Create access credentials
Create an account with a username and password
First, open the account creation page in the VPNFF user panel. Set a username and password; no email address is required. Your username will be used to sign in and identify the current subscription later, so choose something memorable but not identical to a commonly used public nickname. Store the password separately and avoid reusing it across services.
If the page takes you directly to the user panel after submission, the account has been created successfully. If you return to the sign-in page, use the username and password you just set. After signing in, you will see sections for account overview, client downloads, and plan purchases. The account does not have an active subscription yet, so continue to the Plans page to place an order.
If the username is already taken, choose another available name and submit again. If the password does not meet the requirements, follow the prompt beside the field and resubmit. There is no need to download a client or manually add a connection in system network settings first; completing the account and plan steps beforehand is smoother.
Confirm data allowance and term
Choose a Plan and Place an Order
In the Plans section of the user panel, distinguish between monthly subscriptions and data packages. Monthly subscriptions include ¥9.9/month with 60GB, ¥18/month with 250GB, and ¥28/month with 500GB; data resets monthly on the activation date. Data packages include ¥158/300GB, ¥358/1000GB, and ¥658/3000GB; they remain available until used and never expire. For regular short-term use with a fairly consistent monthly allowance, choose a monthly option. For longer gaps between use and consumption-based usage, review the data packages.
Open the plan you want to use to view the price, data allowance, and payment method on the order confirmation page. Make sure the selection matches your expectations, then pay with Alipay, WeChat Pay, or USDT. All plans support unlimited device count, but the data allowance is shared by connected devices on the same account, so you do not need to purchase a separate plan for each device.
Do not create another order after payment is complete. Return to Account Overview and wait for the order status to become available. If the payment result does not appear immediately, refresh the user panel or sign in again. If it still has not updated, submit the order details through a panel ticket for support to review. All plans include a 7-day no-questions-asked refund; see the Plans page and Terms of Use for the applicable scope and request process.
Get it from Account Overview
Copy the subscription link for your account
Once the plan is active, open Account Overview in the user panel. The subscription section shows your current data status and client import options. The subscription link is the credential clients use to retrieve routes and configuration. Copy it from the signed-in panel rather than from chat history, search results, or other pages.
If the panel provides a one-click import button for your platform, click it and follow the system prompt to open the client. For manual import, choose the option to copy the subscription link. A real link usually contains account-specific identifying information and should not be shared publicly. If you need to recognize the address format, use only the clearly fictitious value below; it is not a usable subscription:
https://example.com/sub?token=YOUR_TOKENDo not modify the link or remove the fields after the question mark. Next, open the client on your current device and paste the complete address into the subscription import field. If you change plans later or the panel reports an updated configuration, you usually only need to select “Update subscription” in the client; there is no need to create another account.
Follow the steps for your device
Import the subscription into your client
VPNFF supports Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and Linux. In the user panel’s client download section, select your operating system and obtain the corresponding client through the provided option. This site’s marketing pages do not provide static installer URLs; clients and subscriptions are accessed from your account. After installation, import the subscription you copied earlier using the platform-specific instructions below.
Import into the Windows Client
Open the client download section in the user panel, select Windows, and get the corresponding VPNFF client. After installation, launch it and find “Subscription,” “Configuration,” or “Import from link” in the main interface or sidebar. Paste the complete subscription address, enter a recognizable name for it, and confirm the addition.
After adding it, update the subscription once. The client should display available regions or routes. Choose a route that is reasonably close to your current network and suits your purpose, then return to the connection page and connect. If Windows asks for network permission, allow the client to establish the required connection. Without system permission, the client may appear to start while traffic does not enter the route.
Import into the macOS Client
Select the macOS client option in the user panel and complete the installation. On first launch, the system may ask you to confirm the app source or add a network configuration; follow the system dialog. In the client, open subscription or configuration management, choose the option to add by URL, paste the complete subscription address copied from the panel, and save it.
After the route list loads, select a route and connect. If macOS asks again to add a network configuration, allow it; this is a normal system step required for the client to manage the traffic path. Once connected, the menu bar or client home screen will usually show the current status. Do not change proxy modes yet; first follow the verification steps below to confirm the basic connection.
Import into the Android Client
Get and install the corresponding client from the Android section of the user panel. Open it, go to configuration or subscriptions, tap Add, and choose an option such as “Import from URL.” Paste the subscription link, save a name, and tap Update so the client retrieves the available routes. If a format error appears after pasting, check whether extra spaces were copied at the beginning or end of the address.
Select a route and tap Connect. Android will show a system connection permission dialog; confirm it and a connection indicator will appear in the status bar. Some systems restrict background operation. If the connection is easily interrupted after the screen locks, allow the client to run normally in the background through system app management. The exact location varies by device; if you cannot find it, see the Connection and Troubleshooting FAQ.
Import into the iOS Client
Open the iOS download section in the user panel and use the method provided to access a compatible client. After installation, return to the panel to copy the subscription or use the panel’s import option to open the client. In the client’s configuration or subscription page, choose Add remote configuration, paste the subscription address, and update it.
When connecting for the first time, iOS will ask whether to allow a network configuration to be added. Confirm, complete authorization with device verification, then return to the client to choose a route and connect. Once the system status area shows a connection indicator, continue with exit verification. If the import option does not open the client, copy and paste the link manually; the subscription content remains unchanged.
Confirm the traffic path
Connect to a route and check that it works
After the subscription update finishes, choose a region suited to your current purpose from the route list and click Connect. First check that the client status changes to connected, then wait for the system network status to stabilize. Do not judge the result only by the button color: the client connecting and actual traffic entering the route are two separate things to verify.
Open this site’s My IP page and note the exit information shown. Disconnect and refresh once, then reconnect and refresh the page again. If the exit information changes with the connection state, browser traffic is entering the selected route. Next, open the website or app you actually need and check that sign-in, content loading, and file requests work normally.
If the client says it is connected but the exit information has not changed, first confirm that the newly imported configuration is active rather than an old one. Then disconnect and reconnect, or test another route. If the browser uses separate network settings, it may not follow the system connection; cross-check with another browser. For more complete exit IP, DNS, and per-app verification methods, read How to Check Whether Your VPN Is Really Working.
- Client status: The current route is connected, with no repeated reconnection notices.
- Exit change: The exit information is visibly different before and after connecting.
- Target available: The website or app you need can complete an actual request.
- Subscription updates: The client can refresh the route list and configuration normally.
Complete the basic configuration
From here, just update the subscription and switch routes as needed
After verification, daily use usually involves connecting, disconnecting, updating the subscription, and switching routes. Once the client has saved the subscription, you do not need to paste the link again each time. If the route list differs from the panel, run a subscription update manually. Multiple devices can import the same account, but they share its data allowance, which you can review in Account Overview.
When speeds fluctuate, first try another route in the same region, then check whether your local network is stable. If a website opens in the browser but an app does not work, check whether the app uses separate network settings instead of repeatedly reinstalling the client. For subscription update failures, repeated disconnections, or unusual payment status, submit a ticket in the user panel and include your platform, current step, and the message shown on the page.
This page covers the complete core flow for first-time use. Protocol selection, route-type differences, subscription maintenance, renewal handling, and advanced network modes are beyond the scope of a quick guide. Continue with the VPNFF Complete User Manual, or open the FAQ for quick answers to common questions.
Your account, subscription, client, and exit verification now form one complete workflow
When you switch devices, get the client for the new platform from the user panel and import the current subscription from the same account.
