Instead of paying for a fixed number of proxies, you buy data and use it across as many proxies as you like, which suits variable workloads, short campaigns, and large scale scraping and automation. Open Mobile Per GB ### What you get | | | | --------------- | ------------------------------------------------------- | | **The IPs** | Real 4G and 5G SIMs on premium U.S. mobile ISPs | | **Coverage** | United States only, with city and ISP level targeting | | **Packages** | 25 GB to 10,000 GB, priced per GB on the **Buy** tab | | **Your data** | Expires one month after purchase and does not roll over | | **Pool access** | The entire mobile pool, with no fixed proxy count | Each package is its own monthly subscription with its own billing date. To add data, subscribe to another package. To reduce it, cancel a package you no longer need, and its remaining data stays available until that billing period ends.
#### Watching your balance The header of every tab shows how much data you have left and how much you have used. **Set alert** beside it opens **Usage alert**, where you can turn on an email warning and pick the threshold it fires at, so you hear about a low balance before a job stops.
*** ### Access points An access point defines how your tools connect to the pool. Everything you run goes through one, and they all draw from the same data balance. Every account starts with one called **Default**, and you can add as many as you need. Most people make one per project or per tool, so they can target and rotate them independently. The **Access Point** dropdown lists yours in two groups. #### Named A named access point has its own username and password, generated for you. Open the dropdown, choose **+ Create Access Point**, stay on the **User / Pass** tab, and give it a name using letters, numbers and underscores. It is ready the moment you press **Create**. #### IP whitelist An IP whitelist access point authenticates by your public IP instead, with no credentials at all. Create it the same way, on the **IP Whitelist** tab, by entering an IP address or using the **Add my IP** shortcut. Each IP you add becomes its own access point, listed by address. Its **Proxy Details** shows the host, port and whitelisted IP rather than a username and password, and the proxy list is just host and port. {% hint style="warning" %} **IP whitelisting authenticates by source IP alone.** If your public IP changes, whether from a network switch, a VPN, or an ISP reassignment, access stops until you add the new address. On connections whose IP changes often, a named access point is the more reliable choice. {% endhint %}
#### Deleting one Hover an access point in the list and press the **×** that appears. {% hint style="warning" %} Deleting an access point is permanent, and the name can never be used again on your account. Anything still pointed at it stops working immediately. {% endhint %} *** ### Setting up an access point Select an access point, then use the controls along the top to shape it. | Control | What it does | | -------------- | ---------------------------------------- | | **Type** | HTTP or SOCKS5 | | **Country** | United States, since Mobile is U.S. only | | **City** | A specific U.S. city, or **Random City** | | **ISP** | A specific mobile ISP, or **Random** | | **Stickiness** | **Randomize IP** or **Sticky IP** | | **Hostname** | **DNS Hostname** or **IP Hostname** | Changes save to that access point as you make them. There is no save step, and each access point keeps its own settings, so switching between them switches the whole row. {% hint style="info" %} **Changing these settings also changes that access point's username.** If you have already copied its credentials into a tool, copy them again after you make a change, or the old ones will no longer match. {% endhint %} Available cities and ISPs are listed dynamically, so what you see is what the pool can currently serve. #### Targeting and the size of your pool Per GB reaches the entire pool, and every filter you add narrows the part of it you are drawing from.
*** ### Your credentials **Proxy Details** holds the host, port, username and password for the selected access point, each with a copy button. The button beside the password regenerates it. **Test with cURL** below it gives you a ready to run command built from your current settings, which returns the IP your request went out on. Run it twice to see stickiness working.
*** ### Changing your IP Per GB has no rotate button and no rotation URL, because you are not holding a fixed proxy. Your IP comes from the pool, and **Stickiness** decides how long you keep it. * **Randomize IP** gives you a new IP on each request, which suits scraping and high volume automation. * **Sticky IP** holds one IP for the session, identified by a session key in your username. In Sticky IP your username carries a session segment, `-s-` followed by a token. Change that token to any other value and you get a different proxy from the pool, which is what makes large lists scriptable. **Refresh Session IDs**, at the top right of **Proxy Details**, appears only in Sticky IP and replaces every session key at once. Sticky IPs are held by the mobile ISP rather than by us, and typically last around 1 to 4 hours. *** ### Generating a proxy list **Formatted Proxy List** turns the selected access point into a list you can paste into a tool. Choose how many rows you want, pick the line format, either `hostname:port:username:password` or `username:password@hostname:port`, then copy the list or download it as a file. The ports selector decides whether every row shares a port or gets its own. **Static** gives them all the same port, and **Dynamic** gives each row its own, counting down from `20000` for HTTP and up from `20002` for SOCKS5. Reach for **Dynamic** when a tool refuses to accept two proxies on the same port. {% hint style="info" %} To build one list that mixes different cities, ISPs, access points, or generate a list of a huge number of proxies, use the [perGB - Session Builder](/proxidize-proxies/pergb-session-builder.md). {% endhint %} *** ### Quick FAQ
What happens to data I do not use? On Mobile Per GB it expires at the end of the package's billing month and does not roll over. Buy the size you expect to use, and add another package if you run short.
How many proxies do I get? There is no fixed number. Per GB gives you access to the whole pool, and you draw as many proxies from it as your data allows.
My credentials stopped working. What changed? Most often the access point's settings were changed after the credentials were copied, which rewrites its username. Copy the current username and password from **Proxy Details** again. If it is an IP whitelist access point, check whether your public IP has changed.
Why do I keep getting the same IPs? Usually because the access point is filtered tightly. A single city plus a single ISP can leave a small pool behind it. Loosen a filter or switch to **Random City** and the repeats stop.
Can I use proxies outside the United States? Not on Mobile. Mobile proxies are U.S. only. For any other country, use [Residential - perGB](/proxidize-proxies/residential-pergb.md).
