Surfshark VPN is a virtual private network (VPN) service that encrypts users' web activity and hides their IP addresses. It is based in the Netherlands and provides users with online privacy and security. Surfshark was founded in 2018 and has quickly grown to be a well-known VPN provider.
Surfshark offers a range of features, including a kill switch, split tunneling (Bypasser), double VPN (Dynamic MultiHop), and a no-logs policy. It uses industry-standard AES 256-bit encryption and offers multiple VPN protocols, including WireGuard, OpenVPN, and IKEv2. Surfshark has over 3,200 servers in 100 countries. A key feature is the ability to connect an unlimited number of devices simultaneously. Surfshark is available on Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, Apple TV, and Fire TV. Additional features include CleanWeb (ad and malware blocker), Camouflage Mode (obfuscation), and Rotating IP. Surfshark also offers "Alternative ID" which generates alternative emails and fake information to enhance privacy. The new "EverLink" feature self-heals a broken VPN connection.
Surfshark offers several subscription plans, including Starter, One, and One+. As of February 2026, Surfshark's base VPN plan (Starter) costs $15.45 per month, or $48 for the first 15 months (then $79 annually), or $54 for the first 27 months (then $79 annually). The two-year plan is the most affordable, starting at $1.99 per month. The One and One+ plans include additional features like antivirus protection, data breach alerts, private search, and data removal services. Surfshark is generally available, and new users can try it risk-free for 30 days.
