pCloud lifetime deal
pCloud sells lifetime cloud storage: pay once, keep a fixed amount of storage with no monthly fees. The question this page answers isn't how good pCloud is as a cloud storage service, it's whether that lifetime plan is still being kept years after people paid. Right now the register holds no verified buyer report on pCloud either way, so its honoring status is open; nobody has yet documented here, with receipts, whether a pCloud lifetime account still holds its full storage, still syncs and still keeps its files. If you hold a pCloud lifetime plan, confirm it still works or report a breakage. The seal stays unearned until a verified confirmation lands, and a single verified, unrebutted breakage would keep it off automatically. While a deal is unverified the register shows no affiliate link for it; links appear only on verified-honored deals. No pricing page, review or AI tool answers the honoring question, only a buyer.

pCloud is a Swiss-based cloud storage service, founded in 2013 and operated by pCloud International AG, a company registered in Switzerland. It stores, syncs and shares files across Windows, macOS, Linux, iOS and Android: a virtual pCloud Drive mounts your storage like a local disk, folders sync between devices, and it handles backup for computers and phones, pCloud Photos for photo management and a built-in media player for streaming. Shared links and file transfers handle sharing. You can choose to keep files in Europe or the USA. pCloud says it has 22M+ users in 130+ countries, roughly 22 million users worldwide by its own count. On security, pCloud describes its storage as encrypted, but client-side, zero-knowledge encryption, where you encrypt sensitive files on your device before upload so pCloud cannot read them, is a separate paid add-on, pCloud Encryption (formerly pCloud Crypto). The company also sells pCloud Pass, a password manager, and runs a free plan. Against Google Drive and Dropbox, which sell storage only as a monthly or annual subscription, pCloud's distinctive offer as a secure cloud storage solution is the one-time payment lifetime plan: lifetime access to a fixed storage plan without monthly fees.
The lifetime deal
pCloud announced its lifetime plans in August 2017, pitching them as a first for the cloud storage market, at launch $125 for 500 GB and $250 for 2 TB, against roughly $480 and $980 for ten years of an equivalent subscription (IT Pro, 31 Aug 2017). The company itself dates to 2013; the lifetime offer came about four years later. Since then lifetime plans have been sold mainly direct, with steady promotional pricing around Black Friday, summer and back-to-school, and through marketplaces: StackSocial lists a pCloud Premium 500 GB lifetime subscription. Today pCloud offers lifetime plans in three individual storage options on its pricing page, Premium 500GB, Premium Plus 2TB and Ultra 10TB, plus Family lifetime plans for up to five users. On definition, pCloud's Terms and Conditions are explicit: a lifetime plan is in effect for the lifetime of the account owner or 99 years, whichever is shorter. That is a vendor-published term, not a register verdict; the register holds no verified report on how pCloud has treated lifetime holders over time.
Pricing
A pCloud lifetime storage plan is a one-time payment that replaces a monthly subscription or annual cloud storage subscription; pCloud's pricing page says prices are final, with no setup fees or hidden charges. When checked in October 2026 it listed lifetime storage in euros at 219 for 500 GB, 499 for 2 TB and 1,499 for 10 TB, with higher struck-through figures beside them; pCloud runs frequent sales and prices vary by region and date, so the register does not fix a lifetime price; check pCloud pricing in 2026 on the live page. Encryption is an extra cost: pCloud Encryption is bought separately, so budget the encryption costs alongside the lifetime price. pCloud's terms give a 14-day money-back guarantee, requested in writing, and allow pCloud to decline refunds on promotional or discounted purchases. The StackSocial listing sets its own terms: redeem within 30 days, a 10-day refund window, not valid for existing Premium, Premium Plus or Crypto users, and promotional accounts with no login for 12 months or more are deleted. Whichever storage plan you pick, confirm the current terms and keep your receipt.
Signals to watch
What to watch, the way any lifetime deal breaks, read here for storage: the company stops honoring old lifetime accounts or codes, so they no longer unlock the storage paid for; it caps or shrinks what a tier included, a quota cut, lower link traffic or lost files; features a lifetime plan was sold with move behind a new paid add-on or subscription; or the service is shut down or support for legacy accounts is abandoned, which for cloud storage means data loss. One storage-specific check sits in the marketplace fine print: StackSocial's terms delete promotional accounts after 12 months without a login, so a holder should log in regularly. None of these is recorded on pCloud's record here today, because no verified report exists yet; they are simply the signals the register tracks, and the reason a buyer's confirmation, backed by receipts, counts for more than any announcement.
FAQ
Is the pCloud lifetime deal still honored?
On this register, unconfirmed. No buyer has yet verified, with receipts, that a pCloud lifetime account still holds its full storage and still syncs. pCloud still sells lifetime plans, but a vendor's sales page doesn't earn the seal, a verified buyer confirmation does. Hold a pCloud lifetime plan? File the first one.
Does the pCloud lifetime plan expire?
Not on a renewal cycle. pCloud's Terms and Conditions define a lifetime plan as lasting for the lifetime of the account owner or 99 years, whichever is shorter. In practice, like every lifetime deal, it also lasts only as long as the company keeps operating and honoring it, which is what this page tracks. The 12-month inactivity deletion rule in pCloud's terms is written for free accounts; marketplace codes can carry their own rules, so check yours.
Is the pCloud lifetime deal worth it?
It depends on your storage needs and horizon. The lifetime price replaces years of a monthly or annual cloud storage subscription, so the math favors people who will use the same 500GB, 2TB or 10TB lifetime cloud storage for many years. Factor in that client-side encryption is an extra cost, and confirm the refund window before buying.
Is the pCloud lifetime deal legit or a scam?
The register takes no view on intent and holds no verified report on pCloud either way. Factually, pCloud has operated since 2013, sells lifetime plans directly from its own pricing page and publishes the lifetime definition and refund terms in its Terms and Conditions. Whether the promise holds is what a verified holder report would document.
Does the pCloud lifetime plan include encryption?
Not client-side encryption. Lifetime storage plans cover the storage itself; zero-knowledge, client-side encryption is sold separately as pCloud Encryption (formerly Crypto). Check what your plan includes before you pay.
Have pCloud lifetime deals been discontinued?
No. When checked in October 2026, pCloud's pricing page still listed 500 GB, 2 TB and 10 TB lifetime plans, plus Family lifetime plans, and StackSocial still listed a 500 GB lifetime offer. Prices and promotions change often, so check the live pricing page.
