How we make money
When you click an affiliate link on this site and make a purchase, we earn a commission. This is how the site stays free and ad-free. The price you pay is exactly the same. Affiliate programs pay us out of their marketing budget, not out of your wallet.
What we recommend
We only recommend tools that:
- We personally use or have tested from India
- Have a real, working affiliate program (not every good tool does)
- We’d recommend to a friend for free Some great VPNs (e.g. Mullvad) don’t run affiliate programs — we still mention them where relevant, we just don’t earn a commission.
Our current affiliate partners
- NordVPN (via Impact) — our #1 VPN for India
- Surfshark (via CJ) — budget-friendly alternative
- Proton VPN — privacy-first
- NordPass — password manager
- Bitdefender — antivirus
The commitment
If a partner stops being the best choice for Indian users — because of speed degradation, new CERT-In issues, pricing changes, or support complaints — we remove them and replace them, even if the commission is lower. Reviews are not for sale.
