Notes
Use a mobile proxy for:
- Geo-accurate testing of your own properties and permitted region-specific content.
- Working within rate limits and verification flows.
- Routing authorized traffic through real mobile networks.
Use mobileProxy when authenticity and access success are more important than speed or cost. Cost is 7 credits per request. For lower-cost alternatives, consider a premium residential proxy or a datacenter proxy; target a specific country with proxyCountry.
