VPNPZ Setup Guide

Get your subscription, install a client, then check your connection and routing. This guide follows the setup process; if you already have an account or subscription, continue from the relevant step.

Create an account and save your login details

Select “Start Free” below to open the VPNPZ user dashboard. Create an account with a username and password; no email address is required. Choose a username you can recognize and a unique password for this service. Before submitting, check your keyboard input settings so you don’t accidentally include spaces or characters you didn’t intend. The button takes you to the account flow; check the dashboard for available plans and service status.

Once complete, make sure you’re in the user dashboard rather than still on the account entry page. If you already have an account, sign in with your existing details; there’s no need to create another account for a new device. VPNPZ supports unlimited devices, and you can manage your subscription across computers and mobile devices with the same account. Client configuration must be imported separately on each device.

Save your login details in a password manager and make sure you can find the entry later. Don’t share your username, password, or subscription link in public forums. Signing in only gets you into the dashboard; it doesn’t connect your client. Next, check the available plans, then get your subscription from Account Overview.

Choose a plan and confirm your order

Open the plans section in the dashboard and decide whether you need regular access or only occasional use. Monthly plans suit everyday browsing, AI tools, and regular video streaming. Data packages suit less frequent use when you’d rather draw down a set data allowance over time. Choose based on your actual usage instead of paying for a larger plan you may not need.

Monthly plans include ¥9.9/month for 60GB, ¥18/month for 250GB, and ¥28/month for 500GB. Data allowances reset monthly on the activation date. Data packages include ¥158 for 300GB, ¥358 for 1000GB, and ¥658 for 3000GB; they expire only when the data runs out. There’s no device limit, but plan data allowances still apply. Device count and remaining data are separate things.

Before paying, check the order price, data allowance, and billing terms, then follow the dashboard instructions to pay with Alipay, WeChat Pay, or USDT. Return to the dashboard to check the order result and plan status; don’t assume your plan is active just because you closed the payment page. If the status hasn’t updated, check the original order before taking further action to avoid placing a duplicate order.

VPNPZ offers a 7-day no-questions-asked refund. See the Terms of Service for details. If you upgrade mid-cycle, the price difference is converted into remaining days, so check the result shown in your dashboard before upgrading. Once your plan status is confirmed, get your subscription from Account Overview; there’s no need to look elsewhere for route configuration.

Get your subscription and keep it on your devices

Open Account Overview in the user dashboard and check your current plan and available data, then find the subscription section. The subscription link lets your client retrieve route configuration; it isn’t a regular webpage to keep opening in a browser. Copy the link, then provide it to the client for your platform.

If Account Overview offers one-click import, follow the prompt to open the installed client. If you haven’t installed a client yet, get it from the dashboard download area first, then return to import your subscription. If your system can’t find an app to handle the import, don’t keep clicking. Leave the dashboard open, install the client, and try again, or copy the link and import it manually.

When copying the link manually, make sure you copy the entire URL—not just the visible part—and don’t include the page title or instructions. The client needs the link itself. If you see extra spaces or line breaks after pasting, remove them before importing. Don’t try to fix the link by editing its parameters.

Think of your subscription as an envelope containing the keys to your routes: keep it on devices and in clients you trust. Don’t forward it or include it in public screenshots. If you need help, describe the error and where it occurred, but hide the subscription details. For more on subscription updates, resets, and configuration management, see the Beginner-to-Advanced Guide. For now, finish importing your subscription.

Import your subscription and select its configuration

Download clients from the user dashboard. Don’t pick an installer with a similar name based only on search results. Sign in to access clients for Windows, macOS, Android, and Linux. The iOS download option depends on your account’s plan status. You need to sign in to get a subscription, and your plan status determines whether you can use the routes.

On every platform, follow the same sequence: install, import, select a configuration. Use the client and import method provided in the dashboard whenever possible. Paste the link manually only if the client explicitly supports URL imports. For now, turn off any other proxy tools to make it easier to identify which settings are active.

