Quick! Our supposedly dead exclusive NordVPN deal is still alive — here's how to claim it while you can

We thought it was all over for our exclusive deal, but it seems NordVPN has forgotten to pull the plug!

If you're still looking for a way to secure the best VPN available – with a free Amazon gift card and 4 months extra protection thrown in – then now really is your last chance!

Plans start from $2.91 per month, but to get the best value, and the free Amazon gift cards, you'll need a Plus plan ($3.33/month), or higher, which I rate as one of the best value NordVPN plans as it is.

The maximum gift card value on offer is $50, or equivalent but, to get these means signing up for NordVPN's most premium plan in your region. Like I say, my recommendation is to pick up a Plus plan. It's currently cheaper than a Basic plan's off-sale price, packs all of NordVPN's best features, and gets you the free $20 gift card as well as an extra four months of service.

Wondering what that gift card can give you? I built a full security toolkit for $20 that you can pick up on Amazon that will protect your personal data even when disconnected from the VPN. Or you can just buy some light bulbs or batteries of whatever it is you need, of course.

NordVPN has ranked as our top VPN for over two years. We also rate it as the best streaming VPN.

It's not the fastest VPN, nor does it have quite the same security pedigree as ExpressVPN, but it's a top all-rounder. When we put it against streaming services from across the globe, it performed flawlessly and delivered clearer picture quality than any provider for longer than any provider.

The only arguable drawback for NordVPN is its price. Not only is it regularly more expensive than the likes of Surfshark and even ExpressVPN of late, but it also has a huge price jump once your plan renews. That's why I recommend turning off auto-renewals as soon as you sign up to avoid getting stung.

If you're unsure whether NordVPN is right for you, it does offer a 30-day money-back guarantee. Just know, you won't get to sneakily claim a gift card and run away, since these are sent out from day 31 onwards! Alternatively, you can check out some other great VPN deals below.
