Why should I use a VPN for live sports streaming?

Avoid ISP throttling
Ever feel like your internet slows down when you stream sports? Your internet service provider might be throttling your internet traffic. What’s the easy fix? Turn a VPN on.

Protect your data
Maintain your privacy even when streaming your favorite sports. Your watching habits are your own! Don’t let ad brokers and services collect your personal data.
Why is Surfshark the best VPN for streaming sports?

Enjoy limitless bandwidth
Here at Surfshark, we don’t apply any bandwidth or data limits to our users. Since streaming uses a significant amount of bandwidth, getting a VPN that puts no restrictions on it is crucial.

Use it on unlimited devices
Stay protected on all devices, from your smart TV to your phone or tablet, when watching your favorite teams compete. Share your Surfshark account with your family, so you all can enjoy private and buffer-free sports streaming.

Great many servers
Say you’re watching sports at home, connected to your nearest server. But if a lot of other people are connected to that same server, it eats up the bandwidth. This means a drop in streaming speed. Surfshark has 3200+ servers making this a very unlikely scenario.

Overcome local censorship
If you’re streaming sports at work or at school, you might find that the streaming services are blocked by the local firewalls. But Surfshark has solutions from smart DNS to VPN service to bypass those blocks.
We prohibit using Surfshark services for any unlawful purposes as it is against our Terms of Service. Please be sure to act in compliance with all applicable laws and regulations of streaming service providers.
