Guardio Price: Plans, Monthly Cost & Price History

Guardio is an online security service built around scam and phishing protection. It runs as a browser extension and mobile app and warns you about malicious sites and suspicious links. Paid plans add wider protection than the free tier. Prices depend on two choices: how many people the plan covers and whether you pay monthly or yearly.

All prices on this page are published by Guardio on its official pricing page and were checked on Oct 11, 2026. The page does not show an effective date, and Guardio adjusts its offers, so confirm the current price on Guardio's pricing page before you subscribe.

On monthly billing, the Individual plan costs $18.99/mo. Duo and Family are priced per member, so the more people share a plan, the less each person pays.

Duo costs $14.50/mo per member and covers two people. Family covers five members at $7.80/mo per member. The plan total is the per-member price multiplied by the number of members, so check the full amount at checkout.

The Free plan costs $0/mo for one member. Guardio describes it as basic browser protection with a manual security scan, without the wider protection of the paid plans.

Paying for a year up front lowers the monthly equivalent for every plan size. Guardio shows yearly prices as a per-member monthly rate:

On yearly billing, Individual works out to $11.99/mo, Duo to $9.50/mo per member, and Family to $5.07/mo per member. You pay the full year in one charge, shown below:

Monthly or Yearly?

Yearly billing suits people who plan to keep Guardio running for the whole year. Monthly billing costs more per month but lets you cancel after a short time if the service is not a good fit. Compare $18.99/mo with $11.99/mo for one person to see what the commitment saves you.

On the pricing page, the yearly totals appear next to a higher crossed-out price, which suggests the yearly rate is presented as a discount. Before you pay, check what the plan renews at after the first year, since renewal terms may differ from the introductory offer.

• Free: you want basic browser protection and are fine running scans yourself.
• Individual: one person wants full protection across their own browser and devices.
• Duo: two people, such as a couple, want their own coverage at a lower price per person.
• Family: up to five members, for a household that wants everyone on one plan.

Sales tax may be added to the listed price depending on where you live. If you subscribe through a mobile app store, the price and renewal terms may follow Apple's or Google's billing rather than Guardio's website.

Guardio subscriptions renew automatically. To avoid an unwanted charge, turn off auto-renewal or cancel from your account before the renewal date. Refund terms are set by Guardio, so read them on its site before you subscribe.

Guardio focuses on scams, phishing, and risky sites in the browser. Traditional antivirus suites cover device-level malware scanning, and identity protection services focus on credit and data monitoring. Some people use Guardio alongside one of those. Compare features rather than price alone, since the products overlap only partly.
