Surfshark was released in 2018, while IPVanish launched in 2012.
Both are among the most popular VPN services, sharing many similarities and differences.
I’ll compare these two VPN providers based on user privacy and security, streaming and gaming capabilities, connection speeds, torrenting, customer support, usability, and price.
This comparison will provide you with all the necessary information to make the right purchasing decision – so read til the end!

Server Locations
Surfshark has 3,200+ servers distributed across 100+ countries, while IPVanish has over 2,000 servers in 75 countries. The margin isn’t that huge, but Surfshark is superior here.
Furthermore, Surfshark has more servers in the United States, with over 600.
This makes bypassing geo-restricted content in the US easier with Surfshark.
For IPVanish, the total number of US servers is 20. However, tens of other IP addresses can be found under each city. New York alone has almost 100.
I tried counting them and stopped midway, and customer support doesn’t have the exact number, as it changes daily.
But when it comes to Africa, Surfshark has more to offer. You get six locations, including Algeria, Egypt, Ghana, Morocco, Nigeria, and South Africa, while IPVanish only provides a South African server.
Surfshark is also the only VPN that runs on RAM-only servers.
This ties in well with Surfshark’s no-logs policy, which I’ll discuss in detail in the privacy section.
China
Neither Surfshark nor IPVanish has servers in mainland China.
The closest you get to China with Surfshark are Hong Kong, Macau, and Taiwan. Meanwhile, with IPVanish, you get Hong Kong and Taiwan.
Fortunately, both VPNs offer obfuscation, making it safe to use them in China without getting in trouble with the authorities. More on that later.
With a more extensive server network of over 3200 in 100 countries against the 2,000+ in 75 countries, Surfshark is the superior VPN. Add the 600+ US servers, and you can access US-only content efficiently without worrying about overcrowding. So Surfshark wins this round.
Is Surfshark Faster Than IPVanish?
Surfshark is faster than IPVanish, but not by a big margin.
Using three protocols and servers, I conducted 18 tests (9 for each VPN).
Surfshark came on top, with average speeds of 26.46 Mbps compared to IPVanish, which managed 22.03 Mbps.
For uniformity, I used the same protocols and servers for both VPNs:
- WireGuard protocol for both VPNs
- IKEv2 for both VPNs
- OpenVPN UDP for both VPNs
The three servers I used were:
- South Africa (Closest)
- United States
- New Zealand (Furthest)
There were four instances where Surfshark didn’t drop any speed and even surpassed my base internet speeds (which made me realize my internet service provider may have been throttling my speeds). The fastest connection speed by Surfshark was 33.74 Mbps on the IKEv2 protocol and a US server.
IPVanish, on the other hand, didn’t drop speeds on only one occasion when I tested a South African server on the IKEv2 protocol. The VPN service scored 30.27 Mbps which was impressive.
Overall, Surfshark and IPVanish are fast enough to handle bandwidth-heavy activities like streaming or torrenting if you use the right combination of servers and protocols. By the look of things, IKEv2 is the fastest protocol on both VPNs, so ensure you have that selected.
I’ll address protocols in another section.
Speed & Performance Tests
Here’s the breakdown showcasing all the protocols and servers used to give you a clear picture of how each of the 18 tests turned out.
US Server | South Africa Server | New Zealand Server | |
---|---|---|---|
Surfshark (WireGuard) | 0 Mbps drop | 0 Mbps drop | 0 Mbps drop |
IPVanish (WireGuard) | 15.11 Mbps drop | 6.76 Mbps drop | 6.38 Mbps drop |
Surfshark (IKEv2) | 0 Mbps drop | 6.11 Mbps drop | 8.63 Mbps drop |
IPVanish (IKEv2) | 15.68 Mbps drop | 0 Mbps drop | 6.04 Mbps drop |
Surfshark (OpenVPN UDP) | 2.91 Mbps drop | 10.7 Mbps drop | 10.21 Mbps drop |
IPVanish (OpenVPN UDP) | 7.7 Mbps drop | 12.84 Mbps drop | 1.48 Mbps drop |
Average Surfshark Speeds | 26.46 Mbps | ||
Average IPVanish Speeds | 22.03 Mbps |
Surfshark had the upper hand in this category. There were very few instances where IPVanish was faster. The difference in the average speeds between the two VPNs stood at 4.43 Mbps, and that’s a significant gap. Therefore, the winner is Surfshark.
