Japan residential proxies with city targeting

What are Japan residential proxies used for?

A Japanese residential IP is widely used to check yen prices and sales rankings on Rakuten, Amazon Japan and Mercari. Japan uses Yahoo! JAPAN alongside Google, so it is worth checking both sets of search results and ads. Japanese search terms give different results depending on whether they are written in kanji, hiragana or katakana, so the local page gives the accurate view. Point rewards and coupon displays in Japan vary by region and member terms, so checking the local page is especially useful. Tokyo suits the capital area, Osaka Kansai, Nagoya central Japan, Fukuoka Kyushu, and Sapporo suits Hokkaido.

These are local websites people often check through a Japan IP. The same product or search term can show different prices, stock, rankings and ads depending on the visitor's country, so a local IP gives you the page exactly as local customers see it.

How do you connect through a Japan IP?

Use the single gateway gate.proxyour.com:7000 and change only the username. The password is the token you saved at sign-up, and HTTP and SOCKS5 use the same username.

• Rotate on every request: user-country-jp
• Target a city: user-country-jp-city-tokyo
• Keep the same IP up to 120 min: user-country-jp-city-tokyo-session-a1
• Mobile IP: user-type-mobile-country-jp

curl -x http://gate.proxyour.com:7000 \
  -U "user-country-jp-city-tokyo:YOUR_TOKEN" \
