Attention! Incognito mode or a VPN may affect payment approval and download speed.  

When you try to get a Keep2Share premium account, we will provide information about what the message “Attention! Incognito mode or a VPN may affect payment approval and download speed.” means and what we should do in this article.

When purchasing a Keep2Share Premium account, you might encounter this warning:

“Attention! Incognito mode or a VPN may affect payment approval and download speed.”

So what does it really mean—and how should you respond?

Understanding the Warning

1. Incognito Mode (Private Browsing)

Using incognito mode can interfere with the payment process. In this mode, your browser doesn’t store cookies, browsing history, or session data. Some payment providers rely on this data to verify and approve transactions. Without it, your payment could be flagged as suspicious or even blocked.

2. VPN Usage

If you’re connected to a VPN, Keep2Share may detect that your IP address is coming from a different country or region than your billing information. This can trigger fraud prevention systems and cause payment issues.

In addition, downloading files through a VPN can slow down your download speed, especially if the VPN server is far from Keep2Share’s servers or has limited bandwidth.

How to Avoid Problems

• Make sure incognito mode is disabled when making your payment.
• Turn off your VPN during the checkout process.
• If you need to use a VPN, wait until after the payment is complete.
• Try using a different browser if you still face issues.

💡 Bonus Tip:

If your country restricts certain payment methods, you can use a VPN only after the payment is processed. Just make sure to download from a server near your real location for the best speed.
