This page is for founders, agencies, and IT shops packaging Klox under their own name. It is not a consumer setup guide — end users still download your app build and press Connect.
We keep commercial facts upfront: consumer pricing reference is $2.83/month on the yearly plan with 7-day money-back on your first purchase; partner economics live on /white-label and /reseller.
Makeself may appear in your stack — website, comments, installers, or admin tools. None of that replaces the VPN protocol or adds a secret "Makeself mode" inside the tunnel.
White-label VPN partners often ask how Makeself fits next to a branded Klox client. Short answer: branding, billing, and support are yours; the tunnel is still WireGuard, OpenVPN, OpenConnect, and Shadowsocks on five devices.

What Makeself is in your stack
Partners grep builds, store listings, and support macros for strings like `Makeself`. That is a packaging question: does the name still ship, should it be renamed, or removed?
Your brand promise should match Klox capabilities: WireGuard, OpenVPN, OpenConnect, and Shadowsocks, five devices, honest refund language.
When unsure, link to /white-label instead of improvising specs in sales email.
Run quarterly content audits on blog posts that mention `Makeself` so partners do not contradict each other.
It is not a request for a new protocol. Klox white-label ships the same four-protocol core consumers get.

How to read this page
Store vs tunnel
App Store screenshots and Play listing text are marketing surfaces. The tunnel handshake is engineering. Keep tickets separated.
Partners win when support scripts are boring and accurate. Excitement in copy usually means someone promised a protocol feature that does not exist.
When users mention Makeself
If a subscriber cites `Makeself` in a ticket, clarify whether they mean your website, your installer, or a VPN error message.
Store reviewers compare screenshots to real behavior. Mislabelled `Makeself` strings are an easy rejection reason.
What the tunnel still does
When unsure, link to /white-label instead of improvising specs in sales email.
Do not promise features Klox does not ship — extra protocols, unlimited devices beyond plan limits, or compliance badges you cannot show.
Keep marketing, engineering, and support in one thread when `Makeself` changes. Silent renames cause refund spikes.
Store reviewers compare screenshots to real behavior. Mislabelled `Makeself` strings are an easy rejection reason.
You inherit server capacity, protocol maintenance, and core app updates from Klox infrastructure. You own front-line support and brand promise.
| Crop | Desk | Next move |
|---|---|---|
| Makeself in a listing or helper | Packaging / white-label | Strip, rename, or leave |
| Handshake / Connecting | Consumer app | Swap protocol once |
| Store metadata lag | Console + binary | Edit listing after rebuild |
| Cafe destinations visible | VPN tunnel | Connect. Not a string rename |

five devices per subscription is still enforced. Your pricing page should say so clearly.

Partners win when support scripts are boring and accurate. Excitement in copy usually means someone promised a protocol feature that does not exist.

Confirm `Makeself` still appears where you expect: installer metadata, about screen, support templates, and marketing site.
