VPNBaron pricing

The cheapest way in is €5.00 a month, paid upfront for the longest term. After that term, VPNBaron renews at its standard price. Market median across the main ranking: €3.13 a month.

Real cost over 1, 2 and 3 years

What you pay to keep VPNBaron running: the first term, then renewals at the published renewal price. Where no renewal price is published, plans shorter than a year are counted as repeat payments at the current price; longer plans show a dash after their term. Converted to euros at the rates used in our data (1 EUR = €1). The lowest cost for each period is marked.

VPNBaron not working? Common causes and what to check

5 things to check, built from what VPNBaron publishes about its apps, protocols and support. We do not test connections ourselves.

What to check

Switch protocol in the app: VPNBaron lists OpenVPN, IKEv2, Own protocol, VLESS / Reality, Hysteria2.

If the network blocks VPNs, turn on obfuscation (anti-DPI, VLESS Reality / Hysteria2, on all plans).

Try a manual configuration (IKEv2/OpenVPN manual setup; stealth subscription for V2Box, Hiddify, v2rayNG;…).

Contact support: email.

If the website is blocked too, use the mirror or channel (email one-time code sign-in when site blocked).
