@evacide

You can actually pay Posteo in cash by mail: send banknotes in an envelope with a code to Posteo.

@Tutanota as alternative does not offer direct cash payment, but you can buy Tuta gift cards cash same way via the reseller Proxystore.

@protonprivacy also accepts cash payments according to their support, by sending physical money via post. You get the details by contacting Proton support…

But if you pay with a Creditcard, you have an US provider an board

@hlrx Also worth adding: for the IP address side of things, Mullvad VPN is a great match — you can even pay cash by mail, no account needed. Keeps the whole setup nicely anonymous if you have to.
