Two things decide whether a web proxy works for you, and neither appears on a pricing page: how the pool behaves against your specific target, and what happens to money you have paid but not spent.
What is on file for Homeproxy
You will find them at homeproxy.com. In our own records they sit in the web proxy category.
We price the providers we can source and date, and Homeproxy is not currently one of them. The rest of this page is about what to check when you read their pricing yourself.
When you do read it, note four things: the rate you actually qualify for today, the minimum purchase, whether unused balance expires, and whether failed requests are billed. Those four decide the real cost more than the headline does.
Their own description, read this week
The title tag on 9 September 2026 was "521 - Web server is down".
Reading the same page for the things buyers actually ask about:
We found no separate pricing page linked from the homepage, which usually means the price arrives by quotation.
That is the vendor speaking, not us. We print it because a claim with a date attached is at least falsifiable.
How long Homeproxy has been trading
The domain was registered on 28 June 2012, through NameCheap, Inc, which makes it about 14 years old. Checked against the registry on 9 September 2026. The registration currently runs to 28 June 2027.
None of it predicts success rate. It is here because domain age and archive depth are free to check, and a provider whose public record starts last quarter deserves a smaller first order.
What a pricing page leaves out
Shared or dedicated changes everything
An address you share carries the reputation of everyone else on it. That is acceptable for some work and fatal for anything involving a login. The price difference between shared and dedicated usually reflects exactly this.
The country total, and the country you use
Almost every provider claims almost every country. What differs is depth, and depth decides whether a single city or a single carrier is usable. No published figure tells you that.
The response time nobody advertises
Test the support channel before you need it. Ask something specific and technical, and judge both the speed and whether the answer came from somebody who understood the question.
The rows that decide it
Compare on these rows and ignore the feature lists on both sites:
| Question to ask | Homeproxy | HProxy |
|---|---|---|
| Entry price | Not verified by us, read their page | From $0.44/GB, pay as you go |
| Does unused balance expire? | Read their current terms | Never |
| Minimum commitment | On their own terms page | None |
| Identity checks | Not published clearly, ask before paying | Card orders are screened, and verification is sometimes requested |
| Targeting | Check the current terms, this one moves | Country, city and ISP |
| Free way to evaluate | Their terms page answers this | Free proxy list and proxy checker |
Where a cell points you at their terms, that is because the answer moves and a stale quotation would be worse than none. The missing row, in every table of this kind, is the one only your own measurement can fill.
The measurement that outranks every review
This costs less than a coffee and produces the only evidence that applies to your workload.
- Put a few dollars on each account. Trials are fine for a first look, but paid traffic is what you will actually be buying.
- Run them against the site you actually care about, using the code you actually run, within the same hour.
- Track the success rate and the bandwidth. A cheap gigabyte that fails half the time is not cheap.
- Run a sample of the addresses through an independent lookup, because advertised geography and actual geography differ more often than the market admits.
- Keep the winner, and repeat the whole thing quarterly, because pools age.
Comparable providers
We hold the same record for these, and the same honest limits apply to each:
- Helpthebirds alternatives
- Hidebuzz alternatives
- Hidefrom alternatives
- Hidefromyou alternatives
- Hidelayer alternatives
- Hideschools alternatives
What we sell, stated plainly
If you want our side of it: $0.44 per GB for residential, pay as you go, nothing expires, and the free tools stay free. We would rather you measured than believed us, which is why the test comes before this paragraph rather than after it.
