City, region and ISP targeting in the UK

Rotating residential proxies in the UK can be targeted by country, region, city or ISP: 1,249 cities in 4 regions and 177 ISPs and networks, counted across all our pools.

Regions with the most cities you can target:

• England: 989 cities
• Scotland: 133 cities
• Wales: 88 cities
• Northern Ireland: 30 cities

Choose the region, city or ISP in the proxy generator in your dashboard, or list and pick them over the API.

Why a UK residential IP matters

Retailers, search engines, streaming catalogues, and ad networks routinely tailor what they show based on where a visitor appears to be. To see exactly what a real person in Britain sees — local pricing in pounds, UK-specific search results, or region-aware content — your request needs to originate from a genuine UK residential IP.

Because Nefo addresses come from real consumer devices, sites treat them as ordinary British visitors rather than datacentre traffic. That makes them well suited to accurate, lawful research where an authentic local viewpoint is the whole point.

Sessions and protocols

Pair your UK targeting with the session type that fits the task. Rotating sessions hand you a new British IP on every request — ideal for spreading large-scale public data collection across many addresses — while sticky sessions keep the same IP for up to around 24 hours when you need continuity across several steps.

Both HTTPS and SOCKS5 are included on every plan, so browsers, scrapers, and command-line tools can all reach UK endpoints using whichever protocol they expect. There's no premium tier to unlock a protocol; you simply pick the one that suits your stack.

Lawful UK use cases

Residential proxies are a tool for lawful, ethical work. Whatever the task, stay within each website's terms of service and robots directives, and within UK and other applicable law.

• Checking localized pricing and promotions on UK retail sites in GBP.
• Tracking Google UK and other search rankings from a British vantage point.
• Verifying that ad campaigns render correctly for UK audiences.
• Market and competitor research across English, Scottish, and Welsh regions.
• Collecting public UK web data within each site's terms and applicable law.

How to buy UK proxies

You can start with 5 GB for $4.50 ($0.90/GB) and top up any amount later. Bandwidth never expires.

1. Create an account and buy a package from 5 GB. Card, Apple Pay, Google Pay, PayPal, Alipay, Binance Pay and crypto are accepted.
2. Open the proxy generator and set the country to UK, optionally a region, city or ISP, then choose rotating or sticky sessions and HTTP(S) or SOCKS5.
3. Copy the host, port, username and password into your scraper, browser or antidetect profile. The gateway is gw.nefo.net:9000; add -country-gb to the username to exit in UK.

Usage and the REST API are in your dashboard. The residential proxies page lists every package size.

Regional Pricing and Retail Monitoring

The UK retail environment is well-known for frequent promotions that may vary between cities like London, Birmingham, and Glasgow. British retailers—including Argos, Tesco, and John Lewis—are routinely studied to detect regional pricing shifts and promotion differences visible only to local shoppers.

Market research also covers listing trends and product launches across online sites such as Currys, ASOS, and supermarket chains. Classifieds like Gumtree carry city-specific offers, and price-comparison platforms such as PriceRunner are checked for discrepancies in advertised rates.

Mobile Research and Local Connectivity

Businesses testing user experience in the UK often focus on mobile browsing using local carriers EE and Vodafone. This is essential for evaluating how search rankings, ad placement, and app store listings appear to UK mobile users.

Regional variation affects mobile advertising effectiveness, with campaigns performing differently in areas outside southern England. Observing how promotions and listings are served on mobile networks is important for campaigns dependent on real UK connectivity.

UK datacenter proxies: cheaper, faster, country level

Datacenter proxies are the fast, low-cost end of the range. The United Kingdom is one of 75 countries we have verified by dialling, and the IPs rotate and are billed per gigabyte much like residential. What differs is what a website sees: these addresses resolve to hosting networks, so any target that scores the network behind an IP can tell. Targeting is country level, meaning you get a British exit rather than a Manchester one, and the per-gigabyte cost sits well below residential. Current rates are on the pricing page.

That trade suits Britain more often than you might expect, because much of what you check here is national rather than local. The VAT-inclusive prices on amazon.co.uk, Argos or Currys read the same from Leeds as from London, so a country-level UK exit is all the geography the job actually needs. Datacenter is the sensible choice for high-volume crawls of tolerant targets: open registers such as Companies House, ONS statistical releases, large retail catalogues, and your own British sites and uptime checks. Keep residential or mobile for the strict marketplaces and ticketing sites that inspect the network, and stay within each site's terms either way.

UK mobile proxies on real London modems

Mobile proxies are rented by time rather than by gigabyte, and they run on physical 4G/5G modems instead of a pool of addresses. You choose the country, the city and the carrier, and changing the IP moves your session to a different modem in the same place. Our British modems are London based, and the carriers that come up there are EE, Three and Vodafone.

Because those addresses sit on the same mobile networks that ordinary UK subscribers share, they carry the highest trust score of any proxy type. They are also the most expensive, which is why they suit a small number of long-running identities rather than broad collection. One practical note for Britain in particular: since the UK pool is concentrated in London, the city lock has little to choose between, so the lock that earns its keep here is the carrier lock. Pin it and a rotation keeps you on EE, Three or Vodafone; leave it off and you may land on any free London modem, on any of the three.

Static UK IP addresses

A static IP is one dedicated British IPv4 rented for a fixed period of 5 to 360 days, and it is not metered at all. The price is identical whether you move a megabyte or a terabyte. It does not rotate and does not change, which is the whole point of the product rather than a limitation of it. You pick the country, optionally the city and optionally the subnet range; each proxy comes with a username and password and both an HTTP port and a SOCKS5 port. The exact address stays masked until purchase.

The UK list runs to 15 cities and, unusually, reaches all four nations: Belfast, Cardiff, Edinburgh and Glasgow sit alongside London, Islington, Manchester, Birmingham, Leeds, Liverpool, Sheffield, Bristol, Brighton, Cambridge and Oxford. Most countries offer a capital and little else, so if you need an address that reads as Scottish, Welsh or Northern Irish rather than generically British, the UK is one of the few markets where you can choose it outright.

The rules do not change with the product. Stay inside each site's terms and robots directives, and inside UK law, including UK GDPR and the Data Protection Act 2018 wherever personal data is involved. A static IP is for holding a stable, identifiable address for your own systems and accounts, not for concealing who is connecting.

• A UK system or partner that only accepts connections from a known, allowlisted address.
• Long-running logged-in sessions on your own accounts that break when the IP changes.
• Tools, dashboards and APIs you operate yourself that pin access to a single IP.
• Work where a flat rental is easier to budget than metered gigabytes.
• Holding a Scottish, Welsh or Northern Irish address rather than a generic British one.
