Some password managers offer a "free tier" that is really just a 14-day trial in disguise. You sign up, import your passwords, get comfortable — and then a paywall locks you out of your own data. UnveilPass does not work that way. The Free plan is a real product with real security and no expiration date. You can use it forever.
That said, the Pro plan exists for a reason. It unlocks features that power users and businesses genuinely need. This article breaks down exactly what each plan includes so you can make an informed decision.
What You Get for Free
UnveilPass Free is not a stripped-down demo. It includes the full zero-knowledge encryption engine, the same Argon2id key derivation, the same AES-256-GCM vault encryption and the same client-side architecture as the Pro plan. There is no difference in security between the two tiers.
Here is everything included in the Free plan:
- Up to 10 vault entries — store your most important passwords with full encryption
- Up to 10 secure notes — encrypted notes for sensitive information like recovery codes or private documents
- Password generator — create strong random passwords and passphrases with customizable rules
- Autofill and autologin — browser extension fills credentials automatically on matching sites
- Built-in TOTP authenticator — generate two-factor authentication codes directly in your vault, no separate app needed
- All 6 identity types — addresses, bank accounts, credit cards, documents, insurance and medical records
- Contacts and sharing — share passwords securely with other UnveilPass users via end-to-end encrypted channels
- Device trust — verify new devices with email codes so stolen credentials alone cannot access your vault
- Passkeys and Face ID — biometric login on mobile devices for quick access without typing your master password
- 12 languages — English, French, German, Spanish, Italian, Portuguese, Dutch, Russian, Japanese, Chinese, Korean and Arabic
- Mobile PWA — full-featured mobile app that works on any phone without installing from an app store
- Phishing protection — the browser extension blocks known phishing and malware domains
- Emergency access — designate trusted contacts who can request access to your vault if something happens to you
That is not a trial. There is no countdown timer, no feature that stops working after 30 days and no surprise paywall. If 10 vault entries and 10 notes cover your needs, you never have to pay anything.

Everything not listed in this table — encryption, autofill, autologin, password generator, TOTP, identities, contacts, sharing, device trust, passkeys, mobile app, phishing protection and emergency access — is identical on both plans.
Who Is the Free Plan For?
The Free plan is perfect if you fall into one of these categories:
- You have fewer than 10 accounts that matter. Maybe you only need to store credentials for your email, bank, a few social media accounts and a couple of work tools. Ten entries is more than enough.
- You want to try UnveilPass before committing. Unlike trials that pressure you with a deadline, the Free plan lets you use UnveilPass at your own pace. Import a few passwords, test the autofill, explore the mobile app. Upgrade when you are ready — or do not upgrade at all.
- You are helping a family member get started. Setting up a password manager for someone who is not tech-savvy is easier when there is no credit card required and no billing to explain.
Who Needs Pro?
The Pro plan is designed for people and organizations that rely on their password manager as a daily tool:
- Power users with many accounts. If you have more than 10 online accounts — and most people have dozens or even hundreds — you need unlimited vault entries. Every online store, subscription service, government portal and utility company adds up fast.
- Businesses and teams. Teams are a Pro-only feature. Create shared vaults for departments, projects or clients. Team members access shared credentials through end-to-end encrypted channels — the server never sees the plaintext, even for shared data.
- Users who want breach scanning. The Breach Scanner checks your passwords against known data breach databases. It tells you which credentials have appeared in known breaches so you can change them immediately.
- Users who want ad blocking. The Pro extension includes built-in ad and tracker blocking that works alongside the phishing protection available on both plans.
- Anyone who needs custom fields. Some sites require extra information during login — a PIN, a security question, a customer number. Custom fields let you store and auto-fill these alongside your username and password.
- Anyone who needs file attachments. Attach encrypted files to your notes — scanned documents, certificates, configuration files. Each file can be up to 1 MB, with 10 MB total storage per account.
Not sure yet? Start with Free. You can upgrade to Pro at any time without losing a single password, note or identity. Your vault stays exactly the same — Pro simply removes the limits and unlocks additional features.
The Upgrade Is Instant
Upgrading from Free to Pro takes about 30 seconds. Click "Upgrade" in Settings, choose the number of seats you need, complete the Stripe checkout and you are done. There is no migration, no re-encryption and no downtime. Your vault remains untouched — the only thing that changes is your plan status.
If you are a business, you can purchase multiple seats at once. Each seat costs $19.95 per year. Adding seats later is seamless: Stripe prorates the charge for the remaining billing period so you only pay for what you use.
Let's Talk About the Price
$19.95 per year works out to $1.66 per month. That is less than a cup of coffee. Less than a single streaming service. Less than the cost of a single compromised account — which can run into hundreds or thousands of dollars in fraud, identity theft and recovery time.
For context, here is what other password managers charge:
- LastPass Premium: $36/year
- 1Password: $35.88/year
- NordPass Premium: $35.88/year
- Keeper: $34.99/year
UnveilPass Pro costs roughly half of what the major competitors charge — and unlike some of them, it uses true zero-knowledge encryption where the server never has access to your data.
What You Are Really Paying For
When you upgrade to Pro, you are not paying to unlock encryption or security. Those are free for everyone. You are paying for:
- Scale — unlimited vault entries and notes to store your entire digital life
- Collaboration — teams with end-to-end encrypted shared vaults
- Monitoring — breach scanning to catch compromised passwords before attackers use them
- Flexibility — custom fields, file attachments and ad blocking for advanced workflows
- Support — priority support when you need help
The security model is the same on both plans. The cryptography is the same. The zero-knowledge architecture is the same. Pro gives you more room and more tools — not better protection.
Free users are not second-class citizens. Your 10 vault entries are encrypted with the exact same Argon2id + AES-256-GCM pipeline as a Pro user's 500 entries. Security is not a premium feature at UnveilPass.
The Bottom Line
If you need a secure password manager for a handful of accounts, UnveilPass Free has you covered — with zero-knowledge encryption, autofill, a TOTP authenticator, passkeys and more. No trial, no expiration, no catch.
If you need unlimited storage, teams, breach scanning, custom fields, file attachments and ad blocking, Pro delivers all of that for $19.95 per year — less than half of what most competitors charge.
Either way, your data is yours. The server never sees it. That is the UnveilPass promise on both plans.
