One such deal has just gone live 🤯
Proton has announced the start of Black Friday deals that are set to run until November 28.
Both new and existing users can take advantage of this. Proton mentions:
If you’re already a paying Proton user, the new plan you select during Black Friday will replace your existing plan. We will credit the unused, prorated balance of your existing subscription to your Proton Account.
You can expect discounts for almost every Proton service, with up to 50% off 🥳
