TorchProxies

Who TorchProxies fits and who should look elsewhere

Official website: https://torchproxies.com/

The task this provider is built for is simple: you need an address that a website will treat as a home connection, and you need it to be the same address next week and next month. Account farms, sneaker and ticket drops, social platforms where a session change reads as suspicious, antidetect profiles that must stay glued to one location. For that, you pay per IP per month and traffic is not metered, which is exactly the logic of ISP proxies. TorchProxies prices that product at $2.40 per IP for a handful of addresses and $2.30 from twenty upwards, and it sells those addresses in 11 countries, including three in Asia that most static catalogs do not carry at all.

The task it is not built for is large-scale collection on a tight budget. Rotating residential traffic here starts at $4/GB and stays in the upper half of this comparison at every volume step. The wall is the invoice, not the map. Same for ad verification: you can see the creative from the country you need, you are simply paying more per gigabyte for it than at the vendors built for that work.

There is also a task where TorchProxies is simply the wrong tool regardless of price: bulk collection from sites that do not fight back. Internal dashboards, lenient search results, public catalogs. Paying $4/GB for residential traffic there is burned money, and a datacenter pool does the same work for a fraction of it.

What it actually costs

The step curve on rotating traffic is unusually flat, and that is the first thing to understand before you plan volume.

Between the entry price and the largest published step the discount only travels about a dollar per gigabyte, and after 500-600 GB it stops moving in any meaningful way. Practically: a 100 GB month of rotating residential runs $325 at the 100-150 GB step, and buying ten times more traffic only brings the unit price to $2.90. There is no volume threshold here that turns TorchProxies into a cheap provider, so plan around the price you see at your real monthly volume rather than around a future discount.

Static addresses work on the other model: you pay per IP per month and traffic does not enter the bill. The step from $2.40 to $2.30 is almost flat too, which means volume buys you nothing on this product either, but it also means the small order is not punished. Thirty addresses cost the same per unit as two hundred and fifty, and that is friendly to anyone running a modest account operation rather than an enterprise fleet.

What the sheet does not include: there is no refund window, so the money you put in stays in. Check how long purchased rotating traffic remains valid before you pay for a large block.

Where TorchProxies loses to named competitors

We compare against NodeMaven, Relayox, Proxyscrape, Proxy Seller and Thordata because all of them sell the same rotating residential product by the gigabyte, and three of them also sell static addresses per IP, so the units line up. Here is the same type at three volumes across all six.

At every volume step TorchProxies sits in the upper half of the price range, and the gap widens rather than closes as volume grows.

Rotation Residential Proxies, $/GB

On a small test order TorchProxies is competitive, but from the hundred-gigabyte mark onward Thordata and Proxy Seller charge about a dollar less per gigabyte, which is roughly $105 saved on a 100 GB month and over $1,000 on a terabyte. If gigabytes are your main expense line, this is not where you buy them.

ISP / Static Residential Proxies, $ per IP per month

The static product is where TorchProxies earns its place: at five addresses it is less than half of NodeMaven's flat per-IP rate, and NodeMaven's ISP list covers 6 countries against 11 here. Proxy Seller is closer on price and much wider at 24 countries, so the real choice between them is geography, not the bill.

The short country list here belongs to the static product, sold in 11 countries and not one more.

And a disagreement with the industry habit that produces those cards. The common advice is to pick the provider with the biggest pool and the longest country list, and we do not accept it as a rule. A pool is not a resource you consume; you consume fresh, unbanned addresses in one country and often in one ASN, at whatever concurrency your job runs. A provider with 195 entries in a dropdown may have a few hundred usable addresses in the market you actually need, and you discover this after paying. For static addresses the logic inverts completely: 11 countries that include Japan, Korea and Hong Kong beat 195 countries that do not, because you are buying a specific location, not an average. So judge the list against your target list, not against the competitor's list.

What comes with the gigabyte and what a test costs

The pool here is stated at 100M+ addresses, and this is where the usual trade-off breaks down. Normally the cheapest gigabyte comes from the smallest network: Thordata sells traffic well below TorchProxies while publishing 60M+, and NodeMaven publishes 30M+ while charging more, betting openly on filtering instead of volume. TorchProxies has one of the larger declared pools in this group and still charges near the top on rotation, which means the scale is not buying you a cheaper gigabyte: the pool is large and the country list is as long as anyone's here, and neither turns into a discount at any volume step.

Testing is cheap to start and expensive to get wrong. A free trial means the first look costs nothing, which is more than Proxy Seller or Thordata offer, both of which have no trial at all. But there is no refund window here, and that is the number that matters once you top up: Relayox gives 168 hours to change your mind, Proxyscrape 72, Proxy Seller 24. A paid $1 trial with a week-long refund, as at Relayox, risks less real money than a free trial followed by a non-refundable balance. Practical rule for TorchProxies: use the trial to validate your targets, then buy the smallest block that covers your first week.

Payments are card and crypto, two options. That is the same as NodeMaven and enough for most buyers, but if you need PayPal or a local method, Proxyscrape carries five and Proxy Seller four.

Reputation

TorchProxies is known on the market mainly through the sneaker and ticket resale community, which is also where its product mix comes from: cheap static addresses in a short list of high-demand locations, sold in small quantities, with promo codes running on both products. In open discussions among multi-accounting and reselling groups the provider comes up as a budget source of ISP addresses for account work rather than as a scraping vendor, which matches the data above: the static price is the strength, and the rotating gigabyte is not what brings people here. Since it launched in 2023 it is a young brand, so treat community chatter as directional and verify your own locations during the trial.

Two scenarios

Scenario one: thirty accounts on a platform that punishes session changes, each account needing its own stable address. That is 30 ISP addresses at $2.30, so $69 per month, traffic not metered. The same thirty addresses at NodeMaven's flat per-IP rate come to $149.70, which makes this the clearest case for choosing TorchProxies. Country choice is the only thing to check first: if your accounts must sit in Spain or Poland, the 11-country list does not reach them and Proxy Seller does.

Scenario two: price collection across one or two European markets at around 100 GB a month. On rotating residential that comes to roughly $325, and Germany, France, Italy, the Netherlands and Poland are all on the location list. It works, but Thordata charges about $105 less per month for the same volume. On a few gigabytes a month the difference is small enough to ignore; once the job grows, the cheaper gigabyte wins and you should read the rotating residential comparison before committing.

Verdict

Buy TorchProxies when you need static residential addresses, in quantities from a few to a few hundred, in one of its 11 countries, and especially when that country is Japan, Korea or Hong Kong, where static supply elsewhere is thin. At $2.30 per IP with unmetered traffic this is a genuinely strong price for multi-accounting infrastructure, and the free trial lets you confirm the addresses before you commit a month.

Skip it when gigabytes are your main cost, when the monthly volume is large enough that a dollar per gigabyte decides the budget, or when you need a refund window as insurance. In those three cases the comparison above names cheaper alternatives, and the decision is not close.
