Buy proxiesBypass aggressive anti-bot protections to scrape target data.
Your advantage
When running extraction scripts, security systems quickly flag datacenter IPs and block your webdriver. Mobile proxies provide a high trust score because their IPs belong to real cellular networks and utilize CGNAT technology. By masking your automation behind genuine mobile ASN ranges, your scripts blend seamlessly with regular traffic from authentic cellular users.
Pair your proxies for selenium with a headless browser and configure sticky sessions. This allows you to scrape an entire website section before triggering an IP rotation via API for the next domain.
Run reliable tests from genuine mobile environments.
Your advantage
Developers often struggle to verify localized behavior because standard server IPs trigger regional blocks instead of loading the actual website. Using mobile IPs gives your testing framework a highly trusted network identity. You can validate ad placements, performance, and user journeys exactly as real mobile subscribers experience them.
Integrate the proxy credentials directly into your Chrome driver configuration. Set up the exact selenium proxy needed for your target region and perform automated tests without manual interruptions.
Manage hundreds of social profiles without chain bans.
Your advantage
Social platforms aggressively track and throttle accounts managed through automated frameworks if they detect a hosting IP. Mobile networks grant your automation scripts reliable hardware-level isolation. Since multiple regular people share a single IP naturally, platforms avoid handing out hard bans, protecting your network of accounts.
Make sure to rotate your IP before initializing a new profile session. Combine mobile network access with an anti-detect browser to isolate fingerprints, effectively separating each account.
Secure limited items and track dynamic pricing seamlessly.
Your advantage
Stores deploy strict rate limits that restrict scripts attempting to compile inventory or automate purchases. Because mobile traffic enjoys an inherently high reputation, your bot interactions bypass rate-limiting firewalls much more effectively than typical residential proxies. You retrieve accurate pricing data and execute rapid actions without hitting immediate security walls.
Utilize a timer-based rotation to constantly refresh your network identity during high-frequency checks. This keeps your software virtually undetectable while polling inventory updates.

Popular questions about mobile proxies and our service.
Our platform offers two main infrastructure setups based on your project requirements:
Both plans include unmetered traffic, meaning you are not billed per gigabyte, but the speed depends on the cellular network capacity at that specific time.
Integrating our infrastructure into your automation environment requires configuring the correct protocol and authentication method. We support both http and SOCKS5 protocols, ensuring broad compatibility with various scraping frameworks and anti-detect browsers. When setting up a selenium proxy, you can authorize your connection using either standard username and password credentials or through IP whitelisting.
For stable web scraping or data mining, we recommend using the Regular plan so you can control the rotation programmatically. You can request a new IP address exactly when your script needs it by sending an API request to the rotation link. If you need any specific technical detail regarding configuration parameters, our support team has a target first response time of four hours to assist you.
We do not provide free trials or gratuitous access for our mobile proxy infrastructure. The cost of maintaining physical hardware, cellular subscriptions, and valid SIM cards makes it impossible to offer these premium resources at no charge. The minimum rental term for any mobile port on our platform is twenty-four hours.
However, if you simply want to test our dashboard layout or check basic system compatibility, we do offer one free server proxy. This datacenter connection can be claimed directly through the widget on our website. Please note that this complimentary server connection will not have the high trust score or the carrier-grade network attributes of our paid mobile plans, as datacenter ranges are easily detectable by advanced anti-fraud filters.
Yes, we have a structured refund and replacement policy in place to protect your purchase. If you request a cancellation within the first hour of access, you are eligible for a complete refund. If you encounter issues after this initial window, the refund is calculated on a pro-rata basis, deducting the cost of the time you have already used.
In the event of a technical malfunction or connectivity issue, our technical support will first propose a replacement port before processing a return. Any promotional cashback earned after completing a paid rental period is credited to your internal balance as promo credits and is not withdrawable as cash. We do not offer unconditional money-back guarantees that span your entire rental period, so we advise thorough testing during the first hour.
The pricing and performance characteristics are directly tied to how cellular networks operate. Providing a mobile connection requires physical hardware like racks of USB modems, active SIM cards, and actual data plans from telecom operators. Unlike cloud hosting providers that have fiber-optic connections and vast subnets, a cellular setup is restricted by the physical environment and local tower capacity. You are paying for the origin of the network identity.
