Instead, you start by generating an account number on the website, make a payment then download the app. You don’t need to provide personally identifying information such as name, email address or phone number when signing up with Mullvad. However, if you want to pay for a recurring subscription, you’ll need to pay via either credit card or Paypal. Those who pay with eligible cryptocurrencies will receive a 10% discount. Mullvad also accepts cash-place your payment token that’s randomly generated and cash in an envelope and mail it to the company. You can pay with a wide variety of methods, including bank write, Bitcoin, credit card, Paypal and other types of electronic transfers.

The company has about 780 servers spread across 61 locations. Mullvad VPN is based in Sweden and offers affordable and flat pricing (at $4.86 per month), no matter if you’re paying monthly, annually or in 10-year blocks.
