Surfshark Black Friday Offer Cuts Subscription by 86%
Surfshark, the Netherlands-based cybersecurity company, has announced a Black Friday promotion reducing its subscription rate to $1.99 per month with four additional months included. The company, which operates under GDPR-compliant Dutch jurisdiction, has built its offering around the Surfshark One platform, which combines five distinct security services.
Technical infrastructure and security protocols
The platform operates across 3,200 servers spanning 100 countries, with significant infrastructure concentrations in key markets. The United States hosts 25 server locations, while the United Kingdom and Australia maintain four and five locations respectively.
The system implements RAM-only infrastructure – a technical framework that automatically erases data during server reboots. This architecture employs AES-256-GCM encryption, a protocol that secures data by dividing it into blocks, alongside ChaCha20 encryption for the WireGuard protocol, which processes each data bit individually.

Independent auditor Deloitte has verified Surfshark's no-logs statement, while testing organisation AV-Test has awarded the platform its Seal of Approval. The system implements a 2048-bit RSA encryption key – a security measure that uses separate keys for encryption and decryption processes.
Product integration and enterprise features
The Surfshark One package integrates five core services: a Virtual Private Network (VPN) for encrypted internet traffic, antivirus software with real-time protection, a data breach alert system, an advertisement-free private search function and an alternative identity generator.
For enterprise users, the platform includes a dedicated IP address system designed to maintain consistent access to secure services while bypassing CAPTCHA verification systems. A 'bypasser' function enables specific applications to circumvent VPN routing – a feature developed for compatibility with banking and financial services applications.
The service implements private DNS on each server with IPv4 leak protection, ensuring user requests remain encrypted. Technical features include an IP Rotator that changes user addresses every 5-10 minutes and a NoBorders mode designed to operate through network restrictions.
Use cases and applications
The platform addresses several specific use cases across different sectors. For international business operations, the system enables secure access to region-restricted content and services. The MultiHop feature routes traffic through two different VPN servers simultaneously, providing additional security for sensitive communications.
For e-commerce and digital services, the platform includes tools for accessing regional pricing variations and maintaining consistent service access across different jurisdictions. The CleanWeb system blocks malware and phishing attempts, while the Kill Switch feature disconnects devices when VPN connections fail.
The Alternative ID system generates temporary email addresses and user profiles, designed to minimise data collection by third-party services and reduce exposure to data brokers. This integrates with the Alert system, which monitors for appearances of user data in compromised databases.
Black Friday promotion details
The Black Friday promotion reduces the standard subscription rate to $1.99 per month for the Surfshark One package, with four additional months included in the subscription period. The offer includes the complete feature set and maintains the standard 30-day refund policy.
"Surfshark One provides users with a full array of security features: VPN, Antivirus, Alert, Search, and Alternative ID," states the company's technical documentation. "By integrating these services into a single platform, users can maintain comprehensive security protocols through a unified interface."
