FAQs
How much is NordVPN?
NordVPN offers a wide range of plans for different lengths at different price points. The default options range between $3.49 and $11.99 per month, but these can vary depending on any available discounts currently on offer. The company's most popular plans include:
* 2-year plans: $3.49 per month
* 1-year plans: $4.99 per month
* 1-month plans: $11.99 per month
Generally, NordVPN offers up to 60% off if you buy a 2-year plan versus a 1-month plan. They also run promotional deals offering a lower per-month cost for different plans, which can vary how much you'll save. We've previously seen 2-year plans for as little as $3 per month, and the provider frequently adds extra months on for free to add value to longer plans.
Is there a NordVPN free trial?
New customers can get a 7-day free trial of NordVPN by signing up through the Google Play store. However, the better choice is to make use of NordVPN's 30-day money-back guarantee. While you do have to pay upfront, you've got plenty of time to work out if it's right for you. Plus, it's super simple to claim a refund if you don't like the service. Take a look at our guide on how to get a NordVPN free trial to sign up.
Does NordVPN offer refunds?
Yes, NordVPN's 30-day money-back guarantee means you can get in touch with their service team if you aren't 100% happy with your service to arrange a refund, so long as it's within 30 days of your purchase.
How can I contact NordVPN?

Hints and tips

Get a NordVPN student discount: If you're at college, school or university, you can save 15% on NordVPN plans with their student discount. Just register with a valid Student Beans account to receive the relevant NordVPN coupon via email.
Refer a friend to NordVPN: The NordVPN friend referral scheme lets you earn 1 month's membership free for every friend you refer to NordVPN. To top it off, your pal also gets a free month with their plan - it's a win-win!
Look out for NordVPN bundles: If you're in the market for services such as a password manager or cloud storage as well as a VPN, it's worth watching for NordVPN bundles, which can save you as much as 68% on the cost of monthly plans when you sign up for them all at once.

How we source coupon codes
The coupons you’ll find on Tom’s Guide have been sourced by our dedicated coupons team, who use the web, our relationships with retailers, & our affiliate networks to find the latest codes. The offers on each coupon page are updated every few days to ensure we feature the freshest ways to save, and our commercial team (based in London) also sources exclusive codes and sales info directly from some of the biggest retailers around.
How we test coupon codes
All the coupon codes we list on our pages have been tested by our deals & offers teams to check they work as intended before they’ve been uploaded. You’ll find a wide range of coupons on Tom’s Guide, including free shipping offers, student discounts, and savings on various kinds of products.
To ensure that all listed codes are available to use, we don’t include any one-time use or user-specific coupons. We also provide as much information as we can to keep things as clear as possible - any expiry dates or terms & conditions will be listed alongside the code. Look for the ‘Terms & Conditions’ text - you’ll be able to click this to expand this section for more details.
What to do if a coupon code doesn’t work
We take care to only list tried & tested coupons on our pages, so all codes should be active and confer the listed discount or deal. However, although we keep up to date with expiry dates and any terms & conditions, sometimes retailers change these before we can update our pages.
Should a coupon fail to work as expected, check you meet any listed requirements. These can include minimum spends, multibuy offers, or product-specific promotions (i.e. 10% off selected tablets). You can view all associated requirements by clicking “View terms and conditions” below your code.
If this does not solve your issue, you can contact our customer service team by emailing coupons.tomsguide@futurenet.com. Make sure to let us know which coupon you were trying to use and which page this was listed on, and we’ll be in touch to help as soon as possible.
How we make money
Tom’s Guide makes money from coupons through a commission-based model. We have agreements in place with each retailer on our site - for every purchase made using one of our coupons or deals, we earn a small percentage of the order total back in commission.
Thanks to this model, we can save our customers money without charging them a thing. You won’t pay a penny to get the discounts listed on our pages, so whichever code or deal you choose, you’ll get exactly what it says on the tin.
