iProVPN vs PrivateVPN (2026): which should you pick?

Pick iProVPN if

• Fits if you want one VPN account across up to 10 devices
• Makes sense if you want a password manager bundled in

Look elsewhere if

• Watch out: renewal prices for the yearly and five-year plans are not stated
• Watch out: the vendor's pages disagreed, with a $9 monthly plan in one version and $6 in another
• Skip it if you want a big server network, as 250+ servers is smaller than the large providers
• Tight if you want to try first, as there is no trial, only a money-back window
• Pricey if you pay monthly, at $6 against $20 for the first year

Pick PrivateVPN if

• Fits if you want one account across up to 10 devices
• Works for people who want to pay by PayPal or crypto and use P2P

Look elsewhere if

• Skip it if you want to try before paying, as there's no free tier or trial
• Pricey if you pay monthly, at $9.90
• Watch out: the cheap 36-month price renews at $72 a year
• Watch out: the 30-day refund doesn't apply to renewals, crypto payments or App Store purchases
• Watch out: prices include VAT and move with the tax country you pick, and the offer shows no end date

• The 30-day refund does not apply to renewals, to cryptocurrency payments or to purchases made through the App Store.
