Televisions
MeduzaVPN on a television
A television connects the same way a phone does, and the sign-in is approved from your phone with a QR code — nothing is typed on the remote.
Android TV and Fire TV
The same file as the phone. The app lays itself out for a television on its own: its own launcher entry, large screens, remote control — no mouse and no touchscreen.
Download the APKInstalls from the store or from the file. Sign in with the QR code on the television screen: scan it with your phone, approve, and nothing has to be typed on the remote.
Apple TVComing soon
A separate native tvOS application is on the way. MeduzaVPN ULTRA works on it — the core is already built for tvOS and verified.
Requires tvOS 17 or newer: on anything earlier Apple does not let third-party apps open a tunnel at all.
Routers
MeduzaVPN on a router
A router covers the whole house at once: everything on the network goes through it — set-top boxes, consoles, televisions, smart appliances. Set it up once and no device needs an app of its own.
- Install the package on the router. It brings the tunnel up by itself, with no computer nearby.
- Open the router's web interface, show your phone the QR code and approve the sign-in. Nothing is typed on the router.
- Pick a location. From there the router holds the connection and brings it back after a dropout or a reboot.
- Each device on the network can be told separately: through the VPN or straight out. Television through the tunnel, work laptop around it.
OpenWrt
The full daemon: every protocol, MeduzaVPN ULTRA included. Plus a page in the router's web interface to set it all from.
Built for OpenWrt 24.10. Three targets, the ones with enough flash: a router with 8–16 MB cannot fit the daemon, and there plain WireGuard remains the option.
Other Linux
The same daemon as plain files, for a router on an unusual target, a NAS or a single-board computer. No package manager needed.
ULTRA runs on a router's 32-bit processors too — verified on mips, mipsle, arm and arm64.
MikroTik
RouterOS accepts no third-party packages — only MikroTik signs them. So for MikroTik we hand over a ready RouterOS 7 script instead: interface, keys, routes, rules and DNS already filled in for your service.
The script and the instructions are in your account, on the service page.
A router counts as an ordinary device. It is not billed separately and takes up no limit.
Official MeduzaVPN site
MeduzaVPN is the official personal VPN service running on your own server. If you were looking for MeduzaVPN or Meduza VPN, you are on the service's official site. Here you can choose a plan and a VPN location, download the app for Windows, macOS, Android, iOS and Linux, or set up a connection with configuration files for other devices.
The service is operated by IPFB LLC. You can read more about the project, legal information and official channels on the page with official information about MeduzaVPN.
REVERSE VPN · JUST LIKE HOME
You’re abroad. Your internet feels like home.
Connect to a VPN server in your home country to reach familiar websites and services while travelling. They see an IP from Russia, China, Germany or another available location you choose.
You are abroad
Encrypted VPN connection
Your home country IPFamiliar websites and services
Which country’s IP do you need?
- RussiaA Russian IP for local websites and online accounts while you are abroad.
- ChinaA Chinese IP for services that require a connection from mainland China.
- GermanyA German IP for regional websites, media libraries and online services.
- Other countriesFind the country your services require among the available VPN locations.
Access depends on server availability in your chosen country and each service’s rules.
SPLIT TUNNELING · ONE CONNECTION, YOUR OWN ROUTES
Your traffic. Your routes.
Connect to a single VPN location and let rules decide the rest. Russian sites can leave from your Frankfurt VPN, European ones from New York, and your work network can skip the VPN entirely — all at once, from one connection.
- Entry VPNThe one location you connect through
- Traffic routesEach rule sends its traffic to a location of your choice
- OthersEverything no rule matches
OUR OWN PROTOCOL · BUILT IN-HOUSE
We built our own protocol, because the usual ones stopped being enough.
Most services resell the same handful of public protocols. When a network learns to recognise those, everyone using them goes dark at once. MeduzaVPN is our own connection mode, developed in-house precisely so that our customers are not part of that crowd.
- Ours, not borrowedIt is developed and maintained by us, so when a network changes how it filters, we can change how the protocol behaves — instead of waiting for someone else's project to react.
- Unremarkable by designThe point is not stronger encryption; it is that the traffic does not announce itself as a VPN. Filtering equipment looks for recognisable patterns, and this mode is built so there is little to recognise.
- Individual to your serverIts parameters are generated separately for every server and delivered to your apps automatically. Two customers on two servers do not look alike, so blocking one tells a network nothing about the other.
IPV6 READY · AND UNDER YOUR CONTROL
IPv6 ready. On or off, whenever you want.
Your VPN carries IPv6 next to IPv4 wherever the location supports it, so modern IPv6-only services stay reachable through the tunnel. And it is a switch, not a fixed setting: turn IPv6 on or off for each VPN separately, from the app or from your account.
