Frequently Asked Questions
Is LifeLock worth it in 2026?
For most people, no. Free credit monitoring from Credit Karma, Experian, or your credit card covers the basics. LifeLock's value is in its $1-3M insurance coverage and restoration services — useful only if you're a high-risk target (past identity theft, high net worth). At $12.49-34.99/mo, the cost adds up fast for protection you may never use.
How do I get a LifeLock discount?
LifeLock almost always has promotional first-year pricing (30-60% off). The key is at renewal: prices typically double. Call 1-800-543-3562 before your renewal date and say you're considering cancellation. The retention team will typically offer 30-50% off for another 6-12 months.
LifeLock vs Aura — which is cheaper?
Aura ($15/mo flat, no price increase) includes VPN, antivirus, and password manager — features that require LifeLock's most expensive plan ($34.99/mo). For equivalent coverage, Aura is roughly half the price. LifeLock's advantage is higher insurance coverage ($3M vs $1M) and the Norton 360 security suite bundle.
