No — Mullvad deliberately does not offer promotions, discounts, or coupon codes. The price is always 5 EUR/month. Mullvad also has no affiliate program, meaning no website is paid to recommend them. This is by design: Mullvad believes discounts and affiliate commissions lead to biased reviews and unsustainable pricing.
Yes — Mullvad accepts cash sent by mail, Bitcoin, Monero, and credit card. No email address is required at signup — you receive a random 16-digit account number. This is the most anonymous payment and signup process of any major VPN provider.
For privacy-focused users who do not need streaming, yes. Mullvad is audited (Cure53, 3 times), open-source client, no email signup, accepts cash. The flat pricing means no renewal price hike. For users who need Netflix or streaming, ExpressVPN or NordVPN are better choices.
