Germany Proxies
Germany has the strictest data protection culture in Europe, with 17 separate privacy authorities and a population that actively blocks trackers and foreign scrapers. German proxies are critical for accessing idealo.de price comparisons, mobile.de vehicle listings, and Zalando inventory that serve different content to non-DE visitors. Many German B2B portals and government procurement platforms reject connections from outside the DACH region entirely.

}'Proxy types
Residential Proxies
Route through real home internet connections. Residential IPs are assigned by ISPs to homeowners, making them virtually indistinguishable from regular users. Best for accessing sites with strict bot detection.
ISP Proxies
Data-center IPs registered to legitimate internet service providers. Faster than residential with good trust scores. Ideal for large-scale operations where speed matters more than stealth.
Mobile Proxies
Route through real 4G/5G cellular connections. Mobile IPs are shared by thousands of real users on carrier NAT, making them nearly impossible to block. Highest anonymity tier.
Germany proxy questions
How many proxy IPs are available in Germany?
Spider currently has 14,001,558 residential, ISP, and mobile proxy IPs in Germany (DE). The pool is continuously refreshed to maintain high success rates.
What proxy types work best in Germany?
Residential proxies provide the highest trust level in Germany and work for most use cases. ISP proxies are faster and suit high-volume data collection. Mobile proxies are recommended for platforms that aggressively fingerprint connections.
How do I route requests through Germany?
Set "country": "de" and "proxy_enabled": true in your API request. Spider will automatically select the best available IP in Germany and handle rotation.
Is there a latency difference for Germany proxies?
Latency depends on your server location relative to Germany. Residential proxies in Germany typically average 150-400ms. ISP proxies are faster at 50-150ms. Spider selects the lowest-latency IP available in the target country.
Can I use sticky sessions with Germany proxies?
Yes. Set a session ID in your request to maintain the same Germany IP across multiple requests. Sticky sessions last up to 10 minutes, which is useful for multi-page scraping flows that require IP consistency.
