VIP is Guardio's top plan. It protects up to 5 people, and it adds a personal security expert who helps you set things up and answers your security questions. Every Guardio plan includes our full protection.
Seeing a VIP charge you don't recognize?
VIP is offered as an upgrade at sign-up or after sign-up. If you said yes, it's charged then, usually as the difference in price, so it may not match a listed price. On a card statement it shows as GUARDIO*VIP.
- Didn't mean to add VIP? Turn VIP off yourself.
- More questions about the charge? See Why was I charged by Guardio?
What VIP includes
- Guardio protection for up to 5 people. You count as one of the 5. Each person gets their own sign-in.
