Acquiring
How are proxies acquired?
Participants share access to their IP
Evomi operates platforms that allow users to generate passive income by sharing their unused internet bandwidth. When users sign up and activate the service, their internet connection is shared securely with Evomi. This process is designed to be effortless and runs in the background, enabling you to earn money passively without active involvement.
Evomi's own and other Partner Apps focus on security and privacy, ensuring that user personal data is protected during participation.
Users are paid for their participation through PayPal, Gift Cards and some forms of cryptocurrencies.
Steps
Careful Customer Acquisition
- 01
Sign-up and Verification
When a user registers on the Evomi platform, they provide information on themselves. This information is important in making sure no bad-actors use the Evomi proxy network. The main information that is collected is name, email, and address.
We also collect the potential use-case for Evomi, whether that be scraping, ad verification, or whatever. Naturally high-risk/unethical forms of use-cases are disallowed, and every account agrees to our Acceptable Use terms when it registers.
KYC (Know Your Customer) is not required by default. Certain accounts, features or access levels do call for it, and in those cases we ask for verification through one of our secure partners before that access is granted.
- 02
Monitoring Usage
The Evomi proxy network provides our skilled network engineers with a wide range of tools to monitor the usage of our ethical proxies. This infrastructure has been battle-tested for multiple years and has been proven to be reliable.
At any point suspicious usage is detected, we are able to shut off access to the particular user in question. Whether it be a use-case we do not agree with or blatant fraud.

Monitoring usage? How?
Regular digital patrols
- Our network engineers regularly monitor users to ensure use-case compliance. Naturally users with a riskier use-case are monitored more regularly.
Automatic checks
- We have set up in place security measures in the case our proxies are used for risky behavior. Such as spam, or DDoS activity. This results in our system automatically suspending users pending network engineer confirmation.
Blacklists
- Evomi has curated an extensive list of blacklisted domains that have no realistic value to be targeting (other than fraud). This includes but is not limited to banks, governmental websites and more.

Swiss Privacy Guarantee
The Evomi team believes in the promise that all our products guarantee the privacy for their customers. Each and every customer can rest assured that their information is never sold or shared to any third party. This includes but is not limited to, account information, proxy usage, and more.
This promise extends to our nodes. All volunteers can be secure knowing their device information is private. At no point can any user check their browsing information or computer data.
