+## Multi-Account Provider Support
+
+CloudProxy now supports multiple accounts per provider, allowing you to:
+
+- Use multiple API keys or access tokens for the same provider
+- Configure different regions, sizes, and scaling parameters per account
+- Organize proxies by account/instance for better management
+- Scale each account independently
+
+Each provider can have multiple "instances", which represent different accounts or configurations. Each instance has its own:
+
+- Scaling parameters (min/max)
+- Region settings
+- Size configuration
+- API credentials
+- IP addresses
+
+To configure multiple instances, use environment variables with the instance name in the format:
+```
+PROVIDERNAME_INSTANCENAME_VARIABLE
+```
+
+For example, to configure two DigitalOcean accounts:
+```shell
+# Default DigitalOcean account
+DIGITALOCEAN_ENABLED=True
+DIGITALOCEAN_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_first_token
+DIGITALOCEAN_DEFAULT_REGION=lon1
+DIGITALOCEAN_DEFAULT_MIN_SCALING=2
+
+# Second DigitalOcean account
+DIGITALOCEAN_SECONDACCOUNT_ENABLED=True
+DIGITALOCEAN_SECONDACCOUNT_ACCESS_TOKEN=your_second_token
+DIGITALOCEAN_SECONDACCOUNT_REGION=nyc1
+DIGITALOCEAN_SECONDACCOUNT_MIN_SCALING=3
+```

 CloudProxy runs on a schedule of every 30 seconds, it will check if the minimum scaling has been met, if not then it will deploy the required number of proxies. The new proxy info will appear in IPs once they are deployed and ready to be used.

 # AWS Configuration
 
-To use AWS as a provider, you’ll first need to create an IAM User.
+To use AWS as a provider, you'll need to set up credentials for authentication.
 
-## Steps
+## AWS IAM Setup
 
-1. Login to your AWS console.
-2. Go to Identity and Access Management (IAM).
-3. On the left-hand panel, click 'Users'.
-4. Click 'Add user'.
-5. Choose a username e.g. CloudProxy and select 'Programmatic access', then click Next.
-6. Click 'Attach existing policies directly' and then select 'AmazonEC2FullAccess', then click Next.
-7. Tag is optional, you may want to create the key as 'CloudProxy', then click Next.
-8. Now Review and then click 'Create user'.
+1. Login to the AWS Management Console
+2. Go to the IAM service
+3. Create a new IAM policy with the following permissions:
+   - EC2 (for managing instances): DescribeInstances, RunInstances, TerminateInstances, CreateTags, DescribeImages, DescribeInstanceStatus, DescribeInstanceTypes, DescribeAvailabilityZones, DescribeSecurityGroups, AuthorizeSecurityGroupIngress
+   - Systems Manager (for configuring instances): SendCommand
+4. Create a new IAM user or role and attach the policy
+5. Generate access key ID and secret access key
 
-Now you have your access key and secret access key, you can now use AWS as a proxy provider, below details of the environment variables.
+## Environment Variables
 
-## Configuration options
-### Environment variables: 
-#### Required:
-`` AWS_ENABLED`` - to enable AWS as a provider, set as True. Default value: False
+### Required:
+``AWS_ENABLED`` - to enable AWS as a provider, set as True. Default value: False
 
-`` AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`` - the access key to allow CloudProxy access to your account. 
+``AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID`` - the access key ID for CloudProxy to authenticate with AWS.
 
-`` AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`` - the secret access key to allow CloudProxy access to your account.
-#### Optional:
-``AWS_MIN_SCALING`` - this is the minimal proxies you required to be provisioned. Default value: 2
+``AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY`` - the secret access key for CloudProxy to authenticate with AWS.
 
