White-label VPN partners often ask how Squirrel 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.
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.
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.
Squirrel may appear in your stack — website, comments, installers, or admin tools. None of that replaces the VPN protocol or adds a secret "Squirrel mode" inside the tunnel.

KloxVPN — from $2.83/month. Apps for every device.
What Squirrel is in your stack
Keep marketing, engineering, and support in one thread when `Squirrel` changes. Silent renames cause refund spikes.
Partners grep builds, store listings, and support macros for strings like `Squirrel`. That is a packaging question: does the name still ship, should it be renamed, or removed?
Run quarterly content audits on blog posts that mention `Squirrel` so partners do not contradict each other.
Store reviewers compare screenshots to real behavior. Mislabelled `Squirrel` strings are an easy rejection reason.
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
| Surface | Job | Lie | Failure |
|---|---|---|---|
| Squirrel / nupkg package | Pack files into squirrel nupkg; nupkg writes Apps and tiles | Squirrel is MSI or NSIS | old squirrel feed ID, old PFN, wrong KB |
| MSI / Windows Installer | The other package; other essay | The squirrel nupkg is an MSI database | Wrong macro, Friday status |
| NSIS packer | The other packer; other essay | The EXE wrapper is the Squirrel | Wrong macro, Friday status |
| Catalog (.cat) | Signed hash list for a file collection | A .cat is an RELEASES Identity | Panic KB, CatRoot lecture |
| SmartScreen banner | Reputation on publisher and hash | Rebuild Squirrel deletes the banner | Disable-filter advice, next clone |
| AMD64 and ARM64 /download | Two Windows artifacts Klox consumer ships | This desk is the architecture picker | Wrong bits, not the packer |
| Cookie on klox.app | Site cookies | The installer is a cookie | See /cookie; neither is Squirrel |
Squirrel is the nupkg old. It is not MSI, NSIS, a catalog, or SmartScreen.

Cloudflare Learning: What is a VPN?
Store vs tunnel
App Store screenshots and Play listing text are marketing surfaces. The tunnel handshake is engineering. Keep tickets separated.
Store reviewers compare screenshots to real behavior. Mislabelled `Squirrel` strings are an easy rejection reason.
When users mention Squirrel
If a subscriber cites `Squirrel` in a ticket, clarify whether they mean your website, your installer, or a VPN error message.
Partners win when support scripts are boring and accurate. Excitement in copy usually means someone promised a protocol feature that does not exist.
What the tunnel still does
Run quarterly content audits on blog posts that mention `Squirrel` so partners do not contradict each other.
Document which version removed or renamed `Squirrel` so SEO pages like this one stay truthful.
Do not promise features Klox does not ship — extra protocols, unlimited devices beyond plan limits, or compliance badges you cannot show.
Store reviewers compare screenshots to real behavior. Mislabelled `Squirrel` strings are an easy rejection reason.
Regardless of brand paint, the client wraps traffic the same way: encrypted tunnel to your chosen server, DNS through the tunnel when configured, kill switch optional per platform.
Device cap
five devices per subscription is still enforced. Your pricing page should say so clearly.
Your brand promise should match Klox capabilities: WireGuard, OpenVPN, OpenConnect, and Shadowsocks, five devices, honest refund language.
Protocol choice
WireGuard first, OpenVPN fallback — same as consumer. Document that in partner FAQs.
