Overview

Apiip is an IP geolocation API that returns detailed location data including city, country, timezone, and currency for any IP address. It offers a free tier of 1,000 requests per month with a simple API key setup. It is a solid choice for personalizing user experiences or implementing geo-based restrictions in web apps.

💡

Beginner Tip

Sign up at apiip.net to get your free API key, then include it as ?accessKey=YOUR_API_KEY in every request. You can also look up multiple IPs in one call using the ?ip=IP1,IP2 format.