-``AWS_MAX_SCALING`` - this is currently unused, however will be when autoscaling is implemented. We recommend you set this as the same as the minimum scaling to avoid future issues for now. Default value: 2
+### Optional:
+``AWS_REGION`` - the AWS region where instances will be deployed, e.g., eu-west-2. Default: us-east-1
 
-``AWS_SIZE``  - this sets the instance size, we recommend the smallest instance as the volume even a small instance can handle is high. Default value: t2.micro
+``AWS_AMI`` - the Amazon Machine Image (AMI) ID to use for instances. This should be Ubuntu 22.04. Default: region-specific default AMI
 
-``AWS_SPOT`` - use this to launch instances as spot instances. The available options are 'persistent' (if you want to be able to restart them) or 'one-time' (if you plan to terminate them). Not all sizes are able to be launched as spot instances. Default value: False
+``AWS_MIN_SCALING`` - minimum number of proxies to provision. Default: 2
 
-``AWS_REGION`` - this sets the region where the instance is deployed. Some websites may redirect to the language of the country your IP is from. Default value: eu-west-2
+``AWS_MAX_SCALING`` - maximum number of proxies to provision. Default: 2
 
-``AWS_AMI`` - this sets the AMI the instance is deployed with. The default AMI is for Ubuntu 20.04, however each region may use a different AMI ID. If not using eu-west-2, you may need to set a different AMI ID. See the AWS AMI Marketplace for Ubuntu 20.04 AMI IDs. Default value: ami-096cb92bb3580c759
\ No newline at end of file
+``AWS_SIZE`` - the instance type to use. t2.micro is included in the free tier. Default: t2.micro
+
+``AWS_SPOT`` - whether to use spot instances (can be cheaper but may be terminated by AWS). Set to True or False. Default: False
+
+## Multi-Account Support
+
+CloudProxy supports running multiple AWS accounts simultaneously. Each account is configured as a separate "instance" with its own settings.
+
+### Default Instance Configuration
+
+The configuration variables mentioned above configure the "default" instance. For example:
+
+```
+AWS_ENABLED=True
+AWS_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your_default_access_key
+AWS_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your_default_secret_key
+AWS_REGION=us-east-1
+AWS_MIN_SCALING=2
+```
+
+### Additional Instances Configuration
+
+To configure additional AWS accounts, use the following format:
+```
+AWS_INSTANCENAME_VARIABLE=VALUE
+```
+
+For example, to add a second AWS account in a different region:
+
+```
+AWS_EU_ENABLED=True
+AWS_EU_ACCESS_KEY_ID=your_second_access_key
+AWS_EU_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY=your_second_secret_key
+AWS_EU_REGION=eu-west-1
+AWS_EU_MIN_SCALING=1
+AWS_EU_SIZE=t2.micro
+AWS_EU_SPOT=True
+AWS_EU_DISPLAY_NAME=EU Account
+```
+
+### Available instance-specific configurations
+
+For each instance, you can configure:
+
+#### Required for each instance:
+- `AWS_INSTANCENAME_ENABLED` - to enable this specific instance
+- `AWS_INSTANCENAME_ACCESS_KEY_ID` - AWS access key ID for this instance
+- `AWS_INSTANCENAME_SECRET_ACCESS_KEY` - AWS secret access key for this instance
+
+#### Optional for each instance:
+- `AWS_INSTANCENAME_REGION` - AWS region for this instance
+- `AWS_INSTANCENAME_AMI` - AMI ID for this instance (region-specific)
+- `AWS_INSTANCENAME_MIN_SCALING` - minimum number of proxies for this instance
+- `AWS_INSTANCENAME_MAX_SCALING` - maximum number of proxies for this instance
+- `AWS_INSTANCENAME_SIZE` - instance type for this instance
+- `AWS_INSTANCENAME_SPOT` - whether to use spot instances for this instance
+- `AWS_INSTANCENAME_DISPLAY_NAME` - a friendly name for the instance that will appear in the UI
+
+Each instance operates independently, maintaining its own pool of proxies according to its configuration.

 # Hetzner Configuration
 
-To use Hetzner as a provider, you’ll first need to generate an API token.
+To use Hetzner as a provider, you'll need to generate an API token.
 
 ## Steps
 
-1. Login to your Hetzner Cloud account.
-2. Select a project, then on the left sidebar, select 'Security'.
-3. In the Security section, select 'API Tokens' on the top menu bar, click the Generate API Token button. This opens an API token window.
-4. Enter a token name, this can be anything, I recommend 'CloudProxy' so you know what it is being used for.
-5. Select 'Read & Write', write permission is needed so CloudProxy can provision instances.
-6. When you click 'Generate API Token', your token is generated and presented to you. Be sure to record your API token. For security purposes, it will not be shown again.
+1. Login to your [Hetzner Cloud Console](https://console.hetzner.cloud/).
+2. Select your project (or create a new one).
+3. Go to Security > API Tokens.
+4. Click "Generate API Token".
+5. Enter a token name (e.g., "CloudProxy").
+6. Select "Read & Write" for the permission.
+7. Click "Generate API Token".
+8. Copy the token immediately (it will only be displayed once).
 
