Protect Every Business Device With Surfshark VPN
You have a laptop, a phone, a tablet, maybe a second phone, and your partner uses the business Wi-Fi too. Most VPNs charge per device or cap you at 5 connections. Surfshark gives you unlimited devices on one account. Here's how to protect your entire operation for less than $3 a month.

The Walkthrough
Step 1: Sign Up for Surfshark
What to do: Go to Surfshark and choose a plan. The 2-year plan is the best value. Create your account and download the app for your primary device.
Why you’re doing it: Surfshark’s biggest differentiator is unlimited devices. One subscription covers your laptop, phone, tablet, smart TV, router — everything. No counting connections, no choosing which devices to protect.
What to expect: 5 minutes for signup and first app install.
Common mistakes: The monthly plan is significantly more expensive than the 2-year plan. If you’re committing to VPN protection (and you should be), lock in the longer term.
Step 2: Install on All Your Devices
What to do: Download Surfshark on every device you use for business. Laptop, phone, tablet, second phone — all of them. Log in with the same account on each device.
Why you’re doing it: You’re only protected when the VPN is running. If your laptop is secured but your phone isn’t, data on your phone is still exposed on public Wi-Fi.
What to expect: 2 minutes per device. Apps are available for Windows, Mac, iOS, Android, Linux, and browser extensions.
Step 3: Enable CleanWeb and Auto-Connect
What to do: In Surfshark’s settings, turn on CleanWeb (blocks ads, trackers, and malware) and Auto-Connect (VPN activates automatically when you go online). Choose “Fastest Location” as your default server.
Why you’re doing it: CleanWeb blocks ads and malicious trackers across every app on your device — not just your browser. Auto-connect means you never accidentally browse unprotected.
What to expect: 2 minutes. These settings apply per device, so enable them on each one.
Step 4: Set Up MultiHop for Sensitive Work
What to do: For your most sensitive activities (banking, client data, contracts), switch to MultiHop in the Surfshark app. This routes your traffic through two VPN servers instead of one for extra encryption.
Why you’re doing it: Standard VPN encryption is strong enough for everyday use. MultiHop adds a second layer for the activities where you absolutely cannot afford a data leak.
What to expect: One tap to switch. Speed is slightly slower through two servers, so use it selectively rather than for everything.
Confidence Level
This workflow is Beta — Based on Best Available Knowledge. Surfshark is a well-established VPN provider known for unlimited device connections. Features and pricing verified as of February 2026.
What to Do If It Doesn’t Work
- Internet slower with VPN: Switch to a server closer to your physical location. The “Fastest Location” option usually picks the best one automatically.
- Can’t access a specific website: Some sites block VPN traffic. Use Surfshark’s Bypasser (split tunneling) to route that site outside the VPN.
