You need a subscription to Mozilla VPN to be able to integrate the VPN with Multi-Account Containers. To become a subscriber, visit https://www.mozilla.org/en-US/products/vpn/.

Multi-Account Containers is a Firefox add-on that allows you to separate your shopping, work, banking, Facebook and personal browsing without having to delete your browsing history every time you exit the browser. To make it even more private, you can integrate Mozilla VPN into each container and choose a different location server for each one of them.

To use Multi-Account containers with Mozilla VPN follow the steps below:

  1. Install the Firefox Multi-Account Containers extension from the Mozilla Add-ons website.
  2. Look for the Containers icon ContainersIcon in the Firefox toolbar.
  3. If the extension detects that the VPN client is installed, the Mozilla VPN logo and a status indicator will be visible on the main panel.
