Protect production deployments for free on every plan
PreviewVerifiedAdded Sep 22, 2026
Vercel Authentication can now protect all deployments in a project, including production, at no additional cost on every plan. Previously, protecting production domains required the $150-per-month Advanced Deployment Protection add-on. When enabled, visitors must sign in with a Vercel account that has access to the project.
