Quickstart: Your First Request

Create your account

Register at dashboard.proxio.net/register. You can sign up with email and password, an email magic link, or a Google, GitHub, or Discord account.

Top up and buy a residential package

Open your Wallet, add funds, then buy a Residential package from your balance. Package prices are listed at proxio.net/pricing; the step-by-step top-up flow (card, crypto, and deposit bonuses) is in Wallet & Top-Up.

Copy your credentials

Open your new service and go to its Setup tab. There you'll find your proxy username, password, and the gateway host and port (geo.proxio.cc:16666), plus ready-to-copy code examples.

Send your first request

Route a request to https://ipinfo.io through the gateway. Pick your language, cURL first:

curl -x http://USERNAME:[email protected]:16666 https://ipinfo.io

# pip install requests
import requests

proxy = "http://USERNAME:[email protected]:16666"

resp = requests.get(
    "https://ipinfo.io",
    proxies={"http": proxy, "https": proxy},
)
print(resp.json())

// npm install axios https-proxy-agent
import axios from "axios"
import { HttpsProxyAgent } from "https-proxy-agent"

const agent = new HttpsProxyAgent(
  "http://USERNAME:[email protected]:16666"
)

const { data } = await axios.get("https://ipinfo.io", {
  httpAgent: agent,
  httpsAgent: agent,
})
console.log(data)

<?php
$ch = curl_init("https://ipinfo.io");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXY, "http://geo.proxio.cc:16666");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_PROXYUSERPWD, "USERNAME:PASSWORD");
curl_setopt($ch, CURLOPT_RETURNTRANSFER, true);

echo curl_exec($ch);
curl_close($ch);

Verify and add a country

The response from ipinfo.io shows the exit IP and its location. If it's a different IP from your own, your traffic is now flowing through Proxio.

To pin the exit to a specific country, append -region- and a country code to your username. For a US exit, your base username USERNAME becomes USERNAME-region-us:

curl -x "http://USERNAME-region-us:[email protected]:16666" https://ipinfo.io

For example, a base username of abcxyz123def becomes abcxyz123def-region-us. Run it again and the reported country should now be the United States.
