# ProxShift

> ProxShift is a proxy provider that sells four networks from one prepaid wallet funded in cryptocurrency: residential proxies (70M+ IPs in 199 countries and territories, per GB, from $2.45/GB), ISP proxies (550K+ static residential IPs with unlimited traffic in 33 countries, from $0.99 per IP per month), dedicated datacenter proxies (550K+ IPs, 60+ cities in 37 countries, from $0.70 per IP per month) and 4G/5G mobile proxies (4.9M+ IPs in 100+ countries, from $2.62/GB, dedicated devices from $31.05 a month). No subscription, no identity check, traffic that never expires, HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 with unlimited threads.

Key facts:
- Pool sizes, as of September 2026: 70M+ residential, 550K+ ISP, 550K+ datacenter and 4.9M+ mobile IPs. Residential and mobile figures count distinct IP addresses available over a month, not the number online at one instant; ISP and datacenter figures are the address inventory that orders are drawn from. As of September 2026.
- Payment: cryptocurrency only (BTC, ETH, USDT, USDC, LTC, XMR, SOL, TRX, DOGE and more) into a USD prepaid wallet; minimum top-up $20; no cards, no identity documents.
- Residential: 12 volume tiers from $2.45/GB at 1 GB to $0.95/GB at 10 TB; the tier of a purchase applies to every GB in it; one rate worldwide; traffic never expires.
- ISP (static residential): per IP, unlimited traffic, terms of 24 hours ($0.75), 30 days ($1.12), 60 days ($1.06/month) and 90 days ($0.99/month) in the United States; other zones at published multiples; volume discounts of 5 % (10+), 10 % (50+), 20 % (100+) and 25 % (500+).
- Datacenter: dedicated IPs with 100 GB of pooled traffic per IP per month; 30 days $0.80, 60 days $0.76/month, 90 days $0.70/month in North America; Europe ×1.15, rest of the world ×1.40; same volume discounts as ISP.
- Mobile: rotating 4G/5G pool from $2.62/GB (2 GB) down to $1.58/GB (500 GB); dedicated devices $69/month in the United States and Canada (24-hour test $5.90), Western Europe and Australia ×0.80, Eastern Europe, Türkiye, Brazil, South Africa and Asia ×0.50.
- Targeting: country (-cc-), US state (-state-), city (-city-) and ASN (-asn-) as username parameters; sticky sessions with -sid- and -ttl- from 1 minute to 24 hours; rotation on every new connection otherwise.
- Gateways: res.proxshift.com and mob.proxshift.com on port 9000 (HTTP/S) and 9001 (SOCKS5); dedicated addresses as ip:8000 (HTTP/S) and ip:8001 (SOCKS5); username-password or IP-whitelist authentication; unlimited concurrent connections.
- Sourcing and rules: residential capacity from opt-in, paid pools; acceptable use policy enforced (no attacks, fraud, unauthorized access or anything illegal where the user or the target operate).
- Transparency: the documentation is the product contract; every price on the site comes from one public grid; a status page probes every system every five minutes.

- [IP whitelisting](https://proxshift.com/glossary/ip-whitelisting): Authenticating by source address: connections from your registered servers need no password.
- [Remote DNS resolution](https://proxshift.com/glossary/remote-dns): Letting the proxy resolve hostnames, so DNS lookups happen where the exit is and never leak locally.
- [TLS passthrough](https://proxshift.com/glossary/tls-passthrough): The proxy forwards encrypted bytes without terminating TLS; the website's certificate reaches you intact.
- [UDP and proxies](https://proxshift.com/glossary/udp-proxying): Most proxy networks carry TCP only; UDP (and therefore QUIC and HTTP/3) needs a VPN or a special service.
- [IPv4 and IPv6 proxies](https://proxshift.com/glossary/ipv4-vs-ipv6): IPv4 addresses are scarce and universally accepted; IPv6 ones are plentiful but many targets ignore or block them.
- [Proxy port](https://proxshift.com/glossary/proxy-port): The TCP port that selects the protocol on a gateway: one for HTTP(S), one for SOCKS5.
- [IP reputation](https://proxshift.com/glossary/ip-reputation): A score websites attach to an address from its history, owner and behaviour, deciding how much to trust it.

- [Geo-blocking](https://proxshift.com/glossary/geo-blocking): Serving different content, or none, depending on the visitor's country; a local exit sees what locals see.
- [WebRTC leak](https://proxshift.com/glossary/webrtc-leak): A browser revealing your real IP through WebRTC while page traffic goes through the proxy.

- [Traffic expiry](https://proxshift.com/glossary/traffic-expiry): Whether gigabytes you bought but did not use are lost after a period or kept indefinitely.
- [Prepaid wallet](https://proxshift.com/glossary/prepaid-wallet): A balance you fund in advance and spend on traffic and addresses, with no card on file.
- [Minimum top-up](https://proxshift.com/glossary/minimum-top-up): The smallest amount you can add to a wallet; effectively the price of a real test.
- [Term billing](https://proxshift.com/glossary/term-billing): Paying per address for a fixed period, with a lower monthly rate on longer terms.
- [Location zone pricing](https://proxshift.com/glossary/location-zone-pricing): Dedicated addresses priced by country group, because their supply cost differs; traffic priced the same everywhere.

- [Latency and response time](https://proxshift.com/glossary/latency): The extra time a request takes because it travels through the proxy and its exit.
- [Throughput](https://proxshift.com/glossary/throughput): How many bytes per second a connection can move; wired exits are fast, household and cellular exits vary.
- [Gateway error codes](https://proxshift.com/glossary/gateway-errors): Status codes returned by the proxy itself, before the destination, and what each one asks you to change.
- [HTTP 407 Proxy Authentication Required](https://proxshift.com/glossary/http-407): The proxy did not accept your credentials, or none were sent; the destination was never contacted.
- [Target timeout](https://proxshift.com/glossary/target-timeout): The destination did not answer within the gateway's or the client's time budget; usually the target, sometimes the exit.
