How to get the NordVPN discount

  1. Open NordVPN’s offer page Use the button above. The page shows the current campaign price for your country and its end date; there is no code to enter (why a coupon code rarely changes anything is explained below the screenshot).
  2. Choose the term, then the tier The 2-year term carries the large discount and the 3 free months. Basic is the VPN alone; Complete adds Threat Protection Pro, a password manager, 1 TB of encrypted cloud storage and identity monitoring; Ultra adds Incogni data removal.
  3. Pay and install Card, PayPal, Google Pay, Apple Pay and crypto are accepted. Apps exist for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, browsers and routers.
  4. Note the renewal price The intro price covers the first term only. After the first 27 months the plan renews every year at NordVPN’s renewal price (CHF 133.08 a year for Basic on the Swiss page, read 23 September 2026) unless you cancel – details under NordVPN renewal price.

What the offer page showed when we checked

NordVPN offer page showing 76% off plus 3 months extra and a price of CHF 3.29 a month instead of CHF 11.09
NordVPN offer page reached through our link, captured 21 September 2026 from Switzerland: “Get 76% off + 3 months extra”, from CHF 3.29 a month instead of CHF 11.09 (the 76% applies to Complete; Basic at CHF 3.29 is 70% off and renews at CHF 133.08 a year, CHF 11.09 a month). The same page showed 73% on 21 August; NordVPN adjusts the campaign per country and month.
Why a coupon code rarely changes anything at NordVPN: NordVPN’s coupon page (23 September 2026) says its codes can only be claimed on that page, where they are attached to a 3-month plan (CHF 7.49 a month), a 20-month plan (CHF 4.29 a month, CHF 85.80 for 20 months) and a 2-year plan (CHF 3.69 a month). All cost more per month than the 2-year campaign at CHF 3.29 (CHF 88.83 for 27 months, then CHF 133.08 a year). The 20-month code costs less up front than the campaign’s CHF 88.83, but covers 7 fewer months, and the coupon page does not state its renewal price.

NordVPN plans and prices in 2026

Plan2-year (per month)Billed for 27 monthsRenews at (per year)Includes
Basic (70% off)CHF 3.29CHF 88.83CHF 133.08VPN, Threat Protection (basic), 10 devices

Ultra (71% off)CHF 6.19CHF 167.13CHF 259.08Complete + Incogni data removal

Swiss-franc prices from NordVPN’s pricing page, read 23 September 2026; the 2-year term includes 3 extra months and is billed up front for 27 months, monthly billing costs CHF 14.09 (Basic) or 18.69 (Complete). NordVPN calculates the percentage as intro price against renewal price: Basic at 3.29 against 11.09 a month is 70%, and the 76% headline belongs to Complete (4.19 against a renewal price of 17.49 a month). Prices are shown in local currency and differ by country; US prices differ, so check the offer page from your country.

The arithmetic is simple: CHF 3.29 a month over 27 months is CHF 88.83, against CHF 14.09 a month, or CHF 380.43, for the same period on monthly billing; the 2-year plan then renews at CHF 133.08 a year. The 1-year term sits in between at CHF 5.19 a month (CHF 62.28 for the first 12 months, then the same CHF 133.08 a year) and suits you if you are not sure you will still want a VPN in two years.

Complete adds Threat Protection Pro (malware and tracker blocking that works without the VPN connected), a password manager, 1 TB of encrypted cloud storage and identity monitoring for CHF 0.90 a month more in the first 27 months and CHF 76.80 a year more at renewal (CHF 209.88 against CHF 133.08). Choose it if you will use the password manager or the cloud storage; otherwise Basic. Ultra adds the Incogni data-removal service; NordVPN labels it “Most popular” on its pricing page, but it only makes sense if you would pay for data removal anyway.

NordVPN renewal price: what the plan costs after the first 27 months

The NordVPN renewal price is a yearly charge that begins when the discounted first term ends: after 27 months on the 2-year term, after 12 months on the 1-year term. On the Swiss pricing page (23 September 2026) Basic renews at CHF 133.08 a year, Complete at CHF 209.88 and Ultra at CHF 259.08. In NordVPN’s words the subscription “will renew automatically for another term” at the then-applicable renewal price unless you cancel it, and renewal prices “may be higher than the introductory prices and are subject to change”. The charge is billed annually up to 14 days before the renewal date; for any subscription longer than one month NordVPN sends a notification email first.

