What payment methods does Kryon accept?

2 min read

Kryon supports four payment paths. The available options at checkout depend on your platform and region.

Stripe — international cards

Pays with a debit or credit card (Visa, Mastercard, Amex). Apple Pay and Google Pay are also offered through Stripe when supported by your device and browser. Auto-renewal is enabled by default and can be disabled in Profile → Subscription.

Best for: most countries outside Russia.

YooKassa — Russian cards

Pays with a card issued by a Russian bank, including NSPK / Mir cards. Currency: RUB. Auto-renewal works via saved payment method. If three consecutive auto-renewal attempts fail, the saved method is deactivated and you'll need to re-enter card details.

Best for: customers in Russia.

Cryptomus — cryptocurrency

Pays with USDT (Tether). Network is selected at checkout (TRC20, ERC20, BEP20, and others depending on availability). Network fees are paid by you on top of the price.

  • Crypto payments do not auto-renew. Each renewal is a manual purchase.
  • Crypto payments are not refundable — see refund policy.

Best for: users who prefer crypto or where cards are not accepted.

App Store / Google Play (in-app purchase)

When you buy from the iOS, macOS, or Android app, the purchase goes through Apple or Google. Subscription is managed by the store — auto-renewal is on by default and can be cancelled in:

  • iOS / macOS — Settings → [Your Name] → Subscriptions → Kryon VPN
  • Android — Google Play → Subscriptions → Kryon VPN

Only IAP purchases include the 3-day free trial for new subscribers.

Which method should I use?

  • In Russia — YooKassa or Cryptomus
  • Other countries with a regular card — Stripe
  • No card / privacy preference — Cryptomus
  • From iOS / macOS / Android app, want a trial — App Store or Google Play

Why doesn't my card work?

  • Stripe checkout asks for 3D Secure on most cards — confirm via SMS or banking app
  • A Russian card on Stripe will be declined — use YooKassa instead
  • A foreign card on YooKassa may be declined — use Stripe instead
