The short version

  • Only NordPass has a free tier, so it costs nothing to try first.
  • Each has a real cost: NordPass business plan pricing is rendered client-side per user per month rather than published as a static figure on the page; ExpressVPN the App Store listing (seller Expressco Services, LLC) states subscriptions renew automatically unless canceled at least 24 hours before the end of the billing period, and that any unused portion of a free trial is forfeited on purchase
