Interface labels may vary by platform, client, and version. The steps below follow this flow: “Subscription / Configuration → Import → Update → Connect.” Use the labels shown in your dashboard and client. If they differ, look for the equivalent function. Don’t paste your subscription link into an account login field or a regular browser address bar.
Create an account and open the dashboard
Use the button below to open the VPNTU account creation page. Set a username and password; no email address is required. Choose a username that’s easy to recognize but doesn’t reveal personal information. Use a unique password and store it in a trusted password manager. Complete the steps on the page and follow the prompts to open the user dashboard. If you’re taken back to the login page, sign in with the username and password you just created.
Once you’re in the dashboard, check the account overview to make sure you’re signed in to the account you intend to use. Dashboard sign-in and connecting to a route are separate steps: the dashboard is where you manage your plan and get the client and subscription; signing in doesn’t connect this device to an international route. You don’t need to look for a login field in the client or change your browser’s network settings. Next, choose a billing option in the dashboard.
If you can’t complete account creation, first read the message on the page. If your username is already taken, choose another one; if the entries don’t match, check what you entered. If you already have an account, go to the login page instead of creating another. For account issues you can’t resolve, see the Help Center’s account and subscription guide before placing an order.
Choose a plan and confirm activation
Open the Plans section in the user dashboard and choose between a monthly subscription and a data package. Monthly subscriptions suit regular use, with data resetting each month on the activation date. Data packages suit occasional use: the data lasts until it’s used and never expires. The difference is how data is replenished, so don’t compare plans by price alone. Consider whether you mainly use AI tools briefly or often stream video and transfer files, then check the relevant data tier.
Monthly subscriptions include ¥9.9/month for 60GB, ¥18/month for 250GB, and ¥28/month for 500GB. Data packages include ¥158 for 300GB, ¥358 for 1000GB, and ¥658 for 3000GB. After choosing a plan, review the price, data allowance, and billing terms on the order page, then pay with Alipay, WeChat Pay, or USDT. All plans support unlimited devices and include a 60-day money-back guarantee. See the Terms of Service for details.
After payment, return to the account overview and check that your plan is shown as active. The payment confirmation and plan status in the dashboard should match. If the status hasn’t updated, refresh the order and overview pages and confirm you’re in the right account before trying again. If you need support to check the order, provide its details in a dashboard ticket. Don’t post payment records publicly.
When you upgrade a monthly subscription mid-cycle, the price difference is converted into the remaining days. This differs from data packages, which never expire. For now, confirm your plan type and that it’s active; see the Plans page for a detailed comparison. Once the plan is active, continue to the subscription step to avoid repeated download or import attempts before access is ready.
Get your subscription link and keep it safe
Open the account overview and look for the subscription link or client import option. The subscription link lets your client retrieve route configurations; it isn’t a regular webpage address, username, or password. If the dashboard offers an import option for your installed client, follow the prompt to open the app. Otherwise, copy the link and add it to the client manually in the next step.
Use the copy button in the dashboard to avoid missing the last characters. Don’t add quotation marks, spaces, or line breaks, and don’t send the link through a chat app that might truncate it. To use another device, sign in to the dashboard on that device and get the link there. This reduces how often the link passes between apps and helps ensure you import the subscription for the right account.
Your subscription link is an account credential. Don’t share it publicly, include it in public documents, or post client screenshots that show the full link. When troubleshooting, share the error message and client name, but hide the link.
After getting your subscription, open Downloads in the dashboard and choose your device’s platform. You must be signed in to download the client and get the subscription from the dashboard. Available downloads depend on your plan status and the dashboard instructions; this guide doesn’t provide public installer links. Once the client is installed, follow the instructions for your platform below. Copying the link is only the first step—the client still needs to update its configuration and display the available routes.
Import the subscription and select a configuration
First, get the client for your device from the Downloads section of the user dashboard, then import your subscription. For Windows, macOS, and Android, use the VPNTU client provided in the dashboard. For iOS, follow the client instructions and App Store link listed there. Don’t assume compatibility based on app names in other guides: the client’s supported subscription type must match the import option available in your dashboard.
Windows: Add a subscription or configuration
Install the VPNTU client provided in the dashboard on your Windows device, then open it. Go to the subscription or configuration manager and look for an option to add or import a link, or import from the clipboard. Paste the subscription link you copied from the account overview, save it, and update. If the dashboard’s one-click import opens the client, check the link and configuration name before confirming. There’s no need to add the same configuration again manually.
