Why Greece
Greek shoppers compare before they buy
Skroutz and BestPrice, both price-comparison engines, were the two most visited Greek shopping sites in September 2026 (Similarweb), ahead of the retailer Public, the classifieds site xe.gr and Temu. On the two engines the figures to watch are shop counts, lowest prices and where each offer ranks.
Computers produced 60.78% of Greek page views that month and phones 37.19% (StatCounter), and Google took 95.45% of searches against Bing’s 2.95%. Check desktop results first and mobile second; SERP proxies shows how.
Coverage
Athens, Thessaloniki and the regions
Geolocation databases divide Greece into 13 regions with English names, from Attica to the South Aegean, and our region keys use the same names without spaces. Athens gave 22 of the 40 exits in our 27 October 2026 sample and Thessaloníki 7.
| City (ipinfo spelling) | Region | Census 2021 | City key | Region key |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Athens | Attica | 643,452 | athens | attica |
| Thessaloníki | Central Macedonia | 319,045 | thessaloniki | centralmacedonia |
| Pátra (Patras) | West Greece | 215,922 | none | westgreece |
| Irákleion (Heraklion) | Crete | 179,302 | heraklion | crete |
| Piraeus | Attica | 168,151 | piraeus | attica |
| Lárisa (Larissa) | Thessaly | 164,095 | larissa | thessaly |
| Volos | Thessaly | 139,670 | none | thessaly |
Population: municipality counts of the 2021 census (ELSTAT, via Eurostat). The other sample exits came from towns such as Mytilene, Níkaia, Chaniá, Kavála, Pátra, Maroúsi and Grevená, one each. Region requests landed where asked 21 times out of 24 (ipinfo.io): of the Crete requests, one came back in Tríkala and one in Athens. City requests hit 19 times out of 24, but three Heraklion requests were placed in Athens, so check every Cretan exit before you use it.
Networks
Which networks Greek homes and phones use
OTE (Telekom), Nova and Vodafone together reach about 93% of Greek users in APNIC’s data. In EETT’s 2024 market review, OTE held 44.4% of mobile connections, Vodafone 34.1% and Nova 21.5%; for fixed broadband the regulator gives ranges, OTE 45–55%, Nova 25–35% and Vodafone 15–25%.
| Network | Access | ASN | Share of Greek users | IPv6 | In our samples |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Telekom (OTE), fixed | Home lines | AS6799 | 36.93% | 72.9% | 15 home |
| Vodafone | Home and mobile | AS3329 | 21.01% | 40.3% | 13 home · 2 mobile |
| Telekom mobile (COSMOTE-GR) | Mobile | AS29247 | 14.17% | 90.3% | 5 mobile |
| Nova (ex-Wind) | Home and mobile | AS25472 | 13.75% | 9.3% | 5 home · 5 mobile |
| Nova (ex-Forthnet) | Home lines | AS1241 | 7.38% | 76.0% | 5 home |
| Starlink | Satellite | AS14593 | 1.9% | 56.9% | 1 home |
| Inalan | Fibre | AS200736 | 1.15% | 31.0% | 1 home |
| PPC (ΔΕΗ) | Fibre | AS51505 | 0.45% | 82.5% | 0 |
APNIC Labs measured the user shares on 25 October 2026 and the IPv6 figures a day later, with Greece as a whole at 57.60%. Exit counts come from our own samples of 27 October 2026, 40 home and 12 mobile exits, and say nothing about how large each network is in the pool.

For developers
Ask for Heraklion, accept Irákleion
Region and city keys follow -cc-gr in the login, in plain Latin letters. ipinfo.io answers with accents and its own transliteration (Irákleion, Lárisa, Thessaloníki), so the check maps those spellings to the keys.
import requests, uuid, unicodedata
GATE = "gate.aeonproxy.com:7000"
# ipinfo.io spells some Greek cities its own way
SPELLINGS = {"heraklion": {"heraklion", "irakleion"}, "larissa": {"larissa", "larisa"}}
def flat(name):
plain = unicodedata.normalize("NFKD", name).encode("ascii", "ignore").decode()
return "".join(ch for ch in plain.lower() if ch.isalnum()) # "Thessaloníki" -> "thessaloniki"
def greek_exit(region, city, tries=6):

