That said, we don’t recommend using as it’s a proxy instead of a VPN, which means it doesn’t encrypt your web activity. And while there is support for peer-to-peer services while connected and no speed throttling for the free version, it doesn’t play nice with sidestepping geoblocks on international streaming services. You can only connect via one device, though. The other alternative for a viable free VPN service to use in Australia is, which offers 10GB per month with five location options (Canada, Germany, Netherlands, as well as West Coast and East Coast USA). Like TunnelBear, Speedify’s free version has a great range of location options (more than 30 countries), plus it even has servers built for peer-to-peer. Speedify also offers a free version, but only if you click through to the end of the installer prompts enticing you to pay. There are better alternatives from NordVPN, ExpressVPN and Surfshark VPN. Even as a premium service, it’s not a VPN we’d recommend because of a shaky privacy policy. One of the most popular free VPN services is Hola VPN, but we don’t recommend using that because the free version makes users exchange system resources for access. Atlas VPN is limited to three global locations, Windscribe is restricted to 10 and PrivadoVPN-one of the best-only has 12.Įxcept for TunnelBear, none of these free VPN services have Australian servers, which means dealing with higher latencies and slower download/upload speeds on top of potentially throttled free servers.Ĭheck out the table below for a breakdown of the best free VPNs available in Australia: TunnelBear only has 2GB per month (though you can tweet for an extra 1GB). ProtonVPN is limited to three countries and one device. Of the VPNs we’ve reviewed, there are truly free non-trial versions from the following services:Īnd there are other detractors for all of those options, too.
And you have to remember to do that before the money-back period expires or you’re stuck having paid the full fee.
That’s not so much a free VPN as it is a paid trial that requires you to cancel it to get your money back.
But in reality, those lists tend to include premium VPNs that ask you to pay an initial fee that you can then reclaim via money-back guarantees. While researching this article, it was easy to find a lot of websites claiming to offer a list of the best ‘free’ VPNs in Australia. Before we get started, let’s throw a little shade.