- Dual-stack where the location has itYour VPN gets its own IPv6 address alongside the IPv4 one, and the app shows both. Not every location offers IPv6 yet — where it does not, the app tells you instead of failing quietly.
- One switch per VPNIn the app it is VPN settings → IP version; on the website it is IPv4 / IPv6 on the VPN's card. Each VPN is set independently, and at least one of the two always stays on — IPv4 is required for the connection to work.
- Applied on the server in about half a minuteSwitching rebuilds the VPN's configuration on the server. The switch flips only once the server confirms the change, so what you see is the real state, not just a preference, and the app reconnects the tunnel for you.
IPv6 availability depends on the location of each VPN. If a VPN has no IPv6 yet, its switch says so rather than pretending to work.
See VPN locationsYour privacy is a priority
You fully control your data. The application does not collect or transmit any statistics, logs, or other information about users and their data.
Does not keep logs
A separate container is launched for each VPN protocol. They can be deleted with one click. They do not write logs inside themselves, and do nothing other than their direct task.
Uses smart encryption
When connecting, the client generates a new key and a new security certificate and sends it to the server

Partner programme
Invite people, keep up to 20% of everything they pay
Send your link. Whoever signs up through it stays yours for good, and every payment they make — the first one and all the renewals after it — earns you a share. Withdraw it, or spend it on your own VPN.
- A link and a QR codeYour account has both, under Referral programme. Send the link or show the code.
- They sign upThey stay attached to you for good: you earn on their first purchase and on every renewal after it.
- Money on your balanceRewards appear at once and unlock after 14 days: withdraw them, or pay for your own VPN with them.
Three tiers
- 5%Tier 1From your very first invitee. This is where everyone starts.
- 10%Tier 2Once 10 of the people you invited have paid at least once.
- 20%Tier 3Once 100 of the people you invited have paid at least once.
What that is in money
Worked out from our own prices and the tiers above. Pick the plan your invitees are on and see what each number of people brings in per month and per year.
| Paying invitees | Your share | Per month | Per year |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 | 5% | $0.30 | $3.59 |
| 10 | 10% | $5.99 | $71.88 |
| 50 | 10% | $29.95 | $359.40 |
| 100 | 20% | $119.80 | $1437.60 |
This is arithmetic, not a promise: the table assumes every invitee pays every month on the chosen plan. In practice some leave, some take a longer plan at a discount, some buy several VPNs. Read the figures as the ceiling for that number of invitees.

Irene L.
«Took it on trial after a bad experience with another service. Everything works the way it should: stable connection, decent speed even in the evening, and payment went through without any hassle. I used to be skeptical about services like this, but now I recommend it to friends without hesitation. I'll be staying for the long run.»
Daniel W.
«Fair price, no issues with speed, plenty of servers for any task. One minor wish — I'd love more detailed connection and traffic stats in the app. It would also be nice to get push notifications when the connection drops. Doesn't affect the core functionality, overall happy and not planning to switch.»
Olivia S.
«Got it for my mom — she's always worried about scammers. The service has its own app, so there was nothing to configure manually: installed it, signed in, and it just works.»
Artem K.
«Got connected in a couple of minutes, no complex setup. Stable both at home and while traveling, speed is consistently high across every device.»

Frequently asked questions
How does MeduzaVPN work?
MeduzaVPN deploys a personal VPN for you on a dedicated VPS in your selected location. Your traffic goes through your own server, not a shared IP used by many users.
How do I use MeduzaVPN?
Our MeduzaVPN apps are available for Windows, Android, iOS, macOS and Linux: purchase a service, choose a location, sign in, and connect. Get the Windows and Linux apps from meduzavpn.com, Android on Google Play and iOS/macOS on the App Store. On Linux there is both a desktop app and a command-line client, as .deb and .rpm packages or through our apt/dnf repository.
Is there a trial period?
Yes, 7 days without payment for new customers. In the App Store and Google Play apps it is offered on the single-VPN plan. On meduzavpn.com it comes with an auto-renewing subscription of any term and any number of VPNs: you link a card or payment method now, and the first charge is 7 days later. One trial per account; every payment is also covered by the 15-day refund policy.
I can't start the free trial in the app — what should I do?
If the App Store or Google Play won't link your card, the purchase hangs or fails and the trial never started, take the same 7 days without payment on the website — the VPN will appear in the app too:
- Open meduzavpn.com in a browser on your phone or computer. If the site does not open, use the mirror meduzacore.com.
- Sign in with the same account you use in the app: the same e-mail, Sign in with Apple or Google. That way the VPN shows up in the app right away. No account yet? Sign up.
