VladLinkVPN: VPN for Telegram Stars

Need a VPN but would rather not hand a card number to yet another site? VladLinkVPN works inside Telegram and takes payment in Telegram Stars, so the whole thing happens in one chat. ⭐️

The bot describes itself as "VPN for the stars". You press start, and the first week is a free trial.

Pay with Stars, skip the card form

Telegram Stars is the messenger's internal currency. You buy it inside Telegram and spend it on digital goods and services. For a small VPN service it is a handy way to take payments without card pages.

Buy Stars only through the official Telegram flow. Offers of cheap Stars from strangers are a common scam pattern.

A week to test it properly

The bot description promises a 7-day test after you tap start. That is enough time to check what matters: do your sites open, do your apps behave, does speed drop in the evening?

1. Launch the bot with /start.
2. Take the trial and set up the VPN using the tips from /help.
3. Test your real use cases: video, messengers, work tools.
4. Decide before the trial ends whether to pay for a subscription.

What multihop actually does

The service advertises encryption and multihop. In plain terms, your traffic passes through a chain of servers instead of a single one. The destination site sees the last server's address, and the first server doesn't know where you ended up.

The usual price of that design is slightly higher latency. Reading news or chatting won't show it, while fast online games might.

Five commands, that's all

• /start begins the conversation with the bot.
• /help gives setup help.
• /user shows your account information.
• /pay opens subscription payment.
• /ref gives you a referral link.

You can pass the referral link to friends, but read the bonus terms in the bot before promising anyone a reward.

Protecting your Stars from a bad bet

This is a small service: Telegram reports around 110 monthly active users. We found no independent public reviews or audits, so a little caution is reasonable.

• Test first. Don't pay until your key sites have worked during the 7 trial days.
• Start short. Pick the shortest period for your first payment, if one is offered.
• Mind sensitive logins. Turn on two-step verification for banking and important accounts.
• Remember the operator. Any VPN provider can technically see part of your traffic. That applies to every service of this type.

A VPN does not make you invisible. It hides your address from websites and encrypts the link to the server, but the accounts you sign in to still identify you.
