Once you have purchased a Brave VPN subscription, you may connect up to 10 devices. These additional connections can be made with any combination of platforms (Android, iOS, or Desktop).

In order to share the subscription across devices, you will need to set up a Brave account which will serve as a hub for all your Brave Premium subscriptions. Please visit https://account.brave.com and create or login to your account at any time.

💡Note that Brave Browser is required to use the Firewall + VPN service on any platform – this document assumes you already have Brave installed on your devices.

How do I resolve the "error: receipt not found" error message that I received when attempting the linking process?

This error typically occurs for a couple of different reasons. Most users run into this (or similar) issues due to simply performing the steps incorrectly. These potential causes may be:

• You are not performing the linking steps on the mobile device in which the subscription was purchased — many users will perform these steps on the device they want to link to (for example, if a user wants to link their subscription purchased on a mobile device to a desktop PC, they might perform some or all of the linking steps on their PC). However, the receipt information is held on the device in which the subscription was purchased. Please ensure that you are using the same mobile device in which you used to purchase the subscription and steps 1-4 are performed on that device.
• You are attempting to link from the "in-app" browser — this occurs when you use an external email client/app (for example, the gmail app), where tapping on a link opens the link from an "in-app" browser, as opposed to opening the Brave app itself. To ensure this is not the issue, simply perform the linking steps again and after clicking Link purchase to my Brave account and receiving the email, long-press the link and copy the link address, then open the Brave browser app and paste it there directly.
• You are attempting the above in a Private browsing window — the Premium website will not be able to read the purchase receipt from within a Private browsing window. Please ensure that all steps are being performed in Brave in a standard browsing window/tab.
• You have linked this subscription to a different Premium account/email address previously — its worth noting that each subscription can only be linked to one email address. If you have successfully linked your subscription previous to this current attempt using a different email address, you will get an error.

Please confirm whether any of the above scenarios apply to you. If so, please try the steps again with the above in mind.
