One Time Payment VPN
UpVPN gives you a prepaid, pay-as-you-go VPN option: make a one time purchase, keep your balance, and use VPN sessions when you need them. No required monthly subscription for light or occasional VPN usage.
Charges per VPN Session
One time payment
Add prepaid VPN credits once and use them as needed without a recurring monthly bill.
Pay as you go
You are charged for successful VPN sessions instead of paying for idle time.
Usage-based pricing
Session cost is based on a base charge, data transfer, and duration, so light usage stays affordable.
WireGuard security
Use modern WireGuard VPN servers with UpVPN apps across supported platforms.
A prepaid VPN plan built for occasional use
Many VPN plans charge every month whether you connect daily or only a few times a year. UpVPN's prepaid VPN plan is different: you make a one time payment for credits, then your balance is consumed only when VPN sessions run.
This makes pay-as-you-go VPN pricing practical for travel, testing, privacy-sensitive browsing, and backup VPN access. If you later need unlimited data, you can still choose the yearly plan from the pricing page.
Pay-as-you-go charges
- 5 cents base charge per successful VPN session
- 4 cents per GB for data transfer
- 2 cents per hour for session duration
- Prepaid balance never expires
One time purchase VPN for prepaid usage
A VPN is an active network service, not a static download. Servers, bandwidth, software updates, and support all continue after the first payment. UpVPN keeps the one time payment model honest by applying it to prepaid usage: buy credits once, keep them, and use them when you connect.
