Questions
How much is ExpressVPN in India?
12-month $103.39, Monthly $10.95/mo as of 2026-08-29. Source linked on the page.
Which payment methods work for ExpressVPN in India?
The "Payment in India" section above lists each method we could confirm for this storefront, with the dated note underneath explaining how billing actually works there.
Does ExpressVPN take UPI in India?
Not directly, no. ExpressVPN's web checkout runs on international cards and PayPal, and neither of those touches UPI. The realistic Indian payment path is the App Store route this page prices: a rupee-billed Apple ID paying by card or stored credit. Top up the Apple ID first if your card gets declined for international billing.
Can I pay for ExpressVPN with crypto from India?
ExpressVPN has long listed Bitcoin and other crypto on its web checkout, and our last check of their payments page showed it still advertised — but that only ever applies to the dollar-priced website, never to in-app purchases, which bill through Apple. Crypto also adds processing time and exchange steps, so for most people in India the rupee App Store price is both cheaper and simpler.
Is the 12-month plan worth it versus monthly?
On the verified numbers, yes: Rs 1,049 paid twelve times over costs about Rs 12,588, against Rs 9,900 upfront for the year. That is roughly Rs 2,688 saved if you stay subscribed, which most VPN users do once the thing is set up.
Is ExpressVPN cheaper annually in India?
Yes, on the numbers we verified: the Monthly plan runs $10.95/mo ($131.40 over a year), while the 12-month plan costs $103.39 for the year — about $28.01 less as of 2026-08-29.
