Do I need to move my app or route all its traffic?
No. Keep your existing deployment and route the selected server-side HTTP(S) requests through Penduses. Our Next.js example uses the Node.js runtime. Other platforms and clients need a compatibility check; this is not a switch for all project traffic.
Does every request use my Penduses IP?
Only requests explicitly routed through Penduses. Other traffic keeps its existing route. If your application uses separate service identities for different tenants, use a separate client for each identity.
When can my IP change?
Redeploying your app does not change its Penduses allocation. Ending the service releases the address. Discuss migrations or service changes with us so you can account for any required allowlist updates.
Can I connect to PostgreSQL, MongoDB or SFTP?
The fetch example covers HTTP(S), not database or SFTP clients. Send us your runtime, client and destination for a separate review. WireGuard on a server you control is a different setup; it does not mean WireGuard runs inside a Vercel Function.
What happens if a connection fails?
With one endpoint, the SDK returns an error. With Pro, eligible connection failures can trigger an attempt through the second endpoint before the request is sent.
Existing connections are not moved. Requests that may have been sent are not replayed. Authentication, certificate and destination-policy errors must be resolved. The SDK does not fall back to a direct connection.
How do I check which IP my partner sees?
Start with an allowed HTTPS IP-echo endpoint and compare the observed address with your expected IP. Then make a real request using your actual API client and confirm the result with your partner. A successful IP check alone does not prove every library uses the same route.
Which region should I use?
Choose from the available regions with your application and destination in mind. Routing through Penduses adds a network hop, so measure actual request times during the pilot.
What will it cost? What happens at the traffic limit?
Your pilot quote will state the monthly price, included transfer, connection limits and what happens when you reach them. Send a rough usage estimate, or tell us if you do not know it yet. Your hosting provider may still charge for outbound traffic.
My platform already offers static IPs. Why use Penduses?
Its built-in option may be enough. Penduses is worth checking when your partner requires an IP dedicated to your service, you want to route only selected API calls, or you do not want to operate your own egress infrastructure. Compare the full setup and usage costs; a lower total bill depends on your workload.
Can several apps use the same service?
Tell us which apps, environments and customers you need to connect. Shared usage counts toward the service’s limits. Different customer identities may need separate IPs and credentials; we will confirm the arrangement before quoting.
What happens when the target API changes its IP?
The destination allowlist uses IP addresses and ports. A hostname or CDN can resolve to different addresses, so its required destinations need to stay on the list. We will review this during setup; it is separate from keeping your own source IP fixed.
Does this give my Vercel app a fixed inbound IP?
No. Static Egress handles outbound connections. For routed inbound and outbound IPv4 on a host you control, ask about Tunnel IP.
