https://ipinfo.io/jsonThe networks behind Kota Kinabalu home IPs are those of Unifi, Maxis Home Fibre and CelcomDigi Home Fibre. TM's Unifi is the largest fixed broadband provider, with 3.229 million Unifi Home subscribers at 1Q FY2026; Maxis reported 813,000 home subscriptions at Q2 2026. A session can be kept on one of them with the ASN segment, such as -asn-4788 (TM Unifi). See ASN targeting for every number we list.
Kota Kinabalu is surrounded by places that geolocation databases sometimes report instead, such as Penampang, Putatan or Tuaran. A site that geolocates by IP usually treats them as the same market, but some delivery and search features do not. Set the browser time zone to UTC+08:00 for consistent results.
Collecting public prices or search results from Kota Kinabalu is a common business task; collecting personal data brings the Personal Data Protection Act 2010 into play. Marketplaces such as Shopee, Lazada and Grab price in Malaysian ringgit (MYR). Tax note: 8% service tax on digital services from foreign providers since 1 March 2024. Read rules by country before you start. This is not legal advice.

Crypto only (BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC). You top up the price of the plan you pick, never less than $25, and the plan is bought from the balance; anything left stays there. No KYC — no ID, no selfie, no documents. Prices in USD.
Kota Kinabalu uses Malaysia Time, UTC+08:00, like the rest of Malaysia. The IANA time zone database files Sabah under Asia/Kuching rather than Asia/Kuala_Lumpur. Both have the same offset, and daylight saving time is not observed. Local store hours and delivery slots therefore match Kuala Lumpur time.
It can. Penampang and Putatan are separate districts next to the city. Together with Kota Kinabalu, they had 731,406 residents in the 2020 census. Geolocation databases may assign IPs to these districts or just to Sabah. Check the city field of each IP before relying on it.
Telekom Malaysia runs Unifi fibre in Sabah and has internet exchange nodes in Kota Kinabalu. Maxis listed Kota Kinabalu among its first Sabah fibre towns in 2017. CelcomDigi also sells fibre in East Malaysia. TIME's home fibre is limited to Peninsular Malaysia, so it is unlikely here.
The 1 GB plan, at $1.88 (October 2026). It is paid from a crypto top-up of at least $25; the rest of the top-up stays on your balance and never expires. 1 GB is enough to test Kota Kinabalu on a few hundred pages of a typical target before a larger plan.
No. Banyan Proxies asks for no ID, no selfie and no documents, for Kota Kinabalu or any other city. You sign in with an account number, and adding an email is up to you. Payment is in crypto: BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC. Use still follows the Acceptable Use Policy.
