A dash means we found no evidence of support, not that support is impossible. Coin availability at checkout can differ by country and product.

Payment networks

Which network each coin is accepted on, exactly as NymVPN documents it. A coin and a network appearing in the same record does not by itself mean the two go together.

Each pairing above is taken from NymVPN’s own documentation or its named gateway’s. Absence means we found no evidence, not that a chain will fail.

Pay on the cheapest network offered — NymVPN receives the same amount either way, so the fee comes out of your side. Our network comparison covers which to pick.

Payment notes

The pricing page's FAQ answers "What payment methods can I use to buy NymVPN?" with an unusually long list: "Bitcoin (BTC), ADA, Lightning Network (BTC-LN), Ethereum (ETH) tokens, Binance (BNB) tokens, Liquid Bitcoin (L-BTC), Liquid Tether (L-USDT), Litecoin (LTC), Litecoin MWEB (LTC-MWEB), Monero (XMR), $NYM, Tether (USDT on TRON), Zcash (ZEC)", then cards via Stripe, in-app Apple and Google Pay, GNU Taler and cash, adding that "additional payment methods are added regularly". Two things to notice. Tether is named with its network — TRC-20 — which is the cheapest way to move USDT and the detail most merchants leave out. And "Ethereum (ETH) tokens" and "Binance (BNB) tokens" are not the same as naming USDT or USDC on those chains; we do not read a stablecoin into them. The FAQ says payments may be visible on public blockchains but, through the zk-nym credential system, cannot be linked to your use of the VPN. We did not run a live checkout, and the processor presenting the crypto invoice is not stated.

Refunds

Documented in outline: "NymVPN can offer pro-rata refunds if you are unsatisfied." Timing "varies by payment method" — five to ten business days for Stripe card refunds, and NYM token refunds "can be processed instantly" subject to network congestion. How a USDT payment is refunded is not stated; ask before buying a long term.

Stablecoin refunds are outbound payments a merchant chooses to send, not automatic reversals. There is no chargeback.

NymVPN is the rare VPN whose payment list reads like it was written by someone who holds the coins. It names the network for Tether, offers Monero, Zcash, Lightning, GNU Taler and cash alongside, and explains how the payment is decoupled from your account. For a stablecoin holder the useful part is short: USDT, on Tron.

What the merchant says

“Tether (USDT on TRON)” appears in the pricing FAQ’s list of accepted cryptocurrencies, with “Liquid Tether (L-USDT)” beside it. TRC-20 is the cheapest way to move Tether and the network most Tether already sits on, so this is the pairing most people would want. What is not there is USDC, or Tether on Ethereum, Solana or anything else. “Ethereum (ETH) tokens” is on the list, and we do not read a stablecoin into that phrase; if the checkout offers USDT as an ERC-20 token, that is the checkout’s statement, not the FAQ’s.

Subscription mechanics

Plans auto-renew unless cancelled before the renewal date. A USDT payment cannot be charged again, so in practice a crypto-paid plan needs a manual renewal — the same pattern as every VPN in this directory. Free trials cannot be started with crypto at all. Refunds are pro-rata rather than a fixed money-back window, which is more generous in one direction and less predictable in the other; how a USDT refund travels back is not described.

Privacy

The FAQ is careful: a payment “may be visible in your own financial history or on public blockchains”, and it is the zk-nym credential rather than the payment method that keeps your use of the VPN unlinkable from it. That is the honest framing, and the VPN hub says the same about stablecoin payments generally.

hide.me takes USDT and USDC on Ethereum only, the mirror image of this record. cryptostorm reaches stablecoins through BitPay and NOWPayments rather than naming them. The Tron hub covers bandwidth and energy, which is what a TRC-20 transfer costs instead of gas.

Verification

Verified Verified September 2026

An editor confirmed these payment options against the sources listed below.

NymVPN's own pricing page names "Tether (USDT on TRON)" in its list of accepted payment methods, which is merchant documentation naming coin and network and carries a verified status without a live payment, which we did not make. Liquid Tether is named too but the Liquid network is outside this directory's enum, so it appears in the restrictions rather than the structured fields. No USDC or other dollar stablecoin is named. The terms of use identify the operator as Nym Technologies SA, place Numa-Droz 2, Neuchâtel, Switzerland, governed by Swiss law, which is why the country is CH. Refund terms are from the same pricing FAQ. The crypto payment processor is not named anywhere we read and none is asserted; "Ethereum (ETH) tokens" is not treated as evidence of any specific stablecoin.

    Added on NymVPN's own pricing FAQ naming Tether on Tron. Liquid Tether noted but outside the network enum.

Limitations

  • USDT on Tron is the only dollar stablecoin route this directory can record. NymVPN also lists Liquid Tether (L-USDT) on the Liquid network, which is outside our network list, and no USDC.
  • Free trials cannot be activated with a cryptocurrency payment.
  • Plans auto-renew unless cancelled before the renewal date; a crypto payment cannot be charged again, so a renewal paid in USDT is a manual step.
  • No payment processor is named for the crypto route; cards are handled by Stripe.
