Our take: Holds one IP for up to seven days and documents the app SDK that supplies its IPs; the catch is $80 for 10 GB, against a market median of $40.
Best for: Work that needs the same IP for days at a time, such as long logged-in sessions.
Think twice if: You buy small or irregular amounts, or want to pay near the market median.

Best for: Companies that need scale, the deepest targeting and a vendor with full compliance processes.
Think twice if: You’re an individual, need a trial, or want to pay near the market median.

## Byteful (formerly Ping Proxies)

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/byteful

ID check: only if asked
Payment: card, crypto, wire
Targeting: country, state, city, asn

Pool size (claimed): 35 million+ real residential IPs
Independent testing under its terms: banned
Sourcing check: Clear, high confidence (checked 2026-10-23); evidence: https://byteful.com/terms-and-conditions https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/12699144 https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/12699144/persons-with-significant-control https://byteful.com/ping-proxies https://proxyway.com/reviews/ping-proxies https://documentation.byteful.com/general/ethical-sourcing https://byteful.com/features/ethically-sourced-proxies

Our take: Formerly Ping Proxies: from 1 GB, with traffic that never expires and city or ASN targeting, at $32.50 for 10 GB; it names none of the SDKs or apps behind its IPs.
Best for: Small or irregular jobs that need city or ASN targeting and traffic that keeps.
Think twice if: You want the apps or SDKs behind the IPs named, or a trial you can count on.

## DataImpulse

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/dataimpulse
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://dataimpulse.com/residential-proxies/): 1 GB $5 (new customers, once); 10 GB $50; 100 GB $100

Independent testing under its terms: open
Sourcing check: Concerning, high confidence (checked 2026-10-23); evidence: https://synthient.com/context/provider/DATAIMPULSE https://customer.appesteem.com/deceptors

Our take: Traffic that never expires and 100 GB for $100, with ZIP targeting, but its sourcing check is Concerning: Synthient says its IPs come through TraffMonetizer, which AppEsteem lists for missing consent.
Best for: Large, irregular scraping jobs where the cost per GB and traffic that keeps decide.
Think twice if: You buy under 50 GB at a time, or need a supplier whose sourcing you can defend.

## Decodo (formerly Smartproxy)

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/decodo

Independent testing under its terms: needs-permission

Our take: A polished mid-priced all-rounder with a free trial and fine targeting, from the same group as Oxylabs; it doesn’t name where its IPs come from.
Best for: Small and mid-sized scraping jobs that want a trial first and fine targeting.
Think twice if: You need to know exactly which apps or partners supply the IPs.

## Evomi

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/evomi
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://evomi.com/pricing): 1 GB $14.85; 10 GB $14.85; 100 GB $49
Minimum purchase: $14.85

Our take: One of the cheapest ways in, at $14.85 for 15 GB that never expires, with ZIP targeting and PayPal; EarnFM, a bandwidth-sharing app from the same company, has an open AppEsteem consent finding.
Best for: Budget scraping in irregular bursts, where a low entry price and traffic that keeps matter most.
Think twice if: You check your exit IPs with IP checker sites, or must vouch for consent behind every IP.

## FloppyData

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/floppydata
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://floppydata.com/proxy-type/residential-proxy/): 1 GB $19; 10 GB $19; 100 GB $100

Our take: A low-cost way in, $19 for 19 GB, with city and ASN targeting, PayPal and terms open to testing; traffic lasts 30 days and it doesn’t say where its IPs come from.
Best for: Short budget scraping jobs that need city or ASN targeting, or PayPal billing.
Think twice if: You need to know where the IPs come from, or use traffic slowly over months.

## Froxy

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/froxy
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://froxy.com/en/residential-proxies/pricing): 1 GB $5.50; 10 GB $70; 100 GB $550

Shares infrastructure with: soax (shared-cname-target, shared-ip)

Our take: City and ASN targeting, a paid trial and traffic that never expires, on infrastructure it shares with SOAX, which charges less for 10 GB; you’ll need ID and a selfie to start.
Best for: Irregular jobs that need city or ASN targeting, with a small paid trial first and traffic that never expires.
Think twice if: You’d rather not share ID and a selfie, or you need one IP for longer than an hour.

## Geonode

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/geonode
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://geonode.com/products/residential-proxies): 1 GB $7.92; 10 GB $7.92; 100 GB $64.80

Our take: The lowest regular 10 GB price on our list, with the targeting scrapers need; the open question is where its IPs come from.
Best for: Budget scraping and SEO monitoring, where the price per GB decides.
Think twice if: You need a supplier whose sourcing you can defend to clients or compliance.

