France Residential Proxies

Route traffic through real consumer connections in France. The coverage figures below are read from our supplier snapshot and refreshed daily, rather than being a number written into the page once and left there.

Targeting France

Targeting rides in the username, so switching market needs no dashboard change and no second credential. Append the country code to your username:

# Anywhere in France
curl -x http://USER-country-fr:PASS@gw-residential.node4.io:8082 https://api.ipify.org

# Over SOCKS5, same credential
curl --socks5-hostname USER-country-fr:PASS@gw-residential.node4.io:1082 https://api.ipify.org

# Hold one France exit across requests (pick any letters and digits)
curl -x http://USER-country-fr-session-482913:PASS@gw-residential.node4.io:8082 \

Requesting a city with no exits is refused rather than silently redirected, so you never receive data from the wrong place believing it came from France.

Cities with coverage in France

1558 cities are targetable. A sample is shown below; the targeting builder in your dashboard offers the full list, so you never have to guess whether a city has exits.

Why a France residential IP

France keeps a strong domestic layer above the usual internationals: Cdiscount, Fnac and Darty compete with Amazon.fr, Leboncoin dominates classifieds, and grocery drive pricing at E.Leclerc and Carrefour varies store by store. Vinted's French marketplace, SNCF Connect rail fares and French streaming catalogs complete a picture that is priced and merchandised for French residents and looks materially different from outside.

What teams run through France

Retail teams track Cdiscount, Fnac, Darty and Amazon.fr pricing, along with the grocery sector's drive pricing at Leclerc and Carrefour, a running subject of domestic comparison. Leboncoin is the reference for classifieds, vehicle and property data. SERP tracking targets Google.fr in French; ad verification covers major French publishers and broadcasters' streaming platforms. Localization QA is non-negotiable, since French sites are legally and culturally French-first, and brand protection monitors Leboncoin and Vinted for counterfeit goods.

France: coverage and targeting notes

France is unusually centralized: Paris and its region carry an outsized share of commerce, with Lyon, Marseille, Toulouse, Bordeaux and Lille as the significant secondary markets. Residential lines belong overwhelmingly to Orange, Free, SFR and Bouygues Telecom. Everything is in French, and French shoppers largely stay on French-domain sites, so testing from a genuinely French residential IP matters more than city precision. Country-level targeting is the sensible default; city targeting mainly serves grocery-drive and delivery studies.
