Frequently asked questions

Straight answers about what the checker can and cannot tell you.

How accurate is the “datacenter disguised as residential” verdict?

On our test set, datacenter IPs sold as residential are caught more than 80% of the time, because the ASN owner is usually obvious (Vultr, DigitalOcean, OVH and similar). Residential verdicts are more conservative — treat them as a screen, not a guarantee.

Why is the confidence only 70% for residential?

We do not yet license a commercial residential-proxy database. A residential verdict means the ASN looks like a normal ISP range and nothing suspicious matched — it is a screen, not proof that the IP is clean on every platform.

Does using IPASK guarantee my store will not be linked?

No. Platform linkage depends on many signals beyond IP: device fingerprint, browser environment, payment method, behaviour. IP is one of the cheapest things to fix first, which is why we start there.

Which platforms does this apply to?

The IP judgement is platform-neutral. Sellers use it for Amazon, TikTok Shop, Shopee, Lazada and independent stores. Each platform weighs signals differently — read the platform rules alongside our verdict.

Where does the data come from?

GeoLite2-City for location, IPtoASN for network ownership, the official Tor exit list, and our own rule engine for classification. Everything is queried locally on our server; the IP you paste is not forwarded to third parties.

Do you store the IPs I paste?

No. The list is processed in memory and discarded. Logs keep only call counts for billing. See our Privacy page for details.

How long does a license last?

30 days from payment. The key works repeatedly within your daily quota.

How do I pay?

USDT (TRC-20) through our payment gateway. The amount is converted at checkout. Your key is issued automatically once the network confirms the payment.

What if I exhaust my daily quota?

The quota resets at 00:00 (server time). You can buy a higher plan if you need more.

Can I get a refund?

Yes, if the license has not been used: see Refund policy.
