Servers
FreeIPAPI provides servers across the globe to ensure low latency and high availability.
Free Servers
Our free servers are networked under free.freeipapi.com and are available for everyone to use.
Rate limits will apply to the free servers.
Paid Servers
Here are the list of our servers for the paid plans:
| Server Name | Hostname | Location |
|---|---|---|
| US | us.freeipapi.com | United States |
| DE | de.freeipapi.com | Germany |
Authentication
Authentication is only required for the PAID and Unlimited subscriptions. If you’re using our FREE version, you don’t need authentication.
To send unlimited API requests, you can either whitelist your Domain or IP address in the dashboard after subscribing to the unlimited plan or use an API Key.
To use an API Key, you need to first subscribe to the Unlimited plan and then generate an API Key in the dashboard.
Then you will need to send the API Key in the header of your requests as Bearer token.
| Header | Type | Example |
|---|---|---|
| Authorization | Bearer | Authorization: Bearer TOKEN |
