As is almost always the case, you'll save money by paying in advance, but Dashlane says it wanted to give customers more flexibility. The company also introduced monthly payment options, with the Essentials and Premium plans coming in at $2.49 and $3.99 every 30 days. Dashlane also offers a free tier that allows you to access your vault on one device and save up to 50 passwords. So if you decide to go with the Essentials plan, you don't need to download two separate apps to secure your logins in that way. That said, you still get access to two-factor authentication.

Most notably, it doesn't come with its dark web monitoring tool, and you can't use the built-in VPN. Outside of the device limit, the Essentials tier is also missing some features found in the company's more expensive $40 per year Premium plan. The plan allows you to access all your passwords on two devices for $24 per year if you pay upfront. Password manager Dashlane has introduced a new Essentials tier to its pricing structure.
