Plans and prices (checked 30 October 2026)
Dashlane's annual figures are our arithmetic: the pricing page shows a per-month price billed annually, so we multiplied by 12. Your checkout total, with tax, may differ slightly.

Worked example: two years for one person and for a household of five
- Dashlane rows assume its price does not change. Dashlane says it changed personal plan prices from mid-February 2026 and notifies existing customers before renewal if their price changes [5].
- NordPass rows use checkout prices and the renewal price in each checkout's auto-renew notice [2] [3] [9] [10].
- A household larger than six fits on Dashlane Friends & Family (10 members) but not on one NordPass Family plan (6 accounts).
| Scenario | Plan | Year 1 | Year 2 | 2-year total | Per person per year |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| One person | NordPass Premium, 1-year then renew | $23.88 | $35.88 | $59.76 | $29.88 |
| One person | NordPass Premium, 2-year plan | $37.53 | $0 | $37.53 (27 months) | about $18.77 |
| One person | Dashlane Premium | $65.04 | $65.04 | $130.08 | $65.04 |
| Household of five | NordPass Family, 1-year then renew | $44.28 | $71.88 | $116.16 | about $11.62 |
| Household of five | NordPass Family, 2-year plan | $67.23 | $0 | $67.23 (27 months) | about $6.72 |
| Household of five | Dashlane Friends & Family | $97.56 | $97.56 | $195.12 | about $19.51 |
Free plan: NordPass has one, Dashlane's pricing page does not
NordPass Free stores and autofills passwords but allows one active session on one device; Premium removes that limit and adds the security features [6]. Dashlane's personal pricing page lists Premium (with a 14-day free trial) and Friends & Family, and no free tier [4].
If you only need a free vault on one device, NordPass Free works. If you want Dashlane, budget for Premium from the start.
Extras: VPN against Email Masking
Dashlane Premium includes what it calls a privacy-first VPN, and lists AI-powered Scam Protection, real-time phishing alerts, Dark Web Monitoring and 1 GB of encrypted document storage. On Friends & Family, the VPN is for the plan manager only [4]. Dashlane also says it supports passkeys and passwordless login [5].
NordPass Premium lists Email Masking, Data Breach Scanner, Password Health, Secure Item Sharing, File Attachments and Emergency Access [6]. It does not include a VPN; NordVPN's Complete and Prime plans list a password manager alongside the VPN [8]. NordPass stores and shares passkeys, but says NordPass passkeys cannot be exported to other password managers [7].
Who should pick which
- Pick NordPass if price matters most: one person pays $23.88 in year one and $35.88 after.
- Pick NordPass if you want to start free or need email aliases.
- Pick Dashlane if you want a VPN included without a second subscription.
- Pick Dashlane Friends & Family for 7 to 10 people on one plan.
- Skip Dashlane if you will not pay: no free plan is listed.
- Skip NordPass Free if you need more than one device signed in at once.
Questions before you decide
Does Dashlane have a free plan?
Its personal pricing page on 30 October 2026 listed only Premium, with a 14-day free trial, and Friends & Family. NordPass still offers a Free plan limited to one active session.
Does NordPass include a VPN like Dashlane?
No. NordPass plans do not include a VPN. NordVPN Complete and Prime list a password manager with the VPN, or you can add NordVPN separately.
How many people do the family plans cover?
NordPass Family covers 6 accounts. Dashlane Friends & Family covers up to 10 members, but only the plan manager gets the VPN.
Can I move NordPass passkeys to Dashlane later?
NordPass says its passkeys cannot be imported to or exported from other password managers, so you would create new passkeys on each site.
