Thanks to Prime Day, the bargains are in, and IPVanish, one of the best VPN services on the market right now, is also participating in the promotion.

We've seen a lot of price action from the US-based provider in recent months, and this is one of its best VPN deals: sign up for a one-year plan by June 28 and you'll get a huge 68% discount, down to just $2.40 per month. All in all, that's $28.79.

This deal is somewhat unusual in the VPN world. IPVanish's one-year contract offers great flexibility and cost-effectiveness, as most other budget VPN providers tend to lock users into long-term contracts of two or three years to achieve this low price!

In addition, IPVanish's service also offers 500GB of SugarSync cloud backup. For only $2.66/month/$31.99/year, it's a great way to fully protect your entire online life in one fell swoop.

IPVanish is a regular on our Best of Guide thanks to its excellent streaming VPN capabilities and powerful apps on most devices. With access to more than 1,600 servers in 75 countries, you can connect at lightning speed wherever you are.

In addition, with this new pricing change, IPVanish is challenging top-tier budget services and also has the best monthly rates of any VPN available today.

Additionally, IPVanish offers unlimited simultaneous connections, so it can be installed on any device you own and shared throughout your home.

But if you're looking for our top-rated VPN, we recommend ExpressVPN; at $6.67 a month, it may seem pricey compared to IPVanish, but you get what you pay for. Our top pick for a bargain VPN is Surfshark, at just $2.49 a month for a two-year plan - although that's not quite as attractive thanks to this latest price cut.

For flexibility and bang for the buck, IPVanish simply can't be beat right: less than $30 for a whole year of VPN coverage? Can't say no.