- Start an order — the “Get started” button on any plan — and choose a location and a term.
- Keep “Auto-renewal” selected and leave the “7 days free” box ticked — it is on by default.
- Choose how to pay: international card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, Samsung Pay or PayPal, or a Russian card, YooMoney, SberPay or SBP. TBank, Mir Pay, UnionPay and crypto do not support the trial.
- Press “Start free trial” and confirm the card or payment method on the payment provider's page. Nothing is charged today; the first charge is in 7 days.
- Connect: the VPN appears in your account and in the app. If you don't see it, refresh the list or sign in to the app again.
- Changed your mind? Cancel the trial before the first charge date in your account under “Subscriptions” — nothing will be charged.
The trial is one per account. It is not offered if the account has already paid or had a trial in the App Store or Google Play, and it does not combine with a promo code. A failed attempt in the app where the store set nothing up does not use up the trial. If the “7 days free” box is missing, you can pay right away — the 15-day refund applies. Still stuck? Write to support or ask Mia.
How secure is MeduzaVPN?
We use modern VPN protocols and encryption for connections. On the VPN server side, we do not keep logs of your activity.
How many devices can I connect?
One service equals one VPS in one location. On the server side, we do not limit how many of your devices connect, but the server's dedicated bandwidth is shared across all devices connected at the same time.
Is MeduzaVPN legal to use?
VPN usage is legal in most countries, but rules vary by jurisdiction. Please check local laws and restrictions before using the service.
What is the difference between protocols?
Protocols differ in encryption approach, stability across networks and client compatibility. The apps default to MeduzaVPN ULTRA, our newest mode for difficult networks, with the MeduzaVPN protocol as the dependable fallback. We also support WireGuard, VLESS, VLESS 2.0, Xray, V2Ray, Outline, Shadowsocks, Hysteria, SoftEther, OpenVPN, IKEv2/IPsec and SOCKS5 — every protocol is on your server at once, so you can switch freely until one suits your network.
How can I change my VPN location?
You can change the location in your account dashboard in service management on the active services page. It is also available in our apps in the active service settings.
What does changing location give you?
When you switch location, your public IP address changes. This makes it harder to link your activity to your real location and helps you browse with more privacy.
Is this the official MeduzaVPN site?
Yes. The official site of the MeduzaVPN service is meduzavpn.com. The service is operated by IPFB LLC.
Are MeduzaVPN and Meduza VPN the same thing?
Yes, users may search for the service in different ways. The official name of the service is MeduzaVPN.
Where can I download MeduzaVPN?
The official apps are available on Google Play and the App Store, and the Windows and Linux apps from meduzavpn.com. For Linux there are .deb and .rpm packages, a .tar.gz archive and an apt/dnf repository; configuration files from your account also remain available for any client you prefer.
Who is behind MeduzaVPN?
MeduzaVPN is operated by IPFB LLC. You can learn more on the company page.
What is reverse VPN and how does “Just like home” work?
Reverse VPN means connecting from abroad to a VPN server in your home country. For example, while in Cyprus you connect to a server in Russia: websites see that server’s Russian public IP for traffic routed through the VPN. This can help access services restricted by IP country. It does not need a separate protocol or special mode; choose the appropriate server country.
How can I get a Russian IP address abroad?
Choose an available VPN server in Russia and connect through MeduzaVPN. Websites accessed through the VPN will see the Russian server’s IP. This may help you reach Russian websites, online accounts and regional services from abroad. Check location availability before ordering; individual services may also verify your account or block data centre IPs.
Can I get a Chinese IP outside China?
A mainland Chinese IP requires an available server in mainland China. A server in Hong Kong or a neighbouring country is not equivalent to a mainland connection. Check the required location before ordering. Chinese apps may also require a specific account region, local phone number or subscription. A VPN changes the public IP of traffic routed through it, not these details.
How can I use German services outside Germany?
Connect to an available VPN server in Germany so websites see a German IP for your VPN traffic. The same principle applies elsewhere: choose a server in the service’s country. Access to media libraries and regional platforms also depends on their rules, your subscription and whether they accept VPN connections.
Does reverse VPN unlock every service in a country?
It can help where access is determined by the country of your public IP, but it cannot guarantee access to every service. Websites may check account region, GPS, SIM card or payment details, or block server IPs. A VPN does not change these requirements or replace a subscription or sign-in. Check your particular services after connecting.
Will I get my actual home IP or a VPN server IP?
You get the public IP of your personal VPN server in the selected country. This is not your home router’s address or a residential ISP address. “Just like home” means connecting with an IP from your home country. A data centre IP may not work for services that only accept residential connections.
