Opera launches ‘VPN Pro’ service for browser app

NEW DELHI: Opera has rolled out a ‘VPN Pro’ service for its browser app, which is now available for Android users. The Opera browser already comes with a free virtual private network (VPN) service.

“This makes Opera the only major browser with both a no-log, unlimited Free VPN for the browser and a device-wide VPN Pro solution, providing an additional level of data protection and powerful online security,” it said in a statement.

Interestingly, the VPN Pro service is said to provide security to the entire device and upto six Android smartphones with a single subscription.

It can be used on Android 6 and higher version, by installing Opera for Android version 69, and as for subscription details, Opera is providing a 7-day free trial period and a 30-day money-back guarantee.

The latest version of the browser app has a limited-time offer pricing of $5.99 for one month, $2.99 per month with a 6-months subscription, and $1.99 per month with a 12-months subscription for virtual private network protection.


"We know that VPN services have become an essential part of browsing, which is why we now offer both a Free and a Pro solution to our users. This makes it a unique proposal on the market," said Stefan Stjernelund, Product Director of Opera for Android.

The VPN Pro service is already available in the developer version of the Opera browser for desktop. It will be launched for other Opera browsers too, to ensure that users get data protection and online security, regardless of which device they use.
