Create an Account
First create the account used to manage orders, subscriptions, and support tickets. Registration requires only a username and password; no email address is required.
After opening the OvVPN account-creation page, choose a username used only for this service, then set a password that differs from those used on other websites. Check that all fields are complete before submitting. The username identifies the account and is used to sign in; the password protects the user panel. After submission, the page will open the user panel or prompt you to return to the login page. Use the username and password you just created.
After signing in, confirm that the page shows the account overview, plan entry, and subscription section. A new account without an active plan may not yet have subscription details that can be used for a connection; this is normal. Do not enter a server address manually in the client or look for configuration on unofficial pages. Go directly to the plans page so the order is linked to the current account.
Your account credentials and the subscription link you obtain later serve different purposes: the username and password open the user panel, while the subscription link transfers route configuration to the client. Keep both under the account holder’s control. When using a shared device, sign out of the user panel afterward and avoid leaving the browser signed in for an extended period.
You can enter the OvVPN user panel with your username and password and see the plan and account-overview entries.
Choose a Plan and Place an Order
Choose a monthly subscription based on monthly usage, or a permanent data package based on your expected total usage.
On the plans page, first decide how you expect to use the service. Monthly subscriptions are ¥9.9/month with 60GB, ¥18/month with 250GB, and ¥28/month with 500GB; data resets monthly on the activation date. They suit ongoing use when you want a fixed amount of data each billing cycle. Data packages cost ¥158/300GB, ¥358/1000GB, and ¥658/3000GB. They last until used and never expire, making them better for irregular usage based on total consumption.
After confirming the plan, click “Start Using” or “Choose This Plan” on the plan card to open the order-confirmation page. Check the plan name, data allowance, and price, then choose an available payment method from Alipay, WeChat Pay, or USDT. After payment, return to the user panel; do not create the same order again. If the page still shows processing, refresh the order or account overview and wait for the status to sync before continuing.
When upgrading a monthly subscription mid-cycle, the price difference is converted into remaining days. For your first connection, there is no need to calculate long-term usage in advance; choose based on your usual devices and primary needs. OvVPN does not limit the number of devices, but all devices use the plan data under the same account. After importing the subscription on multiple devices, monitor total usage rather than treating “unlimited devices” as separate data allowances for each device.
This service offers a 60-day no-questions-asked refund. This guide covers the connection process only; eligibility and handling follow the formal terms in the Refund Policy. Once the order is active, return to the account overview to get the subscription link associated with your account instead of continuing to look for an installer.
The order in the user panel is active, and the account overview shows the current plan or available data.
Get the Subscription Link
The user panel provides a subscription link that writes the routes available to the current account into the client.
After the order becomes active, open the account overview and find the subscription section. The page usually provides options such as copy subscription, import into client, or update subscription. Choose copy to place the link on the system clipboard. Then switch to the OvVPN client and paste it into the subscription-import field; there is no need to manually split any part of the link.
The subscription link may resemble the example below, but the actual value must come from your own user panel. The address below is for format demonstration only and cannot be used to connect:
https://example.com/sub?token=YOUR_TOKEN
The credentials in the link are tied to the current account. Do not post them on forums, in groups, screenshots, or public documents. Anyone who obtains the link may consume account data or take control of the client configuration. If the link has been exposed, stop using the old link and handle an update through the user panel or support-ticket entry; do not simply delete the local client and continue using the old value.
Before copying, check that the link begins completely. After copying, do not rewrite it in a text editor or add a period, spaces, or line breaks. If clipboard permission is restricted, select the complete link in the panel and copy it manually. Once complete, keep the user-panel page available and proceed to the client-import step for the relevant platform.
The complete subscription link has been copied from the account overview and is ready to import on your own device.
Import into the Platform Client
Get the OvVPN client from the user panel first, then find the subscription-import entry for your device’s operating system. The marketing page does not provide static installer URLs.
Open the client-download area in the user panel and choose the platform for your device. Windows, macOS, Android, iOS, and Linux are supported. The client-download entry is linked to your account status, so remain signed in while completing this step. Import the subscription after installation. If the client is already open, do not create a blank route first; look for subscription management or configuration import.