-Now you have your token, you can now use Hetzner as a proxy provider, on this page you can see how to set it is an environment variable. 
+Now you have your token, you can use Hetzner as a proxy provider by configuring the environment variables as shown below.
 
 ## Configuration options
-### Environment variables: 
+### Environment variables:
 #### Required:
-`` HETZNER_ENABLED`` - to enable Hetzner as a provider, set as True. Default value: False
+``HETZNER_ENABLED`` - to enable Hetzner as a provider, set as True. Default value: False
 
-`` HETZNER_ACCESS_TOKEN`` - the token to allow CloudProxy access to your account. 
+``HETZNER_API_TOKEN`` - the API token to allow CloudProxy access to your account.
 
 #### Optional:
-``HETZNER_MIN_SCALING`` - this is the minimal proxies you required to be provisioned. Default value: 2
+``HETZNER_MIN_SCALING`` - the minimum number of proxies to provision. Default value: 2
 
-``HETZNER_MAX_SCALING`` - this is currently unused, however will be when autoscaling is implemented. We recommend you set this as the same as the minimum scaling to avoid future issues for now. Default value: 2
+``HETZNER_MAX_SCALING`` - currently unused, but will be when autoscaling is implemented. We recommend you set this to the same value as the minimum scaling to avoid future issues. Default value: 2
 
-``HETZNER_SIZE``  - this sets the instance size, we recommend the smallest instance as the volume even a small instance can handle is high. Default value: cx11
+``HETZNER_SIZE`` - the server type to use. Default value: cx11 (the smallest available server type)
 
-``HETZNER_LOCATION`` - this sets the location where the instance is deployed. Some websites may redirect to the language of the country your IP is from. Default value: nbg1
+``HETZNER_LOCATION`` - the location where the server will be deployed. Default value: nbg1 (Nuremberg, Germany)
+
+``HETZNER_DATACENTER`` - alternatively, you can specify a specific datacenter rather than just a location. Note that a datacenter value will override the location setting.
+
+## Multi-Account Support
+
+CloudProxy supports running multiple Hetzner accounts simultaneously. Each account is configured as a separate "instance" with its own settings.
+
+### Default Instance Configuration
+
+The configuration variables mentioned above configure the "default" instance. For example:
+
+```
+HETZNER_ENABLED=True
+HETZNER_API_TOKEN=your_default_token
+HETZNER_LOCATION=nbg1
+HETZNER_MIN_SCALING=2
+```
+
+### Additional Instances Configuration
+
+To configure additional Hetzner accounts, use the following format:
+```
+HETZNER_INSTANCENAME_VARIABLE=VALUE
+```
+
+For example, to add a second Hetzner account in a different location:
+
+```
+HETZNER_FINLAND_ENABLED=True
+HETZNER_FINLAND_API_TOKEN=your_second_token
+HETZNER_FINLAND_LOCATION=hel1
+HETZNER_FINLAND_MIN_SCALING=3
+HETZNER_FINLAND_SIZE=cx11
+HETZNER_FINLAND_DISPLAY_NAME=Finland Hetzner Account
+```
+
+### Available instance-specific configurations
+
+For each instance, you can configure:
+
+#### Required for each instance:
+- `HETZNER_INSTANCENAME_ENABLED` - to enable this specific instance
+- `HETZNER_INSTANCENAME_API_TOKEN` - the API token for this instance
+
+#### Optional for each instance:
+- `HETZNER_INSTANCENAME_MIN_SCALING` - minimum number of proxies for this instance
+- `HETZNER_INSTANCENAME_MAX_SCALING` - maximum number of proxies for this instance
+- `HETZNER_INSTANCENAME_SIZE` - server type for this instance
+- `HETZNER_INSTANCENAME_LOCATION` - location for this instance
+- `HETZNER_INSTANCENAME_DATACENTER` - datacenter for this instance (overrides location)
+- `HETZNER_INSTANCENAME_DISPLAY_NAME` - a friendly name for the instance that will appear in the UI
+
+Each instance operates independently, maintaining its own pool of proxies according to its configuration.
