Bambi Proxy Documentation
Everything you need to know about SOCKS5 authentication, protocols, policies, and deploying your proxies
Bambi Proxy allows customers to purchase and use proxies secured with SOCKS5 username and password authentication. Authenticated proxies use the following format:
Bambi:Bambi@12.34.56.78:12345
How to Configure SOCKS5 Authentication:
- Log in to your Bambi Proxy customer dashboard.
- Navigate to Profile / Account Settings.
- Select Change SOCKS5 Login:Password.
- Generate a random username and password or create your own credentials.
- Save the authentication settings.
Do not use your Bambi Proxy account login credentials as your SOCKS5 proxy authentication credentials.
Once SOCKS5 authentication is activated, all applicable purchased proxies will require the configured username and password. Without valid authentication credentials, connections will be rejected.
1. Create Your Account & Accept Service Policies
Register your own independent Bambi Proxy account and configure your custom SOCKS5 Login:Password in Settings.
2. Choose Category & Enable Exclude Used Proxies
Select Premium Residential Proxies or Static ISP Proxies and keep Exclude Used Proxies enabled to avoid repurchasing prior IPs.
3. Complete Checkout via M-Pesa, Wallet, or Litecoin
Pay via Safaricom M-Pesa STK push, Bambi Proxy Wallet balance, or Litecoin (LTC) with automated allocation.
4. Manage Proxies, Notes & Replacement Timers
Add custom notes to purchased proxies, monitor the 3-hour Facebook Marketplace replacement timer, or use the 2-hour offline Refund check.
