| Plan | Price | What the page says |
|---|---|---|
| 1 Month (10 licenses) | $9.09/mo | '$9.09 /month user/mo — Billed $90.90 monthly for 10 licenses.' No struck-through figure and no renewal clause: this is the standing rate. |
| 12 Months (10 licenses) | $4.37/mo | 'Save 51% — $4.37 [struck: $12.95] /month user/mo. Billed $524.40 for 12 Months for 10 licenses, then renews yearly.' The 51% checks out against the $9.09 monthly rate, not against the $12.95 the page strikes through. |
| 24 Months (10 licenses) | Custom | 'Best value — 68% OFF — 2 Years Save 68% — $2.85 [struck: $12.95] /month user/mo. Billed $684.00 for 24 Months for 10 licenses, then renews yearly.' 68% checks out against $9.09, not against $12.95. |

Where they differ
- Cheapest way in: Private Internet Access at €1.79/mo, against ExpressVPN for Teams at $9.09/mo. That is the entry price in this market on the dates shown, not a judgement about which suits you.
- Free plans: neither publishes one. Any free access here is a trial, which is a deadline.
- How far each ladder goes: ExpressVPN for Teams tops out at $9.09/mo, Private Internet Access at €11.69/mo. A deeper ladder is not a worse deal — it is a bill that keeps climbing if you keep growing.
- Recently moved: Private Internet Access (2026-08-27). A change only counts once a second clean read agrees.
How to choose in this category
- The intro price is not the price — renewal rates run higher and commitment terms stretch past two years in this set.
- Compare the renewal row, not the banner figure.
- A refund window is not a free tier — look for a plan actually priced at zero.
