Wave of Discount Campaigns in the Iranian VPN Market

Throughout the day, lively competition was recorded in the Iranian VPN market, as several Telegram channels reported "discount festivals" and time-limited promotions to attract customers. The market is currently characterized by a struggle over the price per gigabyte and attempts by providers to differentiate themselves using technologies such as "Starlink" or "WireGuard".

ATHENA SHOP led the trend with an announcement of a "sale opened" at a price of 105,000 Tomans per gigabyte, noting that it is a "market-breaking discount". Simultaneously, خبرفوری published a detailed price list including "Eco" and "VIP" plans, emphasizing the performance gap between the two.

Other providers turned to different strategies: Elisa Vpn Fast claims that its service is "not a tunnel but Starlink," while committing to exceptionally low ping data. At the same time, the channel dark netvpn offered competitive prices for VIP and Star plans, while emphasizing that "the opportunity is limited for a short time".

The incentive sector also entered the picture, with کانال مجله سرگرمی جوک and هات نیوز reporting on the "Badban" brand, which offers a discount code for the first purchase and 10% referral commissions. On the other hand, RED VPN focused on selling quality, with a service including "dedicated IP of Germany and Turkey".

Despite the intense competition, the market remains fragmented and relies mostly on individual transactions via Telegram bots. Prices for a single gigabyte ranged from 105,000 Tomans among some advertisers to over 250,000 Tomans in other services, which indicates significant differences in the valuation of connection stability and speed.
