## Hidden costs and limits

- Monthly pricing ($9.99/month) is 3.3x more expensive than the 2-year rate. Casual users testing the service for a few months pay a significant premium.
- Renewal pricing reverts to standard rates after promotional periods. Check your renewal price before your term ends, it may be higher than your initial sign-up rate.
- The free plan limits you to 1 device and servers in only 5 countries (Netherlands, Japan, Romania, Poland, US) with medium speed. Streaming services are not supported on the free tier.
- Proton Unlimited at $7.99/month sounds like a deal, but it also requires a 2-year upfront payment of $191.76. The monthly Unlimited plan is $12.99/month.
- No dedicated IP option. If you need a static IP for accessing corporate networks or whitelisting, Proton VPN does not currently offer this, NordVPN and others do.
