Mozilla is temporarily lifting the bandwidth cap on Firefox's free built-in VPN, giving eligible users unlimited browsing through August 31.

The promotion also expands available locations from the standard set to 28 countries. The VPN reverts to its standard 50GB monthly bandwidth limit and reduced location list on September 1.

The Firefox built-in VPN is included free with Firefox in regions where it is available. Mozilla introduced it earlier this year and reported over 1 million signups within two months of launch.

What’s Changing in Firefox’s Built-In VPN During the Promotion

For the duration of the promotion (now through August 31):

• Bandwidth is unlimited, up from the standard 50GB per month
• 28 country locations are available, an expansion from the standard set
• The full available country list is: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Bulgaria, Canada, Chile, Colombia, Denmark, Finland, France, Germany, Ireland, Italy, Malaysia, Mexico, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Portugal, Singapore, South Africa, Spain, Sweden, Thailand, United Kingdom, and United States

Browsing remains subject to the local laws and content restrictions of whichever region the user selects.

How to Use Firefox’s Built-In VPN and Practical Ways to Take Advantage of It

The VPN is integrated directly into Firefox. To turn it on, click the VPN icon in the address bar area and toggle the connection on. Firefox recommends the fastest available location by default, but users can switch to any of the supported countries from a drop-down list.

The VPN also supports per-site exceptions. If a website does not work correctly with the VPN active, users can turn the VPN off for that site directly from the VPN panel. For more permanent exceptions, sites can be added to an exclusion list in advanced settings.

Mozilla explains some common reasons people might use a VPN more often. These include adding protection when connecting to public Wi-Fi at airports, train stations, or hotels.

It also helps restore access to websites that show your home region, such as pharmacy refill portals or shopping sites that might detect your location abroad.

Additionally, users can choose a specific country location to see how a website looks in different regions.

What Happens After August 31

The Firefox VPN will revert to offering 50GB of bandwidth per month and a smaller country list starting September 1. Users who have become used to connecting from specific countries during the promotion should be aware that not all 28 countries will be available in the regular offering.

Mozilla has not indicated whether similar promotions will be available in the future. The current promotion is active in regions where Firefox's built-in VPN service is available.
