The main differences between the plans are the additional security features and services included with each one.

 

Here's a simple way to choose the right NordVPN plan:

  • Basic: Best if you mainly need a VPN. If you're not sure which plan to choose and only need the core VPN features, Basic is a good place to start.
  • Complete: Best for users who want a VPN with additional security features, such as a password manager and cloud storage.
  • Prime: Best if you want the widest range of bundled security and identity protection features. Some Prime features may vary by country.

NordVPN's 30-day money-back guarantee also gives new subscribers time to try the service and decide whether it's the right fit.

 

Additional Nord Security Tools

  • NordPass: A password manager that helps you securely store and manage your passwords and generate strong passwords.
  • NordLocker: 1 TB of secure cloud storage with end-to-end encryption to help protect your files.
