I am not familiar with this specific library but according to the documentation you will need to add your token to the configuration and then enable the IpInfo driver.

  1. Add your token to the IPINFO_TOKEN Environment Variable in your .env file, e.g:
IPINFO_TOKEN="exampletoken"
  1. Set the driver in config/location.php to IpInfo::class, e.g:
-    'driver' => Stevebauman\Location\Drivers\IpApi::class,
+    'driver' => Stevebauman\Location\Drivers\IpInfo::class,

So that it looks like this:

<?php

return [

    /*
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    | Driver
    |--------------------------------------------------------------------------
    |
    | The default driver you would like to use for location retrieval.
    |
    */

    'driver' => Stevebauman\Location\Drivers\IpInfo::class,

    // ...

Rerun your code, and you should find that the requests are made to our API instead.

  1. Optional you can update the libraries fallback’s to use the default (IpApi) there instead, e.g:
    'fallbacks' => [
        Stevebauman\Location\Drivers\Ip2locationio::class,
-       Stevebauman\Location\Drivers\IpInfo::class,
+       Stevebauman\Location\Drivers\IpApi::class,
        Stevebauman\Location\Drivers\GeoPlugin::class,
        Stevebauman\Location\Drivers\MaxMind::class,
    ],
