This is the basic premium plan offered by Proton, and it costs the same as before, with prices starting at $4.99 per month, and going up to $47.88 ($3.99/month) for one year, or $83.76 ($3.49/month) for two years.

Proton Unlimited prices start at $11.99/month, $119.88 for one year ($9.99/month), or $191.76 ($7.99/month) for two years.
Proton Business plans are essentially the same as the Personal Mail Plus and Unlimited plans, but allow the addition of more users and are therefore more expensive.
Proton Business, Family and Vision Plans
The ProtonMail Professional plan has been moved to Proton Business Essentials. This also means that there is a big difference in the prices of the Mail Plus and Unlimited plans, so it is kind of a price increase. See my previous article for screenshots of the old plans and their prices.
Proton Visionary plans are no longer available for purchase. ProtonMail has also discontinued its family plan. If you want to add more users to your plan, you will have to switch to the Business plan, which is quite expensive on a per-user basis. Speaking of which, add-ons are no longer available for personal plans, so if you want to customize your plan, you’ll have to opt for a business plan.
ProtonVPN plan prices for new customers
Proton has canceled its ProtonVPN Basic plan. Let’s say a user is only interested in VPN service, (not email), they can no longer subscribe to ProtonVPN at $5 per month. But wait, it shows $5 per month, right? Not really, that option is only valid for one year subscription, since it costs $5/month annually, you have to pay the full amount for 12 months,
The new Starter plan for the VPN service costs $9.99 per month. This looks like a 100% price increase, but it’s just the old ProtonVPN Plus plan being rebranded as the basic tier. take a look at bubbles vpn For example, they still offer VPN services for $5 per month.
Interestingly, users who were on the ProtonVPN Basic plan have been upgraded to Unlimited, so they will have to pay $5 per month for Mail and VPN. But those who were on Mail Plus and VPN Plus bundle, Tell They will have to pay $12 for the same features. So, there is definitely a bit of inconsistency regarding plan upgrades.
