Quick answer
Which proxies work for ad verification in Asian cities?
Load the publisher page or app web view through a residential IP in the targeted city, with the city's language and time zone, then capture the ad, its offer and the landing page. With Banyan Proxies each client can get its own sub-user, and the city is one username segment, from $1.88 for 1 GB (October 2026). No KYC.
What goes wrong with geo-targeted campaigns?
- The ad runs in the wrong city because of loose radius settings.
- The creative appears in the wrong language: English in Bangkok when the brief said Thai.
- The landing page redirects to another country's store or shows the wrong currency.
- A city-only promotion shows a price that does not apply locally.
Each of these is visible only from a viewer's location in that city.
How do I run an ad verification check?
Create a sub-user per client
Sub-users with their own credentials and traffic cap, one per client or project. It keeps traffic and reports separate.
Pick the city and locale
For example
USERNAME-country-th-city-bangkok, Thai language, Asia/Bangkok time zone.Capture evidence
Screenshot the ad, the landing page and the IP lookup, with a timestamp.
Repeat across cities
Swap the city segment for each city in the media plan: Chiang Mai, Phuket, Khon Kaen.
Which cities do agencies check most?
Media plans usually start with capitals and economic centres: Jakarta and Surabaya, Manila and Cebu City, Bangkok, Ho Chi Minh City and Hanoi, Kuala Lumpur, Mumbai, Delhi and Bengaluru, Sydney and Melbourne. Tourist cities such as Denpasar, Phuket, Pattaya and Siem Reap matter for travel and hospitality campaigns. All have pages on the city index.
What should I read next?
Set one sub-user per client from the docs, confirm locations with the proxy city checker, and list the cities in your media plan from the city index. Other jobs are on the use cases page.
What else do buyers ask about ad verification?
Can I verify app ads?
You can check ads that load in web views or mobile web through the proxy. For in-app checks that need a carrier IP, dedicated 4G/5G ports by zone are on the pricing page.
How do I prove where I was?
Capture an IP lookup from the same sticky session with the ad screenshot. Note that lookup databases can name a nearby place; see checking a proxy's city.
Can I click ads to test them?
Do not generate clicks on paid ads: it costs the advertiser money and breaks ad network rules. Open landing pages by their URL instead.
