FAQ
What is an IP address?
A number that identifies your connection on the internet. Websites, APIs and payment providers see it with every request you make.
How accurate is IP location?
Country is usually right; the city is often only approximate and can point to your provider's data center, especially on mobile networks and VPNs.
Why do developers need this?
To check which IP your server or office calls out from (for API allow-lists), to see where a webhook came from, or to debug geo-blocking and fraud rules.
