Quick Start Guide for 23VPN

ACCOUNT.CREATE

Create an account and save your credentials

Start by opening the 23VPN account creation page. You only need to set a username and password; no email address is required. Use the username to sign in to the user panel later and the password to protect your plan, orders, and subscription details. Submit the form to enter the user panel. If your browser offers to save the password, use a trusted password manager or store it somewhere only you can access.

The key is not to rush through the form, but to make sure you can find your credentials again. You can retrieve the subscription link from the user panel, provided you can sign in normally. Do not reuse a public forum nickname as your username, and never reuse the password on other sites. After creating the account, confirm that the page shows your own account overview before choosing a plan. This helps avoid switching between pages while signed out.

23VPN does not require an email address, so login details are not sent by email. Save your username and password after creating the account. If you later switch browsers or clear local data, you can sign in again with the same credentials. When ready, open the plan section from the account overview and continue.

PLAN.SELECT

Choose a Plan and Place Your Order

After opening the plan panel, first decide how you will use the service. A monthly subscription suits ongoing use, with data resetting each month on the activation date. A data package deducts usage as consumed, remains available until used, and never expires. Monthly subscriptions offer 60GB, 250GB, and 500GB tiers at ¥9.9, ¥18, and ¥28. Data packages offer 300GB, 1000GB, and 3000GB at ¥158, ¥358, and ¥658. Do not choose by total data alone; consider how often you stream, transfer files, attend meetings, and use AI Tools.

Once you have chosen an option, select Start Using on the relevant plan, check the plan type, data allowance, and price, then proceed to payment. 23VPN supports Alipay, WeChat Pay, and USDT. After payment, return to the user panel; the plan status appears in the account overview. If the page remains on the payment result screen, reopen the user panel instead of creating the same order again.

When upgrading a monthly subscription mid-cycle, the price difference is converted into remaining days; data packages do not reset monthly. The two options address different needs, so there is no need to select both. For your first setup, start with the option that matches your expected usage; actual consumption appears in the user panel. All plans support unlimited devices and include 30-day no-questions-asked refunds. Once the plan is confirmed, retrieve the subscription link.

SUBSCRIPTION.READ

Get the Subscription Link from the User Panel

After the plan takes effect, open the account overview in the user panel. You will see the current plan, data status, and subscription entry. Find and click the button to copy the subscription link; your browser will place it on the clipboard. Some clients can also launch the app directly through the import option provided by the user panel. If the device does not respond correctly, copy the link and import it manually.

A subscription link is not an ordinary webpage address. It contains account credentials that the client needs to read route configuration, so keep it only on your personal devices. Do not post it in public chats, screenshots, tutorial comments, or shared documents. To use it on another device, sign in to the user panel there and copy it again rather than forwarding it through a public channel. 23VPN supports unlimited devices, but the account holder should still manage access to the subscription.

Tutorials can include only an obviously fake address, such as the line below. It illustrates the link format; it cannot connect to 23VPN and should not be pasted into a client:

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

The real link appears only in the user panel after sign-in. This page does not provide a static subscription address or a direct installer link. After copying it, keep the user panel open and choose the client for your current device to complete the import.

CLIENT.IMPORT

Import the Subscription into Clients for Every Platform

The client reads the subscription, lists available routes, and passes your selected route to the system network interface. First get the client for your device from the download area of the user panel, then return to the subscription entry and copy the link. Do not look for similarly named installers on unknown pages, and do not mix another service's subscription into this account's configuration. After installation, follow the section for your platform below.

TUNNEL.CONNECT

Establish a Connection and Choose a Route

After the subscription update finishes, return to the client's main screen. Choose the target region from the route list, then turn on the connection. For content in Japan, choose a Japan route; for services in the United States, choose a US route. For general cross-border access, start with a region closer to your current location. 23VPN covers 110+ countries and 230+ routes. You do not need to test them one by one; first establish a stable connection that completes your current task.

Common client operating modes include a system proxy and VPN mode, though names vary by platform. For your first setup, keep the client's recommended default and do not run multiple network tools with the same function at once. When several clients compete for the system network interface, the usual result is not simply slower speed: the connection may appear normal while app traffic does not follow the selected route as expected.

Watch the client status after enabling the connection. Normally, the connection switch changes to enabled and the system status area shows a corresponding VPN or network indicator. Do not close the client or switch routes repeatedly right away. Go straight to verification and check whether the current exit has changed. If the target service still shows the original region, use the verification result to decide whether to try another route.

ROUTE.VERIFY

Verify That the Connection Works

After establishing the connection, open 23VPN's IP check page to view your current exit IP and region. The standard is simple: the result should match the selected route's region, or at least no longer show the original exit from before connecting. Then open the website or app you need. This separates “the client says connected” from “traffic is actually using the new route,” making troubleshooting clearer.

If the IP has not changed, return to the client and confirm that the connection switch is still enabled and a specific route is selected. Then close other apps that modify the system proxy or VPN configuration and reconnect. If the browser has retained an old session, close the relevant pages and reopen them. Do not delete the account or place another order first; this issue usually involves local operating mode, system permissions, or route selection rather than the plan status.

If the IP has changed but the target service still reports a region mismatch, check that the account region, content region, and selected route match, then try another route in the same region. Streaming platforms, AI Tools, and ordinary websites use different methods to determine location, which are beyond this page. For help with regional restrictions, account regions, native IPs, residential IPs, or common errors, see the complete access guide.

Once verification succeeds, the initial setup is complete. For future use, start the client, update the subscription, choose a route, and connect. Subscription contents may change during route maintenance, so update them after a long period of inactivity before judging whether a route is available. Use the user panel to view your plan, data, and subscription entry; use the client to import configuration and establish the connection. Check them in that order when troubleshooting.
