Setup Guide

Import Your Subscription and Connect

Set up your account and subscription in the user panel, then import them into your client. The steps follow the usual setup process; go straight to the section for your device.

Create an account and secure your credentials

Open the “Free Trial” option below to go to the account creation page in the JinVPN user panel. Choose a username and password as prompted. No email address is required. You’ll use your username to sign in, so choose one that’s easy to recognize without revealing your identity. Use a password that you don’t use on other sites, and check your entries before submitting.

After creating your account, follow the on-screen instructions to open the panel. If you land on the sign-in page, use the username and password you just set. Once you see your account overview, make sure it’s the right account before choosing a plan. If you already have an account, sign in with it instead of creating another one.

Save your login credentials somewhere secure before leaving this page. Avoid saving passwords on shared devices, and sign out when you’re done. Creating an account and getting an active subscription are separate steps; a client can connect only after your plan is active and the subscription has been imported correctly. Next, choose your service plan in the plans section.

Free Trial

Choose a plan and confirm your order

Open the plans section in the user panel. First, distinguish monthly plans from data packages, then compare the allowances. Monthly plans are ¥9.9/month for 60GB, ¥18/month for 250GB, and ¥28/month for 500GB. Data resets monthly on your activation date, not at the start of a calendar month. Check your account for the applicable reset date when reviewing your remaining data.

If you prefer to manage usage by total data, consider a data package: ¥158/300GB, ¥358/1000GB, or ¥658/3000GB. Data packages remain valid until used and never expire. Compare the billing method with your usage habits rather than looking at the data allowance alone. Before configuring your account for the first time, review plan prices and terms, then return to the panel once you’ve chosen a plan.

Open your chosen plan in the panel and check the amount, data allowance, and billing method shown in the order. Then pay using one of the available options. Alipay, WeChat Pay, and USDT are supported. After paying, return to your order or account overview to confirm the status. Don’t assume the subscription is active just because you closed the payment page. If the order is still processing, check its details and refresh the status to avoid submitting the same order twice.

JinVPN offers a 60-day money-back guarantee. See the Terms of Service for applicable terms. If you upgrade mid-cycle, the price difference is converted into remaining days; an upgrade does not restart the full billing period. Continue once your account shows an active subscription.

Get and secure your subscription link

Open your account overview in the user panel and find your subscription details or import option. Check the subscription status, remaining data, and other details shown on the page. If there’s no active subscription, return to your order and confirm payment. Reinstalling the client won’t fix an account that isn’t active yet.

If the panel offers a direct import option for your client, install the client first, then return and click Import. Your browser may ask whether to open an external app. Check that it’s the client you just installed before continuing. If it doesn’t open automatically, or your device has no app associated with the link, copy the subscription link and import it manually in the client.

Don’t paste the link into a search bar, public chat, or online conversion tool. A subscription link is an account credential, and anyone who has it may be able to access your route configuration. To move your setup to another device, sign in to the panel on that device and get the link again rather than sending it through an unfamiliar service.

When importing, paste the complete link copied from the panel. Don’t edit the domain, parameters, or trailing characters. If the client reports a format error, copy the link again and check for extra spaces or line breaks. This guide doesn’t include a working subscription URL; always use the link from your current account panel.

Open your account overview

Import the client for your platform

Choose your device platform in the user panel’s downloads section and follow the instructions for the JinVPN client provided there. You can get the client for Windows, macOS, Android, and Linux after signing in, without purchasing a plan. You’ll still need an active subscription in your account to connect. iOS has different access requirements, explained below. Don’t look for an alternative installer on unfamiliar sites with similar names.

Get the client

Windows: Import your subscription

Select Windows in the downloads section and follow the panel instructions to get and install the JinVPN client. After launching it for the first time, find the configuration or subscription manager and choose the option to add a subscription from a link. Paste the complete link you copied earlier. If prompted for a name, use a label that’s easy to recognize. It’s only for local identification; don’t enter your username or password in the link field.

