Proxies are the first thing an affiliate buys and the first cause of bans nobody suspects. Account "linked and banned" even though the anti-detect is paid for and the creatives are clean? Nine times out of ten the IP is to blame: a datacenter address on an ad account, one proxy shared by five profiles, or a geo that does not match the profile. Here is how mobile proxies differ from residential and ISP, which criteria to compare them by, and which of 10 services to pick for Facebook farming, launching, TikTok and scraping, with prices from official sites as of September 2026.
What proxies are for in affiliate marketing
A proxy is an intermediary server your browser goes through: the platform sees the proxy IP, not yours. In affiliate marketing proxies solve three problems:
- Account isolation. Facebook, TikTok and Google link ad accounts by IP. One address on several profiles and the whole batch goes down after the first ban. "One profile, one IP" only works together with an anti-detect browser; we covered browser fingerprints in the anti-detect browsers article.
- Geo. To run ads on Germany the account must "live" in Germany: IP, timezone, language. The proxy sets the first, the anti-detect derives the rest.
- Trust. Platforms score an IP by its history: home and mobile addresses are trusted, server ones are suspicious. The proxy type decides whether an account survives its first week.
Proxy types: mobile, residential, ISP and datacenter
Four proxy types and what each is for (Russian) · click to enlarge
Mobile 4G/5G proxies
An IP of a real mobile carrier. Thousands of subscribers sit behind one address, so platforms cannot ban by IP without cutting off a whole city. This is the most trusted type for farming and warming up Facebook and TikTok accounts. Sold in two models: renting a channel (one modem or phone, unlimited traffic, IP change by link or timer, from $4 a day) or paying per GB from a shared pool (from $2.20/GB).
Residential proxies
IPs of home internet providers gathered into pools of tens of millions of addresses. They rotate per request or hold a sticky session up to 24 hours. Almost always billed per traffic, from $0.30 to $2.20 per GB depending on volume and pool quality. Good for launching, checking landers and offers by geo, spy tasks and multi-accounting where mobile is overkill.
ISP proxies (static residential)
A home provider's address hosted in a datacenter: it does not change for months and is not flagged as hosting. A compromise between residential trust and server stability, for long sessions in ad accounts, e-commerce and accounts that need a constant IP. Priced per address per month, $0.75 to $3.
Datacenter IPv4 and IPv6
Server addresses: the cheapest (IPv6 from $0.02, IPv4 from $0.30–0.50) and fastest, but anti-fraud sees they belong to hosting. Not for ad accounts; ideal for scraping, checkers, SEO monitoring, lander tests and bots.
Criteria for comparing proxy services
- Billing model. Per traffic (GB) pays off with low consumption and many geos; per channel or IP with constant work from one address. Estimate real usage: farming one FB account burns 100–300 MB a day, launching with media several times more.
- Pool cleanliness. The share of IPs already blacklisted. Some providers filter the pool and state a clean-IP percentage; the rest you check yourself.
- Targeting. Country is the minimum; city, state and carrier ASN are a plus for geo offers.
- Rotation and sticky sessions. Farming needs IP change by link or timer; launching needs a sticky session so the IP does not change mid-work.
- Protocols. HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 are standard; UDP is needed for WebRTC and QUIC in modern anti-detects.
- Trial before paying. Most services below offer a free or symbolic trial. Buying volume untested is mistake number eight in the checklist.
- Payment. Cards, crypto, Capitalist: each service has its own set, and for a team this is often decisive.

How to test a proxy before buying volume
Five testing steps inside an anti-detect profile (Russian) · click to enlarge
- Take a trial. Every service in the table has a free trial or a $0.5–3.5 test package.
- Check IP and geo in the anti-detect profile with any public checker: country and city match, ASN belongs to a carrier or home provider, not hosting.
- Leaks. WebRTC and DNS return the proxy IP; profile timezone and language match the country.
- Blacklists. The IP is not in spam databases, fraud score is low. For mobile, repeat after several rotations.
- Speed. Ping under 300 ms, Ads Manager opens without timeouts; for mobile, a stable 10+ Mbps.
8 proxy mistakes that get accounts banned
Checklist before the first login from a new proxy (Russian) · click to enlarge
- A datacenter IP on an ad account — anti-fraud sees the hosting flag.
- One proxy on several profiles — accounts linked by IP.
- Proxy geo does not match the profile's language and timezone.
- Shared residential with a dirty history: the IP is already blacklisted.
- Rotation every minute while launching — the platform sees an IP change mid-session.
- WebRTC and DNS leak past the proxy — the real IP is visible.
- Switching proxy provider on a live account without a new warm-up.
- Buying "at 5 cents" untested — trial and checker first, volume second.
If an account still gets banned, do not delete the profile or change the proxy before the appeal; the procedure is in the article on Facebook ad account bans.
FAQ: proxies for affiliate marketing
Which proxies are best for Facebook in 2026?
For farming and warm-up, mobile 4G/5G with rotation by link. For launching from ready accounts, ISP statics or residential with a sticky session. Datacenter proxies are not suitable for ad accounts.
Mobile or residential proxies: which to choose?
Mobile is more trusted and suits accounts, but costs more and is tied to one geo per modem. Residential is cheaper, covers hundreds of geos and is billed per traffic: for launching, lander checks and spy. Many combine them: farm on mobile, work on residential or ISP.
How much do proxies for affiliate marketing cost?
Residential from $0.30 to $2.20 per GB, mobile from $2.20 per GB or from $4 a day per channel, ISP from $0.75 to $3 per IP per month, datacenter from $0.02 per IPv6 and from $0.30 per IPv4. Prices from official sites as of September 2026.
Are there free proxies for affiliate marketing?
Free public lists are useless: the IPs are blacklisted and shared by thousands. Free trials exist at ThorData, MobileProxy.space (3 hours), Proxy.Market (10 hours) and iProxy.online (48 hours on Pro), enough to run a checker.
How much traffic does one account need?
Farming one Facebook account takes roughly 100–300 MB a day; working in Ads Manager with creative uploads from 500 MB. Measure your own scenarios on a trial.
Do I need a proxy if I have an anti-detect browser?
Yes. An anti-detect spoofs the device fingerprint but not the IP: without a proxy all profiles exit from one address and get linked.
How do I check that a proxy is not detected?
Open a checker inside the anti-detect profile and verify: the IP matches the country, the ASN is a carrier or home provider, WebRTC and DNS do not return the real IP, the address is not blacklisted.
