VPN Setup Guide

Start by opening the PvVPN account setup page. You only need to choose a username and password, and no email address is required. Your username will be used to sign in to the user panel later, so choose a combination you can remember long term without reusing one from another important service. After entering the password, check the capitalization and character order once more, then submit the form.

After the page confirms that setup is complete, sign in with the username and password you just created. When the panel opens, you should see entry points for the account overview, plans, clients, and subscriptions. Your account is ready, but no subscription is available yet, so there is no need to configure a client or look for installation files or subscription content elsewhere. The next step is to choose a plan.

If the page remains unchanged after submission, first check whether the username is already in use or whether both password entries match. Correct the fields identified by the page and submit again. To avoid login problems later, confirm that you can enter the user panel successfully before placing an order.

On the plans page, first decide between a monthly subscription and a data package based on how you plan to use the service. Monthly subscriptions come in three tiers: ¥9.9/month with 60GB, ¥18/month with 250GB, and ¥28/month with 500GB. Data resets each month on the activation date; if you upgrade during the period, the price difference is prorated for the remaining days. Choose a monthly subscription if you expect ongoing use and want a fixed allowance each month.

Data packages remain valid until used and never expire. Available options are ¥158/300GB, ¥358/1000GB, and ¥658/3000GB. They suit users with irregular usage who prefer to consume data as needed. Because the two product types are measured differently, confirm whether the page shows a “monthly subscription” or “data package” before ordering, then check the allowance and price.

After choosing a tier, open the order confirmation page and check the plan name, data allowance, and amount. Payment is supported through Alipay, WeChat Pay, and USDT. After payment, return to the user panel and wait for the order status to update. Do not create the same order repeatedly during payment. If payment is complete but the page has not changed, refresh the order or account overview first. PvVPN offers a 60-day no-questions-asked refund policy; the full application and processing terms are set out in the Terms of Use.

After the order takes effect, open the account overview. The panel displays your current subscription status, data details, and client entry points. Find the subscription section and use the copy or import action provided. Subscription content lets the client obtain PvVPN route configurations, so get it from the current account panel rather than from search results, chat history, or links from other sources.

After copying, do not manually delete, add, or replace any characters. A real subscription is generated by the panel for your account, and this guide will not display a real address. When an example is needed to show the format, use an obviously fake value such as:

https://example.com/sub?token=YOUR_TOKEN

The address above cannot be used to connect; it only demonstrates how to copy the entire content. Real content must retain every character from start to finish. If the client offers both “Import by QR code” and “Copy subscription,” choose whichever is more convenient on your device. In either case, the source should be the signed-in user panel.

Subscription details are part of your account configuration. Do not place them on a public webpage, in a public code repository, or in documentation that others can read. After copying, keep the account overview available and continue by getting and importing the client for the platform you use.

PvVPN supports Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and Linux. This section covers only the essential path from obtaining a client to seeing the route list; protocol, routing-rule, and developer-tool configuration are outside its scope. Open the client page from the user panel rather than using a static installer URL. After installation, import the subscription obtained in the previous step.

After importing, choose a route from the client’s list that matches the target service’s regional requirements. PvVPN offers 90+ countries and 200+ routes. You do not need to test every route; start with one that fits the location and purpose. Click connect and wait until the client shows “Connected” or a system connection indicator appears.

After the status changes, do not rely on the client interface alone. Open the target website in a browser, reload it, and confirm that it opens normally, allows sign-in, and continues loading content. For an AI Tool, send a normal request and check that text continues to return. For a web service, complete at least one page navigation to confirm that the connection does not stop after the first request.

During verification, temporarily close old failed pages in the browser and open the target in a new tab. An old page may retain a failed cache, making an active connection appear unavailable. If the connection looks normal but the target page does not change, perform a hard refresh or sign out of the target service and open it again.

Once the target service is accessible, setup is complete. PvVPN does not limit the number of devices that can be online at the same time. Other devices can follow the same order: install a client, import the subscription provided by the same account panel, and connect separately. Verify the connection independently on each device rather than assuming the others are configured correctly based on the first device.

If the client shows no routes, return to the account overview and check whether the plan has taken effect, then run “Update subscription” in the client. If the list is still empty, delete the empty item you just imported, copy the complete subscription from the panel again, and re-import it. Do not treat the example address as a real subscription or copy only part of a link.

If routes appear but cannot connect, disconnect the current route and try another route in the same region. Before switching, wait until the client has fully returned to a disconnected state to avoid rapid clicks before the status refreshes. If other tools that alter the network connection are running on the device, exit them first and let the PvVPN client establish the connection alone.

If the client shows Connected but only one target service will not open, switch to a route that matches the service’s region and restart the target app or browser page. Services may assess the exit region, login environment, and session state differently, so “the route is connected” and “the target service’s current session has refreshed” are separate checks.

If the connection stops responding after some time, disconnect and reconnect the original route first; switch routes only if the problem remains. Do not repeatedly import the same subscription or reinstall the client. Most basic issues can be isolated in sequence by checking the plan status, updating the subscription, selecting another route, and refreshing the target session.