Streaming
I tested Surfshark and IPVanish with Hulu, BBC iPlayer, Disney+, NRK, and France.TV, and they all worked without issues.
Streaming Service | Surfshark Access | IPVanish Access |
---|---|---|
Hulu | Yes | Yes |
BBC iPlayer | Yes | Yes |
Disney+ | Yes | Yes |
NRK | Yes | Yes |
France.TV | Yes | Yes |
Both VPNs have servers in Norway, and I unblocked NRK on my first attempt and watched Førstegangstjenesten without any buffering (with subtitles, of course).
The same was true for France.TV, where I used French servers to get the latest football gossip around Messi’s departure from PSG on TV5Monde (Finally, my GOAT is going back to Barcelona).
I unblocked BBC iPlayer, Disney+, and Hulu without issues, and streaming in 4K was smooth to the end using the fastest servers and protocols.
Surfshark also worked seamlessly on my Samsung TV through the Smart DNS feature, which IPVanish doesn’t offer.
Netflix Tests
I also conducted several tests on Netflix to try and see if both VPNs can access region-locked Netflix libraries in the United States, the UK, Japan, Australia, and Brazil.
Unblocks: | Netflix US? | Netflix UK? | Other Netflix Libraries? |
---|---|---|---|
Surfshark | Yes | Yes | Netflix JP, AU, BR |
IPVanish | Yes | Yes | Netflix JP, AU, BR |
On Netflix Japan, I could stream Gintama episodes using a Japanese server on Surfshark and IPVanish. I also unlocked and watched Wild Croc Territory, which is found on Netflix Australia.
For Netflix UK, I had the pleasure of streaming Baptiste, and for Brazil Netflix, I unblocked Guerras do Brasil without any problems.
As for Netflix USA, I successfully bypassed the geo-restrictions and watched Ink Master: Turf Wars with both Surfshark and IPVanish, and now I have a good idea of my next tattoo.
Surfshark and IPVanish efficiently unblocked and streamed Disney+, Hulu, NRK, BBC iPlayer, and France.TV. I didn’t experience issues with the different Netflix libraries; their fast streaming speeds made the experience enjoyable. So this is a tie.
Torrenting
Surfshark and IPVanish offer P2P support, but Surfshark is the only option with servers dedicated to torrenting. That said, the regular servers offered by IPVanish were just as capable of handling heavy downloads as Surfshark.
Neither VPN allows port forwarding, so seeding your torrents is impossible.
I contacted customer support for both services, and they cited security reasons for this.
However, IPVanish offers SOCKS5 Proxy while Surfshark doesn’t.
You can use this to boost your download speeds regarding torrenting.
And speaking of security, while Surfshark and IPVanish keep you safe when visiting torrenting sites like Pirate Bay or RARBG, they strongly stand against using their services to break copyright laws.
In its Terms of Service, Surfshark prohibits its users from using its services to download and distribute copyrighted materials. Here’s an excerpt of their complete statement:
However, IPVanish is more strict on anything related to copyright infringement.
While Surfshark VPN simply leaves you at the mercy of authorities, IPVanish deactivates your account no matter how long your subscription may be.
Here’s the complete statement by the VPN provider:
P2P Tests
To show how fast each VPN is when it comes to torrenting, I tested each with a copyright-free 300 MB file. As detailed below, I chose the fastest servers and protocol from each VPN.
- The IKEv2 protocol with a US server for Surfshark.
- The IKEv2 protocol plus a South African server for IPVanish.
Here’s a breakdown of the test results:
Average Download Speed | Max Download Speed | Download Completion Time | |
---|---|---|---|
Surfshark | 1.8 MiB/s | 2.5 MiB/s | 2 minutes, 00 seconds |
IPVanish | 1.1 MiB/s | 2.2 MiB/s | 2 minutes, 16 seconds |
Surfshark was slightly faster, hitting a high download speed of 2.5 Mbps against the 2.2 Mbps registered by IPVanish.
Here are screenshots of how the downloads happened.
This is Surfshark.
This is IPVanish.
Both VPNs offer P2P support without port forwarding. However, IPVanish is the only one supporting the SOCKS5 proxy, while Surfshark is the only VPN with servers dedicated to torrenting. Surfshark was slightly faster, and that settled this round in its favor.
Gaming
As is with streaming and torrenting, gaming relies heavily on fast VPNs, and considering how well Surfshark and IPVanish performed in the VPN speed tests, things were smoother with gaming.
