About This Deal
McAfee Internet Security subscriptions at a one-time Groupon price. Internet Security bundles award-winning antivirus, unlimited Secure VPN, identity monitoring, and a password manager across Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and ChromeOS. Internet Security is the lighter core (antivirus + firewall + web protection) for a single PC. Starting at $12.99 for the Internet Security 1-Device 1-Year option.
What’s in the box — 1 Device vs 3 Devices
Internet Security bundles the full consumer security suite: antivirus engine, unlimited Secure VPN, identity monitoring with dark-web breach alerts, password manager (True Key), firewall, web protection, file shredder, and track remover. Cross-platform on Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and ChromeOS. Available in 1 or 3 device tiers, 1-year or 2-year terms.
Internet Security is the lighter core — antivirus + firewall + web protection + file shredder + track remover on a single PC, without VPN, identity monitoring, or password manager. Best for a single Windows laptop where the add-on features aren’t needed.
All options on this deal activate as standard McAfee consumer subscriptions on McAfee’s own servers. Coverage starts from the date of activation and runs for the full term (1 or 2 years) with no auto-renewal after.
McAfee Internet Security — Core Features
Internet Security is the McAfee consumer flagship. Every Internet Security option on this deal ships with the same full feature set — the tiers differ only in how many devices and how many years of coverage. Cross-platform installers for Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and ChromeOS are all downloaded from McAfee’s own servers after activation.
- Award-winning antivirus engine — real-time threat blocking, ransomware shield, zero-day protection (AV-TEST scored 6/6/6 in December 2024)
- Unlimited Secure VPN — encrypted tunnel with no data cap on Windows, macOS, iOS, and Android
- Identity monitoring — breach alerts for email, SSN, and credit-card numbers with dark-web scanning
- McAfee Password Manager (True Key) — auto-fill and cross-device sync
- Firewall, web / link protection, file shredder, track remover
- Cross-platform: Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, ChromeOS
Multi-Device Plans — 1 or 3 Devices
Pick the tier that matches your household. Every device slot can hold a Windows PC, a Mac, a phone, a tablet, or a Chromebook — McAfee is OS-agnostic, so you can mix and match. If you outgrow the tier later, you remove old devices from your McAfee account and add new ones in their place.
- 1 Device — one laptop or desktop. Cheapest way in at $12.99 for the year.
- 3 Devices — a small household: two laptops plus a phone, or a PC plus an iPad plus an Android phone. $34.99 for 2 years (best value).
The 2-Year Option — Locks In Pricing Up Front
McAfee’s 2-year options ship as a single voucher for the full 24-month term. You pay once, activate once, and your subscription runs uninterrupted for 2 years before it expires. Because this is a one-time Groupon voucher purchase, there is no payment method stored with McAfee after activation — when the 2 years end, the subscription ends cleanly instead of auto-renewing at McAfee’s standard renewal price.
- Pay once, use for 24 months — no mid-term charges
- No payment method on file with McAfee after activation
- Subscription expires on day 731 — no surprise re-charge
- Works for both Internet Security and Internet Security 2-year options
