Hi everyone,

We launched the Proton family plan over a year ago. Since then, many of you have asked for a more affordable option. Today, we are excited to introduce Proton Duo, our new plan designed to make online privacy more accessible.

You might consider safeguarding online privacy a personal duty, but what about your loved ones? If your partner still depends on Big Tech for their emails, documents, or photos, their sensitive information remains at risk.

For a limited time only, we are offering Proton Duo for $14.99/month with a one-year plan: that’s $60 in annual savings. This is a forever discount, so if you sign up for the promotion, you’ll keep this price forever.

Proton Duo includes:

  • 2 users with separate logins
  • 1 TB of storage to share + 15 GB of bonus storage every year
  • Full access to Proton Mail, Proton Drive, Proton Calendar, Proton Pass, and Proton VPN
  • Everything included in Proton Unlimited ($60 yearly savings compared to two separate subscriptions).

How to get started

  • Sign up for Proton Duo or upgrade your existing plan.
  • If your family member doesn’t already have a Proton account, they can create one for free.
  • Invite your family member to your Proton Duo plan.

Use our Easy Switch tool to move your emails, calendars, and contacts from other providers to Proton in just a few clicks. Whether you’re already using Proton or new to our community, Proton Duo makes it easier than ever to protect what matters most.

At Proton, we’re on a mission to improve everyone’s privacy on the internet. By choosing Proton, you’re taking a stand for privacy—not just for yourself but also for your loved ones.

We’d love to hear your thoughts!

    yeah, same thing here. like, how can I explain my wife that is less technical than me, that “hey, this Proton service is great for privacy and all, but you won’t have Calendar widgets and notifications when I add stuff to our shared calendars”, and she will be like “why?” and I will be doomed. I can accept those things, cause I care more about privacy, but she doesn’t and she prefers functionality over that

      Yep.

      won’t have Calendar notifications when I add stuff to our shared calendars

      Is why I left the wider Proton ecosystem. I want to come back, but I’m waiting to hear that it’s fixed.

      That sounds like me and my wife. She’s not going to give up her calendar, photos, etc. She’s always asking me, so what keyboard do you use? What calendar do you use? What xyz do you use? And I’m always saying… yeah, you don’t want to go there. Just use what you want.

      This is one of the few things keeping me from getting a family plan and switching everyone over.

      and she will be like “why?” and I will be doomed.

      Exactly the same reason here. DOOMED.
