Proxies for brand protection
Lowest rate for each. Every tier is on the pricing page.
Why brand protection needs proxies
People who copy your brand do not want you to see it. From your own network, you often cannot.
Infringers hide from the brand
Counterfeit shops and phishing pages often block known company networks, or show them a clean page. A residential IP is shown what customers are shown.
Every market looks different
Marketplaces, search results and ads change by country. A fake listing may exist in one region only, so you have to look from inside it.
Monitoring never stops
Listings come back after a takedown. Checking many marketplaces every day from one address gets that address blocked. Rotating IPs keep the checks running.
Which proxy for which brand protection job
Routine monitoring runs on the cheapest residential plan. Keep the stronger pools for the sites that fight back.

Check a listing the way a local shopper sees it
Set the country of the market you are checking, and hold one IP with a session so the listing, the seller page and the checkout are all seen by the same visitor. The example uses the Eternal Residential format and saves the page with a timestamp.
- _country-IT Two-letter country code
- _region- Region or state
- _city- City
- _session-case17 Same ID, same IP for the whole check
- _lifetime-10 Minutes to hold the IP, up to 60

What is brand protection with proxies?
Searching marketplaces, search engines, ads and social platforms for counterfeits, unauthorised sellers, copied content and phishing pages, from the locations where they are shown. It sits next to ad verification and price monitoring, and uses the same proxies.
Which proxy is best for brand protection?
Budget Residential for daily monitoring, Premium Residential for strictly protected marketplaces, Eternal Residential for occasional sweeps, and Mobile proxies for apps and mobile ads.
Why not check from the office network?
Company IP ranges are easy to recognise. Sellers and phishing pages that expect to be investigated show those ranges a harmless page, or nothing. A residential IP in the target market is treated as a customer.
Can I monitor marketplaces in specific countries?
Yes. Our residential, mobile and datacenter proxies support country, region and city targeting, so you can check each market from inside it.
Should I use rotating or sticky sessions?
Rotate on every request for broad sweeps across many listings. Use a sticky session, up to 60 minutes, when you document one case from listing to checkout and need it all seen from the same IP.
Is this allowed on VantixProxy?
Yes. Monitoring how your own brand is used is a normal use of our proxies. Attacking or overloading the sites you investigate is not. Every customer agrees to our Acceptable Use Policy, so VantixProxy is not responsible for its users’ actions.
