Multilogin Tutorial: Complete Setup & Usage Guide 2026
Multilogin is the industry-leading anti-detect browser for managing multiple online identities with unique browser fingerprints. This Multilogin tutorial walks you through everything from initial setup to advanced automation, including proxy integration, fingerprint configuration, and team collaboration.
What Is Multilogin?
Multilogin creates isolated browser profiles, each with a unique digital fingerprint — including canvas, WebGL, audio, fonts, screen resolution, and dozens of other parameters. Websites see each profile as a completely different device, making it the go-to tool for multi-account management, affiliate marketing, e-commerce, and ad verification.

Proxy Configuration in Multilogin
Adding Proxies to Profiles
Each browser profile should have its own proxy for maximum isolation:
Profile Settings → Proxy → Add Proxy
Connection Type: HTTP / HTTPS / SOCKS5
Host: gate.smartproxy.com
Port: 7777
Username: your_username
Password: your_passwordProxy Assignment Best Practices
| Account Type | Proxy Type | Assignment | Rotation |
|---|---|---|---|
| E-commerce seller | Dedicated ISP | 1 IP per account | Never rotate |
| Social media | Residential sticky | 1 IP per account | Monthly |
| Ad verification | Rotating residential | Shared pool | Per session |
| Affiliate marketing | ISP or residential | 1 IP per account | Rarely |
| Web scraping | Rotating residential | Shared pool | Per request |

return response.json()
def start_profile(profile_id):
"""Start a browser profile and get WebDriver connection."""
headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {ML_TOKEN}"}
response = requests.get(f"{ML_API}/profile/{profile_id}/start", headers=headers)

return data.get("selenium_port") # Use with Selenium WebDriver
def stop_profile(profile_id):
"""Stop a running browser profile."""
headers = {"Authorization": f"Bearer {ML_TOKEN}"}

return response.json()Selenium Integration
from selenium import webdriver
from selenium.webdriver.chrome.options import Options
def connect_to_profile(selenium_port):
"""Connect Selenium to a running Multilogin profile."""
chrome_options = Options()
chrome_options.debugger_address = f"127.0.0.1:{selenium_port}"
driver = webdriver.Chrome(options=chrome_options)
return driver
# Usage
profile_id = "your-profile-uuid"
port = start_profile(profile_id)
driver = connect_to_profile(port)
# Now automate with full anti-detect protection
driver.get("https://www.amazon.com/seller-central")
# ... perform actions
driver.quit()

FAQ
Is Multilogin worth the price?
Multilogin is the most expensive anti-detect browser but offers the best fingerprint protection, most reliable browser engines, and strongest team collaboration features. If you manage high-value accounts (e-commerce stores, ad accounts with significant spend), the EUR 29-159/month cost is minimal compared to the risk of account bans. For casual use, more affordable alternatives like GoLogin or AdsPower may suffice.
How many accounts can I manage with Multilogin?
The Solo plan supports 100 browser profiles, Team supports 300, and Scale supports 1,000. Each profile can manage one account identity. For most multi-account operations, 100 profiles (Solo plan) is sufficient. Larger operations like agency-scale social media management or large e-commerce portfolios benefit from the Team or Scale plans.
Does Multilogin completely prevent account detection?
Multilogin significantly reduces detection risk but cannot guarantee 100% protection. Platforms detect account linking through multiple signals — IP address, browser fingerprint, payment methods, phone numbers, behavioral patterns, and content similarity. Multilogin handles the technical fingerprint layer; you must also ensure unique IPs (proxies), payment methods, and natural usage patterns.
Can I use Multilogin with any proxy provider?
Yes, Multilogin supports HTTP, HTTPS, and SOCKS5 proxies from any provider. Some providers (Bright Data, Smartproxy) have direct integrations for easier setup. For best results, use ISP proxies for accounts requiring stable IPs, and residential proxies for less sensitive operations. Always match your proxy location to the account’s expected geographic region.
What is the difference between Mimic and Stealthfox?
Mimic is Multilogin’s Chromium-based browser engine — it behaves like Chrome and works with most websites. Stealthfox is Firefox-based and can be better for certain anti-detection scenarios since many fingerprinting scripts focus on Chrome detection. For most use cases, Mimic is recommended due to its wider website compatibility. Use Stealthfox if you encounter detection issues with Mimic on specific platforms.
