Hotspot Shield (opens in a new tab)

Hotspot Shield is a VPN with a free Basic plan (1 device, limited data) and paid Premium plans for unlimited HD streaming, military-grade encryption, malware and phishing blocking, and up to 10 devices. Public pages list 115+ virtual locations in 80+ countries and a 45-day money-back guarantee. The affiliate program pays 50% on each new sale. The official table lists $12.99 for 1 month, $95.88 for 1 year, and $107.64 for 3 years, all at 50%. Tracking runs on HasOffers (TUNE). Cookie duration is not published on the affiliate page; this listing uses the 60-day default. Applications go through a verification step. Payouts start at a $25 minimum via check, direct deposit, PayPal, or wire. Months under $25 roll over until you hit the threshold. A fit for privacy, streaming, and security roundups that already compare VPN plans.
