Compare the Per Proxy and Per GB access models: dedicated proxies vs pay-as-you-go pool access to pick the right one.
Mobile Proxies come in two access models: Per Proxy and Per GB. (Residential is Per GB only.) This page explains the difference so you can pick the right one.
Per Proxy: gives you your own individually assigned proxies with full rotation control, best for per-account, long-running workflows.
Per GB: gives you usage-based access to the shared pool through Access Points — best for variable or large-scale work where you pay only for data.

Mobile proxies are pooled: each Per Proxy proxy is dedicated to you the vast majority of the time, with a small chance of temporary sharing on congested locations. See How Proxy Assignment Works on perProxy plans.
Choose Per Proxy when you want your own proxies that you control directly, with a rotate button, scheduled rotation, and a rotation URL, for workflows like social media and multi-account management. Note that mobile proxies are pooled: each is dedicated to you the vast majority of the time, with a small chance of temporary sharing on congested locations.
Choose Per GB when your usage varies or you need to scale, and you'd rather subscribe to a data package than pay per proxy. You subscribe to a monthly data package (starting at 50 GB), create Access Points that all draw from that balance, and change the session key to pull a new IP. Need more data? Purchase an additional package.
Residential proxies also use the Per GB model.
