IP2Location™ IP Geolocation web service is a REST API providing a service to do a reverse IP location lookup for ISO3166 country code, region or state, city, latitude and longitude, ZIP/Postal code, time zone, Internet Service Provider (ISP) or company name, domain name, net speed, area code, weather station code, weather station name, mobile country code (MCC), mobile network code (MNC) and carrier brand, elevation, usage type, address type and IAB category. To search, submit a query string and a set of parameters to the IP2Location™ REST API service and you will get the IP location lookup within seconds. Search results are derived from the IP2Location™ index of over 4 billion unique IP addresses.

IPv4 and IPv6 supported.

Overview

All successful HTTP or HTTPS requests will return a response code of 200, together with the lookup information. Error code will be returned if an error occurred.

Each unit of package purchase entitles you to 100,000 query credits. If you need more credits, please add multiple units during checkout. Total credits will be the number of units purchased multiplied by 100,000. However, please note that only one unique API key will be given for each user account, even if multiple units are purchased. If you need a different API key, you should sign up using a different email account.

IP2Location™ web service is a RESTful API call for geolocation lookup. The REST API supports both HTTP GET or HTTPS GET.

Features
  • No database to download, to install or to upgrade in the server-side
  • Supports 25 different types of package queries with a different granularity of data.
  • Supports additional information (optional), such as Olson time zone, translations and so on.
  • Supports HTTP or HTTPS queries up to 100,000 times or 1 year (whichever comes first)
Examples

Example for querying an IPv4 address:

https://api.ip2location.com/v2/?ip=142.113.220.31&addon=continent&lang=zh-cn&key={Your API Key}

Example for querying an IPv6 address:

https://api.ip2location.com/v2/?ip=2607:f8b0:4001:c02::93&addon=continent&lang=zh-cn&key={Your API Key}

Example to check remaining credits:

https://api.ip2location.com/v2/?key={Your API Key}&check=1

New registrations for the IP2Location web service are no longer available.
We recommend switching to our new service, IP2Location.io, which is a fast and accurate IP Geolocation API tool to determine a user's location.
