FAQs about shopping with a VPN

Is it safe to shop online with ExpressVPN?

Yes. ExpressVPN encrypts your traffic, making it much harder for hackers, advertisers, or snoops to see your purchases, especially on public Wi-Fi. ExpressVPN apps are also safe to download on your smartphone, laptop, and other devices. Additionally, our TrustedServer technology makes sure none of your payment details or browsing history are stored on our servers.

Can a VPN protect me from online fraud while shopping?

A VPN adds a strong layer of protection by hiding your IP address and encrypting your traffic, reducing risks of identity theft or card skimming. ExpressVPN also blocks known malicious sites when you activate Advanced Protection. But a VPN can't help if you click a phishing link or share your credit card details with suspicious individuals, so always be vigilant.

Will using a VPN slow down checkout or shopping apps?

All VPNs add a bit of lag, but ExpressVPN is built for speed. With the Lightway protocol and optimized servers, you can browse, add to cart, and check out without delays.

Can I use ExpressVPN to access shopping platforms abroad?

Yes. ExpressVPN has servers in 113 countries, letting you securely use shopping apps and websites as if you were at home, even while traveling.

What happens if my VPN connection drops during checkout?

ExpressVPN’s kill switch and leak protection prevent your data from being exposed, even if the VPN disconnects. However, your device might be briefly disconnected from the internet.

Can retailers still track me if I use a VPN?

It depends. A VPN masks your IP address and hides your traffic, making it harder for retailers and advertisers to build profiles or apply location-based pricing. But retailers can still track you through cookies, logged-in accounts, or device and browser fingerprints if you’re signed in or accept trackers. ExpressVPN also has tracker and ad blockers that you can enable from the Add-ons tab in the app.
