EDITOR'S PICK
Ad verification has historically been an enterprise vertical. GeoSurf has specialised in this use-case since 2009. Bright Data and Oxylabs are larger, but GeoSurf is often recommended for niche verifications with non-standard geos.

How to set up — step by step

Baseline configuration to get started right after the proxy purchase.

1. Request the Enterprise plan

Self-serve tiers don't give enough IP-quality guarantees for ad verification. Get an enterprise plan with an SLA.

2. Set up zip-code targeting

For localized ads — zip-code accuracy matters. Bright Data and GeoSurf both support it.

It's a question of provider reputation. Bright Data, Oxylabs, GeoSurf are audited by major ad networks and have a track record. Smaller providers risk tainted IPs.