Tier2-year term: first 27 months1-year term: first 12 monthsMonthly termRenews at, per yearRenewal, per month (calculated)
BasicCHF 88.83 (3.29 a month)CHF 62.28 (5.19 a month)CHF 14.09CHF 133.08CHF 11.09
CompleteCHF 113.13 (4.19 a month)CHF 73.08 (6.09 a month)CHF 18.69CHF 209.88CHF 17.49
UltraCHF 167.13 (6.19 a month)CHF 97.08 (8.09 a month)CHF 21.39CHF 259.08CHF 21.59

Swiss-franc prices from NordVPN’s pricing page, read 23 September 2026; NordVPN notes that VAT may apply. The monthly term is billed every month at the same rate. The last column is the yearly renewal price divided by twelve. The renewal price is the same whether you started on the 2-year or the 1-year term; only the length of the discounted first term differs.

The practical reading: Basic costs CHF 3.29 a month for the first 27 months and CHF 11.09 a month from then on, about 3.4 times the intro rate for the same service. For Basic and Complete the yearly renewal is still below paying month by month; for Ultra it is not (CHF 21.59 at renewal against CHF 21.39 on the monthly term).

  1. Write down the renewal date 27 months after purchase on the 2-year term, 12 months on the 1-year term; the Nord Account shows it under the subscription.
  2. Decide before the notification email NordVPN bills annually up to 14 days before the renewal date, so the decision window closes before that, not after the charge.
  3. Keep, change tier, or stop Basic instead of Complete saves CHF 76.80 a year at renewal. NordVPN’s pricing page says a plan change made in the Nord Account (Manage plan) takes effect when the current subscription expires, so make it before the renewal date.
  4. To stop, switch off auto-renewal in the Nord Account NordVPN states you keep access until the end of the current subscription period, so there is no reason to wait until the last day.
  5. Charged and did not want it? Contact support at once NordVPN’s refund article says a renewed period is not refundable under the money-back guarantee unless local law requires otherwise; if you believe the law gives you that right, ask the live chat for a review.
Do not cancel and sign up again as a “new customer” through an affiliate link to get the intro price a second time. That is against NordVPN’s terms, and we do not recommend it. The options within the rules are keeping the plan, changing tier or switching off auto-renewal.

NordVPN money-back guarantee: how the 30-day refund works

NordVPN gives you 30 days from your first purchase to ask for a full refund; the guarantee applies only to the initial subscription purchase, not to renewals (NordVPN support article “What is your refund policy?”, read 23 September 2026). The pricing page prints “30-day money-back guarantee” under every plan card, on the 2-year, 1-year and monthly terms alike: “If you are not 100% satisfied, tell us within 30 days of buying NordVPN and get a full refund.”

Two words matter. “First purchase” means the clock starts on the day you paid, not on the day you installed the app. “Full” means the amount you paid, not pro-rated: a 2-year Basic plan bought for CHF 88.83 on the Swiss page (the price for the first 27 months; it then renews at CHF 133.08 a year) is refunded as CHF 88.83.

  1. Open NordVPN’s live chat It sits at the bottom of NordVPN’s support pages. Say that you are within the 30-day guarantee and want the payment refunded.
  2. Open the link support sends you Verify that it is you. The next window lists your payments; those eligible for a refund carry a “Refund” button.
  3. Click “Refund” and confirm Pick a reason, click “Submit and Continue”, check the refund summary and confirm with “Refund”. A confirmation email follows.
  4. Watch the status The payment shows “Refund Processing”, which NordVPN says takes up to a few hours (currently up to 4), then “Refunded”. Depending on the payment method the money can take up to 10 business days to reach you.

No “Refund” button? NordVPN gives three reasons: the payment was made more than 30 days ago, a refund for your initial payment has already been issued once, or the payment is for a renewed subscription period. NordVPN adds that its refund process is automated; if you believe the decision is wrong and applicable law gives you a right to a refund, contact the live chat again and ask for a review. Purchases made in an app store follow the store’s refund rules, set out under mobile vs desktop.

Cancelling auto-renewal is not a refund request. Switching off auto-renewal in the Nord Account stops the next charge and, in the words of NordVPN’s pricing page, leaves you with access until the end of the current subscription period. It does not return the payment already made.

