Proxy price statistics
What proxy providers charge, worked out from our own records: the prices we read on each provider's own price page, by hand and by a daily check, between July 25 and October 29, 2026. Each figure is one sentence that says how many providers or plans it covers, where their prices were read and when, so it can be quoted as it stands. Each has its own link.

How the figures are worked out
- What is counted. Plans whose price we read on the provider's own price page: by a daily check where the page publishes prices as text or data, by hand where it does not. Each price keeps the date it was read, and each sentence gives the oldest and newest of the dates behind it.
- Prices for an amount. For 1, 100 or 1,000 GB of traffic, or 10 IPs, every plan is priced the way you would buy it: the smallest package or set of packages that covers the amount, or the published rate times the amount, with monthly, one-time and prepaid plans all competing. A package bigger than the amount counts at its full price. Each provider then counts once, at its cheapest way to buy that amount.
- Per GB and per IP. That price is divided by the amount: dollars per GB bought, or per IP for a month. IP plans count only when they are rented by the month.
- Median, lowest, ratio and share. The median is the middle of the providers' prices (the average of the middle two when their number is even); the lowest is the cheapest of them. A ratio or a percentage is worked out from the two medians quoted beside it, rounded to one decimal place or to the whole percent.
- Left out. Free plans, prices given only on request or only after choosing options in a calculator, prices on which the provider's own pages disagree or that we could not read, and providers we no longer list. Prices exclude VAT where the provider shows it separately.
- Traffic expiry. Counted over the plans sold by the GB that show a price; unlimited plans are left out. A plan whose page does not say how long its traffic lasts counts as not saying, never as never expiring.
- Price changes. A change counts only when two readings in a row of the same plan came from the same page, read the same fields and priced the same package. A package price that moves by more than half from one reading to the next is held until it has been checked by hand. "Read 30 or more days apart" counts the plans whose first and newest readings are at least 30 days apart.
- Updates. The figures are worked out again every time the prices are checked, by the same code that builds the comparisons. A figure that changes changes this page's date; a newer read on its own does not.
The rows behind each figure are on the page linked under it. What each type costs at every amount is in the proxy price index, every change the daily check recorded is in the price history, and how a price is read and dated is in how we check prices.
