Partners Integration โ
Many companies often ask, "Hey! How can we get on the logo list?" or "Can we do an affiliate link exchange?" ๐
To help answer these questions, I've put together this integration guideline.
Please take a moment to read it before reaching out.
If you still have any questions, I'd be happy to help. ๐
Partnerships โ
Before considering a partnership with Scrapoxy, it's important to understand how Scrapoxy works.
Scrapoxy isn't a typical proxy provider; it's a super proxy aggregator installed on the user infrastructure. It creates a pool of private proxies from their datacenter subscription, integrates them with proxy services, routes traffic intelligently, and manages proxy rotation to avoid bans.
Partnering with Scrapoxy involves a technical integration ๐ง that requires me to write a custom connector. It's a bit more involved than just a link exchange. ๐
INFO
If you're just looking for a simple link exchange, I hope to offer that in the future, but it's not available right now.
Proxy Providers โ
Why should I integrate Scrapoxy? โ
Scrapoxy bridges the gap between proxies and scrapers.
As your data collection infrastructure grows, youโll need more than a custom homemade script to manage proxy rotation. Advanced features like geotargeting ๐, circuit-breaker patterns โก, and smart proxy rotation ๐ become essential. Additionally, combining multiple proxy providersโsuch as ISP, Residential, or Mobile proxiesโwith your datacenter proxies from AWS or GCP requires sophisticated management. Scrapoxy handles all of this seamlessly.
Scrapoxy is designed for companies, not individuals, and it has been attracting more and more businesses because it is free and open-source. This mature project, established in 2016, is used by over 400 companies worldwide, managing hundreds of terabytes of data exchanged daily.
Scrapoxy supports major cloud providers and key proxy services, ensuring robust and flexible proxy management.
Why should Scrapoxy integrate me? โ
First, there are technical requirements that must be met before starting the integration.
Second, there are business-oriented considerations.
While Scrapoxy is free and open-source for users, it is not free for providers (with some exceptions see below).
Even though I'm passionate about this project and work on it full-time ๐ฏ, it typically takes me around 2 weeks to fully integrate a partner. Therefore, I charge the following fees ๐ฒ:
Company size | # of customers | Development Fee | Maintenance Fee |
---|---|---|---|
Large | >10000 | $5000 | $1000 |
Medium | 1000-10000 | $1000 | $200 |
Small | <1000 | $1000 | $100 |
The fee structure is based on the number of customers you have.
The fees are broken down as follows:
- Development fee: A one-time fee covering extensive development work, including meeting time, user engagement, and marketing efforts.
- Maintenance fee: A monthly recurring fee covering maintenance, issue resolution, server hosting, etc.
A 12-month commitment is required.
Exceptions โ
However, exceptions for a fee waiver may be made if your product brings something new to Scrapoxyโs users, such as unusual geographical regions or new types of proxies.
I can also reduce the fee if:
- You already meet all the technical requirements, and the development time will be short.
- You will develop the connector yourself following this guide (review and maintenance will still be required)
- You significantly contribute to promoting Scrapoxy on your end.
- You have an affiliation program.
Technical Requirements โ
Scrapoxy uses your users' credentials to connect to your proxy network.
Sticky sessions โ
Scrapoxy relies on sticky sessions, so your product must support this feature. This can be achieved through fixed server IPs, session IDs in the connection credentials, etc.
Subscriptions โ
You must provide a subscription for each of your products. Typically, this means 2 IPs for IP-based products and 2 GB for GB-based products.
These subscriptions must be valid for at least 12 months to ensure maintenance.
API โ
Scrapoxy needs to retrieve all connection information through your API, including:
- List of proxies
- Proxy IP and port
- Credentials (
username:password
)
Users should not need to enter this information manually; they will use a token (or login:password
) to connect to your API and gather the necessary details.
API Access โ
Users can easily access API credentials through your UI.
Refer to the documentation for examples.
API Rate Limit โ
Your API should handle at least 5 requests per second for each subscription.
Whitelisting โ
Your entire network must whitelist HTTP GET calls to the domain fingerprint.scrapoxy.io
. This domain is used to check the connectivity of each proxy and avoid routing traffic to offline proxies.
INFO
There must be no rate limit on this domain.
Other Types of product โ
If you're not a proxy provider but would like to integrate your product with Scrapoxy (e.g., an anti-detect browser or a scraping framework), I'd be happy to add an integration guide in the documentation.
I kindly ask that you write the documentation and send it to me.
Please check the examples here.
