Australia mobile proxies for testing apps and mobile ads on Telstra, Optus and Vodafone

Exits on the three Australian mobile networks, chosen with -cc-au and held for up to 6 hours with a session key; the ASN of each exit tells you whether it is Telstra, Optus or Vodafone. Mobile traffic runs from $3.99 down to $2.19 per GB.

The market

Australian phones get the faster connection

Ookla’s median mobile download in Australia was 122.20 Mbps at the end of 2025, ahead of the fixed-line median of 95.29 Mbps (DataReportal, Digital 2026). GSMA Intelligence counted 34.1 million cellular connections, 126% of the population. Phones and desktops were level on page views in September 2026, at 48.57% and 48.48%.

iPhones lead the mobile half: iOS had 62.09% of Australian mobile page views in October 2026 and Android 37.9% (StatCounter). When you test an app or a mobile site over an Australian carrier exit, start with the iOS build.

Carriers

Telstra, Optus and Vodafone in an IP lookup

Telstra and Optus run their phones and their NBN broadband on one ASN each; TPG Telecom keeps Vodafone mobile on an ASN of its own.

TPG’s NBN customers are on AS7545. Carrier keys exist only for the US, the UK and Germany, so an Australian login cannot ask for one of these networks, and the code below checks the carrier of each exit by its ASN.

For developers

Keep only exits on an Australian carrier ASN

Logins for Australia take the country key and a session key, ap_a1b2c3-cc-au-sid-…-time-…. Time is in seconds from 60 to 21600, so -time-1800 is half an hour and -time-21600 six hours; leave the session key out and each request may use a different exit. HTTP goes to gate.aeonproxy.com:7000 and SOCKS5 to port 7001, with the mobile login and password from the dashboard’s Mobile page.

import requests, uuid

GATE = "gate.aeonproxy.com:7000"
AU_CARRIERS = {"AS1221": "Telstra", "AS4804": "Optus", "AS133612": "Vodafone"}

def au_mobile_exit(want=None, tries=6):
    """a sticky Australian session, kept only if its ASN belongs to a mobile carrier (and the one wanted)"""
    for _ in range(tries):
        sid = uuid.uuid4().hex[:10]
        proxy = f"http://ap_a1b2c3-cc-au-sid-{sid}-time-3600:PASS@{GATE}"
        info = requests.get("https://ipinfo.io/json",
                            proxies={"http": proxy, "https": proxy}, timeout=25).json()
        carrier = AU_CARRIERS.get(info.get("org", "").split(" ")[0])
        if info.get("country") == "AU" and carrier and want in (None, carrier):
            return proxy, info
    return None, None

proxy, info = au_mobile_exit(want="Telstra")
print(info["ip"], info["org"], info["region"], info["timezone"])
# 1.144.XX.37 AS1221 Telstra Limited New South Wales Australia/Sydney

with requests.Session() as s:
    s.proxies = {"http": proxy, "https": proxy}   # the same Telstra exit for the next hour
    page = s.get("https://example.com/", timeout=30)

An exit is kept only when ipinfo.io reports an Australian address on AS1221, AS4804 or AS133612; the want argument narrows that to one network. For regions and cities, the dashboard generator lists what Australian mobile logins can get, where available, and the IP checker shows where any exit is placed.

Pricing

Buy Australian mobile proxies by the GB

The GB in one purchase set the tier, its rate covers the whole amount, and the traffic does not expire.

Traffic you buyPrice per GBFor example
1–9 GB$3.995 GB for $19.95
10–49 GB$3.4910 GB for $34.90
50–99 GB$3.1950 GB for $159.50
100–249 GB$2.89100 GB for $289.00
250–499 GB$2.59250 GB for $647.50
500–999 GB$2.39500 GB for $1,195.00
1,000+ GB$2.191,000 GB for $2,190.00

Each mobile tier costs $0.50 per GB more than the residential one. Current trial terms are on the pricing page.