NordVPN promo code not applying: what to check instead

A NordVPN promo code not applying is rarely a broken code: NordVPN builds the discount into its offer page, so there is nothing to type. When you open the page through our link, it already shows the campaign price for your country, and the checkout carries it through. If you typed a code from elsewhere and saw no change, you were already on the campaign price; NordVPN’s own codes belong to their own plans on its coupon page (see the callout under the screenshot). A higher price than expected has one of these causes:

What you seeCauseWhat to do
CHF 14.09 or CHF 18.69 a monthThe monthly term is selected; it carries no discount and is billed every month at that rateSwitch to the 2-year term, which carries the campaign price and the 3 extra months
A 2-year price without the campaign percentageYou reached the pricing page by another route, or a tracking blocker interrupted the redirect from our linkOpen the offer link again in a normal browser window and compare the price line
A different currency or percentage than expectedNordVPN prices each country separately; the 76% belongs to the Complete tier, Basic is 70% and Ultra 71% on the Swiss pageCompare tier against tier: the price shown for your country is the campaign price there
A typed code is removed or ignoredNordVPN’s coupon codes belong to specific plans on its coupon pageStay on the offer page; the campaign price is already applied
The price is right but the total looks largerThe 2-year term is billed up front: CHF 88.83 for 27 months of Basic, CHF 113.13 for Complete, CHF 167.13 for Ultra; they renew at CHF 133.08, 209.88 and 259.08 a yearCheck the line “for the first 27 months” under the monthly figure

Swiss-franc prices from NordVPN’s pricing page, read 23 September 2026. NordVPN notes that VAT may apply.

Read the price line before paying. Under the monthly figure NordVPN prints the amount billed up front and the renewal price, for Basic on the Swiss page “CHF 88.83 for the first 27 months” and “Renews at CHF 133.08/year”. If those two lines are there, the discount is applied.

Existing customers: the campaign price is for the first term of a new subscription. An existing plan renews yearly at the renewal price (CHF 133.08 for Basic on the Swiss page), as set out under NordVPN renewal price. Re-registering as a new customer through an offer link is against NordVPN’s terms; accepting the renewal price, changing tier or switching off auto-renewal are the options within the rules.

NordVPN on mobile vs desktop: same offer in the browser, different rules in the app stores

There is no NordVPN promo code to type on any device. The offer page is one web page: it shows the campaign price for your country whichever browser opens it, and the checkout behind it is the same on a phone and on a laptop (on the Swiss page Basic at CHF 3.29 a month, CHF 88.83 for the first 27 months, then CHF 133.08 a year). What changes the rules is not the screen size but whether you buy from NordVPN or from an app store.

NordVPN pricing page (Switzerland) and refund-policy article, both read 23 September 2026. The two pages disagree on Google Play: the pricing page says refunds for Amazon Store, App Store or Google Play purchases must be requested from those stores, while the support article says NordVPN’s own support can refund Google Play payments. For Google Play, ask NordVPN’s live chat first. Apple Pay or Google Pay used on nordvpn.com is a website purchase, not an app-store purchase.

  1. Open the offer page in the phone’s browser Use the button at the top of this page in Safari, Chrome or Firefox. If the phone opens the app or the store instead, go back to the browser tab; if the page opens without the campaign price, reopen the link in a normal tab rather than a private one.
  2. Choose the 2-year term, then the tier, and check the price line If you see the monthly figure alone, you are on the monthly term at CHF 14.09, billed every month.
  3. Pay on the website Paying with Apple Pay in the browser is still a website purchase, billed and refunded by NordVPN.
  4. Install the app afterwards and log in Download the NordVPN app from the App Store or Google Play and sign in with the Nord Account you just created. Do not buy a second subscription inside the app.

One subscription, every device. NordVPN’s pricing page lists “10 devices secured at once”, ten simultaneous connections with one account on Basic, Complete and Ultra alike, plus devices behind a router set up with NordVPN. Apps cover Windows, macOS, Linux, Android, iOS, Android TV and Apple TV, with browser extensions for Chrome, Firefox and Edge. Some extras are platform-specific: the pricing page marks message protection as “Android only, iOS coming soon”; that affects features, not the price.

Already subscribed through the App Store or Google Play? The subscription is managed where it was bought: renewal and cancellation go through the subscription settings of your Apple ID or Google account. If you would rather be on the web offer, let the store subscription run to the end of its paid period instead of holding two subscriptions, and ask NordVPN support how an existing Nord Account is handled before buying on the website.

