Quick answer

How do I set up proxies from AsiaProxies?

To set up AsiaProxies proxies, point your tool to gw.asiaproxies.com on port 7777 for HTTP or 7778 for SOCKS5. Then log in with your dashboard username and password. You choose the country, city and session inside the username. Residential traffic costs from $0.50/GB, with no KYC and payment in crypto. Setup takes a few minutes.

How do I get from purchase to first request?

These five steps take a few minutes after your crypto payment confirms.

  1. Buy a pack

    Choose a residential pack, a dedicated port or mobile data on the pricing page. Pay in USDT, BTC, ETH, USDC, LTC or SOL.

  2. Copy your credentials

    Open the dashboard and copy your proxy username and password. Keep them private.

  3. Build the username

    Add the country code, and optionally a city, session ID and TTL, using the template USERNAME-country-{cc}-city-{city}-session-{id}-ttl-{minutes}.

  4. Configure your tool

    Enter host gw.asiaproxies.com and port 7777 (HTTP) or 7778 (SOCKS5) in your tool.

  5. Test the exit IP

    Request https://ipinfo.io/json through the proxy. The country and city in the reply should match your settings.

How does the targeting syntax work?

You control the exit IP through the parts of the username. The template is USERNAME-country-{cc}-city-{city}-session-{id}-ttl-{minutes}.

PartWhat it doesExample
country-{cc}Two-letter country code of the exit IPcountry-jp, country-in, country-id
city-{city}City of the exit IP, as listed in your dashboard. Leave it out for any city.city-tokyo, city-jakarta
session-{id}Any short string. The same ID keeps the same IP.session-a1b2c3
ttl-{minutes}Length of the sticky session in minutes (up to 60 minutes)ttl-10, ttl-30

Leave out the session and ttl parts to get a new IP on every request. The dashboard can build the exact username for you.

Common codes in East Asia are jp Japan, kr South Korea, hk Hong Kong and tw Taiwan. In South-East Asia, use id Indonesia, vn Vietnam, ph Philippines, th Thailand, sg Singapore and my Malaysia. Use in for India and au for Australia. The locations page lists every country.

How do I use the proxies with cURL?

Use -x for the proxy address and -U for the username and password. For SOCKS5, use --socks5-hostname, so DNS lookups also happen in the target country.

cURL: rotating, sticky and SOCKS5
# Username template: USERNAME-country-{cc}-city-{city}-session-{id}-ttl-{minutes}

# 1. Rotating Korean IP (new IP on each request)
curl -x "http://gw.asiaproxies.com:7777" \
  -U "USERNAME-country-kr:PASSWORD" https://ipinfo.io/json

# 2. Sticky IP in Tokyo for 30 minutes
curl -x "http://gw.asiaproxies.com:7777" \
  -U "USERNAME-country-jp-city-tokyo-session-a1b2c3-ttl-30:PASSWORD" \
  https://ipinfo.io/json

# 3. Same over SOCKS5, with DNS resolved through the proxy
curl --socks5-hostname "gw.asiaproxies.com:7778" \
  -U "USERNAME-country-jp-city-tokyo-session-a1b2c3-ttl-30:PASSWORD" \
  https://ipinfo.io/json

How do I use the proxies with Python requests?

Pass a proxies dictionary to each request. The username template contains {cc}, {city}, {id} and {minutes} placeholders, so Python's str.format fills it directly. For SOCKS5, install requests[socks] and use the socks5h:// scheme.

Python requests: sticky session in Jakarta
import requests

HOST = "gw.asiaproxies.com"
HTTP_PORT = 7777
SOCKS_PORT = 7778
TEMPLATE = "USERNAME-country-{cc}-city-{city}-session-{id}-ttl-{minutes}"
PASSWORD = "PASSWORD"

user = TEMPLATE.format(cc="id", city="jakarta", id="job42", minutes=15)

http_proxy = f"http://{user}:{PASSWORD}@{HOST}:{HTTP_PORT}"
proxies = {"http": http_proxy, "https": http_proxy}

# SOCKS5 alternative (pip install "requests[socks]")
# socks = f"socks5h://{user}:{PASSWORD}@{HOST}:{SOCKS_PORT}"
# proxies = {"http": socks, "https": socks}

r = requests.get("https://ipinfo.io/json", proxies=proxies, timeout=30)
print(r.status_code, r.json().get("country"), r.json().get("city"))

How do I use the proxies with Node.js?

In Node.js 18 and later, use the undici package and its ProxyAgent. Pass the agent as the dispatcher option of fetch.

