Spur

Spur is a data provider focused on anonymising infrastructure: residential proxies, mobile proxies, VPNs and botnets. It was founded in 2017 and is based in Orlando, Florida.

Products The listed products are the Context API, Residential Proxy Detection, a Malware Proxy Feed, Geo-fraud Detection and on-premise feeds. The company says it holds the strongest database for detecting private residential and mobile proxies, naming services such as 911 and Lumi as well as Oxylabs.

Customers Target users are iGaming operators, sportsbooks, fintechs, PSPs, streaming services and cybersecurity firms. For a payment or betting platform, knowing that a visitor is behind a proxy helps catch location spoofing and account abuse.

Coverage and terms Coverage is global. Access is by API subscription or as an enterprise data feed. Which of these suits a given platform depends on request volume and whether the feed must run inside the customer's own environment, which the on-premise option addresses.
