# Proxies (/introduction/essentials/proxies)



## Proxy Infrastructure

OnlyFans API leverages an advanced proxy architecture to ensure high-availability connections and robust security. Our infrastructure automatically manages dedicated proxy assignments for each account, providing enterprise-grade reliability and performance.

### Built-in Proxy System (Recommended)

We provide a sophisticated proxy management system at no additional cost:

* **Dedicated Mobile IP**: Each connected account gets its own exclusive mobile proxy IP
* **Intelligent Routing**: Advanced traffic routing optimized for OnlyFans platform
* **Geographic Distribution**: Choose your preferred proxy country during setup (currently US and UK)
* **Zero Configuration**: Everything is handled automatically

  Other proxy countries (DE, FR, IT) have been temporarily removed due to OnlyFans restrictions. Only US and UK proxies are currently available.

### Custom Proxy Integration

For organizations with existing proxy infrastructure:

1. Select "Use custom proxy" during account configuration
2. Configure your proxy details:
   * Host
   * Port
   * Username (if required)
   * Password (if required)

### Technical Requirements

Custom proxy configurations must meet these specifications:

* **IP Exclusivity**: Dedicated, non-shared IP address per account
* **Network Type**: Mobile or residential IP ranges (datacenter IPs not supported)
* **Geolocation**: IP geolocation matching historical access patterns
* **Protocol Support**: HTTP/HTTPS protocols

### Best Practices

* Maintain consistent geolocation patterns
* Use the same proxy consistently for each account
* Monitor proxy health metrics
* Contact support if you experience connection issues
