Best SOCKS5 proxies: the cheapest SOCKS5 plan of each type
SOCKS5 passes any kind of connection through the proxy, not only web pages, so bots, game clients, messaging apps and scrapers that do not speak HTTP can use it. Each pick is the cheapest plan whose provider's own page says it supports SOCKS5, at an amount you can change; a plan whose page does not say is left out. We don't test speed or success rates.

How these picks are made
Every price comes from the provider's own pricing page and keeps the date it was checked. A pick is the lowest checkout that covers your amount among plans that meet its need; a plan whose page does not say whether it meets the need is left out. We run no speed or success-rate tests, and no provider pays for a place or a better description. How we check prices.
