STRATA SURVEY
Six Layers, One Descent
Core capabilities are laid out by virtual depth. Each layer states only facts: what problem it solves, how it's implemented, and how it differs from common practice.
-0200mSTRATUM 01
Peak-Hour Stability
The most common failure mode in cross-border access isn't a dropped connection — it's congestion between 8pm and 11pm, when a route that felt smooth all day suddenly stalls with rising packet loss. CKVPN's approach is route redundancy: within the 200+ routes, most regions have several route types available (IEPL leased lines, relay, and direct), so the client can switch to a less congested route during peak hours instead of waiting for a single route to recover. Leased-line routes run on dedicated transport paths, which are far less exposed to public-network peak-hour swings than ordinary direct connections.
-0500mSTRATUM 02
Direct AI Tool Access
Services like ChatGPT, Claude, Gemini, and Copilot apply far stricter network checks than an average website: a low-reputation IP, an inconsistent location, or unstable connections can trigger verification loops or outright blocks. CKVPN maintains a set of routes with cleaner exit environments specifically for AI use cases, with stable location signals so long connections and streamed responses hold up; this also works well for developers calling APIs from the command line or IDE plugins. Tool-specific notes are covered in full in the AI Access Guide.
-0800mSTRATUM 03
Streaming Unblocking
Being able to connect and being able to stream are two different things: platforms like Netflix and Disney+ check the type and origin of the exit IP, and IPs that look like they belong to a data center are often blocked from playback. CKVPN maintains unblocking routes in popular regions like Tokyo, Singapore, and Los Angeles that pass streaming checks, and the node page marks which platforms each route has been verified to support — so you can check the table before choosing a route instead of trial and error. 4K streaming needs more bandwidth, so IEPL leased-line routes are recommended for that.
-1100mSTRATUM 04
Unlimited Devices
Most services tier plans by the number of simultaneous devices, and a household quickly hits that cap once phones, laptops, tablets, and TVs are all counted — usually showing up as random disconnects that are hard to diagnose. CKVPN sets no device limit: one account can be used to activate the subscription on every device you own, with Windows, macOS, iOS, Android, and Linux clients all online at once without competing for a slot. Billing is based on data usage only, monthly plans reset on the activation date each month, and usage can be checked anytime in the user dashboard.
-1400mSTRATUM 05
Privacy & No-Logs Policy
Running the service requires only the bare minimum of data: an account identifier and a usage counter. CKVPN enforces a strict no-logs policy — no browsing content, destinations, or connection details are recorded — and signing up doesn't require an email address either; a username and password are enough to activate an account, so there's no extra personal data sitting in the system to begin with. All traffic is encrypted end to end, so session content stays invisible to other devices on the same public Wi-Fi network. Full terms are in the Privacy Policy.
-1800mSTRATUM 06
14-Day Refund Guarantee
The cost of trying out a subscription service should sit with the provider, not the user. Within 14 days of your first payment, if the speed, stability, or unblocking performance doesn't meet expectations, you can open a support ticket in the user dashboard for a full refund — no reason required. This promise matches the wording on the plans page and terms of service exactly, with no hidden conditions. Data add-ons are also available: pay once, use until it's gone, and it never expires — a good fit if your usage is irregular or you'd rather not be tied to a monthly cycle.
LIVE ROUTES
Server Status
A live sample from the 200+ available routes: region, route type, current latency and throughput, refreshed every few seconds.
A quick rule of thumb for choosing routes: for everyday browsing and AI tools, pick a nearby Asia-Pacific route — Tokyo and Singapore are usually the best default; to watch a specific region's streaming library, pick a route in that region marked as supporting the platform you need; for anything that demands reliability (video calls, API calls, peak-hour binge-watching), go with an IEPL leased-line route. The differences between the three route types, along with more detailed selection tips, are covered in full on the node page.
CLIENTS
Five Platforms, One Subscription
Clients and subscription links are all handled from the user dashboard: log in, go to the download section, pick your platform, install, then import the subscription with one tap. No installer is ever linked directly from marketing pages.
From signup to every device being ready usually takes under ten minutes. For step-by-step instructions and screenshots, see the Quick Start Guide.
PLANS
Three Monthly Tiers, Billed by Data
All three plans share the same routes, unlimited devices, and refund guarantee — the only difference is the monthly data allowance. Data resets on the activation date each month; upgrading mid-cycle prorates the price difference for the remaining days, with no double billing.

Who the ¥9.9 Plan Is For
Light users mostly browsing, chatting with AI, or looking things up. Text-based usage barely dents your data, so 60GB usually covers a full month of everyday use comfortably — it's also a solid way to try out route quality for a month before committing further.
Who the ¥18 Plan Is For
The core crowd: daily streaming plus multiple devices in regular use. 250GB comfortably supports several hours of HD streaming a day, and with unlimited devices, one account can cover an entire household within that allowance.
Who the ¥28 Plan Is For
Heavy users doing 4K streaming, syncing large files, or hitting APIs constantly from a dev environment. 500GB means you basically never have to think about usage — and if you go over in a given month, a data add-on can top you up anytime.
Data Add-Ons
Don't want a monthly subscription? Data add-ons are pay-once, use-until-gone, and never expire: ¥158/300GB · ¥358/1000GB · ¥658/3000GB. A good fit for irregular usage or long-term light use, and they can be combined with a monthly plan too.
POSITION
How CKVPN Differs
No Email Required to Sign Up
Most subscription services treat an email address as the first thing you hand over just to sign up. CKVPN's account system only needs a username and password — there's nothing else required on the signup form. If it's never collected, it can never be retained or leaked. This is really the same idea as the no-logs policy, just from the other end.
Billing Rules You Can Verify
The three monthly prices, the data reset date, how upgrades are prorated, and the fact that data add-ons never expire — it's all written out on the plans page and in the terms of service, with the same numbers everywhere. There's no "cheap first year, expensive renewal" pricing ladder. Whatever price you see is the price you renew at.
No Per-Device Limits
The industry norm is to tier pricing by the number of simultaneous devices; CKVPN bills by data usage only. Not capping devices makes troubleshooting simpler too — when a connection drops, you don't have to wonder whether another device used up the device slot, which narrows the problem down to the route and network right away.
No Conditions on the Refund
Full refund within 14 days of your first payment, just by opening a ticket — no explanation needed, no usage threshold to stay under. Putting that cost on the provider's side is the most direct way to stand behind route quality.
