InHive · invite-only VPN club

Updated: 15 May 2026

1. What is InHive?

InHive is an invite-only VPN club. It includes:

  • Access to our VPN servers across several countries via subscription;
  • The InHive app for iOS, Android, Windows and macOS, which auto-connects via the subscription;
  • A points, invites, roulette, and achievements system for inviting friends.

You can only join the club through an invite code from an existing member or an official source.

2. How do I join the club?

  1. Get an invite code (format XXXX-XXXX) from a friend who's already in the club.
  2. Sign up at inhive.ru/signup with the invite code — or open the Telegram bot @InHive_bot with the /start inv_CODE command.
  3. You'll instantly get a 5-day trial subscription and server access.

3. How do I connect to the VPN?

  1. Install the InHive app from GitHub releases (Android/Windows/macOS) or via TestFlight on iOS — request an invite from @InHive_support_bot.
  2. Open your subscription URL https://inhive.ru/<your-subid> on the device — the app will intercept it and save the profile.
  3. Or copy the link from /account and paste it into the app manually.
  4. Tap "Connect" — the tunnel comes up in a couple of seconds.

4. How many devices can I connect?

Default is 2 devices per subscription. You can buy a higher limit in the bot or on the site — it's a one-time purchase that doesn't reset on renewal.

Active devices appear in /account under "Devices".

5. What plans are available?

Full pricing — at /pricing. Plans cover 1, 3 and 6 months, paid via SBP in rubles. Longer plans = cheaper per month.

6. What are points for?

You earn points from inviting friends and from their purchases. There's a three-level pyramid — you earn not only from direct invites, but also from their invites, and from their invites' invites:

  • Per invite (L1 / L2 / L3): +5 / +2 / +1 point
  • Their 1-month buy: +15 / +5 / +2 points
  • Their 3-month buy: +30 / +10 / +3 points
  • Their 6-month buy: +50 / +20 / +5 points

Points decide your place in the monthly TOP-25 — winners get prize subscriptions, promo slots, custom emoji. Counter resets at month-end, the race restarts.

7. What are bee statuses?

Alongside points, there's a status by number of invitees — 11 levels (M/F variants):

  • 🐛 Larva — 0 invited (start)
  • 🐝 Flying bee — 1+
  • 🐝 Gatherer — 3+
  • 🐝 Worker bee — 6+
  • 🔨 Builder — 12+
  • 🛡 Guard — 18+
  • 🔍 Scout — 24+
  • 🍯 Honey keeper — 30+
  • 🎓 Mentor — 36+
  • ⭐ Senior bee — 42+
  • 👑 King / Queen — 50+

Your status shows next to your nickname in the TG bot and on the site.

8. What's the roulette 🎰?

When your invite is redeemed by a new member, you automatically get a roulette spin. Possible prizes:

  • 🎁 Jackpot 777 — premium emoji + "Lucky 🍀" achievement
  • 📅 +3-5 days on your subscription (two sevens)
  • 📅 +1-2 days on your subscription
  • 🎟 +1 invite
  • ⭐ +5 to +20 points
  • 🎨 New emoji in collection (~47% chance)

The more you invite, the more prizes you collect. Spin history and emoji collection live in /account.

9. How do I get more invites?

After 5 successful invites in a month, the system grants +1 invite. Generate invites from your stash in /account → "Invites 🎟" section.

Starting stash on signup — 2 invites.

10. What's the progressive day "kickback"?

When an invitee buys a subscription, days are automatically added to yours. The more invitees you have, the more days you receive:

  • 0+ invitees: +1 day (1mo) / +1 (3mo) / +2 (6mo)
  • 5+ invitees: +2 / +2 / +3
  • 20+ invitees: +3 / +3 / +4
  • 30+ invitees: +4 / +4 / +5
  • 50+ invitees: +5 / +5 / +6

11. Achievements 🏆

The club has ~35 achievements across 5 categories. Full list with descriptions is in /account:

  • 🍯 Membership — for purchases and renewals (Newbie, Regular, Veteran, Legend)
  • 🐝 Invites — for quantity and quality of invitees (Recruiter, Leader, Ambassador)
  • 🎰 Roulette — for emoji collection and spins (Collector, Full Set, Spinner)
  • 📊 TOP — for ranking position (Bronze, Silver, Gold, Dominator)
  • ✨ Special — for early joins, bugs, easter eggs and more

12. What if the VPN won't connect?

  • Check your subscription isn't expired — open /account and look at the expiry date.
  • Re-enter the app and refresh the subscription (pull-to-refresh on the server list).
  • Try a different server from the list — we run multiple ASNs and protocols (Reality, VLESS, UTProto, NaiveProxy).
  • Still broken? Contact support or message us on Telegram: @InHive_support_bot.

13. Can I use it on a router?

The subscription works with any client that supports VLESS / Reality / sing-box (Hiddify, NekoBox, v2rayN, OpenWrt, Home Assistant, etc.). Just copy the URL from /account and import it into your client.

14. What about privacy?

We don't keep traffic logs. Email is used only for sign-in and notifications. Details — in the privacy policy.

15. How do I link Telegram to my web account?

Open /account → "Link Telegram" → sign in via the Telegram Login Widget. Accounts merge automatically: points, invites, and subscriptions roll into a single wallet.

16. Where do we hang out?

Club channel — @InHive_club. Releases, news, discussion. Support is a separate bot — @InHive_support_bot.

17. Secure environment (Android)

In InHive 4.1+ for Android there's a "Secure environment" feature — Russian apps (Sber, Yandex, VK, etc.) that detect VPN are cloned into a separate Work Profile where the VPN is inactive. Open Settings → 🛡 Secure environment in the app.

18. How do I delete my account?

Contact support or Telegram @InHive_support_bot with your email — we'll wipe the account and subscriptions within 48 hours.
