Proxyscrape

Who Proxyscrape fits and who should skip it

Proxyscrape is built for buyers whose targets do not fight back hard. A thousand shared datacenter proxies cost $25 a month at $0.025 per IP, and the plan includes 250 GB of traffic. Unlimited traffic on the same 1,000 proxies costs $75 a month. Inside 250 GB you can keep a QA suite, a monitoring job or a crawler against a lenient site running without thinking about the bill.

The dedicated datacenter line sits one step up, $1.90 per IP for small orders and lower as the order grows. Those are addresses you point at internal tools, staging environments and automation that needs a fixed quiet IP rather than a convincing one.

The rotating residential pool is the other reason people arrive here. 120M+ addresses is enough for continuous collection at scale, and the price per gigabyte is ordinary for the market rather than low.

Skip it when you need a single trusted address that lives for months in one city or in a rare country. The static products cover a short country list, and one buyer on Trustpilot reports that what was sold as residential turned out to be mostly ISP, with poor speeds and filters that did not work properly. If you are paying a pool premium precisely to look like a home connection on a hostile target, verify that on a small package before you plan a month of work around it.

Many people know the name from the free proxy list on the same site: 20,000+ public HTTP and SOCKS proxies from 180+ countries, collected from open sources and rechecked every minute. Those addresses are open to anyone and nobody vouches for who runs them, so use the list to test a script, never to send logins or customer data through it. Everything below is about the paid, private side of Proxyscrape.

What it actually costs

Entry on rotating residential is $2.85/GB, and that rate holds through the smallest packages. It already includes the 25% discount the residential page has been advertising, so check the grid on the day you buy. The first discount that changes a decision arrives at the 100-150 GB step, where the gigabyte falls to $2.20.

That makes a 100 GB month $220.

Two things are worth reading off it. The steep part ends early, and near the top two neighbouring tiers carry the same unit price, so stepping up into the larger one buys commitment and nothing else.

One claim on the product pages deserves a second reading. The unlimited datacenter plans are metered: by Proxyscrape's own terms they include 1 TB of traffic per $5 paid, with a 10 TB minimum before overage billing starts. Unlimited there means a paid floor of ten terabytes, not an absence of counting, so your bill scales with the traffic you plan.

The unlimited residential plan is priced by line speed instead of gigabytes. A server in Germany or the US at 100 Mbps costs $1,425 for 30 days, and a single day at 200 Mbps is $266 with the current discount. That only pays off for a crawler that keeps the line busy around the clock, which is exactly the buyer who praises it in the reviews below.

Where competitors are cheaper

The four providers below sell the same products in the same units, so they line up at identical volume steps.

If the gigabyte is your only criterion, Proxyscrape is not the answer: Thordata undercuts it at every step and Geonix pulls far ahead once you pass a few hundred gigabytes. Proxy Seller matches it in the middle and beats it at the edges, which makes Proxyscrape mid-pack rather than expensive.

Mobile traffic at Proxyscrape costs exactly the same as its residential traffic from 5 GB up. Only the 1 GB and 2 GB packages carry a mobile premium, at $7.50 and $3.40 per GB. We would not read that parity as proof that the two pools are equally deep, but it makes mobile traffic a cheap thing to try on a target that keeps blocking home IPs.

On static ISP addresses the order changes. Geonix is cheaper at every size, NodeMaven is the dear one, and Proxyscrape only becomes competitive on volume: buying five addresses is one of its weakest prices in the whole catalogue.

What you get besides the gigabyte

Pool size is the usual defence of a pricier gigabyte, and here it defends little. 120M+ addresses is far above NodeMaven's 30M+ or Geonix's 15M+, yet Thordata runs 100M+ and still sells the cheapest traffic in the table. A big pool lowers the chance of recycling the same address inside one long job. It does not lower your invoice.

Opening an account at Proxyscrape takes an email and a password, or a Google login, and nothing else.

Trying the service costs nothing up front. When we opened an account in February 2026, the free tier gave 7 days, 10 GB, 100 shared datacenter proxies and 10 concurrent connections, HTTP only, with SOCKS5 available after a purchase. Those parameters are not published on the site now, so treat them as what we saw then rather than as a promise.

The money you risk starts after the trial. The specification block above lists 72 hours, and the provider's own wording is "Limited 3-day refund applies, with conditions.". That is still wider than the 24 hours at Proxy Seller and Geonix, and better than NodeMaven, which refunds nothing. Paid trials cut the other way: Geonix asks $1.99 and NodeMaven $3.50 to look inside, and a small paid test can carry less risk than a refund clause with conditions attached.

Payment is the widest part of the offer: the checkout in our account showed 12 methods, against two at NodeMaven and three at Thordata and Geonix. Next to cards, Alipay, crypto and USDT it lists local options such as Przelewy24, Pix, Boleto and Doku, and a checkbox where you give up the right to withdraw the purchase.

One condition never appears next to the price: access may require a verification step, and false or insufficient information can lead to access being denied or terminated. If your workflow cannot survive an identity check, settle that question before you top up.

Country choice only matters on the per-IP products, and it is modest: ISP addresses in 13 countries, dedicated datacenter in 8. For a specific city outside those lists, look elsewhere.

What buyers say

The warmest reviews come from long engagements. On G2, one customer writes that they have used Proxyscrape for more than two years and that proxy quality is what matters for their web scraping.

On Trustpilot the unlimited residential plan earns credit for one specific relief: a user switched to it because they were tired of monitoring data usage every hour. That is an honest argument for paying by bandwidth instead of by gigabyte when a crawler runs around the clock.

The sharpest complaint runs the other way, and it is about expectations rather than uptime: the buyer quoted earlier wanted consumer addresses and judged most of what arrived to be static ISP ones. Both pictures fit the same provider. Strength on the static and continuous-pipeline side, weakness at the moment you need the pool to pass as a home connection on the first attempt.

Two scenarios with numbers

Catalogue collection from a shop with light protection. Take 1,000 shared datacenter proxies at $0.025 per IP, $25 a month for up to 250 GB of pages, or $75 if the crawl needs unlimited traffic. Spread your concurrency across them and accept that a minority of addresses will be refused. Residential traffic for the same crawl would cost many times that, and the target never looks at the ASN.

Ad verification and search result checks on defended sites. Budget 150 GB a month of rotating residential, which at $2.20/GB comes to $330. The same volume at Thordata's rate is less than half of that, so the honest test is whether the cheaper pool reaches your pages often enough to keep the saving.

Verdict

Buy Proxyscrape when you want one account covering shared and dedicated datacenter IPs, residential and mobile traffic at the same rate, and a bandwidth-priced residential plan for jobs that never stop. The cheap static end is where it genuinely wins.

Do not buy it for the lowest residential gigabyte, for a handful of ISP addresses, or for a country that is not on its static lists. In those three cases a cheaper or narrower provider does the same job for less.

What the rules say and how it connects

Session length is the first thing to design around. On the unlimited residential product there is no hard technical cap, but the documentation states: "We recommend a maximum of 12 hours (43,200 seconds)." Keep your sticky sessions under that and you stay inside supported behaviour.

The second condition is contractual. Buying removes the European fallback you would otherwise have: "By purchasing, you waive the standard 14-day consumer withdrawal right." according to the terms of service. That is the clause the checkbox at checkout refers to.

On the premium shared datacenter product the list is static and does not refresh, and addresses banned through active use are not replaced. The suggested remedy is a larger package, so plan that product with attrition in mind instead of expecting swaps.

Finally, splitting or reselling one plan across several parties requires written consent. Agencies that bill several clients through a single account should clear that first.