## Hydraproxy

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/hydraproxy
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://hydraproxy.com/pricing/): 1 GB $4; 10 GB $40; 100 GB $350

Our take: Pay-as-you-go traffic that never expires, around the market median for 10 GB, for country-level jobs only: no city targeting, no SOCKS5, and no named source for its IPs.
Best for: Country-level jobs such as price or ad checks by country, bought as needed with a balance that never expires.
Think twice if: You need city targeting, SOCKS5, or a supplier that says where its IPs come from.

## Infatica

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/infatica
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://infatica.io/pricing/): 1 GB $4; 10 GB $40; 100 GB $360

Independent testing under its terms: needs-permission
Sourcing check: Unclear, high confidence (checked 2026-10-23); evidence: https://customer.appesteem.com/deceptors https://customer.appesteem.com/deceptors https://asec.ahnlab.com/en/92183/ https://asec.ahnlab.com/en/89787/ https://synthient.com/context/provider/INFATICA https://infatica.io/ https://infatica.io/terms/ https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/14863491 https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/14863491/persons-with-significant-control https://acrawatch.sg/company/infatica-pte-ltd https://infatica.io/about/ https://infatica-sdk.io/ https://bytebenefit.io/ https://infatica.io/about/

Our take: A mid-priced network with ZIP targeting and PayPal, built on its own app SDK; three of its own apps have open AppEsteem consent findings.
Best for: Mid-volume scraping that needs ZIP targeting or PayPal billing.
Think twice if: Consent behind the IPs matters to you, or you’d rather not share ID and a selfie.

## IPFoxy

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/ipfoxy
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://www.ipfoxy.com/pricing/rotating/): 1 GB $5.99; 10 GB $49.90; 100 GB $299

Our take: A Singapore-run provider with city targeting, SOCKS5 and a free 200 MB trial, priced above the market median for 10 GB; it doesn’t say how devices join its pool, traffic expires and there are no refunds.
Best for: City-targeted scraping that uses its traffic within the month, tried first on the free trial.
Think twice if: You need refunds, traffic that doesn’t expire, sessions longer than an hour, or a company named in the contract.

## IPRoyal

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/iproyal
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://iproyal.com/pricing/residential-proxies/): 1 GB $7; 10 GB $52.50; 100 GB $525 (at most)

Shares infrastructure with: marsproxies (shared-ip)

Our take: Traffic that never expires, sessions of up to seven days and crypto payments, at $52.50 for 10 GB; it shares its network with MarsProxies.
Best for: Long sessions and irregular use, where traffic that never expires and week-long IPs matter.
Think twice if: You need refunds, ZIP targeting, or a clear account of where today’s IPs come from.

## Live Proxies

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/live-proxies
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://liveproxies.io/pricing): 1 GB $45; 10 GB $95; 100 GB $490

Sourcing check: Clear, high confidence (checked 2026-10-23); evidence: https://liveproxies.io/legal/privacy-policy https://liveproxies.io/legal/terms-of-services https://liveproxies.io/sdk-monetization

Our take: A Clear sourcing check and no ID check, from a US provider that builds its pool through an app SDK; but 26 of 30 providers charge less for 10 GB, and its cheapest plans can’t target a country.
Best for: Jobs where the exit location doesn’t matter, for buyers who want no ID check and a Clear sourcing check.
Think twice if: You need city targeting, SOCKS5, PayPal or crypto, or a price near the market median.

## MarsProxies

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/marsproxies
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://marsproxies.com/pricing/residential-proxies/): 1 GB $4.99; 10 GB $39.92; 100 GB $299.40

Shares infrastructure with: iproyal (shared-ip)

Our take: Seven-day sessions and traffic that never expires at $39.92 for 10 GB, less than IPRoyal, with which it shares infrastructure; it names no app or partner behind its IPs.
Best for: Account work that needs one IP for days, bought pay as you go with traffic that never expires.
Think twice if: You need refunds, a trial, or a provider that names the apps or partners behind its IPs.

## Massive

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/massive
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://www.joinmassive.com/web-access): 1 GB $80; 10 GB $80; 100 GB $490

Our take: A Clear sourcing check built on an opt-in app SDK it documents, with ZIP and ASN targeting; the catch is the price, $80 for its smallest plan of 10 GB, and an ID check for everyone.
Best for: Companies that want documented opt-in supply with ZIP or ASN targeting, and can pay above the median for it.
Think twice if: You buy small amounts, want to pay by PayPal or crypto, or need to map the network you route through.

