# Geo testing proxy for European cities > Test language, currency, consent banners and city redirects of your own app or site from home IPs in European cities. From $0.95 for 1 GB, no KYC, crypto. - URL: https://eurocityproxies.com/use-cases/app-geo-testing/ - Last updated: 2026-10-18 - Publisher: EuroCity Proxies (https://eurocityproxies.com) Before a regional release, check that your own app and site behave as planned in each city: language, currency, consent banner, store picker, delivery area and legal notices. **Quick answer — How do I test my app or website as a user in a specific European city?** Route your test browser, emulator or script through a residential IP in that city and check what your own service returns. With **EuroCity Proxies**, add `-country-be-city-ghent` (for example) to the proxy username; city targeting is included on every plan, from $0.95 for 1 GB as of October 2026, with no KYC. ## What should a city test cover? - **Language and locale.** Brussels serves French and Dutch speakers, Helsinki Finnish and Swedish speakers, Barcelona Catalan and Spanish speakers. Check the default your service picks from the IP and the browser. - **Currency and prices.** Euro (Bulgaria since 1 January 2026), złoty, koruna, forint, Romanian and Moldovan leu, Swedish and Icelandic krona, Danish and Norwegian krone, Swiss franc, hryvnia, dinar, denar, lek and convertible mark: confirm the right one and the right VAT in the total. - **Consent banners.** Banners and their wording can change by country under the GDPR and national rules. - **City logic.** Store pickers, delivery areas, local landing pages and redirects keyed to the visitor's city. - **Legal notices.** Country-specific terms, imprint pages and age gates. ## How do I set it up on phones and emulators? On an iPhone or iPad, Wi-Fi → Configure Proxy → Manual, with authentication; on the Android emulator, start it with `-http-proxy http://USERNAME-country-at-city-graz:PASSWORD@gw.eurocityproxies.com:7777`. Android's Wi-Fi proxy setting has no password field, and some apps ignore the system proxy. For browsers, use port 7777: Chrome and Firefox do not send a password to a SOCKS5 proxy. For scripts, the [quickstart](https://eurocityproxies.com/guides/quickstart/) has curl, Python and Node.js examples. ## Which session mode suits a test run? A multi-step test of your own app should stay on one IP: use `-session--ttl-`. up to 30 minutes (the IP can change earlier). Sites also read DNS, time zone, language and cookies; set them to match the market you are checking. With SOCKS5, use `socks5h` in curl so the proxy resolves the hostname, not your machine. ## What should I log during a test? Log the exit IP, its city and ASN from an IP lookup, the test time with time zone, and the response of your service. If a result looks wrong, check the exit first: a suburb label in a geolocation database is a common cause. The [verification guide](https://eurocityproxies.com/guides/verify-exit-city/) shows how. Test only services you own or are authorised to test. ## Geo-testing: FAQ ### Can I test location-based features that use GPS? No. A proxy changes the network location only. GPS-based features read the device location; use your emulator's location settings for those, and the proxy for IP-based logic. ### Can a team share one account for testing? Yes: Sub-users with their own credentials and traffic cap, one per client or project. Give each tester or project its own credentials. ### Can I allowlist my CI server instead of using a password? Yes. Username and password on every plan, or an IP allowlist (up to 10 IPs). Sub-users with their own credentials and traffic cap. API keys you can revoke at any time. ### Which cities should a European release test cover? At least one city per language and currency you support. The [country pages](https://eurocityproxies.com/countries/) list the languages, currencies and documented cities of each country. --- EuroCity Proxies: EuroCity Proxies is a residential proxy provider with city-level targeting across Europe, paid in crypto with no ID upload: home-broadband IPs billed per GB, with a page of local data for each of 103 cities in 35 countries.
