Taiwan-based Seed4me offers a unique concept in the VPN industry. It is a private VPN club that can only be accessed with an invitation. The aim of this system is to ensure that all the members can enjoy the highest level of quality and the best possible speeds. The number of users that can register with the service is restricted based on the amount of servers that are available in the network. To join the club, you need to get an invitation from an existing member or take one of the public invitations that are available from time to time on their website. If you only want to use Seed4me on your mobile device, you don’t need to wait for an invitation. You can simply download the app and try the service for free for 7 days. We’ll go through Seed4me’s more important features.

Privacy and Security

Security is very important since our communications, browsing history and everything we do online could be intercepted by eavesdroppers and cyber criminals, unless we take the necessary measures to prevent this. Seed4.me protects you against security threats, by encrypting your data with up to 256-bit encryption. Such level of encryption will have an effect on the speed of your connection, so if you need fast performance for streaming, gaming or downloading, you can opt for 128-bit encryption instead. The protocols available are OpenVPN, PPTP and L2TP/IPsec. They also have their own DNS servers, which allows you to get better responses and enhanced protection for your privacy.

Seed4.me is not under the laws and surveillance organizations that could compromise the privacy and reliability of US-based companies. Additionally, they promise not to keep logs of your online activities. There are some connection logs kept, but only for 7 days and they are used to fix any network issues and ensure its good performance. P2P is allowed in some locations (such as Ukraine and Russia) and DMCA requests received are handled internally. They would simply block the IP address involved in copyright issues to comply. Another good thing about Seed4.me in terms of privacy is that Bitcoin is accepted as method of payment.

Features

Seed4.me supports a variety of platforms including Windows, Linux, Mac, iOS and Android. They have convenient and highly rated apps available on Google Play, the App Store and Amazon Appstore. Setting up Seed4.me is very easy as they offer software that can be installed within a few minutes. The installation wizard will guide you through the process and there are also practical guides available to configure the service manually. The fact that Seed4.me caters for a limited amount of customers and aims to take new ones only as the network grows, allows them to offer good speeds and unlimited bandwidth. This will allow you to stream and download content without hassle.

Another aspect that is important when you are considering a VPN service is ease of use, particularly if you are not very familiar with this technology. Seed4.me offers a service that is simple and that focuses on securing your connection and helping you to bypass online restrictions. You just need to select the server location you want to use and connect to it. If needed, you can change the protocol and modify some settings to suit your own needs, but in general, the software is fairly basic. This is an advantage if you want to avoid complicated technical setups that you don’t really require. The main thing is that Seed4.me lets you unblock content and keep your connection secure, even when you are using public WiFi networks and that is what most users are looking for.

They have servers in a variety of countries including United States, Russia, Netherlands, Hong Kong, Italy, United Kingdom, Ukraine, Singapore, Germany, France, Israel, Switzerland and India. They are regularly updating their network to offer support for new members. In general, Seed4.me provides good speeds and the service and the fact that they work to improve and extend their infrastructure when new users join the service, contributes to the reliability of the service.

Plans

As previously mentioned, if you want to join this VPN club to use the service on your computer, you would require an invitation. However, you can try a public invitation available on the website. Once you register, you will have the chance to try the service for free for a week. After that, you will need to pay for the service, but what makes Seed4.me stand out from its competitors is that instead of getting a subscription for a set time, you will be able to choose the amount of time that suits your needs. You can pay for one day, one week, one month or six months. Additional time can be purchased whenever needed and it is added to your balance. One day costs only $1, 7 days cost $2 and for three months, you pay only $10. The prices are very affordable and the fact that you can choose for how long you want to use the service is very convenient.

Customer Support

See4.me has a practical forum where news and updates about the service are regularly posted. You can reach out to them via Facebook and Twitter or send an email to the customer support team. They promise to reply within 30 minutes, although in some cases you may need to wait a few hours. Still, the service is efficient and the responses are professional and polite.

Conclusion

Seed4.me is a VPN solution that is flexible, easy to use and effective. The invitation system allows them to manage the growth of the network and ensure that existing customers get the best possible experience. While the selection of servers is limited when compared to other providers available, it covers key locations and allows users to enjoy reliable and fast performance.