## NodeMaven

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/nodemaven

Our take: ZIP targeting, day-long sessions and traffic that never expires, but no 10 GB plan (the next size, 20 GB, costs $75) and no named source for its IPs.
Best for: Irregular jobs that need ZIP-level IPs held for hours, where traffic that never expires matters.
Think twice if: You want refunds, buy exactly 10 GB, or need to know who supplies the IPs.

## Novada

Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://www.novada.com/pricing/residential-proxies/): 1 GB $10 (new customers, once); 10 GB $10 (new customers, once); 100 GB $235

Our take: A cheap first month for new customers, with city and ASN targeting and PayPal or crypto; the catch is no SOCKS5, two-hour sessions, and Synthient calls it an “IPIDEA-associated brand”.
Best for: Trying city- or ASN-targeted traffic for a month at a low entry price, paying by PayPal or crypto.
Think twice if: You need SOCKS5 or sessions over two hours, or your clients ask where the IPs come from.

## Oxylabs

Our take: A premium, enterprise-grade network with fine targeting and an openly named supply chain, at $100 for 10 GB, well above the market median.
Best for: Companies that need fine targeting and a supplier with an established compliance setup.
Think twice if: You’re cost-sensitive, or want refunds and room to test before you commit.

## PacketStream

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/packetstream
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://packetstream.io/pricing/): 1 GB $50; 10 GB $50; 100 GB $100
Minimum purchase: $50
Unused traffic: never expires
ID check: not stated
Payment: card, paypal
Targeting: country
Protocols: http, https, socks5
Sticky sessions up to: 60 minutes
Trial: Trial credits on request; approval and amount at PacketStream's discretion
Refunds: Remaining balance refundable if requested within 24 hours of purchase

Sourcing check: Unclear, high confidence (checked 2026-10-23); evidence: https://customer.appesteem.com/deceptors https://packetstream.io/terms-of-service/ https://packetstream.io/terms-of-service/ https://packetstream.io/

Our take: Pay-as-you-go traffic that never expires and gets cheap at volume, sourced through its own paid sharing app; but targeting stops at country, and AppEsteem has open consent findings on that app.
Best for: Large, irregular jobs that need only country-level IPs and traffic that doesn’t expire.
Think twice if: You need city targeting or long sessions, or consent behind the IPs matters to your clients.

## Proxy-Cheap

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/proxy-cheap
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://www.proxy-cheap.com/pricing/rotating-residential-proxies): 1 GB $4.50; 10 GB $12; 100 GB $78

Payment: card, paypal, crypto, wire

Sourcing check: Unclear, medium confidence (checked 2026-10-26); evidence: https://www.proxy-cheap.com/terms-and-conditions https://www.proxy-cheap.com/white-label-reseller

Our take: Among the cheapest, at $12 for 10 GB, with PayPal or crypto; the catch is country-only targeting, 30-minute sessions, and no sourcing method or company named.
Best for: Budget scraping at country level, where the price per GB decides.
Think twice if: You need city targeting, sessions over 30 minutes, or a supplier with a named legal entity.

## Proxy-Seller

Our take: Under-median prices and plans from 1 GB, with city targeting, SOCKS5 and day-long sessions; it names no supplier behind its IPs, and its terms bar benchmarking.
Best for: Small and mid-sized scraping jobs that need city targeting and long sticky sessions at an under-median price.
Think twice if: You need to know which network carries your traffic, or you plan to benchmark providers.

## ProxyEmpire

Pool size (claimed): 30M+ real residential IPs
Independent testing under its terms: unclear
Sourcing check: Unclear, high confidence (checked 2026-10-23); evidence: https://proxyempire.io/about-us/ https://proxyway.com/research/proxy-market-research-2026 https://proxyempire.io/terms-of-service/ https://portal.registryagency.bg/CR/api/Deeds/206105711 https://proxyempire.io/about-us/ https://proxyempire.io/about-us/ https://ethicalwebdata.com/2024/06/26/ewdci-member-spotlight-qa-proxyempire/

Our take: Traffic that never expires, ZIP and ASN targeting and four ways to pay, for a list price of $70 per 10 GB; it combines other providers’ supply without naming them, and all sales are final.
Best for: Occasional jobs that need ZIP or ASN targeting, where traffic that never expires outweighs the higher price.
Think twice if: You want refunds, a named network behind the IPs, or to pay near the market median.

