Brand the app; the tunnel stays the same.

White-Label VPN and First Run Permissions

First Run Permissions can sit on a branded KloxVPN client. It does not replace WireGuard, OpenVPN, OpenConnect, Shadowsocks, the five-device limit, or the 7-day first-purchase refund.

White-Label VPN and First Run Permissions
Brand the app; the tunnel stays the same.

White-label VPN partners often ask how First Run Permissions fits next to a branded Klox client. Short answer: branding, billing, and support are yours; the tunnel is still WireGuard, OpenVPN, OpenConnect, and Shadowsocks on five devices.

First Run Permissions may appear in your stack — website, comments, installers, or admin tools. None of that replaces the VPN protocol or adds a secret "First Run Permissions mode" inside the tunnel.

We keep commercial facts upfront: consumer pricing reference is $2.83/month on the yearly plan with 7-day money-back on your first purchase; partner economics live on /white-label and /reseller.

This page is for founders, agencies, and IT shops packaging Klox under their own name. It is not a consumer setup guide — end users still download your app build and press Connect.

What First Run Permissions is in your stack

Reseller and white-label paths differ; pick one story on your homepage.

Keep marketing, engineering, and support in one thread when `First Run Permissions` changes. Silent renames cause refund spikes.

Store reviewers compare screenshots to real behavior. Mislabelled `First Run Permissions` strings are an easy rejection reason.

Partners grep builds, store listings, and support macros for strings like `First Run Permissions`. That is a packaging question: does the name still ship, should it be renamed, or removed?

It is not a request for a new protocol. Klox white-label ships the same four-protocol core consumers get.

White-label branding versus the VPN tunnel
Your logo is packaging. The tunnel is still WireGuard, OpenVPN, OpenConnect, and Shadowsocks.

    First successful connect

  1. 1Download the app from klox.app/download — not a random APK site.
  2. 2Sign in with the account you paid for.
  3. 3Press WireGuard. Wait for the connected state.
  4. 4If it fails, try OpenVPN. Still failing: note the network (hotel, campus, home) before you write support.
Sheets people mash together. Confirm what your binary actually shows. Not a Klox grant rate. Not On Demand as a product name.
SheetWhat it actually isWhen to askIf they deny

First run is a gauntlet. One reason, one sheet, then Connect. Four sheets is how you train Deny.

Store vs tunnel

App Store screenshots and Play listing text are marketing surfaces. The tunnel handshake is engineering. Keep tickets separated.

Reseller and white-label paths differ; pick one story on your homepage.

When users mention First Run Permissions

If a subscriber cites `First Run Permissions` in a ticket, clarify whether they mean your website, your installer, or a VPN error message.

Your brand promise should match Klox capabilities: WireGuard, OpenVPN, OpenConnect, and Shadowsocks, five devices, honest refund language.

What the tunnel still does

Regardless of brand paint, the client wraps traffic the same way: encrypted tunnel to your chosen server, DNS through the tunnel when configured, kill switch optional per platform.

Keep marketing, engineering, and support in one thread when `First Run Permissions` changes. Silent renames cause refund spikes.

Your brand promise should match Klox capabilities: WireGuard, OpenVPN, OpenConnect, and Shadowsocks, five devices, honest refund language.

Partners win when support scripts are boring and accurate. Excitement in copy usually means someone promised a protocol feature that does not exist.

Do not promise features Klox does not ship — extra protocols, unlimited devices beyond plan limits, or compliance badges you cannot show.

Device cap

five devices per subscription is still enforced. Your pricing page should say so clearly.

Document which version removed or renamed `First Run Permissions` so SEO pages like this one stay truthful.

Protocol choice

WireGuard first, OpenVPN fallback — same as consumer. Document that in partner FAQs.

When unsure, link to /white-label instead of improvising specs in sales email.

Branding checklist around First Run Permissions

Keep marketing, engineering, and support in one thread when `First Run Permissions` changes. Silent renames cause refund spikes.

Store reviewers compare screenshots to real behavior. Mislabelled `First Run Permissions` strings are an easy rejection reason.

If you rebrand, update every surface in one release when possible. Half-old names confuse users and app review.

Keep /download logic in mind: consumer links on your domain should point to your build, not klox.app, unless that is intentional.

Reseller and white-label paths differ; pick one story on your homepage.

Download, sign in, connect WireGuard, fall back to OpenVPN
Install from klox.app/download. WireGuard first. OpenVPN if UDP is blocked.

Comments and CMS plugins

Some partners embed comment systems or CMS tools named `First Run Permissions`. That is website plumbing, not VPN configuration.
