Try it properly with our money-back guarantee
If DarkMatter isn’t right for you, ask for a full refund within 30 days of your first purchase (14 days if you bought a monthly plan). You don’t need to give a reason. It covers one refund per customer and doesn’t apply to renewals or to purchases made through the App Store or Google Play, which follow the store’s own refund rules. If a renewal charge wasn’t wanted, cancel within 14 days of it and we’ll refund the unused part.
Read the refund policyPricing questions, answered plainly
What will I pay when my plan renews?
Each plan renews at the renewal price shown on its card, at the end of each term, unless you cancel. You see that price on this page and again before you pay.
Are there different tiers or add-ons?
No. Every plan includes every feature. The only difference between plans is how long you choose to commit for.
Why pay for a VPN when there are free ones?
A VPN still has servers, a network and support to pay for, and a free service pays for them some other way. We make money one way: subscriptions. We don’t sell advertising, and we don’t sell or rent your personal data to anyone. Why not a free VPN? explains what to check before you choose any VPN.
How does the money-back guarantee work?
If DarkMatter isn’t right for you, ask for a full refund within 30 days of your first purchase (14 days if you bought a monthly plan). You don’t need to give a reason. It covers one refund per customer and doesn’t apply to renewals, which have their own rule. If a renewal charge wasn’t wanted, cancel within 14 days of it and we’ll refund the unused part. Our refund policy has the details.
How do I cancel?
You can cancel from your account at any time, and cancelling stops future renewals. If a renewal charge wasn’t wanted, cancel within 14 days of it and we’ll refund the unused part. Cancelling in your account within those 14 days counts as asking (your plan then stops when we refund it), or contact us.
How many devices can I use?
Every plan covers up to 5 devices connected at the same time, on any mix of Windows, macOS, iOS, Android and Fire TV.
Can I have more than one plan?
No. Each account has one plan, and it covers up to 5 devices at the same time. If you already have a plan, you can renew it or change to another plan length in your account instead of buying a second one. A change starts at your next renewal, and nothing is charged until then.
Which currency are prices in?
Prices are shown in GBP.
How is my payment handled?
You pay at checkout through our payment processors. Your full card details are handled by the processor and never reach our servers. The Trust Centre explains who processes what.
Should I buy on the website or in the app?
Either works. Purchases made on this website are covered by our money-back guarantee on your first purchase (30 days, or 14 days on monthly plans). Purchases made through the App Store or Google Play follow the store’s own refund rules.
