Compare between OysterVPN and other vendors

Yes, OysterVPN is safe to use. It uses strong encryption (AES-256 and ChaCha20 for WireGuard), includes a kill switch, and protects against DNS/IP leaks—none were found during testing. The service also claims a strict no-logs policy, though it hasn’t been independently audited yet. While they’re still building its track record, there have been no known safety issues, and its core security features offer solid protection.

OysterVPN lets you connect up to 5 devices at once on a single account. It supports all major platforms, so you can easily install it on your phone, laptop, tablet, and more. Some special deals have offered up to 10 connections, but the standard limit is five. This makes it a good fit for individuals or families with multiple devices, though sharing outside your household may go against the terms.

Mostly, yes. OysterVPN has streaming servers that work with platforms like Netflix UK, BBC iPlayer, Disney+, Hulu, ITVX, and Amazon Prime Video. However, access isn’t guaranteed for all services—some users had trouble with Netflix US during testing. If streaming is your main goal, it's best to test it using the 30-day money-back guarantee to see if it meets your needs.

OysterVPN is based in Dublin, Ireland, under Oyster Digital Solutions Ltd. Ireland isn’t part of the 5/9/14 Eyes intelligence-sharing alliances, making it a more privacy-friendly location. The country doesn’t require VPNs to retain user data and follows EU data protection laws, which adds a layer of privacy for users.

OysterVPN claims to follow a strict no-logs policy, meaning it doesn’t record browsing history, IP addresses, or connection timestamps. While this logging policy is meant to protect user privacy, the policy hasn’t been verified by a third-party audit. The privacy policy itself is somewhat vague but clearly states that user activity isn’t logged. So far, there’s no evidence suggesting the company has broken this promise.

OysterVPN doesn’t offer a free version or trial, but all plans come with a 30-day money-back guarantee. This lets you try the service risk-free and get a full refund if it doesn’t meet your needs. They also occasionally run promos, like bonus months with a paid plan, which can give you extra value.

OysterVPN supports OpenVPN (UDP/TCP) and WireGuard, both available in the app settings. WireGuard is faster and better for everyday use, while OpenVPN offers strong compatibility and may help on restricted networks. Some advanced users mention possible manual setup for other protocols like IKEv2, but OpenVPN and WireGuard are the main options. WireGuard was added in early 2025, showing OysterVPN stays up to date.

Yes, OysterVPN supports torrenting on all servers and promotes them as P2P-friendly. Users report smooth, fast downloads with no bandwidth limits, and the VPN hides your IP and encrypts traffic. You can use any major torrent client without restrictions. Just make sure to follow local laws, as OysterVPN doesn’t monitor what you share.
