Overview

Start with the connection you actually need.

Use country targeting for broad regional checks. Choose timed sessions when your workflow needs continuity, or the Geo tier when state or city targeting matters. The details belong up front.

Country or granular geo

Country targeting starts with Essential. State and city targeting requires CleanProxy + Geo and HTTP proxy headers.

Sessions with honest limits

Timed and sticky sessions request continuity. Residential networks can still change IPs; no tier guarantees a permanent address.

Compatible by design

HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5 TCP support. SOCKS5 does not carry UDP or the Geo tier’s granular targeting headers.

Tiers

Choose your tier.
Use one balance.

Switch tiers with your existing credentials. Each price below is the full usage rate for that tier, in USD per GB. Usage includes data relayed in both directions plus a small per-connection overhead. See our metering policy for exclusions.

Essential

An affordable starting point for everyday scraping, research and regional checks. Country targeting and best-effort sessions.

Country targeting; best-effort sessions. Choose Standard if you need a timed session.

$1.50/GB

Standard

Rotating residential IPs with country targeting and configurable session duration.

Country targeting; timed sessions for flows that need repeat requests. An exit IP can still change.

$2.50/GB

CleanProxy™

Reputation-screened residential IPs for tasks where IP reputation matters.

Reputation screening plus timed sessions. Screening does not guarantee a website will accept your requests.

$3.50/GB

Sticky Clean

Screened residential sessions for repeat requests. Use a session identifier to request a consistent exit IP.

Screened sessions for multi-step flows. Connection changes can still move the session to another IP.

$3.50/GB

CleanProxy™ + Geo

Reputation-screened residential IPs with state or city targeting through supported HTTP clients.

Granular targeting requires HTTP proxy headers; it is unavailable through SOCKS5. Narrower targets depend on available IPs.

$4/GB

Mobile

Carrier IPs for mobile app testing, regional checks and tasks that call for a mobile connection.

For tasks that require mobile IPs, with country targeting and timed sessions. Location and session continuity depend on availability.

$5/GB

Sessions and locations depend on available IPs. No tier guarantees one address.

All six tiers support HTTP/HTTPS and SOCKS5 for TCP connections. SOCKS5 does not support UDP or granular location headers. Check your client and target before scaling up. Check protocol limits.

Workflow

From balance
to connection.

Choose a tier. Keep your credentials.

01

Fund your balance

Choose a one-off top-up or monthly credits. Unused proxy credit does not expire.

02

Pick the right tier

Use Essential for country targeting, Standard for timed sessions or a screened tier for reputation checks.

03

Connect and check

Copy credentials from your dashboard, configure your client and verify the exit before using it.

Setup

One request.
A working starting point.

Find your account key, copy an example, and check the result before connecting your own application.

01

Find your connection details

Your account key is the proxy username. The proxy password chooses the tier and supported settings.

02

Copy a small request

Start with Standard over HTTP. The quickstart includes cURL and Python, with country and session options.

03

Check the response

See the expected result, check your usage and find help for common connection errors.

First requestStandard · HTTP
curl --proxy \
  'http://YOUR_PROXY_KEY:standard@proxy.privatebyte.com:3128' \
  'https://api.ipify.org?format=json'
Illustrative response{ "ip": "203.0.113.42" }

This reserved documentation address is an example. Your request returns the exit IP it used.

Use your own account key and proxy credit. An IP check does not guarantee access to another site or a fixed exit IP.

Screening

When IP reputation matters,
choose a screened tier.

CleanProxy tiers use multiple reputation signals to help filter flagged IPs. This can help with targets that consider IP reputation when deciding whether to allow a request.

Screening does not guarantee access. Websites also consider request patterns, account history and other signals.

Funding

Top up once.
Or keep credit coming monthly.

Use one-off top-ups for occasional tasks, or choose a monthly credit subscription for regular workloads. Both fund the same balance, so you can choose any tier when you connect.

Monthly credit

A subscription that adds credit each month. You see the price and bonus before checkout, and credit arrives when each renewal is paid.

Payments use your selected currency; your shared balance and per-GB usage rates are in USD. Credit never expires. Usage is deducted at your chosen tier’s rate.

Get free proxy credit in your dashboard before buying. When available, free credit is for eligible new proxy users with a verified email, once per account. Read our refund policy, terms and cancellation conditions, and acceptable-use policy.

Answers

A few things worth knowing.

Will I keep the same IP for days?+

No tier guarantees an unchanged IP. A session identifier requests continuity, but residential network availability can change the exit. Choose another product if a dedicated fixed IP is essential.

Can I choose a US state or city?+

CleanProxy + Geo supports granular targeting through HTTP proxy headers, subject to availability. This is not supported through SOCKS5.

What traffic is billed?+

Traffic in both directions plus a small per-connection overhead is metered. Consult the published metering policy before estimating large jobs.

Does a screened proxy guarantee website access?+

No. Reputation screening does not guarantee acceptance by a particular website or application.
