PhantomProxies

Live proxy checker

Check your proxy setup

Run a real HTTP or SOCKS5 connection check for your PhantomProxies account. Test your saved connection or paste a proxy string from your dashboard, including country and sticky-session settings.

Test your account connection

Use your saved account connection, or paste a PhantomProxies string from your dashboard to test its country and sticky-session settings. Sign-in is required for both. Each check makes one small request and uses a little bandwidth.

What would you like to test?

Uses Any country and rotating mode. Your saved credentials stay on the server.

PhantomProxies accounts only; third-party proxy URLs are not accepted. The test service sees the proxy’s exit IP, not your proxy password. Results are not saved by this tool. Testing another proxy?

Recognize your proxy format

These are placeholders, not working credentials. Copy the actual endpoint and protocol-specific port from your provider or dashboard.

HTTP proxy URL

http://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT

SOCKS5 proxy URL

socks5://USERNAME:PASSWORD@HOST:PORT

Separate credential fields

HOST:PORT:USERNAME:PASSWORD

For HTTPS destinations, the dashboard’s HTTP proxy can establish a tunnel using an http:// proxy URL. Do not change it to https:// unless your provider supports TLS to the proxy itself. Colon-separated credentials also need a protocol selected in the client.

Test one connection first

  1. Configure your client with the correct endpoint, port and authentication fields.
  2. Start with Any country and Random rotation if using PhantomProxies.
  3. Make a single request to an IP-information endpoint using a short timeout.
  4. Compare the observed exit IP with your direct connection, then add country or sticky-session settings as needed.

Follow the proxy testing guide for examples and interpreting failures, or open the integration documentation.

Interpret results carefully

A successful IP check confirms that request worked. Geography is approximate, latency varies with the route and destination, and a residential device can disconnect during a sticky session. A working proxy does not guarantee access to every website.

Keep complete proxy URLs out of shared logs, screenshots and browser address bars because they contain your password. Use the dashboard to rotate exposed credentials.