Because mobile operators use Carrier-Grade NAT, a single public IP address is shared simultaneously among thousands of real smartphone users. Anti-fraud systems assign the highest trust score to these connections, minimizing block rates. The value lies in this trust and structural legitimacy, not in high-speed bandwidth or low latency.
While utilizing a mobile connection is a fundamental part of managing multiple accounts securely, it is only one component of a larger strategy. The carrier-grade network provides network legitimacy. This solves the problem at the intelligence layer.
However, platforms also track your browser fingerprint and behavioral patterns. To significantly reduce the risk of suspension, you must combine our service with a reliable anti-detect browser to isolate your digital footprint. Furthermore, your account behavior must look realistic, avoiding aggressive automated actions. You should also ensure strict geo-consistency, meaning your declared timezone, language, and currency match the physical location of the cellular operator node you are connected to.
Selenium was built for functional testing, not for stealth. It launches a real browser, drives it through WebDriver, and by default it does absolutely nothing to hide where the traffic comes from. So the moment you point your script at Google SERP, a marketplace, or a social platform, the IP address becomes the weakest link in the chain — long before fingerprints or behavior come into play.
That is why a working selenium proxy setup is two tasks, not one. First, the technical part: passing the right configuration into the driver so that every request — including DNS and WebSocket traffic — leaves through the tunnel. Second, the strategic part: choosing an IP type that antibot systems are willing to trust. Below we cover both, with code for Chrome and Firefox, the differences between Selenium versions, and the reasons mobile IPs behave differently from everything else.
There are three practical approaches. They are not equivalent, and picking the wrong one is the most common reason people see "it works in curl but not in the browser."
The simplest option is a launch flag. No extra import, no extra file, one line in your options object:
from selenium import webdriver
options = webdriver.ChromeOptions()
options.add_argument("--proxy-server=http://HOST:PORT")
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
driver.get("https://ipinfo.io/json")This covers HTTP and HTTPS in one setting and works in Chrome, Edge, and any Chromium build. The limitation: the flag does not accept credentials. If your endpoint needs login and password, the browser will throw a native auth dialog that WebDriver cannot click.
If you prefer the framework-native route, use the dedicated class instead of raw arguments. It maps onto W3C capabilities and works across drivers:
from selenium import webdriver from selenium.webdriver.common.proxy import Proxy, ProxyType prox = Proxy() prox.proxy_type = ProxyType.MANUAL prox.http_proxy = "HOST:PORT" prox.ssl_proxy = "HOST:PORT" prox.socks_proxy = "HOST:PORT" # for SOCKS5 endpoints options = webdriver.ChromeOptions() options.proxy = prox driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
Firefox deserves its own recipe, because it ignores Chromium flags and is configured through preferences. This is also the cleanest way to get SOCKS5 with remote DNS resolution, so your queries do not leak to a local resolver:
options = webdriver.FirefoxOptions()
options.set_preference("network.proxy.type", 1)
options.set_preference("network.proxy.socks", "HOST")
options.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_port", 1080)
options.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_version", 5)
options.set_preference("network.proxy.socks_remote_dns", True)
options.set_preference("media.peerconnection.enabled", False)That last line kills WebRTC. Skip it and a STUN request can expose your real address while every HTTP header says otherwise — one of the fastest ways to get a session flagged.
Most commercial endpoints use login:password. Three ways to handle it in a real browser:
options.add_extension(). Works, but adds a moving part to maintain.Fetch.enable with handleAuthRequests through driver.execute_cdp_cmd and answer the challenge programmatically. Native to Selenium 4, no third-party wrapper needed.Pro-tip: many tutorials still recommend Selenium Wire for authenticated tunnels. It is convenient, but it terminates TLS locally, which means your JA3/JA4 signature becomes the signature of a Python library, not of Chrome. On targets that fingerprint TLS, that single detail can outweigh everything the proxy gave you. Prefer whitelisting or CDP auth when the target is aggressive.
