Regular price
$139.08/yr (1-year Basic plan renewal price, ~$11.59/mo); new subscriber 2-year plans advertised from $2.99–$3.39/mo
Discount you can get
Approximately 40–60% off the standard renewal price, typically offered as a 1-year or 2-year re-subscription at promotional rates (e.g., ~$3.49–$4.99/mo instead of $11.59/mo). Some users report being offered additional free months (e.g., 3 bonus months) as part of the retention deal.
How to unlock this discount
Log in to your NordVPN account at my.nordaccount.com and navigate to 'Billing' or 'Subscription' settings.
Click on 'Change plan' or 'Cancel automatic payments' / 'Cancel subscription' — this starts the retention flow, you are NOT cancelling yet.
NordVPN will present a survey asking why you want to leave. Select 'It's too expensive' or 'Price' as your reason — this triggers the price-related retention offer.
You will be shown a first retention offer (typically a discounted renewal rate or bonus months). Review it carefully.
If the first offer isn't compelling enough, click 'No thanks' or 'Continue cancellation' to proceed deeper into the flow — a second, better offer often appears.
When you see an offer you're satisfied with (usually the deeper discount), click 'Accept offer' or 'Apply discount' to lock in the retention price and keep your subscription active.
Insider Tips
Select 'too expensive' or 'price' as your cancellation reason — this consistently triggers the best monetary retention offers
Decline the first offer; multiple users report that a second, improved offer appears when you push further into the flow
If chatting with live support, mention a specific cheaper competitor by name (e.g., Surfshark at $2.19/mo or Proton VPN) to strengthen your negotiating position
Try initiating the cancellation flow close to your renewal date for maximum urgency on NordVPN's side
