Find Your Perfect VPN Match
Answer five quick questions and receive a personalised recommendation from our expert-tested shortlist of the best UK VPNs for 2026.
How the VPN Quiz Works
Every VPN user has different priorities. Some need the fastest possible connection for 4K streaming on BBC iPlayer, while others care most about anonymous browsing under a strict no-logs policy. Budget matters too — a household with a dozen devices has very different requirements from a single laptop user. Our quiz is designed to capture these differences in under sixty seconds. Each question targets a key decision factor: your primary use case, monthly budget, number of devices, speed expectations, and technical comfort level. Behind the scenes, your answers are weighted against real performance data from our February 2026 test results.
Once you have answered all five questions, the quiz ranks all ten providers in our database and presents your top three matches with a clear explanation of why each one suits your profile. No sign-up is required, no data is stored, and you can retake the quiz as many times as you like. If you would prefer to compare providers manually, visit our interactive comparison table to sort and filter by any metric.

VPN Quiz – Frequently Asked Questions
How accurate are the quiz results?
The quiz uses a weighted scoring algorithm that maps your answers to real performance data collected during our February 2026 testing cycle. Each answer adjusts the weight given to metrics like speed, privacy, streaming reliability, value, and device support. The algorithm then scores all ten providers against your personalised profile and ranks them accordingly. While no automated tool can replace a full manual review, our quiz consistently matches users with a provider that aligns well with their stated priorities. For the most thorough evaluation, we recommend reading the detailed review of your top match after completing the quiz.
Can I retake the quiz with different answers?
Absolutely. After you see your results, click the “Retake Quiz” button to start again from the beginning. Your previous answers are not saved or tracked in any way — the quiz runs entirely in your browser and no data is sent to our servers. This makes it easy to explore different scenarios, for example comparing what the quiz recommends when you prioritise streaming versus privacy, or when your budget changes. Many users find it helpful to take the quiz twice: once with their ideal preferences and once with their minimum requirements, then compare the overlap.
What if my top result is a VPN I have never heard of?
Every VPN in our quiz has been thoroughly tested and reviewed by our editorial team. If your top match is a provider you are unfamiliar with, that is often a good sign — it means the algorithm has identified a strong fit that you might have overlooked. Click the “View Details” button on your result to read our full review, which covers pricing, server network, security features, streaming performance, and UK-specific strengths and weaknesses. You can also visit our comparison table to see how that provider stacks up against the others across every metric. All ten providers in our database offer a money-back guarantee (ranging from 3 to 45 days), so you can try any of them risk-free.
