Benefits
Bandwidth first, everything else second
Datacenter is the cheapest throughput on the site. It is a deliberate trade: you give up IP reputation and get speed and predictable cost back.
Cost that does not move
You rent addresses by the month, not gigabytes by the request. A pipeline that doubles its volume costs exactly the same as it did last month.
Delivered in minutes
Provisioning is automatic. Pay, export the list, and point your workers at it. No KYC step and no waiting on a sales call.
Pricing
Datacenter proxies: rates and packages
The rate falls as the order grows, and the balance you buy never expires.
| IPs | Shared pool, per IP | Private, per IP | Discount |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 to 9 | — | $0.72 | — |
| 10 to 49 | $0.52 | $0.69 | — |
| 50 to 99 | $0.48 | $0.62 | 8% |
| 100 to 249 | $0.45 | $0.58 | 13% |
| 250 to 499 | $0.39 | $0.50 | 25% |
| 500 to 999 | $0.36 | $0.47 | 31% |
| 1000 and up | $0.33 | $0.43 | 37% |
Rates are per IP per month. Shared pools start at 10 addresses; private addresses can be ordered singly. Term discounts to 15% at 12 months stack on top of the volume rate.
Every plan includes
- SOCKS5 and HTTP(S) on adjacent ports
- Unlimited traffic on 1 Gbps uplinks
- 99.9% uptime, ~0.25s average response
- IPv4 and IPv6 addresses available
- user:pass or IP whitelist authentication
- Bulk export and REST API access
- Country selection at checkout
- Free replacement within 24 hours
Compare types
How this compares with the alternatives
The attributes that decide which proxy type a job needs, side by side.
| Attribute | Datacenter | Static ISP | Residential |
|---|---|---|---|
| IP type | Server networks | ISP-issued, datacenter hosted | Home ISP subscribers |
| Geo targeting | Country | Country and city | Country, city, ZIP, ASN |
| Session control | Permanent | Permanent | Per request or 30 min sticky |
| Block rate | High on protected sites | Low to moderate | Low |
| Response time | ~0.25s | ~0.3s | ~0.5s |
| Billing | Per IP, unlimited traffic | Per IP, unlimited traffic | Per gigabyte |
| Price | $0.36 | $3 | $2.80 |
If your target runs commercial bot protection, datacenter addresses will be scored and blocked. Move up to ISP or residential for those jobs.

FAQ
Datacenter proxies: common questions
Billing, sessions, sourcing and what happens when a target still blocks you.
- Unlimited traffic on 1 Gbps ports, no gigabyte meter
- Shared pools for cost and private addresses for clean reputation, on the same infrastructure
- IPv4 and IPv6 from one dashboard and one balance
- Term discounts to 15% at 12 months, volume discounts from 10 addresses
- Straight advice on when not to buy them
What is the difference between a shared pool and a private address?
A shared pool address starts at $0.52 per month, is used by a small number of customers at once and is ordered from 10 addresses, falling to $0.33 at 1000. A private address at $0.72 per month is single tenant and can be ordered on its own. Shared is cheaper; private gives you a clean reputation nobody else can spend.
Which targets should I not use datacenter proxies on?
Anything behind commercial bot protection, and most social platforms. Those systems classify server ranges quickly. Use residential for scraping protected sites and mobile for account work.
How is this different from your IPv4 product?
The IPv4 page covers dedicated address ordering by country and quantity. This page covers the same infrastructure sold for throughput, including shared pools and IPv6 blocks. If you want a specific address family, the IPv4 and IPv6 pages carry the exact ladders.
Is bandwidth really unlimited?
Yes. Ports are 1 Gbps and shared at the node level, with no monthly gigabyte allowance. Sustained saturation of a whole node is the only case where we contact you, and we offer a dedicated port instead of throttling.
How quickly are addresses delivered?
Within minutes of payment clearing. Card and PayPal confirm instantly; crypto is credited after the first network confirmation.
Move your bulk jobs onto unmetered ports
Order a block, export the list, and point your workers at it. Replacement is free within 24 hours if an address arrives blocked.
