IPFighter Review 2026: IP Score, Fingerprint Tests and Proxy Tools
Open ipfighter.com through a fresh proxy and the first thing you get is a percentage. Next to it sits an IP Scoreboard with separate readings for TikTok, Google, Facebook, Instagram and other platforms, so you can see at a glance whether the address suits the site you actually plan to work on.
That score is the entry point to a wider kit: fingerprint and bot tests that run in your browser, a checker for whole proxy lists, a free proxy manager extension for Chrome, a free web proxy on residential IPs, and a hub of deals from proxy, VPN and antidetect providers. IPFighter started in 2022 as a simple IP checker, reached 50,000 visits within its first six months, and in 2026 grew into the diagnostic and deal platform it is today.
Check your IP on IPFighterHow the IP score is built
The score starts at 100% and every deduction is listed with its reason, so a lower number always comes with an explanation. The breakdown under the score answers yes or no for each factor:
- Non-residential IP
- Threat intelligence blocklist
- IP blacklisted (DNSBL)
- Timezone mismatch
- Language mismatch
- WebRTC leak
- DNS leak
On its IP Lookup page, IPFighter reads the reputation score in three bands:
The IP Scoreboard then weights these signals per platform. It is handy when one address has to serve very different sites: a connection can read well for one service and weaker for another, and the scoreboard shows that before you log in.
Looking up any address
The IP Lookup page takes any public IPv4 or IPv6 address and returns country, region, city, postal code and coordinates, the ASN and ISP, the connection type, proxy, VPN and datacenter detection, a threat-blacklist result and a reputation score. Every address also gets its own page, such as /ip-lookup/8.8.8.8, which makes it easy to bookmark or share a result.
IPFighter combines several geolocation databases with a live threat-intelligence blocklist. Its own explanation is practical: geolocation is reliable at country level and usually right at city level, and a city that looks off often means the traffic runs through a VPN, a proxy or a carrier gateway in another city.
Tests that run in your browser
The fingerprint, bot, DNS and WebRTC checks run client-side: they show what a website can read from your browser, and IPFighter does not collect or sell those results.
| Test | What it looks at |
|---|---|
| Browser Fingerprint | Canvas, WebGL, AudioContext, fonts, Navigator integrity, timezone against your IP, and a scan of open local ports such as SSH, remote desktop and SOCKS. |
| Bot Detection | More than 50 checks for Selenium, Puppeteer, Playwright, PhantomJS, Nightmare.js, Cypress and open DevTools, plus tampered Navigator getters. |
| DNS Leak Test | Shows which DNS servers resolve your requests, so you can tell your ISP resolver from the one your VPN or proxy provides. |
| WebRTC Leak Test | Opens WebRTC connections and lists any public or local IP they expose, together with a WebRTC fingerprint. |
The fingerprint page also returns a Browser Fingerprint Score, and for antidetect users it spells out the traces a spoofed profile can leave behind: Canvas noise injection, WebGL parameter mismatches, inconsistent Navigator properties and a timezone that disagrees with the IP.
Checking a whole proxy list
The Proxy Checker is built for lists rather than single addresses. Paste HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4 or SOCKS5 proxies in any of five common formats and it tests them in parallel, marking each one active or inactive with its exit IP, country and city. You can filter the results, copy only the working proxies, and re-check the list later.

The extension brings proxy switching into Chrome itself. You add proxies from the popup, pick one of the same five input formats, and can attach an expiry date and a note to each one, such as the account or project it belongs to. Switching is one click, and the popup shows your current IP and country.
Smart Rules add a bypass list: domains on it, for example your bank, always use your own connection. Advanced Protection keeps the browser consistent with the proxy by blocking WebRTC leaks and syncing timezone, language and geolocation with the proxy location. There are light and dark themes for long sessions.
The extension is free and open source, supports HTTP proxies, and applies one active proxy per Chrome profile, so running several proxies at once means using several profiles.
A free web proxy on residential IPs
IPFighter also runs a free web proxy that opens pages through real home IP addresses rather than datacenter servers. Type a URL or a search, pick a random country if you like, and toggle WebRTC blocking and timezone and language spoofing so those signals match the exit.
Each session is isolated, and its cookies, local storage and cache are cleared when it ends. It suits quick private browsing and unblocking; for automation or many accounts, IPFighter points users to dedicated residential proxies.
Deals from proxy, VPN and antidetect providers
The other half of IPFighter is its deal hub. The Coupons and Hot Deals pages collect discount codes from proxy, VPN and antidetect browser providers, each showing the discount, how many times it has been used and whether it expires. Our Partners lists vetted services by category: proxy, VPN, antidetect browser, affiliate networks, anticaptcha and hosting.
PROXIES.SX is part of that directory, and IPFighter lists a code that gives first-time customers 15% off their first PROXIES.SX order. It pairs naturally with the score: route a 4G/5G mobile proxy through the extension and read the IP Scoreboard for the platforms you work on.

Questions about IPFighter
- Is IPFighter free to use?
- Yes. The IP lookup, browser fingerprint, bot detection, proxy checker, DNS and WebRTC leak tests and the free web proxy work in the browser without sign-up, and the IPFighter Proxy Manager extension is free to install.
- What goes into the IPFighter IP score?
- The score starts at 100% and lists each factor that lowers it: a non-residential IP, a threat-intelligence blocklist entry, a DNSBL listing, a timezone or language mismatch, and WebRTC or DNS leaks. On the IP Lookup page, a reputation score of 80 to 100% behaves like a clean residential connection, 40 to 79% may be challenged on strict sites, and below 40% is likely to meet CAPTCHAs or blocks.
- Which proxy types does the proxy checker accept?
- HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4 and SOCKS5, in five formats: host:port, host:port:username:password, host:port@username:password, username:password@host:port and username:password:host:port. It checks the whole list in parallel and shows each proxy as active or inactive with its IP, country and city.
- Can the Proxy Manager extension run several proxies at once?
- It applies one active proxy per Chrome profile. To run different proxies at the same time, install it in several Chrome profiles.
- Is there an IPFighter promo code for PROXIES.SX?
- Yes. The IPFighter coupons page lists a PROXIES.SX code that gives first-time customers 15% off their first order.
