AkcaVPN is a VPN service operated by Akca Network OU (Estonia). You can access the VPN either by owning an AkcaVPN NFT on the Solana blockchain or by purchasing a Serial Number plan. Don't use the service for illegal activities. We operate a strict no-logs policy and respect your privacy, but we reserve the right to terminate access for abuse. All sales are final. Estonian law applies.
1. Acceptance of Terms
By accessing or using AkcaVPN (the "Service"), you agree to be bound by these Terms of Service ("Terms"). These Terms constitute a legally binding agreement between you and Akca Network OU (Registry Code 17404115), a company registered in Estonia.
You must be at least 18 years of age to use this Service. By using AkcaVPN, you represent and warrant that you are at least 18 years old and have the legal capacity to enter into these Terms.
If you do not agree to these Terms, do not use AkcaVPN. Your continued use of the Service constitutes acceptance of these Terms and any future modifications.
2. Service Description
AkcaVPN is a virtual private network (VPN) service operated by Akca Network OU. The Service encrypts your internet traffic and routes it through our servers to protect your privacy and security online.
2.1 Access Methods
AkcaVPN provides two methods of access:
- NFT-Based Access - Granted by owning an AkcaVPN NFT on the Solana blockchain. Your NFT serves as your access credential.
- Serial Number Access - Granted via a 16-digit serial number purchased through our platform. No email or password required.
2.2 Technology
AkcaVPN uses the WireGuard protocol, a modern, high-performance VPN protocol designed for simplicity and speed.
AkcaVPN is designed to protect your privacy and security. It is not designed, intended, or authorized for use in connection with any illegal activity. We provide privacy tools for legitimate use cases: protecting sensitive communications, securing public Wi-Fi connections, and exercising your right to online privacy.
3. Account & Access
3.1 NFT-Based Access
To access AkcaVPN via NFT, you must own a valid AkcaVPN NFT in a Solana-compatible wallet. Your wallet signature serves as authentication. No account registration is required.
3.2 Serial Number Access
Serial numbers are generated on auth.akca.network. Each serial number is a unique 16-digit identifier. No email address, username, or password is required. The serial number itself is your sole credential.
3.3 Your Responsibility
You are solely responsible for:
- Securing your Solana wallet and private keys (for NFT access)
- Safeguarding your 16-digit serial number (for serial number access)
- All activity that occurs under your access credentials
If you lose access to your wallet private keys or your serial number, we cannot recover them for you. There is no password reset or account recovery process. Store your credentials securely.
4. NFT Ownership & Transfers
AkcaVPN NFTs are standard Solana SPL tokens. As the owner, you have full control over your NFT:
- You may freely transfer your NFT to any Solana wallet
- You may sell or trade your NFT on any compatible marketplace
- VPN access transfers with the NFT - the new holder gains access
Akca Network OU is not responsible for secondary market transactions. We do not guarantee any resale value for AkcaVPN NFTs. Prices on secondary markets are determined entirely by market participants.
Blockchain risks: Smart contract interactions carry inherent risks, including but not limited to transaction failures, network congestion, and smart contract vulnerabilities. You acknowledge and accept these risks when using NFT-based access.
5. Payments & Refunds
5.1 Serial Number Plans
Serial number access plans are paid via credit card through Stripe, our payment processor. All payment processing is subject to Stripe's Terms of Service.
5.2 NFT Plans
NFT-based plans are paid in SOL (Solana's native cryptocurrency) at the time of NFT minting. The transaction is recorded on the Solana blockchain.
5.3 Refund Policy
No refunds are provided due to the nature of VPN services and NFT minting. Once a serial number is activated or an NFT is minted, the transaction cannot be reversed. We encourage you to review the service details before purchase.
5.4 Price Changes
Prices for AkcaVPN plans may change at any time. Any price changes will not affect existing active subscriptions, which will be honored at the price paid at the time of purchase.

AkcaVPN operates a strict no-logs policy. We do not monitor, log, or inspect your traffic. However, if we receive valid legal complaints or court orders, we may be required to take action, which can include terminating access.