Node.js (undici): rotating Indian IP
// npm install undici
import { ProxyAgent, fetch } from 'undici';

const template = 'USERNAME-country-{cc}-city-{city}-session-{id}-ttl-{minutes}';
console.log('Username template:', template);

// Rotating IP in India: only the country part
const user = 'USERNAME-country-in';
const agent = new ProxyAgent(
  `http://${user}:[email protected]:7777`
);

const res = await fetch('https://ipinfo.io/json', { dispatcher: agent });
console.log(await res.json());

How do I use the proxies with Playwright?

Pass the proxy server, username and password in the proxy option of launch. Use a sticky session, so the whole browser session keeps one IP.

Playwright (Python): browse with a Singapore IP
# pip install playwright && playwright install chromium
from playwright.sync_api import sync_playwright

TEMPLATE = "USERNAME-country-{cc}-city-{city}-session-{id}-ttl-{minutes}"
user = TEMPLATE.format(cc="sg", city="singapore", id="pw01", minutes=20)

with sync_playwright() as p:
    browser = p.chromium.launch(proxy={
        "server": "http://gw.asiaproxies.com:7777",
        "username": user,
        "password": "PASSWORD",
    })
    page = browser.new_page()
    page.goto("https://ipinfo.io/json")
    print(page.inner_text("body"))
    browser.close()

How do I use the proxies with Scrapy?

Scrapy's built-in HttpProxyMiddleware reads the proxy key in request.meta. Put the username and password in the proxy URL. Keep the request rate polite and follow each site's terms.

Scrapy: rotating Thai IP for each request
import scrapy

PROXY = "http://USERNAME-country-th:[email protected]:7777"

class PriceSpider(scrapy.Spider):
    name = "prices"
    custom_settings = {"DOWNLOAD_DELAY": 1.0, "CONCURRENT_REQUESTS": 8}

    def start_requests(self):
        yield scrapy.Request("https://ipinfo.io/json", meta={"proxy": PROXY})

    def parse(self, response):
        self.logger.info(response.text)

How do I rotate the IP on a dedicated mobile port?

Call the rotation link of your port, wait a few seconds, then send new requests. The link is https://asiaproxies.com/api/v1/mobile/{port}/rotate?key=API_KEY. Replace {port} with your port number and API_KEY with the key from your dashboard. The host, port, username and password of each dedicated port are also in the dashboard. You can set an automatic timer there instead. Read more on the mobile proxies page.

cURL: rotate a dedicated 4G/5G port
# 1. Check the current IP (HOST and PORT from your dashboard)
curl -x "http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT" https://ipinfo.io/json

# 2. Ask the modem for a new IP (replace {port} and API_KEY)
curl "https://asiaproxies.com/api/v1/mobile/{port}/rotate?key=API_KEY"

# 3. Wait for the modem to reconnect, then check again
sleep 10
curl -x "http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT" https://ipinfo.io/json

Why is my proxy not working?

Most problems come from the username, the balance or a blocked target. Check the table, then contact support if the problem stays. Email replies within 12 hours, 7 days a week.

Setup FAQ

Do I need a different host for each country?

No. Every country uses the same gateway, gw.asiaproxies.com. You choose the country with the country code in the username, for example country-jp for Japan or country-vn for Vietnam. This keeps your tool settings the same when you switch countries. Only the username changes.

Should I use HTTP or SOCKS5?

Use HTTP on port 7777 for most web scraping and browser tools, because almost every tool supports it. Use SOCKS5 on port 7778 when a tool needs other TCP traffic. With SOCKS5, use socks5h in Python or --socks5-hostname in cURL, so DNS lookups also go through the proxy.

Can I whitelist my IP instead of using a password?

The examples in this guide use username and password login, because the username also carries your targeting settings. Check your dashboard for the login options available to your account. If you have a question about your setup, contact support, which replies within 12 hours.

How do I check that targeting works?

Send a request to https://ipinfo.io/json through the proxy. The reply shows the country, city and network name of the exit IP. Compare them with the country and city in your username. Do this test once with cURL before you configure a larger tool.

How many requests can I send at once?

Residential packs are billed per GB, so the number of parallel requests does not change the price. Keep your rate polite for each target site, and follow its terms. A delay of about one second per request is a good starting point for price monitoring jobs.

Does setup require KYC or an email?

No. You get your proxy credentials right after your crypto payment confirms. There is no KYC: no ID, no selfie, no documents. Email is optional; you log in with your account number. The acceptable use policy applies to every account.
