IPRoyal Lookup
Why Businesses Need an IPRoyal Lookup
IPRoyal’s ethically sourced pool—more than 32 million rotating residential IPs spread across 195 countries—lets any user slip into a fresh digital disguise in seconds, so teams that care about pricing integrity, licensing, or security need purpose-built detection to stay in charge.
- Global geo-spoofing allows customers to pop up in nearly any jurisdiction, undercutting regional pricing, streaming licenses, and compliance boundaries with a single click.
- Fraud camouflage thrives behind Pawns-generated IPs that rotate faster than static blocklists update, complicating account-takeover investigations and bot-farm forensics.
- Data distortion creeps in when pay-as-you-go sessions split traffic between masked and genuine identities, skewing everything from attribution funnels to churn models.
- Chargebacks & policy risk soar as sneaker resellers, ad-fraud actors, and gray-hat affiliates weaponize low-cost, high-volume proxies that stroll past naïve filters.
Unchecked, those blind spots snowball into mispriced offers, regulatory headaches, and needless loss adjustments.
How Abstract API Detects IPRoyal Usage
Static deny-lists curdle quickly, since IPRoyal refreshes addresses across dozens of ASNs every day; Abstract’s IP Intelligence engine continuously correlates live ranges, IPRoyal-owned domains, abuse feeds, and session fingerprints so you always see the truth in real time.
API request
GET https://ip-intelligence.abstractapi.com/v1/?api_key=YOUR_KEY&ip_address=45.38.57.108
Sample JSON (truncated)
{
"ip_address": "45.38.57.108",
"security": {
"is_proxy": true,
"is_vpn": false,
"is_tor": false,
"is_hosting": true,
"is_abuse": true
},
"provider": "IPRoyal",
"asn": {
"asn": 20473,
"name": "IPRoyal network partner",
"type": "hosting"
}
}
Layered intelligence—is_proxy, is_abuse, and provider—lets you trigger step-up checks only when risk is real, sparing trustworthy users extra friction.
Integrate IPRoyal Checks into Your Workflow
Dropping a single API call at strategic checkpoints shifts teams from reactive cleanup to proactive prevention, so risks never get to throw a party in your logs.
1. Pinpoint pressure points such as sign-up, login, payment, and any geo-locked content gate.
2. Add the call in code, drop-in snippets make rollout a coffee-break job:
Python
import requests
API_KEY = "YOUR_KEY"
def is_iproyal(ip: str) -> bool:
resp = requests.get(
"https://ip-intelligence.abstractapi.com/v1/",
params={"api_key": API_KEY, "ip_address": ip},
timeout=5
)
data = resp.json()
return data["provider"] == "IPRoyal" and data["security"]["is_proxy"]
Node.js
import axios from "axios";
const API_KEY = "YOUR_KEY";
export async function isIPRoyal(ip) {
const { data } = await axios.get(
"https://ip-intelligence.abstractapi.com/v1/",
{ params: { api_key: API_KEY, ip_address: ip }, timeout: 5000 }
);
return data.provider === "IPRoyal" && data.security.is_proxy;
}
PHP
<?php
function isIPRoyal($ip) {
$api_key = "YOUR_KEY";
$url = "https://ip-intelligence.abstractapi.com/v1/?api_key=$api_key&ip_address=$ip";
$resp = json_decode(file_get_contents($url), true);
return $resp['provider'] === 'IPRoyal' && $resp['security']['is_proxy'];
}
?>
3. Branch logic smartly, blocking or rate-limiting when is_proxy is true, stepping up to MFA when risk signals pile up, and waving low-risk customers straight through.
4. Blend context signals (device fingerprinting, velocity, behavioral heuristics) to keep false positives microscopic.
IPRoyal’s Footprint & Masking Features
Marketing copy touts affordability and an “ethical” badge, yet the stealth-friendly toolbox underneath forces defenders to rely on live intelligence, not yesterday’s blocklist.
- 32 M+ residential IPs refreshed via Pawns ensure a massive, perpetually growing address space.
- Rotating & sticky sessions let bots swap identities on every request or cling to a “resident” IP for up to seven days.
- Static ISP proxies marry datacenter speed with residential ASN trust—perfect for sneaker or ticket scalping.
Unlimited simultaneous connections plus SOCKS5/HTTPS support keep bulk scraping resilient against throttling. - Per-GB pricing dipping to $1.75 attracts gray-hat actors who churn terabytes during credential-stuffing blitzes.
- Friendly branding & KYC talk add a reputational halo, yet malicious renters still slip through—detectors must stay agnostic.
What Makes Abstract’s IPRoyal Checker Reliable
Fresh IPs appear in IPRoyal’s pool every day, yet Abstract surfaces them within hours by combining automated crawler feeds, ASN drift monitoring, and reputational heuristics.
- Continuous harvesting highlights brand-new IPs almost as soon as they go live.
- Abuse-signal fusion tempers binary proxy flags with context, separating a paying Hulu viewer abroad from a bot scraping four million SKUs.
- Developer-first tooling (REST, Webhook, SDKs) slips into any stack, so go-live happens in days, not quarters.
