  • How exactly do you cover the ongoing costs associated with providing a VPN service to a customer indefinitely without collecting ongoing payments from the customer?

    • +1

      By selling the data they harvest from their customers to the highest bidder.

    • By charging the rest of their customers monthly/annual fees and using this as a marketing expense?

      I've never heard of them so have no idea how long they may be able to last (lifetime obviously only lasting as long as they keep running), and I'm not personally interested because I tend to be able to get a 100ish% rebate for VPNs via Shopback/Cashrewards every time I'm close to renewal, but it's perfectly sound as a pricing model.

    • Lifetime is not the model we follow. Our business model is built on recurring and keeping the customer satisfied so they remain part of the service. But once in a while, we can afford to offer such deals. The math works out for us. This is the simplest answer I can give you.

        This is the simplest answer I can give you.

        That doesn’t actually answer the question at all.

        • It seems incredibly simple to me? If you're questioning it because of their weird phrasing, I already explained above how it works.

          I feel like I must have misunderstood something? This is incredibly obvious and I have no idea why so many of you are struggling with this?

          • @callum9999: Your logic is that it’s a marketing expense. Which is obvious.

            However, it’s not a sustainable marketing expense as it’s not a once off hit the business is taking.

            Take Gomez for example. When a store opens they sell burritos for $5. They’re most likely losing money on each sale. But that loss only lasts one day.

            The equivalent for this deal would be Gomez charging $50 and giving you unlimited burritos for life. Obviously that’s not sustainable.

              @PainToad: No it wouldn't… It costs a significant amount of money to produce a burrito, it costs a negligible amount of money to allow someone access to a VPN. A single Gomez burrito costs the same price as 4 months of this VPN, so it's actually equivalent to a plan that gives you 3 free burritos a year for life…

              And that's ignoring the regular promotions that the major VPNs regularly do. I've had 6 years of Nord for something like $10 (not a month/year - in total). That's about to expire and I'm switching to PureVPN for negative $55 for two years (i.e. they've paid me $55).

    Thank you for such a great response

    Was it though? Are 12 upvotes and 1 downvote in the previous (the only?) deal considered a great response?

    • Set your bar low and you won't be disappointed.

    • Hey olderman! We did get quite a lot of sales from our previous post. For a new brand on Ozbargain, we think we did pretty good.

  • Is Wireguard configs supported for OpenWrt / Asus Routers yet? If not when will you support these features in the near future and do you have a time frame.

    All decent VPN providers support Wireguard.
