How to Use VPN on Paramount Plus: Stream Without Limits

Why is Paramount Plus not available outside my country?

Paramount Plus is only available in certain countries due to international distribution rights and copyright regulations. They use geo-blocking to follow these rules.

Currently, you can access the service in:

• the United States
• Australia
• Canada
• Germany 
• Italy 
• Latin America
• the Middle East (as a pay TV channel)
• Denmark
• Finland
• Iceland
• Norway
• Sweden
• the United Kingdom
• Ireland

If you travel outside these regions, you won’t be able to sign up or log in if you are already a subscriber. Instead, you’ll get a recommendation to provide your email address for future updates.

Besides, some shows may not be available in your location or have delayed new episodes because of rights and agreements. For example, Star Trek: Discovery and others from the franchise are licensed to Canadian Bell Media for their streaming service, Crave. 

How to access Paramount Plus?

You can access Paramount+ via its website or apps. If you travel to a country where Paramount+ isn’t available, switch your virtual location to a region where the service is accessible, such as the US or the UK. This will ensure uninterrupted access to your favorite content.

Let’s see how to do that.

How do I change my location on Paramount Plus?

Alright, folks, now it’s time for a little VPN magic for Paramount Plus!

Why a VPN for this mission, exactly? Well, a VPN provides two nifty things:

• New location. It gives you a new IP address (“home address” of your device online), changing your online location and letting you access blocked content.
• Data protection. It wraps your data in an encryption cloak, keeping it safe and sound.

With a VPN, you can change location on Paramount Plus and enjoy your favorite content securely, no matter where you are.

So, how do I use VPN with Paramount Plus?

Let’s dive into specifics! Here’s how to watch Paramount Plus outside US:

1. Go for a reliable VPN service provider — try VeePN. Here’s what makes it a great VPN for Paramount Plus.

How to watch Paramount Plus for free?

You can enjoy a 7-day free trial with Paramount Plus, but beyond that, a subscription costs from just $2.5 per month (with ads).

As for free VPNs, we strongly advise against them. Here’s why:

• Data selling risk. Free VPN providers may sell your data to compensate for their lack of revenue.
• Malware concerns. Some free VPNs may hide malware under their hood, posing security risks.
• Data limitations. Free VPNs often come with data and speed limitations, restricting your online activities.
• Server restrictions. Limited server options in free VPNs can hinder your ability to bypass geo-blocks effectively.

For the best streaming experience and security, going for premium VPNs is your best bet. You can take advantage of providers’ money-back guarantee to test Paramount Plus without any cost.

Now, want to watch Paramount Plus on different platforms, free or not? We’ve got you covered.

Now, let’s wrap it up and quickly recap why a VPN for Paramount Plus is a smart move.

Why should I use a VPN for Paramount Plus? 

• Global access to content. Gain access to your paid content even in countries where Paramount Plus is unavailable. Connect to a US, UK server, or other supported location to watch as if you were at home.
• Buffering solutions. Improve streaming quality by avoiding Internet throttling — some ISPs slow down high-bandwidth activities like streaming HD content, but a VPN helps bypass this.
• Privacy & security. A VPN not only enables seamless streaming but also offers enhanced privacy and security for all your online activities. It keeps your personal information safe while allowing you to enjoy Paramount Plus abroad.

And if you’re streaming on public Wi-Fi, remember, your connection is about as safe as a house with the front door wide open unless you turn on a reliable VPN.

Hack-proofing bonus: VPNs act as your digital bodyguards, shielding you from cyberattacks by encrypting your data. VeePN takes it a step further with its Antivirus feature available on Windows and Android. Get that extra security for peace of mind and protect yourself from malicious actors out there.

A VPN is a fantastic tool for securing your online activity. But to get the most out of it, you might need some VPN troubleshooting tips, because, you know, troubles happen.

Why won’t VPN work on Paramount Plus?

Ah, troubleshooting – the final chapter of our story. 

If your VPN isn’t behaving as expected and you see that Paramount Plus in your region is not supported, don’t give up on it just yet. Here are some common troubleshooting steps:

• Try another network to rule out Internet connection issues.
• Restart your device – sometimes, a simple reboot does wonders.
• Confirm your VPN subscription is active and up to date.
• Switch servers – VPN servers can sometimes get crowded or experience problems, so sometimes, a different server location works better.
• Temporarily disable firewall, antivirus, or security software that might be blocking the VPN connection.
• Make sure you’re using the latest version of your VPN app.
• And if all else fails, reach out to customer support for expert guidance.
