Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
No

Describe the solution you'd like
Currently, SmartyURL supports checking the country of IP addresses using the embedded IP2Location database.

Describe alternatives you've considered
This feature proposes adding optional support for ipinfo.io as an alternative geolocation provider. A new setting can be introduced in the admin panel allowing administrators to choose which service to use for IP geolocation:
• Use the local IP2Location database bundled with the application (default).
• Use the ipinfo.io API for real-time IP geolocation.

This would provide greater flexibility for system administrators, enabling them to select the most suitable data source depending on their accuracy needs, performance considerations, or licensing preferences.
