This VPN deal at Surfshark is too good not to share. You'll get a two-year VPN plan for just $1.88 per month when you pay for the two years up front. You'll also get three extra months thrown in for free. That means you'll get 27 months of service for just $50.76 total. If you find yourself frequently traveling or simply want a little more security while browsing online, this deal is impossible to pass up.

Surfshark is offering a deal that brings real value for anyone who needs more online privacy. Surfshark's Starter two-year VPN plan is now dropping to just $1.88 per month for 27 months, including the free extended months. Compared to the usual $15.45-per-month price when you use the monthly plan (as opposed to a long-term one- or two-year plan), that's an 88% discount. This makes it a budget-friendly option, especially if you're looking for long-term coverage.

We know VPN deal prices can be a little confusing, so we wanted to add some context. Attila Tomashek, one of CNET's VPN experts, said, "The 88% savings cited on Surfshark's price page is based on the price of the monthly plan ($15.45) multiplied by 27. However, no one is actually paying $417 for a two-year subscription. Usually, the introductory price for the two-year plan hovers around $54." So under $51 is a pretty good deal. Additionally, it's worth noting that the price at renewal more than doubles to $99 per year after the introductory period.

If you do decide to sign up, the plan supports unlimited devices, so you can protect everything from your phone to your laptop under a single subscription. This way, you can put your whole family on the same plan and keep everyone safe. 

For even more protection, Surfshark has additional tiers: Surfshark One and Surfshark One Plus. With these plans, you'll get some useful extras like malware protection, ad and tracker blocking and tools to help reduce spam and scams. These plans will require you to pay a little more.

Why this deal matters

According to Surfshark, you would pay the equivalent of $8.25 per month on a two-year plan, or you could go the noncommitment route and pay $15.48 every month for a monthly plan. With this deal, you'll pay just $1.88 per month for the two-year plan. With the extra three months free, the deal's value increases even more. Surfshark is a solid VPN service. In fact, we labeled it the best-value VPN on the market right now. Â