Windows: Import from subscriptions or configuration management

Choose the Windows client in the dashboard download area, install it as prompted, and launch it. Look for “Subscriptions,” “Configuration Management,” or a similarly named option. If the dashboard offers one-click import, start it from Account Overview and allow your browser to open the client. If it doesn’t open automatically, use the client’s import-from-link option and paste the subscription you copied.

Wait for the configuration to load, then confirm that routes or policy groups are visible and select the imported configuration. If you name the subscription, use a label that’s easy to recognize; don’t use the link itself as the name. First make sure the configuration loads. You’ll enable the system proxy in the final connection step—just having the client open doesn’t mean browser traffic is going through it.

macOS: Import your subscription and check permission prompts

Install and open the macOS client from the dashboard download area. On the subscription or configuration page, choose the option to add from a link, or use the corresponding import option in the dashboard. If macOS asks to open the client, confirm that it’s the correct app before proceeding. After importing, make sure the selected subscription is the one you just added.

The client may request system permission when you connect. Follow the prompts shown by the app and operating system. When authorization is complete, return to the client and check its connection status; granting permission alone doesn’t mean the connection is active. If your browser still isn’t working as expected, check that the configuration is enabled and the system proxy is on before changing routes.

Android: Import your configuration, then allow the connection

Get the Android client from the dashboard and install it as prompted. Open the client and add the link under subscriptions or configuration management. If you use one-click import, check that the operating system is handing it off to the right app. Before pasting, make sure the clipboard still contains your subscription link, not something you copied afterward.

Once the configuration loads, select the relevant subscription and route. The first time you connect, Android may ask to set up a VPN connection. Confirm the app’s source and follow the prompt to allow it. Return to the client to check the connection status, then open a site to test it. If another VPN connection is already active on your device, disconnect it first to avoid competing for the same connection.

iOS: Get the available download option for your account

Sign in to the dashboard and open the download area to find the iOS option. Only accounts with an active, unexpired plan can access the actual App Store link. For other account statuses, follow the dashboard instructions about your plan; don’t use an app from an unverified source instead. After installation, return to Account Overview and use its import option, or choose Add from URL in a client that supports subscriptions.

During import, make sure the configuration is saved and selected. After connecting, follow the system prompts to add a VPN configuration or grant permission, then return to the app and check its status. If the link only opens in a browser and doesn’t reach the client, the import isn’t complete. Find the subscription option in the client; a page displayed in your browser doesn’t mean you’re connected.

Linux users can also get the relevant client from the dashboard download area and follow the import instructions there. For router configuration, proxy modes, and rule structures, see the Beginner-to-Advanced Guide. For your first setup, complete the connection and checks on your current device first; it’s easier to troubleshoot that way.

Connect and verify split tunneling

Return to the client’s home screen and confirm that the active configuration is your VPNPZ subscription. Choose rule mode or an equivalent split-tunneling mode, select a route in your preferred region, then enable the system proxy or VPN connection the client requires. Settings vary by operating system. Check that the configuration is selected, the connection is active, and any required permissions are granted—not just that the app is running.

Open an international site or AI tool you actually use, then test a site you commonly visit in mainland China. Split tunneling should route international traffic through the selected region while mainland Chinese sites connect directly; there’s no need to send all traffic through the same exit to test it. VPNPZ international routes cover 100+ countries / 190+ routes. Check your dashboard and subscription for the options currently available.

If a service requires a specific region, find its policy group in the client and select a suitable region for that group. Selecting a route for the main connection doesn’t necessarily change every policy group. Streaming availability and access to AI tools may also depend on your platform account, service region, and the platform’s own rules. A working connection is only the first check; it doesn’t guarantee access to every service or piece of content.

If a site won’t open, first check whether the client loaded your subscription successfully. Then check your plan status, remaining data, and connection toggle. If a configuration update fails, make sure the device itself is online before trying again. If only one service is affected, check its policy group and route first. Change one setting at a time, then reload the site to see whether it helped.

Once everything works, keep the configuration and check your plan and data status in the dashboard from time to time. To set up another device, repeat the steps to get a client, import your subscription, and verify the connection; there’s no need to create another account. VPNPZ’s privacy claim is “anonymous, no logs.” Keep your subscription and login details secure.
