Kenya Residential Proxies and City IPs

Kenya uses English and Swahili and pays in Kenyan shillings (KES), and the M-Pesa mobile payment service is widely known. Kenyan IPs are used to check prices on shops like Jumia Kenya, Google.co.ke results and Swahili ads. For services aimed at East Africa, they help confirm that checkout pages match local payment habits.

Sites read the visitor's country from the IP and pick language, currency and ads from it. Connect from abroad and you will often see something different from what Kenya users see.

Connect to the gateway gate.proxymay.com:7000 and add the country code to the username. The password is your account's access token, and HTTP and SOCKS5 use the same address.

# new Kenya IP on every request
user-country-ke

# a specific city
user-country-ke-city-nairobi

# password
YOUR_TOKEN

The dashboard gives you http, socks5 and host:port:user:token formats to copy, plus a curl command that shows the country and city of the IP you were given.

You can target 2 cities in Kenya: Nairobi and Mombasa.

Write the city name in lowercase with spaces as _, for example city-nairobi.

For prices and currency, the country alone is enough. For local search results, map results and city-level ads, add the city. City targeting works with Rotating residential proxies.

By default every request gets a new IP. When a login or cart flow needs the same IP throughout, add a name after session-. The same name keeps the same IP for up to 120 minutes.

Session names use letters and digits, up to 16 characters. Give each task its own name and you can hold several Kenya IPs side by side.

• Rotating residential proxies: high-volume work like price monitoring, rank checks and ad verification. You pay per GB of traffic used.
• Mobile proxies: mobile app screens and mobile ads, on carrier mobile network IPs targeted by country.
• Static ISP proxies: managing your own accounts, allowlisting and checkout testing, where you need one IP for the whole month.
• Datacenter proxies: fast, low-cost lookups at volume on sites with light blocking.
