Free tier

Windscribe's free plan does not carry a time limit. Without email registration, the free plan provides 2 GB of data per month. Registering with an email address raises the monthly allowance to 10 GB. Ten server locations are available on the free tier. R.O.B.E.R.T. is Windscribe's configurable DNS-level filtering tool, available on the free plan alongside paid plans. It can be customized to filter different categories of domains including ads, trackers, and malware-associated destinations. Settings are managed through the Windscribe account dashboard. The real constraint on the free tier is the monthly data cap, not a time limit or a feature lockout beyond the location selection and the data ceiling.

Paid plans and location structure

Paid subscribers have unlimited simultaneous connections for personal use on one account, subject to Windscribe's lawful-use and account-integrity terms. Platform support includes Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS, Android, and browser extensions for Chrome and Firefox. Router setup is supported with documentation available through Windscribe's support pages. Windscribe offers two paid plan structures. The full-network plan covers all available server countries under a single monthly or annual rate. The build-your-own plan charges a lower base rate that covers a set number of countries, with additional locations available as individual add-ons. Subscribers who need coverage in specific countries but not the full global network can use the build-your-own approach to pay only for the locations they actually use. Windscribe publishes open-source client code across its supported platforms and has independent audits on record covering the service. The service supports WireGuard and OpenVPN among other protocols documented on Windscribe's features pages. Windscribe is operated by Windscribe Limited, incorporated in Canada; Canadian law governs the service.

Refund terms

Windscribe's refund terms are specific about the window and the conditions. Requests must be submitted within seven business days of the initial payment. Usage at the time of the request must be under 10 GB. Windscribe's terms also state that the company will attempt to resolve any technical issue before processing a refund rather than issuing one on request alone. The refund window starts at the first payment, usage counts against the 10 GB ceiling from day one, and Windscribe attempts to resolve the technical issue before issuing a refund. The refund window lasts seven business days from initial payment, requires usage below 10 GB, and includes a resolution-first process. Windscribe is operated by Windscribe Limited, incorporated in Canada. Canadian law governs the service. Windscribe publishes documentation about its no-logs policy and Canadian legal requirements. Windscribe's terms note that the company self-funds operations and does not pay for third-party reviews; the self-funding model is described on Windscribe's ethics page. Paid subscriptions support unlimited simultaneous connections for personal use under Windscribe's account and anti-abuse conditions.
