What nVPN is
nVPN sells shared or dedicated IP VPN plans across 56 locations, with OpenVPN, WireGuard, L2TP/IPsec and bundled SOCKS5 proxies. Port forwarding is opened automatically from the client area. Its terms state a strict no-log policy and say the only data kept is an email address, which is optional for some payment methods, and a payment transaction ID. The order page lists $6 per month or $40 per year for a shared IP and $8 per month or $60 per year for a dedicated IP, payable with Bitcoin, Monero, Litecoin, Ethereum, Dash and other coins as well as PayPal, Paysafecard and gift cards. A three-day money-back guarantee applies at the operator's discretion. No company or jurisdiction is named.