After the update, check that the configuration and its available routes appear, then select the one you just imported. If the client offers system proxy or other network routing modes, enable the mode suited to everyday browsing as prompted. Check the app’s source before approving any system permission request. Don’t run another proxy app at the same time, or it may be unclear which settings your browser is using. Keep the client open; after connecting, you’ll verify the result in a browser.
macOS: Check network permissions after importing
On macOS, get the appropriate VPNTU client from the dashboard and install it, then open the subscription or configuration page. Add the subscription using the link or clipboard import option, and update the route list. If your browser asks whether to open the client, make sure it matches the app you installed before continuing. Importing saves the configuration; after the update, you also need to select it for use.
macOS may ask you to authorize a network configuration or related component when you connect. Follow the client and system prompts one at a time; don’t try to solve the issue by changing macOS security settings. Select a route and connect, then check that the client shows a connected status. If the import succeeded but apps behave as before, first check the client’s network routing mode, then follow the verification steps below. If you’re unsure about a permission prompt, check the Help Center’s platform-specific instructions.
Android: Update the subscription, then allow the connection
On your Android device, sign in to the dashboard and download the VPNTU client from Downloads. Open the client’s subscription or configuration manager, paste the subscription link, save it, and update. You can also use the matching import option in the dashboard. Once the route list appears, select the configuration and a route, then connect. When Android displays a VPN connection request, check which app is requesting access and follow the prompt to allow it.
If another VPN app is already connected on your device, disconnect it before starting the current client to avoid conflicts between connection states. After connecting, switch to your browser or the app you want to use and test it. If it works in the foreground but disconnects in the background, check the system’s background activity and battery settings for the client. Don’t change several system settings before confirming the basic connection works; it makes troubleshooting harder.
iOS: Follow the client links in the dashboard
On iOS, check the instructions in the dashboard’s Downloads section and use its App Store link to get a client that supports your subscription. After installation, return to the dashboard and use the import option for that app if available. To import manually, find the subscription, configuration, or remote configuration section in the client, add the link, and update. Enter the subscription link in a link field, not a server address or account login field.
After importing, select the configuration, choose a route, and connect. If iOS asks to add a VPN configuration, follow the prompt to authorize it, then return to the client and check the connection status. The VPN indicator in the status bar only shows that a related connection is enabled; it doesn’t confirm that a specific service is accessible. Open the app and test it. If tapping the dashboard’s import link doesn’t open the client, make sure the app is installed and opens on its own, then try importing manually.
VPNTU also supports Linux; check the dashboard’s Downloads section for the client and instructions. For compatibility questions about other platforms or subscription formats, see the Help Center. For more detail on route types and routing modes, see the Plan Selection Guide. For now, continue with the connection test on this page.
Connect to a route and verify it works
Once your configuration is imported, choose a route that suits what you want to do. Japan, Hong Kong, and US IEPL routes are options for access from those regions. You can also try Singapore relay, UK direct, or Canada direct routes. The available routes are the ones shown after the client updates. For your first test, stick with one exit location and confirm it works before comparing alternatives. Don’t switch regions repeatedly while a page is still loading.
Once connected, open an international website you use regularly and check that it loads fully. Then open the AI tool, streaming service, or meeting app you actually need. If regular websites work but a specific service still shows an error, note the message and check whether it relates to the connection or the service’s own account, region, or permission requirements. Changing your network exit doesn’t provide account eligibility or guarantee access to every content library.
To check the exit region, look at the region information or session details provided by the service and compare them with your selected route. Browsers may keep an existing session, and apps may retain cached data. After switching routes, close and reopen the app before checking again. Test streaming by playing content, meetings by checking audio and video, and AI tools by confirming a request completes—not just that the home page opens.
If no routes appear in the client, return to the subscription section and check the update status. If routes appear but won’t connect, try another available route in the same region, then check your local network. If the client says it’s connected but your browser behaves the same, check the selected configuration, network routing mode, and whether another proxy app is running. Change one setting at a time and test again so you can identify the cause without confusing import and connection issues.
If the problem persists, see the Help Center’s connection and troubleshooting guide or open a support ticket in the user dashboard. Include your client platform, route name, what you were doing, and the error message. Hide account credentials and your subscription link before sharing screenshots. Once the connection is verified, sign in to the same account on your other devices to get the subscription. VPNTU supports unlimited devices; choose a plan with enough data for your needs.
You’re set up when the subscription updates, a configuration is selected, the route connects, and the target app completes the task you need. For help choosing an exit, comparing route types, or setting up devices at home, see Global Locations and the Plan Selection Guide.
