ProtonVPN is built by the ProtonMail team and is a core part of our mission to create a free and private internet for all. If you are a ProtonMail user with a Professional or Visionary account, you can assign VPN connections to your users from within your ProtonMail account. In this article, we show you how.
ProtonVPN
Built with security as its primary focus, and drawing upon the lessons we have learned from working with journalists and activists in the field, ProtonVPN hides what you get up to online from your internet service provider (and therefore your government), and hides your real IP address from websites that you visit.
Please see What is a VPN? and How does a VPN work? if you would like to learn more about how a VPN protects you online, and here for a list of advanced security features offered by ProtonVPN.
ProtonVPN offers 4 plans, each of which allow a certain number of VPN connections. This is the number of devices you can connect to ProtonVPN at the same time. Our Plus plan, for example, allows you to connect 10 devices at once.
Assigning VPN connections from within ProtonMail
If you have a Professional or Visionary plan, you can assign VPN connections to your users from the ProtonMail accounts page.
1. Log in to your account at account.protonmail.com and go to Organization → Users and Addresses.
2. Find the user you want to assign VPN connections to and click Edit.
3. Select the number of VPN connections you want to assign that user from the dropdown menu.
Assigning VPN connections to new users
In addition to assigning VPN connections to existing users, you can assign VPN connections to new users when you add them.

Hello, with a Pro account is the VPN automatically “on” or is there a different procedure that needs to be followed?
Also, I have a separate protonmail account (free – (hidden)@protonmail.com), that I added onto the pro (hidden)@protonmail.com as a “user”. Is the (hidden)@protonmail account also via a vpn connection now? Thank-you.

Hi
with a free account I see that 1 Device is enabled to use VPN. Where it is registered? Can be changed (for example if I change laptop or OS)?

You can set-up ProtonVPN on numerous devices, but only one of those devices can be connected at a time. You can change the devices per your desire, but you cannot have multiple active connections across the devices that you’ve set-up for ProtonVPN. If you are already connected on one device, you will need to disconnect from that device in order to connect on another device.

Hi. I just used VPN to access a USA merchant’s address https://success.teespring.com/lucas-the-spider/ from the UK, using the USA connection. I’m being asked to pay in pounds, which tells me that the VPN is not masking my location. I thought the purpose of a VPN was to mask locations (among other purposes)? How can I fix this problem? I am using Windows 7 with Firefox.

program gives me “Error1001″and stops. No Proton VPN. What can I do. MY username is nimaatre and I used

Please avoid downloading the ProtonVPN application from third-parties, since we are not cooperating with them at this moment and this can cause complications with the application since it’s not from our official website. You can contact the ProtonVPN team at protonvpn.com/support-form for further assistance.

I am a protonmail plus client with the paid proton VPN. I am in Australia and have recently not been allocated a Austrlian VPN as it is claimed all are full.
Please add additional VPN options as it is a service that I have paid for and not at your discretion.
