To help you spend more time with your family and less time solving tech issues, we’re introducing the Proton Pass Family plan. This plan gives you a password manager built for family life — perfect for helping your kids and parents stay safe online with ease. 

If you’re the designated tech support person for your children and parents, you understand the challenges: resetting passwords, setting up safety features, and finding tools that are easy enough for everyone to use on any platform. The right solution needs to handle it all.

Pass Family lets you have up to six family members on your plan (including you) for a limited-time price of $3.99/month on a 12-month plan, reduced from $4.99/month. Get this cost-effective plan and our user-friendly password manager to help everyone stay safe online.

By remembering your passwords for you, a password manager helps you use varied, strong passwords for all your online accounts. This is important because hackers target weak, reused passwords to steal your payment details, government IDs, home address, and other valuable data.

We introduced Proton Pass to our suite of privacy-first services because passwords are one of the keys to protecting your online identity. Proton Pass secures your logins with the same end-to-end encryption we use in Proton Mail, monitors the dark web for leaks, and offers hide-my-email aliases for additional privacy.  

Whether it’s due to a lack of experience with technology or a lack of confidence in how to use the internet, online safety isn’t always easy. Providing support for your kids or elderly parents is part of using the internet safely as a family. We created the Pass Family plan to help you do that.

Proton Pass can help keep your family safe

When you integrate Proton Pass into your day-to-day life, it’s faster and easier for every family member to use the internet. Here are a few examples of ways to keep your family safe online.

Help your parents access their accounts

Your parents may struggle to log in to their online accounts because they memorized variations of the same password for each account. When they forget which version belongs to which website, they lock themselves out. This is inconvenient and unsafe, as hackers can more easily brute-force attack common passwords. And endless password resets are time-consuming and frustrating for you and your parents.

With Proton Pass, your parents only need to remember one password to unlock everything they’ve stored in their account. They can use the built-in password generator to create a secure password or choose a more memorable passphrase


Using Proton Pass’s built-in password generator, you can help your parents create secure, unique passwords for each account in a few clicks and then store them in their private vault. Since Proton Pass autofills passwords on login pages, they won’t have to remember them anymore. To help them access their Proton Pass account more easily in the future, you can also help them set up a biometric login.

Share information securely with any family member

Often, parents need to share logins to school portals or bank accounts with each other, but sending passwords via instant message or email isn’t secure. It’s inconvenient to share information safely if you’re working across different platforms and in different locations.  


In your Pass Family account, all family members can create shared vaults where they can access family logins on any device. When you update a password in a shared vault, it’s instantly available for all other users. You can also easily share passwords safely with a single person (including people not included on your Pass Family plan) using a secure link.

Empower your children to use the internet safely

As your children begin to use the internet, there’s a lot to teach them about staying safe. Using their Proton Pass account, they can learn about the importance of creating strong and varied passwords, how email aliases can help them control their digital footprint, and how to safely access the tools their school provides them with. By teaching your kids early about online safety, they’ll have those digital skills for the rest of their lives. 

There’s a lot of responsibility when it comes to helping your family use the internet safely. But with the right tools, you can make it easier for yourself and your loved ones.

What’s included in your Pass Family plan

Pass Family offers a secure, end-to-end encrypted password manager ready for family life. Everyone has their own account and private vaults, and it’s easy to create a shared vault where the people you choose can safely share logins. Whether it’s just between parents or between parents and kids, it’s simple to configure. 

Pass Family gives you access to all of the Pass Plus plan’s premium features and lets you share them with up to six users. These features include:

Admins can easily manage the subscription, add or remove family members, and help their family members create shared vaults with each other for easy access. For enhanced flexibility, one or two family members can be admins for their family plan.

Sign up for a Pass Family plan today, and you’ll pay:

  • A limited-time price of $3.99 (reduced from $4.99) for a 12-month subscription
