An annual membership to Dashlane’s premium password manager is on sale for just $39, which is more than $20 off and a 35 percent savings. Just use the code “SEPT35” at checkout. The company says this is to celebrate something called Cyber Security Awareness Month, which actually doesn’t end until October. It’s always nice to see a new holiday on the scene.

However, this deal is for the premium plan, which includes unlimited password and passkey storage. Users also get phishing alerts to stay on top of attacks, dark web surveillance and more. The program even comes with a VPN, which I found very useful for watching my news when I’m in another country.
Dashlane has earned a spot on our list of the best password managers. We recommend the robust features and note that some of these tools, such as password storage, are also available in a free version. We’ve also called a secure sharing function, with password sharing baked right into the system. It is also available on multiple platforms, including macOS, iOS, Android, Chrome, Firefox, Safari, Opera and other browsers.
There is one major platform missing, however, which could be a dealbreaker for some. Dashlane does not support Linux. There is also the issue of annual subscriptions. There’s no telling how much it will cost next year, or whether changing password managers isn’t as difficult as it used to be. There is a free plan if the price goes up too much. The deal ends on September 22.