Entry plans on each provider’s Swiss pricing page, read 23 September 2026; Surfshark’s renewal price is from its renewal-prices page (before VAT), and Surfshark says displayed renewal prices may be subject to testing. Detailed comparisons: NordVPN vs Surfshark, NordVPN vs Proton VPN, NordVPN vs ExpressVPN, NordVPN vs CyberGhost.

NordVPN is not the cheapest VPN and has no free tier. What the price buys: NordLynx, its default protocol (OpenVPN remains available where a network blocks NordLynx, and NordVPN lists obfuscated servers for networks with heavy restrictions), Threat Protection Pro on Complete, and 7,887 servers in 150 countries (NordVPN servers page, 23 September 2026). This site has not measured speed. Its first-term price is close to the budget providers’; its renewal, CHF 133.08 a year for Basic, is the highest of the five. If you need a free option, Proton VPN’s free plan is the honest answer; if you run more than ten devices, Surfshark is.

NordVPN promo code: common questions

Is there a NordVPN promo code in 2026?
You do not need one. NordVPN applies its discount on the offer page itself: up to 76% off the 2-year plan plus 3 months free, from CHF 3.29 a month for Basic on the Swiss page (CHF 88.83 for the first 27 months, then CHF 133.08 a year; 23 September 2026). Its coupon-page codes all cost more per month.
How much does NordVPN cost with the discount?
On the 2-year term from Switzerland (23 September 2026): Basic CHF 3.29 a month (CHF 88.83 for the first 27 months, then CHF 133.08 a year), Complete CHF 4.19 (CHF 113.13, then CHF 209.88 a year) and Ultra CHF 6.19 (CHF 167.13, then CHF 259.08 a year). Monthly billing is CHF 14.09 for Basic, charged every month at that rate.
What does NordVPN cost once the 27 months are over?
The intro price ends with the first term. The subscription then renews every year at NordVPN’s renewal price, CHF 133.08 for Basic, CHF 209.88 for Complete and CHF 259.08 for Ultra on the Swiss page, unless you switch off auto-renewal in the Nord Account before the renewal date. NordVPN sends a notification email first and bills up to 14 days before that date; details under NordVPN renewal price.
Which NordVPN plan should I choose?
Basic if you only want the VPN. Complete adds Threat Protection Pro, a password manager, 1 TB of encrypted cloud storage and identity monitoring for CHF 0.90 a month more at first and CHF 76.80 a year more at renewal. Ultra adds Incogni data removal; NordVPN labels Ultra “Most popular”.
Is there a NordVPN free trial?
Not on the website. The substitute is the 30-day money-back guarantee on all plans: the refund is the full amount, not pro-rated, if you ask NordVPN’s live chat within 30 days of the first purchase. It covers the first purchase only, not renewals; the steps are under NordVPN money-back guarantee.
Can I get a refund on a NordVPN renewal charge?
Not under the guarantee. NordVPN’s refund article says a renewed subscription period is not refundable once the initial period has ended, unless local law requires otherwise. If you think the law gives you that right, ask NordVPN’s live chat for a review; otherwise switch off auto-renewal beforehand.
Why is my NordVPN price higher than advertised?
Three causes: the monthly term is selected (Basic CHF 14.09, billed every month, no discount), you are looking at a different tier (the 76% belongs to Complete, Basic is 70%), or you are on another country’s pricing, since NordVPN adjusts the campaign per market and per month. Switch to the 2-year term and compare tier against tier; more under promo code not applying.
Is the NordVPN discount different on mobile or in the app store?
Not in a browser: the offer page and its checkout are the same on a phone and on a desktop. Purchases inside the iOS or Android app are priced by the store, and App Store payments are refunded only by Apple. For the offer-page price, buy in a browser and then log in to the app with the same account.
How many devices can I use with one NordVPN account?
Ten simultaneous connections on every plan, plus unlimited devices through a router setup. Apps exist for Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, Android TV, Apple TV and browsers.
Where is NordVPN based, and does it keep logs?
NordVPN is operated by Nord Security and registered in Panama, which has no mandatory data-retention law. Its no-logs policy was reviewed by PwC Switzerland in 2018 and 2020 and by Deloitte since, most recently in 2025. NordVPN’s own pages give different totals, so we state no count.