Server | Protocol | Ping | Packet Loss | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Surfshark | USA | IKEv2 | 33.74 ms | 0% |
IPVanish | South Africa | IKEv2 | 30.27 ms | 67.8% |
To better understand how each of these VPNs performs with online gaming, I tested them with two games; Asphalt 9: Legends and Fortnite.
Surfshark performed so well in the packet data loss test with 0%.
That allowed me to play Fortnite and Asphalt 9 on my Macbook without lags.
IPVanish, on the other hand, was dreadful, with 67.8% packet data loss.
Playing wasn’t smooth, and I had moments where my screen would freeze mid-game.
Here’s the test result for Surfshark.
And here is the test result for IPVanish.
Surfshark registered 0% packet data loss in the test, which means it was better at online gaming than IPVanish, so it won this round.
Privacy
Surfshark and IPVanish have a strict no-logs policy that dictates that nothing a user ever does online using their services is stored in any physical form.
Once the session is terminated, everything is wiped clean to ensure user privacy is never tampered with.
That said, there is some user data that both VPNs collect to enhance services.
For example, Surfshark collects and stores account email addresses for services like Smart DNS for improving app performance, communication, and advertising.
Payment details are also necessary for processing payments and issuing refunds.
Outside of these, there’s nothing else Surfshark saves. Here’s a screenshot of their policy.
IPVanish also collects certain personal data like email addresses and payment details for creating accounts, improving the services across their website and mobile apps, and for official communications. Here’s a screenshot of their policy.
But while Surfshark provides cryptocurrency options for VPN users who don’t want their credit card information in the hands of another person, IPVanish doesn’t.
Furthermore, both VPNs are based in countries that are part of the surveillance alliances; Surfshark in the Netherlands and IPVanish in the United States.
Now, if any government within this alliance demands to see user logs, Surfshark and IPVanish will have to comply. However, since both follow a strict and audited no-logs policy, there won’t be anything to hand over.
That said, Surfshark is the only one with a public Warrant Canary where it displays all the national security letters, gag orders, or warrants from government organizations that usually demand access to user data occasionally.
This gives it an edge over IPVanish.
Logging Policies
Below is a quick breakdown of each VPN’s logging policies.
Traffic Logs? | Connection Logs? | IP Address? | Server Location? | |
---|---|---|---|---|
Surfshark | No | No | No | No |
IPVanish | No | No | No | No |
Surfshark and IPVanish have conducted independent third-party audits to verify their no-logs policy.
Surfshark’s last audit was conducted by Deloitte in January 2023 and the VPN provider passed the test with flying colors. IPVanish was audited by Leviathan Security Group in 2022 to check the state of its logging policies. Like Surfshark, the VPN was found to comply with its privacy policy.
I didn’t find any information on whether these VPNs were open-source.
Customer support for both was in the dark regarding the whole thing, so it’s safe to assume there’s nothing.
Surfshark and IPVanish have verified the no-logs policy, and both hold the end of their bargain despite being based in surveillance-alliance member states. However, Surfshark has had more independent audits and provides a Warrant Canary for public scrutiny. So, it wins this round.
Security
IPVanish and Surfshark are packed with security features that work together to ensure you never come under attack whenever you pop online.
Both VPNs are equipped with AES 256-bit encryption that works across all protocols and servers, so there’s no actionable button that you have to toggle to get it running.
I tested the encryption on both VPNs, and the results confirmed that it works, as illustrated by the two screenshots below.
Surfshark Wireshark test.
IPVanish Wireshark test.
As you can see from the screenshots, it’s nothing more than a jumbled mess of symbols and numbers. That’s proof that encryption works because an exposed connection would instead display IP addresses, among other things.
Besides encryption, both VPNs offer excellent kill switches that prevent IP leaks whenever your VPN connection drops.
Surfshark has two kill switches on Android devices, while IPVanish offers a single kill switch across all its apps. Both VPNs offer actionable kill switch buttons in their settings.
I tested both VPNs for WebRTC, IP, and DNS leaks.
WebRTC Leak Test
Surfshark leak test.
IPVanish leak test.
IP and DNS Leak Test
Surfshark test.
IPVanish test.
For the leak tests, as long as you don’t see your ISP-provided IP address, that proves there’s no leak. The IP address you see should correspond to the virtual one provided by the VPN.
Obfuscation
Surfshark and IPVanish offer obfuscation, which can disguise your VPN connection as regular traffic to packet data inspectors.
In Surfshark, the obfuscation feature is called Camouflage Mode and works automatically with the OpenVPN protocol with no actionable button.
