United Kingdom proxies: residential IPs by city

Send requests as if from a home in United Kingdom. Target a city, change the IP per request or keep using the same IP. A UK IP is the standard way to check prices on Amazon.co.uk, Argos and Tesco or to track Google UK rankings. The UK is one of the largest ad markets in Europe, so verifying ads and landing pages priced in pounds is a common task. All IP types work in the United Kingdom, including residential, ISP, mobile, dedicated and shared datacenter, and IPv6.

How do I get a United Kingdom IP address?

You get a United Kingdom IP just by putting the country code in your username. With rotating residential proxies, a username like user-country-gb gives you a fresh United Kingdom home IP on every request, billed from your balance by traffic used. The gateway gate.proxytoo.com:7000 and your access token stay exactly the same as for any other country.

If you need to keep the same United Kingdom IP for a while, add a session name, as in user-country-gb-session-shop1. Requests with the same session name keep one IP for up to 120 minutes, so a login or a multi step check can finish in one flow. Pick United Kingdom under Create connection details in the dashboard to get HTTP, SOCKS5 and curl formats in one go.

How does city targeting work for United Kingdom proxies?

You can currently choose from 5 cities in United Kingdom, set with a city part at the end of the username. For example, user-country-gb-city-london connects through an IP in that city. Write the city in lowercase and replace spaces with underscores.

City targeting is most useful when results change by area. Delivery zones, store stock and local search results can all differ from city to city within United Kingdom, and a city IP shows you exactly what locals see. Combine a city and a session to keep one IP in that city.

When city level results aren't essential, a country only username draws on a wider range of United Kingdom IPs for smoother connections. A practical approach is to collect at the country level first, then target cities only on the pages where local differences matter.

What are United Kingdom proxies used for?

United Kingdom proxies let you see and collect pages exactly as local users see them. Beyond search rankings and product prices, they fit almost any job that deals with information that changes by location.

When comparing travel fares, hotel rates or flights, where price and currency depend on the visitor's country, a United Kingdom IP gets you the local figures. Location based listings such as real estate, job postings and secondhand marketplaces also appear in the same order and with the same content local users get.

For brand protection, teams use United Kingdom IPs to scan local online marketplaces for unauthorized listings of their products. If you run a multilingual site, you can confirm that United Kingdom visitors land on the right language page and currency.

Which ProxyToo products work for United Kingdom?

Rotating residential and ISP proxies let you pick United Kingdom IPs directly. Rotating residential at $0.78 per GB is billed by use and suits scraping and checks, while ISP proxies at $1.08 per IP per month keep the same United Kingdom IP for the whole term, which suits long running work like account management.

Datacenter and mobile proxies are available in countries that have those IPs. If United Kingdom is on the list of 18 countries with datacenter IPs or 56 countries with mobile IPs, you can use dedicated datacenter at $0.63 per IP per month, shared datacenter at $0.0163, IPv6 at $0.0818 and mobile at $2.18 per GB. For mobile, write the username as user-type-mobile-country-gb.

Unlimited residential proxies cost $37.58 per day, with unmetered traffic over a mix of countries. Choose rotating residential or ISP proxies for jobs that need United Kingdom IPs only, and unlimited residential for high volume jobs where mixed countries are fine. Every product is paid from one balance.

What should I know when working with United Kingdom websites?

United Kingdom websites follow the rhythm of the local time zone, so timing your requests by local time feels natural. During local daytime there are more real visitors for your requests to blend in with, and price or stock changes usually follow local hours too. When planning a scraping schedule, convert your server time to United Kingdom local time.

Set your browser or automation tool's language, time zone and currency to match United Kingdom, so the IP location and page settings line up and pages open just as they do for locals. Put the local language in the Accept-Language header, and in Playwright or an antidetect browser change the time zone and geolocation values as well.

Comparing with neighboring countries in Europe shows at a glance what differs from country to country. Since only the country code in the username changes, one script can run the whole comparison. Start with a small test, check the responses, then scale up to use your balance efficiently.