Carrier IPs

What sits behind an Australian carrier address

IPv6 separates the networks sharply. APNIC counted 83.0% of Telstra users and 84.6% of Vodafone users as IPv6-capable in October 2026, against 2.0% on Optus. So when a target treats IPv4 and IPv6 visitors differently, a Telstra or Vodafone exit may get one answer and an Optus exit the other.

Australian addresses are shared by fewer people than in many markets. Cloudflare’s October 2025 study put Australia, with Canada, Europe and the US, among the places with the lowest number of users per IP, while Africa and South Asia had the highest. A carrier exit is shared all the same, so pace what you send through it.

Telstra and Optus put phones and NBN homes on the same ASNs, and Optus’s ASN still carries the Microplex name. A lookup that shows AS1221 or AS4804 names the carrier without saying whether the line is a phone. For a login flow, open a sticky session, confirm the ASN once and reuse that proxy URL until the flow ends.

Four checks for an Australian mobile job

Privacy and age rules for Australian mobile work

The Privacy Act 1988, overseen by the OAIC, covers personal information whether or not it is public. In a 2023 joint statement the OAIC and eleven other regulators said scraped personal data stays under privacy law and that mass scraping can be a reportable data breach. Prices, listings, rankings and your own app’s behaviour are the safer ground; names, photos and contact details need a lawful basis.

Since 10 December 2025 providers of age-restricted social media platforms must take reasonable steps to prevent Australians under 16 from having accounts, and on 12 September 2026 the maximum civil penalty rose from 30,000 to 60,000 penalty units. Our IPs may not be used to avoid those age checks. A platform that runs them can test its own age-assurance flow over an Australian carrier exit, as phone users meet it.

Australia mobile proxy questions

A proxy whose exit is a Telstra, Optus or Vodafone mobile connection in Australia, so sites and apps see a local phone network. You need it when the target treats carrier traffic differently from home broadband or servers: app checks, mobile ad placements and brand accounts on social apps.

We publish no mobile count for Australia; published mobile counts exist only for the US, the UK and Germany. The exits come from Telstra, Optus and Vodafone. Of the 12 mobile exits in our gateway sample of 26 October 2026, 7 were on Telstra, 4 on Optus and 1 on Vodafone. The dashboard’s Mobile page shows what is on offer.

Not with a login key. Open sticky sessions and keep the one whose ASN is the network you want: AS1221 for Telstra, AS4804 for Optus, AS133612 for Vodafone. The Python example does this with its want argument.

On 4G or 5G. Vodafone had closed its 3G network by mid-August 2024, and Telstra and Optus began switching theirs off on 28 October 2024. A login cannot set the generation, and IP lookups do not report it.

Buy mobile traffic in GB on the dashboard. Up to 9 GB costs $3.99 per GB; the rate falls tier by tier to $2.19 from 1,000 GB and applies to the whole purchase, and the GB never expire. Tiers and the free trial terms are on the pricing page.

As long as the session key says, up to 6 hours: -time-21600 is the most and -time-60 the least. A login without a session key may change exit with every request.

Residential, $0.50 cheaper per GB at every tier, suits catalogues, listings and search across many pages, with 194K+ residential IPs in the pool, October 2026, and state and city keys. Mobile is for work that depends on a phone network: apps, mobile ads and the social accounts you run.

Use the country key and check the city afterwards. The dashboard generator lists the Australian regions and cities that mobile logins can get, where available, and once you are connected the IP checker shows the state and city of your exit.

The Privacy Act 1988 covers personal information even when it is public, and the social media minimum age law requires platforms to take reasonable steps to stop under-16s having accounts. Stick to public, non-personal data within each site’s terms; our IPs may not be used to avoid age checks. Not legal advice.

Yes, for adult or business accounts you own or run for a client, within each platform’s rules. Hold one sticky session per account while you work in it, on an Australian exit.

An open proxy’s operator is unknown to you and can read or change your traffic. Its ASN also tells you what it is: an address outside AS1221, AS4804 and AS133612 is not on an Australian mobile network, and one on AS1221 or AS4804 may still be an NBN home line.
