Coverage

City-level targeting in the United Kingdom

Target any city with precise geo-targeting. Select a city directly in your proxy credentials.

Why United Kingdom

Why use United Kingdom residential proxies?

Authentic British ISP Traffic

UK websites apply strict bot detection and frequently geo-fence content to British visitors. Routing through real UK home connections from BT, Sky, Virgin Media, EE, and TalkTalk lets your requests look like genuine domestic users browsing from London, Manchester, or Glasgow, rather than flagged datacenter ranges.

City-Level Targeting Across the UK

Pricing, search results, and ad inventory shift between English, Scottish, Welsh, and Northern Irish markets. Target London, Birmingham, Manchester, Leeds, Liverpool, Glasgow, Edinburgh, Bristol, Cardiff, or Belfast directly to collect data the way local users actually see it on Google.co.uk and regional retailers.

7.6M+ IP Pool With Low Block Rates

With 7.6M+ UK residential IPs spread across major and secondary cities, request volume distributes across a wide pool of ASNs and subnets. That diversity reduces CAPTCHAs on protected sites like Amazon UK, Argos, John Lewis, and Rightmove, and keeps long-running scrape jobs stable through session rotation.

Protocol Flexibility for Any Stack

Every UK endpoint supports HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 over the same credentials. Use rotating sessions for high-volume crawls, or sticky sessions tied to a single IP for account workflows and checkout testing. Switch protocols without reconfiguring the endpoint or rebuilding your proxy layer.
