Surfshark features and benefits

Protect all your devices

You can connect as many as you need — we don’t limit simultaneous connections. Give it a go during your free trial: install the app on any supported device, log in, and get going.

Access local websites with Bypasser

Accessing certain local websites and apps is only possible with your actual IP address; that’s why they don’t work with a running VPN. To deal with this inconvenience, Surfshark has a split tunneling feature called the Bypasser — you can choose which apps skip VPN encryption.

Stay private with a no-activity-logs policy

Surfshark VPN does not monitor what you do online or collect activity logs. We follow a no-logs policy, which keeps private information in your hands and away from prying eyes.

Achieve uninterrupted privacy with Kill Switch

Kill Switch stops you from leaking unencrypted data and surfing without safeguards. It’s an automatic safety net feature (available on the VPN app for Windows) that disconnects you from the internet if the VPN connection drops.

Block ads and malware with CleanWeb

Popular ad blocking browser extensions only block ads, banners, and pop-ups on a browser level. With an Adblock VPN like CleanWeb, you’ll be free from adware and malware on browsers and apps alike.

Get extra privacy using obfuscated servers

Obfuscated servers hide your data and the fact that you’re using a VPN. They are helpful if you’re connecting from a place that heavily restricts internet usage, as they ensure that even your ISP (Internet Service Provider) won’t know you’re connected to an undetectable VPN.

Disclaimer: Please note that using Surfshark services for any illegal activities is strictly forbidden and violates our Terms of Service. Make sure that any use of Surfshark services for your particular activities conforms to all relevant laws and regulations, including those of any service providers and websites you access using Surfshark.

VPN free trial vs. 30-day money-back guarantee

While you can get a Surfshark free trial on the App Store or Google Play Store, it may not always be the best option for you. That’s because refunds for third-party purchases are handled by those third parties and are out of our control.

Meanwhile, we can guarantee that you’ll get your money back within 30 days if you choose to get a Surfshark subscription directly from our website.

Surfshark VPN vs. free VPNs

You should stay away from free VPNs.

Free VPNs put a data cap on how much you can browse or slow down browsing speeds. Some may even flood you with intrusive ads to maintain their business. In the worst-case scenario, your data may be leaked or sold to third parties, and your device may be infected through malware or malvertising.

Premium VPN providers like Surfshark are funded by user subscriptions. As a result, we can offer a fast, secure, and unlimited service without any of the downsides associated with free alternatives.

You’re better off with Surfshark in terms of the quality of service and your online privacy.