CLIENT · WINDOWS
Windows
After opening the OvVPN Windows client, go to subscription or configuration management and choose an option such as “Import from link.” Paste the complete subscription link copied from the user panel, save it, and run an update. After updating, you should see routes listed by region. Select the region you need, but do not run other network proxy tools at the same time, as they may override one another’s connection state.
CLIENT · macOS
macOS
Get the OvVPN macOS client from the user panel and install it. When you open it for the first time, macOS may ask you to approve network-configuration access; follow the system prompts. Then open subscription management and choose add remote subscription or import from link, paste the link, and update it. When the route list appears, select the target region and start the connection with the client’s main switch.
CLIENT · ANDROID
Android
Install the OvVPN Android client and open its subscription page, then choose add subscription. Paste the link into the address field; you can name it with an identifiable OvVPN configuration name, then save and update it. Return to the route list, choose a region, and tap the connection switch. The first network connection may trigger a permission prompt; approve it and wait for the client to show that you are connected.
CLIENT · iOS
iOS
Install the supported client through the iOS download entry in the user panel. Open it and find subscription, remote configuration, or link-import options. Paste the subscription link and update it. When starting a route for the first time, iOS will ask to allow a network configuration to be added; approve it and return to the client. Select the target region and start the connection. The status bar and client page should show the connection status.
Entry names vary across platforms, but the criteria are the same: enter the complete subscription link, update it, and confirm that multiple regional routes appear. Select one route and start the connection. If pasting the link creates only one blank configuration, you are probably on the manual server-add page. Go back and use the subscription or remote-configuration entry instead.
To use OvVPN on another device, sign in to the same account and repeat the steps above. OvVPN does not limit the number of devices, but sharing subscription links through public channels is not recommended. The safer approach is to sign in to the user panel on your own device, copy the link, and import it directly into the local client.
The client has updated the subscription successfully and displays a list of regional routes to choose from.
Connect and Verify
A connected status in the client is only the first check. Also verify that web access and exit information change according to the selected region.
Choose the target region in the client’s route list and start the connection. Wait for the status to change from connecting to connected, then open a new browser page for testing. Do not switch rapidly between routes before the status stabilizes. Repeated switching changes the old connection, system network settings, and browser cache at once, making it harder to identify the source of an issue.
Open a familiar website first and confirm that it loads normally. Then open the OvVPN Network Check page and see whether the current exit region matches the selected route. The check is for verifying the current access path; there is no need to record or publish the result. If the original region is still shown, return to the client to confirm that the main switch is on, then check whether another proxy configuration is running in the browser or system.
If the route is active but the target service still reports a region mismatch, do not reinstall the client immediately. Disconnect the current route, switch to a route matching the target content region, and reconnect. Some websites retain old session data, so close the original page and verify from a new page. For the relationship between streaming account regions, payment regions, and route exits, see the Streaming Guide; platform rules are outside this page.
After checking, keep the routes you use most often. Before switching regions, disconnect the current route, choose the new region, and reconnect. This clearly ends the old path and reduces cases where the interface shows a switch while the network still uses the previous connection.
Connection Check Complete
- The client status shows connected.
- Familiar websites open normally.
- The network-check result matches the selected exit region.
- The previous route was disconnected before switching regions.
Basic Troubleshooting Order
Check only the steps directly related to the first connection. Advanced route behavior and platform restrictions are covered in the in-depth documentation.
No Routes After Importing the Subscription
First confirm that the order is active, then return to the user panel and copy the subscription link again. Delete the blank configuration that failed to import in the client, then open “Subscription,” “Remote configuration,” or “Import from link” and paste it again. If the link was truncated, recopy the complete value from the account overview; do not manually fill in missing characters.
Routes Appear but Cannot Connect
Disconnect the current connection, close and reopen the client, then update the subscription once more. Test another route for the target region and confirm that no other similar network tool is taking over the connection. If multiple clients are running, keep only the OvVPN client currently in use and reconnect.
The Client Shows Connected but the Exit Is Unchanged
Return to the client and confirm that system network permission has been granted and the main switch is still on. Then close the original browser page and reopen the network-check page. If the result remains unchanged, disconnect the route and reconnect to the target region. Do not keep refreshing the browser while ignoring the client status.
Continuing on a Different Device
Open the user panel on the new device, get the OvVPN client for the relevant platform, then copy the subscription link from the account overview and import it. You do not need a separate account for each device. All devices use the plan data under the same account, so review the data status centrally in the account overview.
