In this step-by-step guide, you’ll learn how to activate an L2TP connection on Apple devices (iPhone and iPad) in the simplest possible way.
First, go to Settings and select General, then open the VPN section. Next, add a new VPN configuration and choose L2TP as the connection protocol.
You will then enter the appropriate server address based on your account type (financial or non-financial), along with the username, password provided by the store, and the shared secret as instructed. After completing these fields and enabling Send All Traffic, all internet traffic on your device will be routed securely through the Iran VPN.
Finally, save the configuration by tapping Done and connect by selecting Connect. Once connected, you can access Iranian websites and banking services without needing to adjust the settings again. This fast and app-free method is especially convenient for users outside Iran, providing reliable and unrestricted access to Iranian online services.
After purchasing an Iran IP, please follow the steps below to connect on Apple devices. Separate guides are also available for connecting to an Iran IP on Android using L2TP and for connecting on Windows 8 and above using OpenVPN.

Frequently Asked Questions
- Do users outside Iran need an Iran IP to access Iranian services?
Yes. Many Iranian banking services, judicial platforms, and domestic websites are only accessible with an Iran IP address. Users outside the country need to switch their IP to Iran to use these services.
- How can I change my device’s IP address to Iran?
To change your IP to Iran, you need to use a VPN or proxy service that provides servers located in Iran. These tools allow users to connect to Iranian websites and services without restrictions.
- What are the benefits of a VPN with a static (dedicated) IP?
A static IP provides a more stable and secure connection, especially for banking services and sensitive websites. This type of VPN is ideal for users who need continuous, reliable access without frequent disconnections.
- What is the difference between a proxy and a VPN?
A proxy only routes traffic for a specific browser or application, while a VPN encrypts all internet traffic and routes it through an Iran-based server. In terms of security and stability, a VPN is generally the better option.
- Is connecting to an Iran IP on an iPhone complicated?
No. Simply go to Settings > General > VPN, configure the L2TP settings, and enter the information provided by the store. Your device will be ready to use an Iran IP in just a few minutes.
- What should I do if I encounter a connection error?
First, double-check the entered settings to ensure they are correct. If the issue persists, try alternative connection methods or refer to the guides available on the website. You can also contact support via WhatsApp or Telegram for assistance.
