V9VPN Setup Guide

No email address is required: V9VPN accounts use a username and password. Open the account creation page in the user dashboard, enter the username and password you want to use, and follow the prompts to submit. You'll use your username to sign in, so choose one you can remember accurately. Use a unique password and save it in a trusted password manager.

After creating your account, you should be able to open the user dashboard or sign in as prompted. Check that you're signed in with the correct username before choosing a plan. If you already have an account, sign in with it; there's no need to create another account just because you're using a different device. Keep your plan, orders, and subscription under the same account so they're easy to find.

Before continuing, make sure your login details are saved. Your account credentials and subscription link serve different purposes: use your credentials to manage the service in the dashboard, and give the subscription link to your client to load route configurations. Don't enter your account password in the client's subscription URL field or share account details in public forums.

Monthly plans include ¥9.9/month with 60GB, ¥18/month with 250GB, and ¥28/month with 500GB. Data resets monthly on the activation date. In the dashboard's plans section, compare each data allowance, then check the price and billing terms. Web browsing, file transfers, and video streaming use different amounts of data, so choose based on how you plan to use the service. You don't need to base your choice on the number of platforms supported by the client, since there is no device limit for simultaneous connections.

If you'd rather pay based on usage, consider a data package: ¥158/300GB, ¥358/1000GB, or ¥658/3000GB. Data remains available until used and never expires. The difference between a data package and a monthly plan is how data is allocated, so check which option you're ordering. If you upgrade a monthly plan partway through, the price difference is converted into remaining days; check the order details in the dashboard for the exact result.

After choosing a plan, review its name, price, and data allowance again on the order confirmation page. Follow the prompts to pay with Alipay, WeChat Pay, or USDT. When payment is complete, return to the user dashboard and check the order status and plan details. If the external payment page confirms payment but the dashboard hasn't updated, refresh the order status first instead of submitting the same order again.

V9VPN offers a 14-day no-questions-asked refund. Compare prices and data terms on the Plans page, and see the Terms of Service for refund details. Once the dashboard shows that your plan is active, go to the account overview to get your subscription. An active plan does not mean your device is already connected.

Sign in to get your subscription. Open the account overview in the dashboard, check your plan status and available data, then find the subscription section. If the dashboard offers one-click import for your client, use it after installing the client. To import manually, copy the subscription link and give the full URL to your client.

A subscription is a link your client uses to load and update route configurations, not a website to keep opening in your browser. After copying it, go to the client's subscription or configuration settings rather than searching for the link as a regular web address. When pasting it manually, check for spaces, line breaks, or missing characters at either end. Make sure you copy the complete URL, not just the shortened portion visible on screen.

Treat your subscription link as private credentials. Don't include it in public screenshots, group chats, or online testing sites, and don't let others paste it into unfamiliar tools on your behalf. If you need to share a screenshot to troubleshoot an issue, hide the full link and any credentials it contains; the error message, platform, and steps taken are usually enough.

If no subscription is available in the account overview, go back and check that you're signed in to the right account and that your order is active, then review the dashboard prompts. Reinstalling the client usually won't fix a plan that hasn't taken effect. If the status is still unclear, submit a support ticket through the dashboard; that will help identify the issue more effectively than creating another account.

Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and Linux are supported. Open the dashboard's download area and choose the option for your device. Use the V9VPN client and import method provided there whenever possible. Sign in to get a client for Windows, macOS, Android, or Linux; iOS access follows the active plan requirements shown in the dashboard. Getting a client and getting a working subscription are separate steps—you'll still need to load your subscription after installation.

Windows: Load Your Subscription or Configuration

Get the Windows desktop client from the dashboard's download area, install it as prompted, and launch it. If one-click import is available, return to your browser and select the relevant option, then allow the browser to open the installed client. In the client, check that the new subscription appears in the configuration list and set it as the active configuration.