However, since speed isn’t OpenVPN’s strength, expect your connection speeds to decrease.
Note that Surfshark for macOS doesn’t offer OpenVPN protocol, so you can’t use Camouflage Mode on your Macbook.
On IPVanish, obfuscation is called Scramble, and like Camouflage Mode, it only works with the OpenVPN protocol and is only available on Windows, macOS, Android, and FireTV. The feature isn’t supported on iOS devices but comes with an actionable button in settings on platforms where it’s available.
Thus, IPVanish’s obfuscation is better than Surfshark since it has a button that allows you to choose whether to activate it or not.
Public Wi-Fi Protection
You can protect yourself from hackers using public WiFi through the military-grade encryption offered by Surfshark and IPVanish.
But while Surfshark doesn’t have any actionable button, IPVanish for Windows and macOS have a Trust Wi-Fi Networks button that allows you to connect automatically to new networks or choose the ones to connect to. This feature isn’t available on Android.
And to ensure it wasn’t all talk, I walked outside my house to the nearest public library, where I tested the free hotspot they provide, and the Wireshark test was positive.
Once again, the public WiFi protection offered by IPVanish has an edge over Surfshark, as it lets you decide the hotspots to trust or blacklist. That level of control is always a good thing.
DDoS Protection
For gamers, Surfshark and IPVanish can keep you safe from DDoS attacks from fellow players seeking an unfair advantage over you via their robust DDoS protection.
Furthermore, you can change to another IP address to make it even harder.
Extra Security Features
Surfshark has MultiHop servers that encrypt your VPN traffic twice by bouncing it through two different servers. This doubles up the encryption making it twice as secure as standard encryption. Currently, the VPN offers 12 MultiHop servers across all its apps.
IPVanish, on the other hand, has active buttons for DNS Leak Protection and IPv6 Leak Protection, but on Windows only. Surfshark offers private DNS and IPv4 leak protection, but there are no buttons you can toggle on and off like in IPVanish.
There’s also a CleanWeb feature offered by Surfshark, which keeps your browsing clean by blocking active trackers, ads, and malware, even when you visit risky sites like torrenting sites.
This feature is available across all devices with an enable/disable button in the settings. IPVanish doesn’t have an ad blocker or anything similar to CleanWeb, so Surfshark is better here.
Surfshark also offers a NoBorders feature that makes VPN use in restrictive regions easier. Not to be confused with Camouflage Mode, the NoBorders feature is activated automatically whenever your Surfshark app detects network restrictions on your device.
Finally, Surfshark is the only VPN with a Dedicated IP address feature.
It provides better privacy and security and allows you to bypass IP blocklists easily without detection, giving it another win over IPVanish.
Surfshark and IPVanish are secure VPNs, and each comes with vital features that protect users from online threats. Both offer encryption, DDoS protection, obfuscation, IP and DNS leak protection, and public WiFi safety. However, Surfshark has more extra features like an ad blocker and NoBorders Mode, which gives it an edge over IPVanish. Surfshark security is better, so it wins this category.
Devices & Connections
Surfshark is compatible with Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, Linus, Fire TV, PlayStation, Xbox, Chrome, Firefox, Edge, and some routers.
IPVanish VPN can be installed on macOS, Windows, Android, iOS, Linux, Chrome, FireTV, and a select range of routers. Surfshark has an edge here because it works on more devices and supports more browser extensions than IPVanish.
Both VPNs allow unlimited simultaneous connections. This makes the two perfect for users who need to secure multiple devices or share the VPN with friends and family without spending extra.
However, Surfshark is the only VPN that offers a Smart DNS feature for smart TVs that aren’t compatible with native VPN apps. It works perfectly for Samsung and LG TVs allowing access to US-only content without the burden of encryption slowing your streaming speeds.
Here’s a summary of all the primary devices that both VPNs are compatible with.
Surfshark | IPVanish | |
---|---|---|
Compatible OS? | Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, Linux, Smart TVs, routers, Edge, Chrome, FireTV, | Windows, macOS, iOS, Linux, Android, Fire TV, Chrome OS, Kodi, etc |
Smart TVs? | Android TV, FireTV, + SmartDNS | Android TV, FireTV |
Router Support? | Yes (App + Manual) | Yes (App + Manual) |
Browser Extensions? | Chrome, Firefox, Edge | Chrome |
Surfshark has a bigger range of compatible devices than IPVanish. It even comes with more browser extension support, and most importantly, it offers a SmartDNS feature for VPN-incompatible smart TVs. So Surfshark wins this round.
