These are nominally slower than the paid-for endpoints (but often aren’t in practice) and lack extra features such as video streaming support. ProtonVPN’s free tier offers unlimited data throughput, but only via three endpoint locations (in the US, Netherlands and Japan). A paid-for subscription costs $9/£6.92 per month or $49/£37.69 per year, and gives you access to endpoints in 65 countries. Free users get access to locations in 11 countries – not including any of the Windflix video streaming endpoints. Windscribe’s free tier gets you 10GB of VPN traffic every month. If you would like to support the project, please consider upgrading to a paid Proton VPN plan so that we can continue to grow and improve Proton VPN.ProtonVPN and Windscribe regularly appear in both our best VPNs list and our best free VPN list, with both offering industry-leading free services and outstanding paid-for subscriptions.īut which is the best VPN for your needs?
