Tips & Things to Watch For

Lifetime Plan is Non-Transferable and Non-Refundable After 10 Days

Critical

Once the 10-day refund window closes on a Lifetime plan, it becomes a permanent non-refundable purchase tied to your account. You cannot transfer it to another person or get your money back, even if you stop using the service. This is a significant commitment for what can be a $500+ purchase.

Multiple Email Verification Tasks for Extra Free Storage

Pro Tip

pCloud offers small amounts of bonus storage (typically 1GB each) for completing various verification tasks like email confirmation, installing mobile apps, and referring friends. While not substantial, these can boost your free storage from 10GB to potentially 20GB+ without paying.

Frequent Lifetime Plan Discounts (Up to 60% Off)

Pro Tip

pCloud regularly offers steep discounts on their Lifetime plans during Black Friday, Cyber Monday, and other promotional periods. Discounts can reach 50-60% off. If you're considering the lifetime plan, wait for these sales events rather than paying full price. They also occasionally offer flash sales throughout the year.
