How Papaya Privacy Stacks Up Against the Competition

How Papaya Privacy compares to LifeLock and Aura services
Andrew L.

If you've started looking into identity theft protection, you want a plan that helps prevent scams, spam and data thieves, as well as helps you recover in case identity theft occurs.

What Papaya Privacy does

Papaya Privacy protects your family in three ongoing steps:

  • Scan. Papaya scans data broker sites to find your exposed personal data — phone numbers, email addresses, home addresses, and more — that could put you at risk of fraud.
  • Remove. Papaya automatically submits removal requests on your behalf, saving you the hours it would take to track down and opt out of each site yourself.
  • Monitor. Data brokers regularly re-expose your information, so Papaya continuously rescans and resubmits removal requests, while also monitoring the dark web for breaches involving your email, phone number, Social Security number, or address.

Every plan also includes $1M identity theft insurance with a zero deductible and full-service identity restoration — help with everything from DMV and court records to IRS issues and payday loan fraud if you ever become a victim. And it's not just for you: a single Papaya Privacy subscription covers you and up to four family members.

Comparison to other privacy services
  • Papaya Privacy: $39/month — covers you and up to 4 family members (5 people total)
  • LifeLock: $47.99/month for comparable family coverage
  • Aura: $47.99/month for its family plan, billed monthly

That's $8.99 less per month than either competitor — nearly $108 a year in savings — for covering the same five people.

Data broker coverage

Papaya covers over 75 more sites than LifeLock and 150 more than Aura — all while charging less per month for the family plan.

Why this matters

More broker sites covered means fewer places your family's name, address, and phone number sit exposed for scammers, telemarketers, and identity thieves to find. Paying less while covering more isn't a tradeoff — for families protecting more than one person, it's simply a better deal.

Why choose Papaya Privacy?

Removing your data from these sites is crucial but time-consuming. Papaya Privacy automatically removes your data from these sites, saving you time and protecting your digital identity.
