How can I avoid being detected as using a proxy?

I hear what you’re saying having surveys flag you as a “proxy user” and banning your account is frustrating but there are some important things to understand so you can fix the real cause instead of just chasing “better proxies.”
 
Detection often comes from patterns, not just proxy quality—rotating IPs and natural behavior matter most.
 
Hi everyone, I'm currently using a proxy to complete paid surveys. I've tried most residential and mobile proxies like soax, iproyal, 9proxy, etc., but none of them work very well. I'm always detected using a proxy, resulting in my account being banned. Is the root cause here the "quality" of the proxy? Are there any websites with good proxies that won't be detected?

Thank you.
use a real mobile proxy from a real device, and rotate your IP between each session.
 
Choose a high-quality proxy service, use it in conjunction with a VPN, connect via common ports like 443, clear browser cookies/cache, disable WebRTC, turn off location services/autofill, avoid logging into personal accounts when using a proxy, and use anti-fingerprinting tools, as websites detect proxies through IP address, cookies, browsing history, and browser fingerprints.
 
The problem is shared pools. All those providers rotate the same IPs across thousands of users - survey sites track IP history and flag anything that's been used before.
For proper work you need dedicated IPs that aren't recycled. Look into SIM-based mobile proxies where you're the only user on that IP and so that you can rotate it freely etc.
 
Honestly, it’s usually not just the proxy. Survey sites care way more about overall consistency than whether the IP is “premium” or not. If your IP, browser fingerprint, device info, and behavior don’t line up like a real user, you’ll get flagged no matter what provider you use.

In practice, the issue is almost never just the proxy. Survey platforms analyze the full picture: the IP, its history, browser fingerprint, and user behavior.

Even residential or mobile proxies can be detected if the IP is already burned or if the environment doesn’t match (language, timezone, WebRTC, DNS, etc.). That’s why it’s important to check for leaks on sites like BrowserLeaks and work only with reliable, trusted proxy providers.

Another critical point is shared proxies. For survey platforms, IPs reused by multiple users are quickly flagged and banned. That’s why mobile proxies are usually recommended, since you can rotate the IP frequently and reduce reuse.

If you’re being blocked across all providers, the bottleneck is most likely the environment or fingerprint rather than the proxy itself.
 
Quality matters. Check your IP on PixelScan, if it shows datacenter or proxy flag that's your problem.
Just don't use the proxies from the post above, they're not great haha
 
root cause here is not the provider tbh. surveys flag you when you show up as a “new person” every session. pick one country + one city and stick to it, use sticky/session so you’re not rotating all the time (only swap ip if it dies), and if you can, keep the same isp/carrier.

i run soax fine when i keep geo + session stable. there’s no “magic undetectable proxy” if your setup keeps jumping around.
 
The issue is that those popular proxy services reuse their IP addresses way too much, so the survey sites already know they are fake, you need to switch to a static ISP proxy instead, because it looks exactly like a real home internet connection that doesn't change every five minutes.
 
anti. fingerprint will remove your all problems becuz mostly they are detected by. systems. first so that's why.

Doubt that. If IP isn't listed in black lists - chance are it's "good enough". OP clearly has a problem with his machine setup.
I'd suggest using free version of popular anti-detect browsers.

Thanks for your feedback. I don't think the problem lies with the device configuration, because I'm using multilogin and gologin to mask my fingerprint.
 
it’s not the proxy brand, it’s the entire fingerprint and behavior stack—survey platforms correlate IP reputation, ASN patterns, browser/OS fingerprints, device history, timing, and response behavior, so no “undetectable” proxy exists and rotating residential/mobile pools just trips more flags. If you want stability, stop chasing magic proxies and either operate from a consistent, legitimate device/IP with human-like behavior or accept that paid survey sites are explicitly built to block proxy-based participation.
 
you need the integrate with antidetect browser this
 
Most of the Offerwalls check the TC/IP Value if it fit to your setup.
 
If you want to use a secure and reliable proxy, you won't use a "proxy" :)

So what do you need to do?

Like this: unplug the modem ethernet cable from your computer, then activate the "USB ethernet connection" from the settings menu on your phone and connect your phone to your computer via USB. Then turn on your phone's mobile data, and there you have it, the real, undetectable, and most reliable IP address. Put your phone in airplane mode and constantly change your IP address.
