Residential Smart Proxies

The cheapest entry into our 10M+ residential pool, billed per GB.

See plans
What's the difference between Residential Smart, Exclusive and Premium?

Residential Smart is our 10M+ entry pool at the lowest price per GB. Exclusive adds IP-quality scoring, city + ASN targeting and priority routing. Premium is a separate 110M+ pool, re-scored daily, with the lowest ban rate.

Can I upgrade later?

Yes. Every tier shares the same dashboard, API and credits. Move up or down whenever your workload changes.

Is there a free trial?

Yes. Message our team in live chat and they activate 250 MB free on residential per-GB plans for you, no credit card required. ISP Shared also offers a paid 1-hour trial at $4.99. Unlimited Residential does not include a free trial; instead it has an Hourly plan at $20 for 1 hour on a 200 Mbps port.

Exclusive Residential Proxies

Curated 15M+ residential pool with city + ASN targeting and IP-quality scoring.

See plans
What does 'IP-quality score' mean?

Every session reports a 0–100 score combining fraud-list status, ASN trust, and recent block signals. Filter low scores out via header or API.

How granular is the targeting?

Country, state, city, ASN and carrier on supported regions, all included in the per-GB price.

Is this enough for sneakers or social?

For most targets, yes. If you need the cleanest US/EU residentials and the lowest possible ban rate, step up to Premium.

Premium Residential Proxies

110M+ premium residential IPs, the largest premium pool on the market.

See plans
Why are they called Premium?

Not marketing. Premium Residential is a separate 110M+ IP pool where every exit is re-scored daily on real, strict targets. IPs that drift out of the top band rotate back to standard tiers, so Premium always holds the cleanest residential IPs we have. It is the largest pool we operate.

How does launch pricing work?

Starter traffic is $2.49/GB and the rate drops automatically with volume. $1.49 at 100 GB, $0.99 at 500 GB and just $0.80/GB at 1 TB. The 1 TB rate is a launch discount and is our lowest premium rate right now.

Is this safe for account warmup and sneakers?

Yes. Premium is pre-tuned for SNKRS, Shopify, Adidas, Supreme, major ticketing platforms and social account management.

Can I mix tiers?

Absolutely. Route easy targets through Residential Smart or Exclusive and keep Premium for the tough ones. Same API key, one header switch.

Unlimited Residential Proxies

Unlimited GB on a dedicated residential port, 200 to 1000 Mbps

See plans
Is bandwidth really unlimited?

Yes. You pay for port speed and duration; we never meter your GB.

Can I target a city or state?

No. Unlimited Residential supports country targeting only. Sticky sessions (with a configurable time) and per-request rotation are both available. For city, state or ASN targeting use Premium, Exclusive or Smart Residential.

Is there a free trial on Unlimited?

No. Unlimited plans have no free trial. Instead we offer the Hourly plan: $15 for 60 minutes on a 200 Mbps port, no commitment.

I need a lower price than the list rate.

Contact us. For larger or longer commitments we quote custom pricing below the public list price.

Mobile 4G / 5G Proxies

Real carrier IPs that look like real phones · billed per GB

See plans
Are these real phones?

Yes. Every mobile session exits through a real carrier handset on a real cellular network.

How is mobile billed?

Per GB. Bundles run from 1 GB at $3.10 down to $2.00/GB at 500 GB, and your traffic never expires. We do not currently offer dedicated per-IP mobile plans.

Can I rotate on demand?

Yes. Rotate per request, or hold a sticky session for up to 60 minutes.

Which carriers?

AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon and 29 international carriers across 14 countries.

Datacenter Proxies

Fast US datacenter proxies on a 100 Gbps backbone

See plans
What is a datacenter proxy?

A datacenter proxy routes your request through a fast IP hosted in a data center rather than a residential or mobile connection. It is a cost-effective choice for high-volume tasks where speed matters more than appearing as a home user.

Are your datacenter proxies based in the US?

Yes. Every exit is a US datacenter IP. Our owned subnets span US regions and run on a 100 Gbps backbone with about 80 ms median latency.

Why are these datacenter proxies so affordable?

The IPs run on clean subnets we own, with direct peering to major Tier-1 networks. Volume pricing automatically drops from $2.50/GB to $0.50/GB at 1 TB.

Do you support sneaker sites?

Yes. Growth Unlimited and above include sneaker-grade subnets and SSL handling.

Can I get a private subnet?

Enterprise Unlimited supports dedicated /24 subnets with allowlisted egress.

ISP Proxies

50,000+ US-based static IPs · pay per GB, unlimited, or dedicated IPs

See plans
How much does a dedicated ISP IP cost?

A dedicated static ISP IP costs $2.75 per IP per month, with no minimum order — buy a single IP or a thousand. Bulk discounts apply automatically at 50 and 500 IPs.

Are these really residential?

Yes. The IPs are assigned by real residential ISPs — only the hosting sits in our datacenter.

How long do I keep an IP?

Dedicated IPs are reserved for as long as you keep the monthly subscription active.

Can I buy 1,000 IPs?

Yes. Bulk pricing kicks in automatically at 50 IPs and again at 500 IPs.

IPv6 Proxies

Effectively infinite IP space at the lowest cost

See plans
What is an IPv6 proxy?

An IPv6 proxy forwards your requests through an IPv6 address instead of an IPv4 one. The target site sees the IPv6 exit, not your own IP. Because IPv6 address space is enormous, providers can offer far more unique IPs at a much lower price than IPv4.

How much do IPv6 proxies cost?

Pricing starts at $0.50 for one day on a 10 Mbps port and runs to $750 for three months on a 1 Gbps port. Every plan includes unlimited traffic for the selected term, so there is no per-GB metering.

Are IPv6 proxies cheaper than IPv4?

Substantially. IPv4 addresses are scarce and priced per IP or per GB, while a single IPv6 /64 subnet contains effectively unlimited addresses. For IPv6-ready targets you typically pay a fraction of an equivalent IPv4 or residential plan.

Do IPv6 proxies work on YouTube, Google and AI APIs?

Yes. Google, YouTube, Cloudflare, AWS, Vercel and the OpenAI, Anthropic and Gemini APIs all answer over IPv6, which is why these are our most popular targets for IPv6 ports.

What happens on IPv4-only websites?

We route those requests over our IPv4 fallback automatically, so a site without IPv6 support still loads. You do not need to change anything in your code.

Can I rotate IPv6 IPs or keep a sticky session?

Both. You can rotate to a fresh address inside the subnet on every request, or hold a sticky session on the same IPv6 for up to 24 hours.

How fast is setup?

Minutes. Buy a port, allowlist your static IPv4 address or use user:pass, and connect over HTTP(S) or SOCKS5. Your own servers do not need native IPv6.

Is the traffic really unlimited?

Yes. You pay for the port speed and the term. There is no bandwidth cap or per-GB overage during that window.

Will my target accept IPv6?

Most modern targets do. If you are not sure, run the address through our free proxy checker before buying, or start with a one-day port to test.

Still not sure which line fits?
