Residential - perGB
Everything about the Residential Per GB plan: coverage, access points, targeting, your credentials, changing your IP, and generating proxy lists.
Residential Per GB is a monthly data package that gives you access to Proxidize's entire pool of residential IPs, in more than 190 countries.
The IPs come from real homes, sourced ethically and with consent through Proxidize's bandwidth sharing app and partner apps, which is what makes them the product to use for anything outside the United States.
What you get
The IPs
Real residential ISP addresses from homes worldwide
Coverage
190+ countries, with city and ISP level targeting
Packages
25 GB to 10,000 GB, priced per GB on the Buy tab
Your data
Unused data rolls over
Pool access
The entire residential 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.
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.
Deleting one
Hover an access point in the list and press the × that appears.
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.
Setting up an access point
Select an access point, then use the controls along the top to shape it.
Type
HTTP or SOCKS5
Country
Any of the 190+ countries, or Random Country
City
A specific city in that country, or Random City
ISP
A specific ISP, or Random Network
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.
Cities and ISPs are listed dynamically for the country you pick, so what you see is what the pool can currently serve there.
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 residential ISP rather than by us, so how long one lasts is not something we control.
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.
