Proxies for ad verification. See what your audience sees.
An ad campaign looks fine from your desk and completely different from the country it targets. Residential IPs let you load the pages your audience loads, so you catch fraud, misplacement and broken creatives before they burn the budget.

- Residential proxies
- The core tool: a real IP in the exact market an ad targets, so you see the placement, the landing page and the price a local sees, not a version tailored to your office network.
- Mobile proxies
- For ads served differently to phones, a carrier IP shows you the mobile placement as a real subscriber gets it, which is often where fraud hides.
Fraud and misplacement only show from the target's vantage point
Ad fraud, a bot farm inflating impressions, a competitor's creative swapped into your slot, an affiliate sending traffic to the wrong page, is invisible from where you sit, because the network serving the ad already knows who you are. It shows you the clean version.
Loading the page through a residential IP in the targeted country strips that advantage away. The ad server sees an ordinary local visitor and serves what it serves everyone there, which is the only way to confirm your creative actually ran, in the right place, at the right price.
Coverage is the whole job
Verification is only as good as the places you can check from. A campaign running in forty markets needs eyes in forty markets, and a proxy network that reaches them all is what turns spot-checking into real coverage.
This is a reading task, not a bulk one, so it rarely needs heavy rotation. A handful of clean residential exits per market, used to load and screenshot the real placements, is usually the entire requirement.
FAQ
Ad verification questions, answered
Why do I need a proxy to check my own ads?
Because ad servers tailor what they show based on who is asking. From your own network you see a clean version; a residential IP in the targeted market shows you what the audience actually gets, which is where fraud and misplacement surface.
What kind of proxy is best for ad verification?
Residential, in the exact country the ad targets, so the placement and landing page match what a local sees. Add mobile where the campaign serves differently to phones. Datacenter IPs are too easily identified to see the real placement.
How many proxies do I need?
Fewer than a scraping job. Verification is a reading task, so a handful of clean exits per market you advertise in is usually enough to load and screenshot the real placements.