Split Tunneling
Surfshark and IPVanish offer a split tunneling feature on some apps.
On Surfshark, the feature is called Bypasser and is available on Android and Windows only. I checked with support on when the same would be available on the other popular platforms, but they couldn’t give me an ETA.
On Android and Windows, you must choose between Bypass VPN and Route via VPN when choosing what you want to exclude from or route through the VPN.
IPVanish also features a reliable split tunneling feature but only on Android.
To activate the feature, tap on the app you want to exclude from the VPN tunnel from the long list of user and system apps, and you’re good to go.
However, Surfshark is the better VPN here because split tunneling is available on more platforms.
While both VPNs have split tunneling, IPVanish only offers it on Android, which is inconvenient for Windows, macOS, or iOS users. Surfshark may lack the feature on macOS, but it works magnificently on Windows and Android, so Surfshark takes this category.
Customer Support
Both VPNs offer Live Chat, support email, FAQs, blogs, and troubleshooting guides. But when it comes to Live Chat, Surfshark is faster and more efficient.
Connecting to a Live Agent on Surfshark was faster, and all the questions I asked were answered right away on the spot. Once done with the chat, I was presented with an option to email myself the complete transcript of the conversation, and that was nice as I could revisit the chat whenever I wanted.
For IPVanish, the three times I tried to get in touch with support, I was forced to wait in a queue until an agent was free. Additionally, although most of my questions were addressed, some important ones either didn’t get an answer, or I was told that the live agents didn’t have access to the information I was seeking.
Despite that, IPVanish has direct mail, a beneficial Support Center with FAQs, setup guides, a section for billing questions, troubleshooting guides, an area for urgent announcements, and an informative blog.
But Surfshark’s Help Center is also stacked with helpful resources like tutorials on how to use the VPN, troubleshooting sections, billing and account sections, common topics and FAQs, and an option for direct mail.
Although IPVanish was a little slower on the Live Chat, writing them off over that small encounter wouldn’t be fair. The other customer support resources it offers were just as helpful as Surfshark’s; therefore, this was a tie.
Usability
While both VPNs offer native apps for widely used devices, some differences exist regarding the availability of some features.
For example, IPVanish only offers split tunneling on Android, while Surfshark doesn’t have split tunneling on macOS.
Surfshark also features three protocols on Windows and Android: WireGuard, IKEv2, and OpenVPN. However, macOS only features WireGuard and IKEv2 protocols, so you can’t use obfuscation on Macbooks.
Meanwhile, IPVanish has two extra protocols on macOS, IPSec and L2TP, alongside WireGuard, IKEv2, and OpenVPN.
Furthermore, Surshark’s user interface is cleaner and friendlier than IPVanish, which makes it better for beginners. IPVanish is a little sophisticated and works best with advanced users since it has a lot of customization options.
Those are the significant differences in both VPNs, and thankfully, besides the lack of obfuscation on the macOS version of Surfshark, that doesn’t affect their performance very much.
Surfshark and IPVanish lack some essential features on specific apps, but Surfshark has a better user interface that’s easier for beginners. IPVanish leans more towards experienced VPN users, so Surfshark wins this round.
Price & Value
Surfshark is slightly cheaper than IPVanish.
You get three price plans with Surfshark: monthly, annual, and biennial.
The 24-month subscription is the cheapest.
Likewise, IPVanish offers three price plans: monthly, annual, and biennial.
Again, the 24-month subscription is the cheapest with the biggest discount.
Surfshark’s monthly plan costs more than the monthly plan offered by IPVanish.
But the 12-month and 24-month subscription plans from Surfshark are cheaper than the corresponding plans from IPVanish.
Both VPNs have a 30-day money-back guarantee with no free version.
As for payment options, Surfshark offers card payments like VISA, Discover, American Express, and MasterCard. It also allows cryptocurrency payments from Bitcoin, Ethereum, and XRP alongside PayPal, Google Pay, and Amazon Pay.
IPVanish doesn’t support cryptocurrencies. It has card payment support for MasterCard, VISA, American Express, Discover, and Union Pay.
You can also pay using PayPal, Google Pay, and Amazon Pay.
Both VPNs fall within the same price range. Both offer a wide range of payment options like credit cards and online payment methods, which makes things convenient for their users. However, Surfshark wins this round for being slightly cheaper than IPVanish and offering cryptocurrency payment options.
