VPN comparison – frequently asked questions

Which is the best VPN for Switzerland in 2026?

Compare platforms, contract terms and features. This table does not offer filters for server location or server count.

Do I really need a VPN in Switzerland?

On open Wi-Fi (hotel, café, airport) yes. For purely domestic surfing over fibre the security benefit is small. Strong use cases: streaming access from abroad, privacy from your ISP, sensitive research.

Are free VPNs safe?

Only to a limited extent. Vendors with free tiers (ProtonVPN Free, Windscribe Free) are reputable but heavily limited in bandwidth and server choice. Fully free VPNs without a paid product behind them often sell user data – avoid.

Does my VPN log my activity?

Check the specific audit report, scope and period with the provider. This table currently does not list verified audit dates for each provider.

Do VPNs work with Netflix Switzerland and SRF Play?

Usually yes, but streaming platforms actively block VPN IPs. Vendors with dedicated streaming servers (NordVPN, ExpressVPN, Surfshark) have the highest success rate. No guarantees.

How much does a good VPN cost per month in CHF?

On 2-year plans: CHF 2.50–5/month for the best services (NordVPN, Surfshark, ProtonVPN). On monthly plans: CHF 10–13/month. Mullvad is the outlier with fixed EUR 5/month and no commitment.
