Residential Proxies — Real Consumer IPs in 195+ Countries

ProxyGen residential proxies route your traffic through genuine consumer devices on real ISP connections, so target sites see an ordinary home visitor instead of a datacenter. Rotate on every request or hold a sticky session for up to 90 minutes, with country- and city-level targeting and pay-as-you-go pricing from $1.19/GB.

What is a residential proxy?

A residential proxy is an intermediary IP address that an Internet Service Provider assigned to a real household, rather than a server in a datacenter. Because the address belongs to a genuine consumer connection, requests routed through it look like ordinary human browsing — which is why residential proxies keep working on sites that block datacenter ranges outright.

How ProxyGen residential proxies work

  • Rotating or sticky: take a fresh IP on every request, or keep the same exit IP for up to 90 minutes for multi-step flows such as logins and checkouts.
  • Country & city targeting: pin the exit to a specific country, and in supported locations down to the city, for accurate local results.
  • HTTP, HTTPS & SOCKS5: drop a single endpoint into curl, Python, a browser profile or any tool that speaks standard proxy protocols.
  • Matched DNS resolution: hostnames resolve through the same exit IP your traffic uses, removing the geo-mismatch signal that exposes many proxy networks.
  • Instant activation, no subscription: buy bandwidth from $1.19/GB and start in seconds; traffic never expires while your account is active.

Residential proxy FAQ

Are residential proxies legal?

Yes, for legitimate commercial workloads such as price monitoring, ad verification and SEO research, provided you honour each target site's terms of service and applicable law. Abuse is grounds for immediate suspension.

Rotating or sticky — which should I use?

Use rotating IPs for high-volume scraping where each request can come from a different address; use a sticky session when a task spans several requests that must share one IP, such as a login or a multi-page checkout.

How is residential bandwidth priced?

Residential traffic is billed pay-as-you-go per gigabyte from $1.19/GB, with no monthly commitment. You top up bandwidth and it stays available until you use it.
