Leaving Airproxy: the numbers side by side

Comparing a Airproxy alternative? The published numbers, the questions their pricing page leaves open, and a ten minute test that beats every review.

Free proxies won't hold up here.

Shared datacenter IPs get flagged and dropped fast. When it has to hold, gaming, streaming, accounts, you need mobile and residential IPs that read as a real device, from $0.44/GB, pay as you go.

Residential proxies

This page exists because the search you ran has almost no honest results. Nearly every page ranking for "Airproxy alternative" earns a commission on the answer it gives you. We earn money if you pick us, which we are stating in the first paragraph rather than the footer.

What we can and cannot tell you about Airproxy

The company behind the name sits at airproxy.io.

What we do not hold is a current, sourced price for Airproxy. Rather than print a figure we cannot stand behind, this page leaves it out and tells you what to look for when you read their page yourself.

Read their page for the reachable rate rather than the headline, the minimum spend, the expiry clause and the billing treatment of blocked requests. Write down the date, because all four move.

What Airproxy says about itself today

As of 9 September 2026 the tab reads "Buy Mobile 4G Proxies, AIRPROXY". The description they publish for search engines reads: "Dedicated mobile proxies with unlimited bandwidth. Custom IP rotation, dedicated sim card, API access and up to 90mbps speeds."

Reading the same page for the things buyers actually ask about:

The product lines named on that page are mobile. Payment methods mentioned: crypto. We found no separate pricing page linked from the homepage, which usually means the price arrives by quotation.

Those are claims, and claims are free. They earn their place here only because the date makes them checkable later.

The domain record

The domain was registered on 14 September 2018, through NameCheap, Inc, which makes it about 7 years old. Those dates come from a registry query on 23 April 2026. Their registration is booked through 14 September 2026.

Read that as a floor rather than a recommendation. Longevity says somebody has kept paying the registrar, and in a market with this much churn that is worth ten seconds of your attention.

Where published figures stop being useful

The expiry question

Find out whether unspent traffic rolls over, expires, or expires only on some plans. The answer changes the effective rate by more than most of the price differences buyers spend their time arguing about.

What the lowest rate actually costs

Treat a required call with a salesperson as a cost. It delays the work, it usually arrives with an annual term attached, and it exists because the published price is negotiable in one direction only.

What actually caps your throughput

Bandwidth is rarely the constraint on a real workload. Concurrent connections, requests per second and per-session caps are, and they are frequently buried in the documentation rather than the pricing page.

A comparison that admits what it cannot say

The rows below are the ones that change what you pay and whether the job runs:

Blanks in that table are deliberate. We print what we read and date it, and leave the rest empty rather than repeating something we cannot stand behind.

How to settle it yourself in ten minutes

Run this before you commit any volume. It replaces every opinion on this page, including ours.

  1. Open an account on each and add the smallest amount they take. Skip the trial if a paid unit is cheap enough to buy outright.
  2. Point both at your real target, through your real tool, on the same day, with the same mix of requests.
  3. Log successes, failures and gigabytes used. Cost per successful request is the figure you are after.
  4. Verify a slice of the exits independently. Country labels in this market are self-reported and are not always right.
  5. Buy the one that won on your target, and diarise a re-test in three months.

Where HProxy sits in that test

We sell residential proxies from $0.44 per GB with no subscription and a balance that does not expire, plus ISP, mobile and datacenter in the same account. That is the pitch, and the test above is a better judge of it than this paragraph.

Frequently asked questions

How do I compare two providers fairly?
Match the units first, because residential is billed per gigabyte, datacenter and ISP per address, and mobile per day or per port. Then compare the rate you can actually reach today rather than the volume tier behind a commitment. Finish by measuring the success rate on your own target, since a cheap request that fails costs more than a dearer one that works.
How is HProxy different?
The models differ more than the products do. HProxy is pay as you go from a balance you top up when you want, the balance does not expire, there is no subscription unless the optional discount suits you, and residential starts at $0.44 per GB with city and ISP targeting included. Whether that beats a tiered plan depends on your usage pattern, which a short test settles.
Do I have to talk to sales or sign a contract to switch?
Not with us. You can sign up, add funds and send traffic without a call, a minimum or a subscription. Whether another provider requires any of those is on their own pricing page and is worth reading, because a required commitment is part of the price even when it is not part of the rate.
How often should I re-test a provider?
Quarterly is a reasonable rhythm for most workloads, and immediately after a noticeable drop in success rate. Pools are rebuilt, suppliers change and detection improves, so a benchmark from last year describes a network that no longer exists.
Does a bigger pool mean better results?
No. Your job meets only the exits it draws, in the countries it needs, against one target's defences. Freshness and rotation policy move the outcome far more than the headline total, and pool totals across this market are counted generously and rarely audited.

Proxies that don't die mid-job

Residential, ISP, datacenter and mobile, verified by the same engine that runs tens of millions of checks. They read as a real device and hold up under load. Pay as you go, and your balance never expires. $0.44/GB is the 2,000 GB+ rate; a single gigabyte is $0.50/GB, with no minimum order.