New brand names, old network names
Greek operators have changed brand names since 2023 while their networks kept the registry names, so a lookup on a Greek exit still shows the old brands.
Nova in place of Forthnet and Wind
EETT’s market tables list Forthnet and Wind separately up to the end of 2022 and one Nova from 2023. Both old networks still answer: Forthnet as AS1241 and WIND-AS as AS25472, which lookups now name Nova.
Cosmote folds into OTE
EETT records the absorption of the mobile company Cosmote by its parent OTE in January 2024.
Cosmote Telekom
The group joined the Cosmote and Telekom names into one commercial brand.
One name announced
Chief executive Kostas Nebis told the annual general meeting that Cosmote Telekom would become plain Telekom (Naftemporiki, 10 June 2026).
Telekom
The switch to plain Telekom was reported on 4 September 2026.
What our lookups say
All 15 Telekom home exits in our sample read “Ote SA (Hellenic Telecommunications Organisation)”, and so did the 5 Telekom mobile exits, on the network APNIC lists as COSMOTE-GR. Vodafone answers as “Vodafone-panafon”.
Islands and satellite
Starlink is Greece’s sixth-largest network
APNIC ranked Starlink sixth among Greek networks on 25 October 2026, with 1.90% of users, and EETT counted 69,005 satellite broadband lines at the end of 2025. One of our 40 home exits came through it. In a lookup it reads “Space Exploration Technologies Corporation”, while ipinfo.io places the line in Greece.
Most Greek broadband lines still run on copper. Of about 4.43 million broadband lines at the end of 2025, VDSL had 2.01 million and ADSL 1.27 million, against 1.07 million on fibre to the home (EETT). On phones the split is by operator: 90.28% of users on Telekom’s mobile network were IPv6-capable, against 9.28% on Nova’s ex-Wind network (APNIC).
On Lesvos, Chios, Samos, Kos, Leros and other North Aegean and Dodecanese islands, VAT is cut by 30%, to 17% at the standard rate, subject to conditions (PwC, September 2026). Crete is the only island region with a key; our country-level sample also reached Mytilene and Chaniá.
Data protection and gambling rules in Greece
Greece applies the GDPR together with Law 4624/2019, which makes the Hellenic Data Protection Authority the supervisor and sets 15 as the age at which children can consent to online services on their own. A seller’s name or phone number in a Greek listing is personal data even when anyone can see it, so leave both out of what you collect.
We found no Greek rule that registers, licenses or bans proxies or VPNs. Under Law 4002/2011 (article 52), playing on an unlicensed gambling site is an offence for the player as well as the operator. We do not support that use.

Greece proxy questions
With a Greece proxy your requests leave from a Greek IP address on a network such as Telekom, Vodafone or Nova, and websites answer as they would a visitor in Greece. Skroutz and BestPrice rankings, Spitogatos listings and Greek search results depend on that, and so does a check of how your own site loads on Greek networks.
109K+ residential IPs in the pool, October 2026. We publish no count of Greek mobile IPs; the 12 mobile exits we sampled on 27 October 2026 came from Telekom (5), Nova (5) and Vodafone (2).
Yes, where available. Regions: -st-attica, -st-centralmacedonia, -st-crete, -st-thessaly, -st-westgreece, -st-peloponnese. Cities: -city-athens, -city-thessaloniki, -city-heraklion, -city-larissa, -city-piraeus. In our 27 October 2026 test, ipinfo.io placed 21 of 24 region requests and 19 of 24 city requests where asked.
Patras is Greece’s third-largest municipality, but the gateway refused -city-patras and -city-patra in our check. Use -st-westgreece instead and keep the exits whose lookup says Pátra; one of our 40 country-level exits landed there.
Home lines on Telekom (OTE), Vodafone and Nova, plus a few smaller ones. Of 40 exits in our sample, Telekom gave 15, Vodafone 13, Nova 10 across its two networks, and Starlink and Inalan one each. You cannot choose an operator with a key, since those exist only in the US, the UK and Germany.
The brand changed in 2025 and again in September 2026, but the networks kept their registry names: OTENET-GR for home lines and COSMOTE-GR for phones, and ipinfo prints “Ote SA” for both. Treat OTE, Cosmote and Telekom as one operator when you sort exits.
Crete has a region key, -st-crete, although two of our Crete requests landed on the mainland. Other islands have no key. Country-level exits can still land on them, as with Mytilene and Chaniá in our sample, so read the region in each lookup.
Residential exits, rotated per request, cover Skroutz, BestPrice and search collection. For app and mobile-web checks use mobile exits; ours came from Telekom, Nova and Vodafone. A static ISP IP is for work where one Greek address must not change for weeks, such as your own accounts within platform rules.
Proxies and VPNs are not regulated as such in any Greek rule we found. The GDPR and Law 4624/2019 apply to personal data you collect, and playing on unlicensed gambling sites is an offence under Law 4002/2011. This is not legal advice.
Whoever runs a free proxy sees everything you send and rarely says how the address was obtained, so treat one as unsafe. Keep logins off it and look up the network of any exit first with our IP checker.
Use gate.aeonproxy.com, port 7000, a login such as ap_a1b2c3-cc-gr and your password, either in a browser proxy setting or as an HTTP proxy in code like the Python tab. You can start with a free trial; the pricing page lists its current terms. The documentation covers SOCKS5.
