Mobile proxies for social media management

Run brand and client accounts from real UK mobile IPs — the same kind of connection your audience uses on their phones.

Why social platforms treat mobile IPs differently

Social apps are built for phones, and most of their UK traffic arrives over mobile networks. Carriers share each public IP address between many real subscribers (carrier-grade NAT), so platforms see plenty of genuine users behind the same address and are usually careful about blocking it. Datacenter IPs get far less benefit of the doubt: they are easy to recognise and are often challenged or restricted at login.

A T-Proxy line gives your accounts an ordinary UK mobile footprint, on a carrier your audience actually uses.

What T-Proxy gives social media teams

Good practice for running several accounts

A proxy helps an account look like a normal UK mobile user, but it doesn’t replace good habits:

Plans

Fixed-term plans include unmetered usage for the whole term and are billed upfront, with no long-term contract.

4G suits most posting, replying and account management; 5G helps if you upload a lot of video.

Questions

How many accounts can I run on one proxy?

We don’t set a limit, but platforms notice when many accounts share one IP. Keep a small group of related accounts on each proxy, and give separate clients separate proxies.

Can I choose the carrier?

Yes. Pick EE, O2, Three, Sky or Lyca when you buy, and migrate the proxy to a different carrier later if you need to.

Will my IP change on its own?

It changes when you rotate it with the rotation URL or the API. A carrier can occasionally hand out a new address when the modem reconnects, so don’t hard-code the IP anywhere.

Do I need special software?

No. Any app or browser that supports HTTP or SOCKS5 proxies with a username and password works, and the OpenVPN profile (or WireGuard, on most modems) routes a whole device. The setup guide has the details.