After saving, update or fetch the configuration and wait for the route list to appear. Then set that subscription as your active configuration. If you used the panel’s direct import option, check in the client that the subscription was saved and the routes have loaded. Leave system proxy and other connection modes until the verification step; don’t change all your network settings at once.

macOS: Allow the app to import your subscription

Select the macOS client in the panel and install it. If macOS asks you to confirm the app’s source or grant network permissions, check that the file came from the panel and follow the system instructions. Don’t disable macOS security features just to install the app. Once the client is open, look for an option to add a subscription or configuration. Choose Import from URL and paste the link.

You can also return to the browser and use the panel’s import option for your client, allowing the browser to open the app. Importing doesn’t connect you automatically: first check that the route list has loaded, then enable the imported configuration. If the list is empty, update the subscription and make sure your account still has an active allowance before checking local permissions.

Android: Add the link and allow the connection

Sign in to the panel, select Android in the downloads section, and follow the instructions to get and install the JinVPN client. Open the app and go to its configuration or subscription section. Choose the relevant option, such as Add subscription or Import from URL, paste the complete link, and save it. Return to the subscription list, update it, check that the route names appear, then enable the configuration.

The first time you connect, your device may show a VPN connection request. Make sure it comes from the client you just installed, then allow it and check the connection status in the app. If importing directly from the browser doesn’t open the app, paste the link manually instead. For now, don’t run other apps that manage network connections at the same time; that makes it harder to tell which configuration is handling your traffic.

iOS: Get and import the client through the panel

Get the iOS client using the App Store link in the user panel. Your account must have a purchased, unexpired plan to access the corresponding link. If the panel says your plan doesn’t meet the requirements, return to your account overview and check your subscription status before downloading. Use the client linked from the panel rather than relying on similar names in search results.

After installation, return to the panel and use the relevant import option, or add the link manually from the client’s subscription manager. Save the subscription, update the routes, and select the configuration before connecting. If iOS asks to add a VPN configuration, confirm the app’s source and follow the prompts to grant permission. Then return to the client and check that the connection has started rather than stopping at the system confirmation screen.

Linux and other configuration issues

JinVPN also supports Linux. Find the download link in the user panel’s downloads section. This guide covers the essential steps for common platforms; for configuration files, connection modes, subscription updates, and more detailed permission troubleshooting, see the complete user guide. Unlimited devices doesn’t mean local settings sync automatically between devices, so import and verify the subscription separately on each one.

Connect to a route and verify it’s working

Once the route list loads, choose a route suited to the region of the service you want to use, then connect using the client’s recommended default mode. If you’re new to the client, leave split-routing rules and other advanced settings unchanged; this makes issues easier to diagnose. A “Connected” status only confirms that the connection process reached that state. You’ll still need to check that your traffic works as expected.

Start by opening the IP lookup tool on this site to check your current exit information, then visit the website or app you actually want to use. With split routing, different destinations may use different paths, so a local exit shown on a lookup page doesn’t by itself mean the connection has failed. Check the client’s rules alongside the target app. If the lookup tool temporarily fails, don’t delete the subscription straight away; first check whether regular webpages load.

To test AI tools or streaming services, open each one and check that pages load, you can sign in, and the content you need is available. A working network path doesn’t guarantee that every service feature will be accessible; account region, content licensing, and the platform’s own rules may also affect access. A single successful test doesn’t guarantee ongoing availability, and an account notice from the destination site doesn’t necessarily indicate a route issue.

If you can’t access anything after connecting, check your local network, subscription status, remaining data, active configuration, and system permissions in that order. Then try another route. Change one setting at a time and retest the same destination so you can compare results. Subscription update failures and connection failures happen at different stages: check the link and account status for the former, and your selected route and network handling mode for the latter.

Once you’ve confirmed the connection works, day-to-day use mainly involves checking your allowance, updating the subscription when needed, and rechecking the connection if your setup changes. For help, open a support ticket in the user panel and include your device platform, the client’s message, and the steps to reproduce the issue. Hide your subscription link, password, and payment details in screenshots. For the complete troubleshooting sequence, see the user guide. You can also check whether your connection is working by reviewing your exit IP and DNS.
