PrivadoVPN

Image
PrivadoVPN is a VPN vendor that has recently started offering its services directly to consumers. Previously, you could only get it as a free addition through another service’s plans, such as Newshosting.  Price  PrivadoVPN has a free plan. However, it is limited to 10GB of VPN traffic per month, only includes access to 12 global servers, supports only one active VPN connection at a time, and doesn’t offer the Socks5 proxy. Besides the free plan, it also offers a monthly and annual subscription option, with support for up to 10 simultaneous connections, access to “hundreds” of global servers, unlimited monthly VPN traffic, and the Socks5 proxy. As usual, the annual plan is the more affordable one, at $4.99/month. The only accepted payment method is via a credit card. PrivadoVPN’s paying plans support up to 10 simultaneous VPN connections at any time and come with a 30-day money-back guarantee.

VPN Client for Mac

Image
As its name implies, VPN Client for Mac is a Mac-specific VPN service. The apps haven't been updated in a while, which might explain the serious difficulties we and other users encountered. Price This service is available under five subscription options that differ in length. The cheapest is the three-year Premium plan that costs $89.99 or $2.49/month. Other options include the one-year Professional plan, three-month Standard plan, one-month Economy plan and seven-day Vacation subscription. The company also offers personal VPN servers. Every subscription option supports VPN connections on up to five Mac devices. And before making up your mind, you can take the platform for a spin thanks to the seven-day free trial. The provider also claims that “in case you are not completely satisfied with our services, you are entitled to a full refund”, unless you made in-app purchases in the App Store, in which case you’ll have to take it up with Apple. It doesn’t say for how long this ...

Orchid VPN

Image
Orchid VPN is a “crypto-powered VPN service and advanced network security tool” that gives you access to a network of VPN providers from within one app. It allows you to create as many “hops” as you need, each representing one VPN connection. But to gain access to the service, you'll need to acquire Orchid's OXT token. Here's our list of the best crypto wallets around Price This VPN provider doesn’t follow the same pricing models as its competitors - there are no pricing plans or subscription options. Instead, you pay for as much bandwidth as you need. Orchid VPN has its own token, OXT, which you can purchase on cryptocurrency exchanges like Coinmama, Kraken, etc. Then you use this token to purchase the amount of VPN bandwidth you want. Or you can buy a pre-funded Orchid account using native fiat currency to get Orchid credits. The purpose of this is to open the use of the Orchid network to a wider range of users, who may not be familiar with cryptocurrencies o...

Newshosting VPN (PrivadoVPN)

Image
Newshosting is a Usenet service that offers access to over 110,000 newsgroups with high retention. It also offers a VPN service with its subscription plans, in some cases for free. This solution is called PrivadoVPN and it aims to provide Newshosting users with anonymity and privacy. PrivadoVPN isn’t yet available for consumers, but businesses offer it as an additional service with their solutions.  Price Newshosting offers three subscription options: Lite, Unlimited, and XL Powerpack. The cheapest is the Lite option, which is charged on a month-to-month basis and with a VPN costs $14.99/month. Regardless of the chosen option and subscription, Newshosting offers its new customers a 14-day free trial for its services (VPN included) - so long as you don't use up more than 30GB. Make sure to cancel your account in the client dashboard if you don’t want to proceed with the paying service after your trial ends as there’s no mention of a refund anywhere. PrivadoVPN supports up...

iTop VPN

Image
iTop VPN is a relatively new VPN service, founded in 2016, which aims to provide users with a secure, private and fast surfing experience. The provider claims to have already accrued 10 million users worldwide, and we put its capabilities to the test. Price iTop’s monthly subscription is about average for the VPN business, at $11.99/month. However, the price drops significantly with longer plans; the one-year option costs only $2.31/month. During checkout, you can also add $7.99 for the provider’s Extended Download Service. It’s essentially a backup service or download guarantee that allows you to download the provider’s software again for up to one year from the order date, protecting your purchase if your computer crashes. That said, we fail to understand the point of this when you can simply download the app from the website again and sign in with your existing credentials. With one account, you’ll be able to connect up to five devices simultaneously, which is enough for mos...

VeePN VPN

Image
VeePN is a small VPN provider that aims to someday reach the heights of the best VPN providers. It demonstrates this ambition with various features designed to help the service stack up against the major players. But how does it fare? Price The provider offers a one-day free trial that you can access by downloading its app and signing up with your email and desired password. There’s no need to leave your financial details until you decide you want to purchase the full service. Even then, you have the right to change your mind within 30 days (or 14 days if you signed up for the monthly plan). Available payment plans include the monthly renewable subscription at $10.99/month, the 1-year at $5.83/month (billed annually), and, most unusually, a 5-year plan. The last option will only set you back by an equivalent of $1.67/month (in the form of a single payment of $99.99). Regardless of the chosen plan, you’ll be able to run the VPN connection on as many as ten devices at the same tim...

Star VPN

Image
Star VPN (not to be confused with StarVPN) is a small VPN service for the four major operating systems: Windows, Android, iOS and macOS. While not exactly the same, it seems to be operated by the same people as StarVPN . Our email queries were responded to by an individual with the same name.  Price This provider’s basic service is supposedly available for free. However, we couldn’t get it to work (which seems to be a common complaint among free users) unless we upgraded to Premium. There are only two pricing options available: monthly and yearly. The monthly option is billed $9.99/month, while the yearly package costs just $2.99/month ($35.99 billed annually). Accepted payment methods only include PayPal and credit/debit cards. And with one account, you can secure up to 6 devices at the same time. The vendor states that it has a 30-day money-back guarantee, in case things don’t work out. Our refund was issued within one day. (Image credit: Future) Alternatives W...