A lot of copy-pasted code fails simply because it was written for another version. Quick map:
| Version | How you pass settings | Notes |
|---|---|---|
| Selenium 3 | desired_capabilities dictionary | Removed in 4.x — raises TypeError |
| Selenium 4.0–4.5 | Options object, capabilities deprecated | Both worked, with warnings |
| Selenium 4.6+ | Options only, Selenium Manager bundled | No manual driver file needed |
Since 4.6 the driver binary is resolved automatically, so you no longer keep a chromedriver file next to your script or juggle Service paths. Pin your Selenium version in requirements and keep one configuration style across the project.
Assume your setup is perfect. The tunnel works, DNS is remote, WebRTC is off. On a protected target you can still collect a challenge on request one, because layer one of every antibot stack is IP intelligence: the ASN type, the fraud score, blacklist presence, and geo consistency.
| IP source | ASN type | Typical fraud score | Fit for automation |
|---|---|---|---|
| Datacenter | hosting | 75–100 | Internal tests only |
| Residential (other category) | isp | Moderate | Medium-strength targets |
| Mobile (carrier) | mobile | 0–15 | Aggressively protected web targets |
The reason mobile addresses score so well is structural, not cosmetic. Carriers run Carrier-Grade NAT: one public IPv4 is shared by roughly 500 to 5000 subscribers at the same time. Banning that address means banning a crowd of paying customers, so platforms answer with soft measures — a captcha, rate limiting — instead of a hard block. Reputation scoring also loses precision, because thousands of unrelated behavior patterns arrive from the same address.
Add historically clean ranges (mobile blocks were never spam or DDoS sources at datacenter scale) and honest geolocation, and you get the highest trust score of all proxy types. On the same targets where other categories drop below 80% success, teams typically report 95–99% with carrier IPs.
Selenium keeps state — cookies, localStorage, an open session. Rotating the address mid-session is a red flag, unless you are deliberately simulating a network handover. Two working patterns:
In practice this means your rotation should be driven by your script, not by a timer you cannot see. A rotation link fired with requests between Selenium runs is the simplest orchestration method there is:
import requests, time requests.get(ROTATION_URL, timeout=30) time.sleep(7) # let the modem re-register driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=options)
The network layer is one of four. Be honest about the rest:
Accept-Language, locale, and User-Agent must match the geo of the IP. A German address with an en-US browser and a Moscow timezone is an instant mismatch.Pro-tip: before blaming the target, verify the address itself. Open ipqualityscore.com, iphub.info, or Spur.us through the tunnel and confirm the ASN type reads mobile. If a supplier advertises carrier IPs but the lookup says hosting, that is substitution, and no amount of Selenium tuning will fix it.
OnlineProxy sells mobile ports — IPs issued by real carriers to real devices with real SIM cards, with a choice of country, city, and operator. Billing is per port for a period: 1 day, 7 days, or 30 days, with 24 hours as the minimum billable window. There is no per-gigabyte metering on any plan; traffic is unmetered, which means no gigabyte accounting rather than unlimited bandwidth. Prices depend on country and carrier and are shown on the tariff page.
| Capability | Lite | Regular |
|---|---|---|
| Port access | Shared, up to 5 users | Dedicated device |
| IP rotation | Automatic, every 2–5 min | Sticky, by link, by timer |
| Device reboot | Not available | Available |
| Support | Standard | Priority |
For Selenium the practical difference is control. Lite rotates on its own schedule, which suits short stateless requests. Regular gives you the whole device, so a login flow can hold one address for as long as it needs and change it on your command through a link — the behavior automation actually depends on. Both HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 are available, with login:password or IP whitelisting, plus an API for rotation and monitoring.
One free server proxy is available through the widget on the site, from a choice of countries. It is a different category and it is useful for one thing only: smoke-testing that your driver configuration, DNS, and auth work end to end. There is no free mobile plan and no free trial on mobile ports. Cashback is credited as promo credit to your internal balance after a paid rental ends, and refunds follow the refund and replacement policy: full within the first hour after access is issued, later minus the time used, with a replacement offered first when the issue is technical. Support runs around the clock with a target first response of four hours.
Wire the tunnel with browser options or the Proxy class, disable WebRTC, resolve DNS remotely, and keep one address per session. Then remember the formula: carrier IP for network legitimacy, unique fingerprint for browser isolation, realistic timing for behavior, and matching geo signals for data correlation. Any Selenium proxy configuration that covers only the first term will pass your local test and fail in production — which is exactly why the IP type deserves as much attention as the code.
