IP2Proxy

Verified Jul 2026

IP2Proxy Web Service, from the same vendor as IP2Location, focuses on detecting proxies, VPNs, Tor exit nodes, and other anonymizers rather than plain geolocation. It requires an API key for every query, returns JSON or XML, and is sold via prepaid credit packs — a one-time 1,000-credit free trial, then from $50 for 10,000 credits.

Auth quickstart

  1. Sign up with the provider to get an API key.
  2. Send it on every request as a headerAuthorization: <key>
  3. The exact header isn't documented — Authorization is a common default; confirm in the provider's docs.
Stored keyNo key stored

Your key is stored only in this browser (localStorage) and sent directly to the API — never to greatapis.
