Surfshark features and benefits

Protect all your devices

Surfshark offers unlimited simultaneous connections, giving you VPN (Virtual Private Network) coverage on multiple devices at once. Give it a go during your free trial — install the app on your Android or iOS device, log in, and start browsing a safer, more private internet.

Access local websites with Bypasser

You can only open some local websites and apps when your actual IP (Internet Protocol) address is visible. Use Surfshark’s Bypasser split tunneling feature to choose which apps skip VPN encryption and get a smoother, safer online experience.

Stay private online

Top VPN providers like Surfshark don’t monitor your online activities, letting you keep private information in your hands and away from hackers, snoops, or ISPs (Internet Service Providers). Shield yourself from prying eyes with our free VPN trial today.

Achieve uninterrupted safety with Kill Switch

Surfshark’s Kill Switch disconnects you from the internet if your VPN connection ever drops. Think of it as an automatic safety net — it stops you from leaking unencrypted data and surfing without safeguards.

Block ads and malware with CleanWeb

Most ad blocking browser extensions only block ads and pop-ups on a browser level. With a VPN ad blocker like CleanWeb, you’ll be free from ads and malware on browsers and mobile apps. Start your VPN trail to see it at work.

Get extra privacy using obfuscated servers

Obfuscated servers hide your data — and the fact that you’re using VPN services. Also known as stealth VPNs, these prevent even your ISP from knowing you’re connected to Surfshark, so stay undetectable with our free VPN trial.

Disclaimer: Please note that using Surfshark services — even on a free VPN trial — 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.

Get a free VPN trial with no credit card

Want to try a VPN for free without sharing your credit card information? Not a problem! Surfshark makes it easy to try out the good stuff while keeping your credentials to yourself.

Stay private

If you’re worried about your data security or potential unauthorized charges, then you may want to consider a VPN free trial with no credit card.

Avoid auto-renewal

Canceling a free service before being charged can be a hassle. Go with a risk-free trial and stop worrying about auto-renewal.

Take a test drive

Take a test drive

The best VPN with a free trial should let you test out their VPN service — free from any financial obligation — before committing to a subscription.

Use a shared account

Setting up a VPN connection for others is the gift that keeps giving. Just because you don’t want to use — or don’t have — your own credit card doesn’t mean you can’t enjoy a free trial.

Preserve your anonymity

Preserve your anonymity

Those who value anonymity might want their personal info to be kept away from every online service. Thankfully, you can still get private internet access with a free VPN trial and no credit card.

Don’t repeat bad experiences

Don’t repeat bad experiences

Maybe a past free trial led to unexpected charges or other difficulties. No sweat. You can still get a risk-free VPN with a free trial with no obligation to pass on any credit card details.

Note: while we can’t control the payment methods the App Store or Google Play Store accepts, we offer unmatched flexibility if you get your subscription directly from us. This means you won’t enjoy our 7-day VPN trial. Nevertheless, you can still count on our 30-day money-back guarantee to cancel your subscription.

Here are your options for getting a Surfshark subscription without providing your credit card details:

  • PayPal;
  • Amazon Pay;
  • Google Pay;
  • Sofort;
  • Cryptocurrency.

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

You can get a Surfshark free trial in the App Store or Google Play Store, but it may not be the best VPN free trial for you. Refunds for third-party purchases are out of our control, so you might get unfavorable terms.

But don’t worry! If you get Surfshark directly from our site, you can take advantage of our money-back guarantee. Think of it as test-driving a VPN for a 30-day trial.

You’ll choose a paid subscription and get instant access to unlimited data and protection across all your internet traffic. But if you’re unhappy after 30 days, our money-back guarantee means you can cancel and get a full refund — no strings attached.

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.

Paid providers that offer a free VPN trial — like Surfshark — offer fast, secure, and unlimited service without any of the downsides tied to free alternatives.

For better quality of service and online privacy, go with Surfshark, a service that provides the best value for the price — and a risk-free VPN trial.
