 a month. You save $254.80 compared with paying monthly, and two of those months are on the house).
A VPN for 7 Cents a Day, With No Device Limit
Seven cents a day doesn’t buy much these days, but with PIA it covers the whole house. There’s no cap on simultaneous connections, so the family’s phones, tablets, laptops and TV sticks can share one account at once, at no extra cost.
Servers span 112 countries, including every US state, and PIA has apps for computers, phones and TV streamers. While you browse, its built-in blocker cuts out ads, trackers and malicious sites, and PIA keeps no record of what you do online.
When US authorities requested user data in court cases, it had nothing to hand over, which speaks volumes about its emphasis on privacy.
The Monthly Plan Costs Five Times More
PIA’s monthly plan is $11.99, and the longer plans bring that down fast:
- Monthly: $11.99 a month, with no commitment.
- Six months: $7.50 a month, paid as $45 every six months.
- Two years plus two free months: $2.19 a month, the Halloween price.
Over 26 months, the monthly plan costs more than five times the Halloween price for exactly the same VPN. The renewal is low as well, at $56.94 a year after the first term, or about $4.75 a month.
Once you’ve seen this price, $11.99 a month is a hard sell. And I’d personally agree that $12 or so a month is never worth it, no matter how good the VPN is; and PIA is actually pretty good.
Don’t Wait Past Halloween
This is a Halloween offer, and seasonal deals tend to change once the holiday passes. There’s no sign that 82% off will come back after that. Buy now, and $56.94 covers you for the full 26 months.
New subscribers can also cancel within 30 days and get their money back, so buying early doesn’t lock you in. Wait until after Halloween, however, and you could pay more for the same subscription.
Frequently Asked Questions
Does PIA have a free trial?
Not on desktop. A short free trial is available only on mobile, through Google Play and the App Store, and website purchases rely on the money-back guarantee instead.
Is Private Internet Access trustworthy?
Yes. PIA’s no-logs claim has been checked by independent auditors and confirmed in US court cases. Its apps are also open source, so outside developers can inspect how they handle data.
Does PIA work on smart TVs?
Yes. Apple TV, Android TV and Fire TV devices can install the PIA app directly. Smart TVs without it can connect through a router configured with PIA or through its Smart DNS feature.
