How to Get an ExpressVPN Free Trial

You can get an ExpressVPN 100% free trial for seven days on iOS and Android devices.

Follow the step-by-step instructions below to get a seven-day ExpressVPN free trial via the Apple App Store.

The sign-up process is very similar to the Google Play Store (for Android smartphones and tablets).

Once you’ve started your free trial on either platform, you can use your activation code to test ExpressVPN on all other devices (up to eight at the same time).

1. Open the iOS App Store, search for ExpressVPN and download the VPN app onto your device.
2. Tap the button labeled Start 7-Day Free Trial and then enter your email address.
3. Tap the button labeled Start Your Free Trial and an App Store popup will appear asking you to confirm that you’re happy to start your one-week free trial. If you are, tap the Subscribe button.
4. Once you’ve set up your account and begun the trial, you will need to allow ExpressVPN to add VPN configurations to your device. It may look scary, but it’s perfectly ordinary – any mobile VPN will require these permissions.
5. You’ll then be asked about a series of app permissions – you can decide whether to say yes or no to these.
6. You’ll be shown ExpressVPN’s main screen, from which you can connect to VPN servers for free for seven days. Note the banner at the top of the screen which tells you how long your trial has to run.
7. You can check on the status of your account and the amount of time remaining on your ExpressVPN trial by navigating to Options > Account.

The great thing about ExpressVPN’s mobile free trial is that it doesn’t take any payment upfront.

On iOS, ExpressVPN doesn’t take any payment details at all. As such, you won’t be automatically ‘upgraded’ and billed for one of ExpressVPN’s plans.

On Android, you will have to submit payment details, though. Therefore, you will be charged if you don’t cancel the free trial before the trial window is over.

As we’ve already mentioned, the ExpressVPN seven-day free trial is only available through iOS and Android. To use the VPN risk-free for longer, follow the method below.

The only way to use ExpressVPN for free for more than seven days is to take advantage of its 30-day risk-free money-back guarantee.

You will benefit from this refund guarantee if you subscribe via PC, Mac, Android, Fire TV Stick, and Apple TV. There is no money-back guarantee available via iOS.

Below are the simple steps you need to follow:

1. Sign up for an ExpressVPN subscription. If you’re only planning on using it for 30 days, the one-month plan is the best option (you will be charged the least at sign-up).

   To get the most benefit, cancel close to the 30-day expiration date. ExpressVPN’s support even told us that the service may continue ‘for a few days’ after cancelation. Most times it’ll stop working immediately, though.

2. Use ExpressVPN for up to 30 days for free on any device: PC, Mac, Fire TV Stick, etc. Remember to set a reminder to cancel your subscription before the refund period is up.
3. Contact ExpressVPN’s 24/7 customer support team via live chat and request a cancelation.The support agent we spoke to asked us why we were canceling, and we simply said we didn’t need the account anymore. We weren’t asked any more questions, and our request was actioned immediately.
4. Wait for your refund to be processed – this can take anywhere from 5 to 7 working days.

It’s very simple to end your seven-day free trial on your iOS or Android device. Below are simple instructions to cancel your trial on both platforms.

The process on Android smartphones or tablets is very similar to the above, but remember that if you don’t cancel your free trial in time, you’ll be charged a subscription fee.

If you’ve opted to take advantage of the 30-day money-back guarantee, simply contact ExpressVPN’s live chat support team and ask them for a refund.

While the live customer support team may ask for feedback, you aren’t obliged to give them any.

ExpressVPN’s customer service is consistently very good and available 24/7. We’ve never had any issues canceling a subscription before the end of the refund period.

You will need to actively end the subscription in your ‘My Account’ area, though. Otherwise, your VPN plan will auto-renew and charge you for the full term of your subscription.

Based on our extensive tests, ExpressVPN continues to be the very best VPN service available.

Our most recent review of ExpressVPN confirms the service is still extremely fast, private, and secure.

Not to mention that ExpressVPN remains an exceptional VPN for anonymous torrenting and unblocking streaming services around the world.

For instance, we tested ExpressVPN with Netflix and found that the VPN works with 18 Netflix regions, including the American catalog.

ExpressVPN worked with US Netflix in all of our tests.

The VPN service also unblocks Disney+, BBC iPlayer, Hulu, HBO Max and many more streaming services.

Additionally, the VPN includes advanced security features like Network Lock (its VPN kill switch), and a privacy-focused logging policy. ExpressVPN’s intuitive and user-friendly apps also make it the best VPN for Mac and Windows devices.

The VPN company is also headquartered in the British Virgin Islands, a jurisdiction that doesn’t compel ExpressVPN to hand over data to government agencies.

ExpressVPN Pros and Cons

If you’re interested in getting an ExpressVPN free trial, here’s a summary of the VPN’s benefits and drawbacks:

Another way to use ExpressVPN for free for 30 days or longer is by referring your friends to the VPN service.

You’ll need an active account, from which you can invite your friends to join ExpressVPN via email, or by sharing a personalized link with them.

There’s no limit to the number of friends you can refer, either. For every friend you refer to ExpressVPN, you’ll receive 30 days of additional VPN use completely free.
