Monthly payments for yearly plans
Spending close to €200 for a 2 year unlimited plan in one payment right now is difficult for many people, and I believe you would get much more uptake if you allowed purchase using a monthly installment method.
I, for one, was about to buy your Proton Unlimited package until I discovered that I'd have to spend almost €200 in one go to get it.
Offering a monthly payment subscription option is a sound business model in these times of financial strain, so please can I ask that you at least consider the idea?
Thank you!

Hello! I am a loyal user and very satisfied with Proton’s products. To enhance the user experience and attract more premium members, I have a suggestion: consider offering a monthly subscription option for premium members.
Here are the details of the suggestion:
1. Monthly Subscription Option: Allow users to renew their premium membership on a monthly basis at a more affordable price, reducing the financial burden of a one-time payment.
2. Flexible Cancellation Policy: Provide the option to cancel at any time, giving users more confidence and freedom in deciding whether to continue the service.This approach can attract more users to become premium members and increase user loyalty and satisfaction. Thank you for valuing our feedback!
Looking forward to seeing Proton continue to improve.
I hope this suggestion is helpful! Let me know if you need any further adjustments or additions.

I think what some people are forgetting is that you can cancel your annual subscription at any time, and get refunded the remainder of unused time - which is like them receiving monthly payments. It does make a huge difference to customers trying to foot huge bills for an annual subscription all at once. Frankly I'd commit to a LONGER period if I could have the payments taken monthly. And I don't care for the idea of buying a "balance", because if something goes awry then I'm out that money all together. All the other services I have annual contracts with take monthly payments on them. Also, for those commenting on different monthly prices remember currency matters. Euros isn't the same for me as it is for someone else.

Hi,
You can do it, but not automatically, you just need to add a little money every month (equivalent to your desired monthly payments) to your Proton account (which are added in the form of credits), and at the time of pay Proton will take the price of your subscription from your credits, personally that's how I do it, and it's quite practical.From france with love

There is already monthly payment option for proton services, you can choose to pay per month, per 12 months or per 24 months.
if you pay (commit) on a longer time frame, you get a discounted price.
Proton unlimited is 11.99€ per month if you pay per month. 120€ per 12 month or 192€ per 24 months.
They can't give you the the 24 month price to pay monthly as it would mean you can block/stop the payment at any time without respecting your commitment.