To import manually, find the subscription, configuration, or add-configuration option in the client. Choose to add a link, paste the full URL copied from the account overview, and save it. Update the subscription to load the route list. Then enable the system proxy or another supported connection mode as prompted by the client. Simply opening the client without enabling a connection won't route other apps through it.

macOS: Check the Configuration and System Permissions After Import

Get the macOS desktop client from the dashboard, install it, and launch the app. You can start with the dashboard's one-click import option. If your browser asks to open a client, make sure it's the correct app before confirming. To import manually, open the client's configuration settings, choose the link subscription option, paste the URL, save it, and update the subscription.

Once the route list appears, select the configuration you just added and allow the network permissions the client needs. If macOS displays an authorization prompt, check the app name and purpose before approving it. Then confirm that the client shows a connected status and test access in an app or browser. A menu bar icon usually only means the app is running; it doesn't by itself confirm that the connection is working.

Android: Add a Link and Allow the VPN Connection

Get the Android client from the dashboard's download area and follow the installation prompts on your device. After launching the app, use the dashboard's one-click import option if available. If the client doesn't open automatically, go to its subscription or configuration settings, choose to add from a link, paste your subscription, and update it. When the update succeeds, you should see a list of routes to choose from.

When you select a configuration and connect, Android may ask you to authorize a VPN connection. Check the app name and approve the request. Once connected, open the app you want to use and test it. If the connection drops when the client moves to the background, check the app's background activity and battery settings in Android. Settings vary by device; see the Help Center for troubleshooting. For now, complete the import and connection steps.

iOS: Get the Client Through the Dashboard and Add Your Subscription

Sign in to the dashboard and confirm that your plan is active, then follow the iOS access option shown in the download area. iOS client access follows the active plan requirements listed in the dashboard. Don't use installers for other platforms on iOS or look for replacement downloads on unknown sites.

After installation, return to the dashboard and use the relevant import option. To add the subscription manually, find the subscription, configuration, or add-by-URL option in the client, paste the full subscription URL, and save it. Once the routes have updated, connect and approve the VPN configuration when prompted by iOS. Return to the client, select the configuration, and confirm that it's connected before opening the website or app you want to use.

Linux: Follow the Instructions Provided in the Dashboard

Linux users can sign in and get a client from the dashboard's download area, then follow the installation and configuration instructions provided there. The core import steps are the same: add the subscription, update the routes, and select a configuration. Terminal tools, desktop apps, and system network settings may behave differently. First connect through the desktop client, then test the apps you actually use; don't assume that every process automatically uses the same proxy settings.

Coverage includes 120+ countries and 210+ routes. Choose a route that meets the location requirements of the service you want to use. Make sure your subscription is up to date and the right configuration is selected, then connect in the client. If the client has a rule-based routing mode, start with its suitable default rules; you don't need to change advanced settings just to make your first connection.

Once the client shows a successful connection, open the international website you want to use and check that its pages and features load. You can also check My IP to get an idea of your browser's current exit IP. Rule-based routing may send different requests along different paths, so an IP lookup alone can't confirm that every app is using the proxy. Test the target app as well.

If a website opens but you can't sign in, or only one AI tool shows an error, note the exact message and check the service's regional and account requirements. A working network connection doesn't guarantee that a platform will allow access, nor does it mean every client setting is wrong. For information on regional checks, streaming responses, and developer environment configuration, see the AI Tools Guide. You don't need to troubleshoot all of this during initial setup.

If none of the sites you want to use will load, retrace the setup in order: check your plan and data, see whether the subscription updates, confirm that a configuration is selected and system permissions are granted, then make sure the connection is enabled. Change one setting at a time and test again. This makes it easier to identify what helped than changing routes, configurations, and connection modes all at once.

There is no device limit, so you can repeat the client download and subscription import steps on other supported platforms without creating a separate account for each device. Keep an eye on data usage in the dashboard when transferring large files or watching videos. Disconnect when you're done if you prefer. If the route list has changed before your next connection, update the subscription first.