## Proxyrack

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/proxyrack
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://www.proxyrack.com/pricing/#premium-residential): 1 GB $110; 10 GB $110; 100 GB $110
Minimum purchase: $110
Unused traffic: not stated
ID check: ID document
Payment: card, paypal, wire
Targeting: country, city
Protocols: http, https, socks5
Sticky sessions up to: not stated
Trial: not stated
Refunds: Unused GB refunded if asked within 72 hours, card or PayPal only; the pricing page promises a full refund within 3 days
Pool size (claimed): 35 million+ monthly IPs
Independent testing under its terms: open
Sourcing check: Concerning, high confidence (checked 2026-10-23); evidence: https://customer.appesteem.com/deceptors https://spur.us/blog/the-market-for-clean-ip-addresses

Our take: Open to independent testing, with city targeting and SOCKS5, but 28 of 30 providers charge less for 10 GB, and its own bandwidth apps carry unresolved consent findings.
Best for: Teams that need a big monthly volume and value terms that allow testing.
Think twice if: You buy small amounts, or how the IPs are sourced matters to your clients.

## ProxyScrape

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/proxyscrape
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://proxyscrape.com/products/residential-proxies): 1 GB $14.25; 10 GB $28.50; 100 GB $220

Our take: A Clear sourcing check with city and ASN targeting, SOCKS5 and terms open to testing, at $28.50 for 10 GB; bundles expire after 30 days and refunds are narrow.
Best for: Steady scraping that needs a Clear sourcing check and city or ASN targeting at an under-median price.
Think twice if: You buy irregularly and need traffic that doesn’t expire, or need sessions longer than two hours.

## Rayobyte

Our take: Traffic that never expires, ZIP targeting and terms open to testing, from a US provider with its own consent-based app network, at $35 for 10 GB.
Best for: Irregular or seasonal scraping, where traffic that never expires saves money.
Think twice if: You want refunds, or sessions longer than two hours.

## Shifter

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/shifter
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://shifter.io/pricing/residential-proxies): 1 GB $10; 10 GB $20; 100 GB $100

Unused traffic: expires
ID check: not stated
Payment: card, paypal, crypto
Targeting: country, state, city, asn
Protocols: http, https, socks5
Sticky sessions up to: 30 minutes
Trial: Free trial with a set amount of traffic; length depends on the account, converts to a paid plan
Refunds: Within 3 days of the first purchase if under 50% of the plan's bandwidth is used
Pool size (claimed): 205M+ residential IPs
Independent testing under its terms: open
Sourcing check: Unclear, high confidence (checked 2026-10-23); evidence: https://krebsonsecurity.com/2022/07/breach-exposes-users-of-microleaves-proxy-service/ https://threats.kaspersky.com/en/threat/Trojan-Proxy.Win64.Microleaves/ https://shifter.io/terms-and-conditions https://krebsonsecurity.com/2022/07/breach-exposes-users-of-microleaves-proxy-service/ https://proxyway.com/reviews/shifter-proxies https://shifter.io/pricing/residential-proxies

Our take: Low monthly prices with city and ASN targeting and a free trial; it names neither its company nor how it gets its IPs, and Krebs on Security reported consent problems at Microleaves, its former name.
Best for: High-volume scraping on a monthly budget, where sessions of up to 30 minutes are enough.
Think twice if: You need to know who you’re contracting with and where the IPs come from, or need long sessions.

## SOAX

Shares infrastructure with: froxy (shared-cname-target, shared-ip)

Our take: A mid-priced network with a Clear sourcing check, city targeting and crypto payments; it asks for ID and has no free trial.
Best for: Teams that want a Clear sourcing check, city targeting and room to grow into bigger plans.
Think twice if: You want to try before you pay, or to start without an ID check.

## Thordata

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/thordata

Our take: One of the lowest 10 GB prices, at $18, with plans from 1 GB and city and ASN targeting; no SOCKS5, and it doesn’t say how it gets its IPs.
Best for: Small first purchases and budget scraping over HTTP(S), where city or ASN targeting is enough.
Think twice if: You need SOCKS5, or need to show clients where the IPs come from.

## Webshare

Page: https://proxyrange.com/providers/webshare
Prices (checked 2026-10-22, https://www.webshare.io/residential-proxy): 1 GB $3.50; 10 GB $27.50; 100 GB $225

Our take: ZIP and ASN targeting at $27.50 for 10 GB, under the market median of $40, from a provider Oxylabs has owned since 2022; it names no source for its IPs.
Best for: Budget scraping that still needs ZIP or ASN targeting.
Think twice if: You need to pay by PayPal or crypto, or want named sources for the IPs.
