Question 1

How much do residential proxies cost?

Accepted Answer

It depends on the pool and the plan size. Per GB, prices start at $0.10 on Non-Geo, $0.48 on Country Geo and $0.75 on Full Geo. Every plan is a fixed monthly subscription with a set amount of traffic: Regular Full Geo plans run from $50 for 50 GB to $299 for 400 GB, Lite plans start at $10 for 5 GB, and Enterprise plans cover larger volumes. The larger the plan, the lower the price per GB, with no hidden fees.

Question 2

How does IP rotation work?

Accepted Answer

You can choose per-request rotation (new IP on every request) or sticky sessions that keep the same IP for 1 to 30 minutes. Both modes are configurable per port from your dashboard or via API.

Question 3

What's the difference between Lite, Regular, and Enterprise plans?

Accepted Answer

Lite plans are entry-level packages for smaller workloads, starting at 5 GB per month. Regular plans offer competitive per-GB pricing for standard workloads. Enterprise plans include higher bandwidth allocations, a dedicated account manager, and a 99.9% uptime SLA for mission-critical operations.

Question 4

What is the difference between the Full Geo, Country Geo and Non-Geo pools?

Accepted Answer

All three pools share the same rotation options, sticky sessions, protocols, dashboard and API. Full Geo is our largest network (205M+ IPs) and lets you target by country, state, city and ASN. Country Geo runs on a 31M+ IP network and targets by country only. Non-Geo uses the same 31M+ IP network with no targeting at all, so you get a worldwide mix of IPs at the lowest price per GB.

Question 5

Do all plans use the same proxy pool?

Accepted Answer

Within a pool, yes. Every Full Geo plan, from Spark to Max, accesses the same 205M+ residential IP pool across 195+ countries; the tiers differ in bandwidth allocation and support level, not proxy quality. Country Geo and Non-Geo plans run on a separate 31M+ IP network.

Question 6

Can I switch between pools later?

Accepted Answer

Yes. You have one residential plan at a time, and you can switch it to a different pool whenever you need. Your credentials, integrations and rotation settings work the same way on every pool, so the switch is seamless.

Question 7

Can I target specific cities or ASNs?

Accepted Answer

Yes, on the Full Geo pool. Every Full Geo plan includes country, city, and ASN-level geo-targeting across 195+ countries, set per port from the dashboard or via API parameters. Country Geo targets by country only and Non-Geo has no targeting.

Question 8

What protocols are supported?

Accepted Answer

All plans support HTTP, HTTPS, SOCKS4, and SOCKS5. You can switch protocols per port without any additional cost.

Question 9

Can I test before committing?

Accepted Answer

Every plan includes a 3-day money-back guarantee, so you can test speed, geo-targeting, and reliability on your own targets.
