Per-IP request caps
One IP making more than a few dozen requests per minute is throttled to captcha or zero results. A 90M+ rotating pool spreads load so each IP issues one or two requests per hour.

Proxies for TikTok Scraping at Scale
TikTok's rate limits put a hard ceiling on any scraper that operates from a single IP, ASN or datacenter range. Real mobile carrier IPs and Tier-1 residential routes sidestep that ceiling — every request lands as a separate, geographically-plausible viewer. Scrape videos, comments, hashtags, creators and TikTok Shop at production volumes.

Use case
Where TikTok scraping breaks without good proxies
TikTok's edge enforces three independent rate-limit layers. Without rotating residential or mobile IPs, you hit at least one within minutes.
Per-ASN blanket blocks
Known datacenter ASNs are filtered at the edge before the request reaches a backend. Tier-1 ISP residential and real 4G/5G mobile ASNs read as normal consumer traffic.
Geographic mismatch
For You is personalised by IP geo. Scraping a "US trending" snapshot from a non-US datacenter returns a feed that no real US user sees. Country, city and ASN targeting fix that.
Session fingerprinting
Comment and creator-page scrapers need session continuity across paginated calls. Mid-scrape IP rotation breaks the cursor and yields duplicate or missing data. Sticky sessions hold one IP through the full crawl.
Mobile-only endpoints
Some TikTok endpoints return richer payloads to mobile clients than web clients. Carrier IPs on Mobile Residential reach those endpoints reliably.
TikTok Shop pricing data
TikTok Shop product and pricing data is geo-conditioned. Platinum's city-level US targeting reproduces a specific shopper's regional pricing and shipping options.

Platinum Residential — $3.00/GB
Default for hashtag, sound, comment and bulk scraping. Tier-1 ISP residential with city- and ASN-level targeting. Best value when volume rises and per-GB pricing dominates.
Budget Unlimited Residential — from $51.99/mo
Use when bulk hashtag and trending-feed crawls would otherwise burn through per-GB metering. Port-based, 200+ countries.
IPv6 Proxies — $0.05/thread/day
Maximum concurrency at the lowest unit cost. Fits high-RPS TikTok API scrapers feeding downstream analytics.

FAQ
Frequently asked questions
Why does TikTok scraping need residential or mobile proxies?
TikTok's web and mobile endpoints aggressively rate-limit per-IP and per-ASN. Datacenter ranges are blocked at the edge — most return a captcha or an empty feed within seconds. Real residential IPs and 4G/5G mobile carrier IPs pass that filter.
What can I scrape from TikTok with these proxies?
Public data: video metadata, view/like counts, comments, captions, hashtag pages, creator profiles, follower lists, sound pages, For You feeds for a given geo, TikTok Shop listings and TikTok Ads transparency data. Use must comply with TikTok's Terms of Service in your jurisdiction.
Mobile or residential — which is better for TikTok?
Mobile is the better fingerprint because TikTok is mobile-first. Use Mobile Residential for creator and feed scraping. For hashtag and TikTok Shop bulk scraping, Platinum at $3.00/GB is more cost-effective.
How do sticky sessions help TikTok scraping?
For You and search are personalised by IP and session. To capture a creator's reach pattern or a hashtag's regional spread, a sticky session keeps the scrape resolving from one IP. Up to 60h on Platinum, configurable on Mobile.
Can I scrape TikTok in a specific country or city?
Yes. Country targeting on every plan across 200+ countries. Platinum adds city- and ASN-level targeting so you can reproduce a New York viewer's For You feed or a Tokyo viewer's trending sounds.
Does this work with TikTok-Api, TikAPI and Playwright?
Yes. Standard HTTP/HTTPS/SOCKS5 with user:pass auth. Any TikTok scraping library that takes a proxy URL works — TikTok-Api, TikAPI, Bytego, Playwright/Puppeteer scrapers, Apify/Crawlee actors.
