## What is a European residential proxy?

A European residential proxy routes your requests through an IP address that a home-broadband provider assigned to a subscriber in Europe. Websites see a normal household connection, not a data centre.

That matters for local results. Search engines, shops and ad networks change what they show by country and city. A Manchester IP on Virgin Media sees what a Manchester shopper sees.

PontProxy, a no-KYC UK & Europe residential and 4G/5G proxy provider, sells these IPs per GB. One pack works in every country of the zone.

## How does city targeting work?

You choose the country and city in your proxy username. There is no separate city price and no extra plan.

- `country-gb` selects the United Kingdom. Use two-letter ISO codes, such as `de`, `fr` or `pl`.
- `city-london` narrows the exit IP to London. Write the city in lower case, without spaces.
- `session-a1b2c3` keeps the same IP across requests.
- `ttl-30` sets the sticky time in minutes, up to 60 minutes.

The full format is `USERNAME-country-{cc}-city-{city}-session-{id}-ttl-{minutes}`. City availability depends on local IP supply. Check every exit IP with our [ASN lookup guide](https://pontproxy.com/guides/check-proxy-asn/).

*curl: sticky London session for 30 minutes*

```bash
curl -x http://USERNAME-country-gb-city-london-session-a1b2c3-ttl-30:PASSWORD@gw.pontproxy.com:7777 https://ipinfo.io/json
```

## Which ISPs do the residential IPs come from?

IPs come from the main consumer broadband networks of each country. ISP and ASN targeting are included, so you can pin one network.

| Country | Main consumer networks (ASN) |
|---|---|
| United Kingdom | BT (AS2856), Virgin Media (AS5089), Sky (AS5607), TalkTalk (AS13285) |
| Germany | Deutsche Telekom (AS3320), Vodafone (AS3209), Telefónica o2 (AS6805), 1&1 Versatel (AS8881) |
| France | Orange (AS3215), SFR (AS15557), Bouygues Telecom (AS5410), Free (AS12322) |
| Netherlands | KPN (AS1136), VodafoneZiggo (AS33915), Odido |
| Spain | Telefónica de España (AS3352), Orange (AS12479), Vodafone (AS12430), Digi (AS57269) |
| Italy | Telecom Italia (AS3269), Fastweb (AS30722), Wind Tre (AS1267) |
| Poland | Orange Polska (AS5617), T-Mobile Polska (AS12912), Play (AS39603), Plus (AS8374) |

ASN holders from ipinfo.io and RIPEstat, checked 5 October 2026. Your exit IP's ASN shows in the `org` field of ipinfo.io.

## Which protocols and session types are supported?

Every residential plan supports HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5 on the same credentials.

- **HTTP/HTTPS:** gw.pontproxy.com, port 7777.
- **SOCKS5:** gw.pontproxy.com, port 7778. Use `socks5h` so DNS resolves at the exit.
- **Rotating:** leave out the session parameter, and every request gets a new IP.
- **Sticky:** add a session ID and a ttl, up to 60 minutes.

Sticky sessions suit logins and checkouts in test accounts. Rotating sessions suit large scraping jobs. Code samples for Python, Node.js, Scrapy and Playwright are in the [quickstart guide](https://pontproxy.com/guides/quickstart/).

## What are European residential proxies used for?

Residential IPs are used to see the web as local visitors see it. Legitimate uses include:

- [Price monitoring](https://pontproxy.com/use-cases/price-monitoring/) on Amazon.co.uk, Argos, Amazon.de, Otto, Idealo and Zalando.
- [SERP tracking](https://pontproxy.com/use-cases/serp-tracking/) on Google from a city such as London, Berlin or Paris.
- [Ad verification](https://pontproxy.com/use-cases/ad-verification/) to check that ads and affiliate links display correctly in each market.
- [Geo-testing](https://pontproxy.com/use-cases/geo-testing/) of websites, consent banners and language redirects.
- Brand protection and market research on public pages.

Fraud, account takeover, spam and similar uses are prohibited by our [Acceptable Use Policy](https://pontproxy.com/acceptable-use/).

## How much do European residential proxies cost?

## Residential or mobile proxies: which should I choose?

Choose residential for most scraping, SERP and price work. Choose mobile when you need a carrier IP for app testing or mobile ad checks.

| | Residential | 4G/5G mobile |
|---|---|---|
| IP source | Home broadband | Carrier SIM card |
| Billing | Per GB, from $0.36/GB | Per port from $4.50/day, or per GB from $1.50/GB |
| City targeting | Included | Country and carrier |
| Best for | Scraping, SERP, prices | App tests, mobile ads |

## Residential proxies: frequently asked questions

### What are the best European residential proxies with city targeting?

Look for city targeting included in the base price, clear per-GB pricing and traffic that does not expire. PontProxy includes country, city and ISP targeting in every plan, across 50 countries, from $0.36/GB. Some providers charge extra: DataImpulse adds a small fee for city targeting, as of October 2026. No KYC is required, and payment is crypto.

### How do I pay — do I top up a balance?

Yes. You top up your PontProxy balance in crypto (BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC), then buy any plan from it. The minimum top-up is $25. Unused balance stays on your account, so a small plan such as 1 GB for $0.95 leaves the rest available for later plans. No KYC — no ID, no selfie, no documents.

### How many European countries can I target?

PontProxy has residential pages for 50 countries in the UK, the EU, EFTA, the Balkans, Turkey and Cyprus, and every country is available at checkout. One residential pack works in all of them, so you can split traffic between London, Berlin and Warsaw without buying separate plans.

### Is there an extra charge for city or ISP targeting?

No. Every plan has country, city and ISP/ASN targeting included at no extra cost. You set the city in the proxy username, for example `country-de-city-berlin`. The price per GB is the same for every country and every city. ISP and ASN targeting are also included, which helps when a target treats networks differently.

### How long can a sticky session last?

A sticky session can last up to 60 minutes. Add `session-` plus your own ID and `ttl-` plus the minutes to the username. The same exit IP is kept for that time while the home connection stays online. Use a new session ID whenever you want a fresh IP in the same city.

### Does residential traffic expire?

No. At PontProxy, residential and rotating-mobile traffic never expires. That differs from monthly subscriptions and from credit systems such as SOAX, whose credits expire after 60 days, as of October 2026. You can buy 100 GB and use it over many months.

### Which UK ISPs are available?

UK residential IPs come from BT, Sky, Virgin Media and TalkTalk. Their networks are BT (AS2856), Virgin Media (AS5089), Sky (AS5607) and TalkTalk (AS13285). You can target UK cities such as London, Manchester and Glasgow. See the [UK residential proxies](https://pontproxy.com/residential-proxies/united-kingdom/) page for details.

### Can I pay for residential proxies without KYC?

Yes. PontProxy asks for no ID, no selfie and no documents. You log in with an account number, and email is optional. Payment is crypto only: Bitcoin (BTC), Tether (USDT), USD Coin (USDC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL), Litecoin (LTC). Credentials arrive as soon as the payment confirms. Read more on [no-KYC proxies](https://pontproxy.com/no-kyc-proxies/).

### Can I test before buying a large plan?

Yes. The smallest plan is $0.95 (paid from a $25 minimum top-up; the rest stays on your balance — never expires, non-refundable) for 1 GB, which is enough to test targeting and speed on your own targets. Unused traffic never expires. Our refund terms are: unused residential or rotating-mobile traffic credited back to your balance within 7 days of purchase; a dedicated port that does not work as described credited back within 24 hours; balance itself is never refunded. See the [refund policy](https://pontproxy.com/refunds/).
