IPCola (ipcola.com) sells rotating residential traffic and static IPs, and its homepage prices them from $0.8 a GB and $1.2 a month. Underneath, the site is a website template that still shows its seams. Its menus link the template's demo pages for gyms and NFT marketplaces, and its texts include placeholder copy. From April 2023 to at least October 2024 its homepage price table offered web hosting: "1 Website", "1 Email Account" and "Limited Bandwidth (100 GB)". Its help page on pay as you go repeats, word for word, a 2022 help page of Smartproxy, now Decodo, down to its price of $12.50 a GB. No page names a company. DataImpulse charged $1 a GB the same day.
What IPCola sells
Three cards on the homepage carry the offer: "Static Ip/Proxy" at $1.2 a month, "Rotating Ip" at $0.8 a GB with "225 Countries Available", and "Direct Connect Ip" at $1.8 a month with unlimited traffic. Each card adds residential and datacenter options, SOCKS5 and HTTP. The cards have not changed since the archive's copy of January 1, 2025. The page does not say how large a package the $0.8 needs.
The help pages add detail. Rotating proxies are billed per GB through traffic packages; static proxies are billed per IP and month, as ISP or datacenter addresses, and "IPCola ISP pool has 16k IPs in US". The FAQ allows API calls "one time per second", with up to 900 IPs at a time, and logins by whitelisted IP or by user and password.
The Telegram channel, opened on January 26, 2026, carries the newer prices. In February it wrote "Each IP costs only $1.8", and on July 6, 2026, it announced a cut for static IPs: "Previous Price: $1.80/ip", "New Price: $1.50/ip". The homepage card still read $1.8 for a direct-connect IP on October. 14
A template that still shows
The page code names Shreethemes as its author, and the texts name the template: "Start working with Techwind that can provide everything you need". The menus link pages such as index-gym.html, index-nft.html and index-restaurent.html, and the page called changelog lists the template's own releases, such as "NFT Marketplace (index-nft.html) demo". The homepage still prints the filler line "Dummy text is text that is used in the publishing industry". The affiliate page prints six quoted sentences about Lorem Ipsum.
The longest-lived leftover sat under the heading "Hosting / Server Rates". From the first archived shop of April 2023 to the copy of October 11, 2024, the homepage offered three hosting plans at $3.99, $14.99 and $29.99 a month, with lines such as "1X Processing Power & Memory". Proxy prices replaced them by January 1, 2025.
Numbers that disagree
IPCola's pages state the size of its network three ways, and its reach three more:
The country count runs from 195 to "225 Countries Available", thirty more than the homepage text itself gives. The About page dates the company twice. One line says "We've been unlocking publicly available data and creating data gathering tools since 2012", the next "Founded in 2022". The domain ipcola.com was registered on October 12, 2022, and the first archived copy of the shop is from April 2023. The About page also claims "team members from Microsoft, Google, Amazon, Meta and other global companies", with no names.
Another seller's help text
IPCola's help page "Pay As You Go" tells customers to "click the toggle button to buy 1 GB for $12.50", paid from a "Smart Wallet", with traffic bought in 1 GB steps at 90% of the limit. The Internet Archive's copy of Smartproxy's help page of the same name, of August 18, 2022, carries the same sentences: the same price, the same wallet, the same 90%, the same promise to answer an e-mail within an hour. IPCola's help pages carry the description "Bandwidth trading platform built on blockchain."
A buyer cannot tell from IPCola's own pages whether a gigabyte costs $0.8 or $12.50. The price inside the dashboard, after sign-up, is the one that counts.

Who runs IPCola
No page we read names a company, an address or a country. The contact page offers a Telegram account, the help pages the address admin@ipcola.com, and the privacy policy, "last updated on December 18, 2022", speaks only of IPCola. The first archived shop of April 2023 carried a Chinese title, calling the company a global IP resource provider and a one-stop cross-border solution. Many of the partner links on the homepage go to antidetect browsers, five of them on Chinese .cn domains, several with referral codes. The homepage says crypto payments are accepted.
The fine print
Refunds in three cases. On April 2, 2026, the channel wrote: "We only provide full refunds for the following three cases": "Incorrect ip location", "High fraud score" and "IP unable to connect". "For all other situations and any other reasons, we do not offer refunds". Customers press the Replace ip and Refund buttons themselves; the channel says administrators cannot replace an IP by hand.
Commission. The affiliate page promises that "IPCola Affiliates make the largest commissions in the industry". The channel, in April 2026, offered "25% commission on every successful referral".
How it compares
DataImpulse charged $1 a GB for residential traffic on October 14, 2026, at every size, with traffic that never expires and a company named in its records. IPcook charged $3.20 for 1 GB and $0.80 a GB from 1,000 GB the same day. IPCola's $0.8 would be the lowest of the three if the dashboard confirms it, but its own help page says $12.50. For a static address, Proxy6 charged $1.50 for a dedicated IPv4 address for a month on October 11, the price IPCola's channel now gives for its static IPs.
Where HProxy fits
We sell residential traffic $0.50 per GB, from a balance that never expires. Obsidian UG (haftungsbeschränkt), named in our terms, sells it. Before you buy a package anywhere, try a few addresses with our free proxy checker.
Which one to pick
- IPCola only after you have seen the gigabyte price inside its dashboard and the refund rule fits you: three cases, nothing else.
- DataImpulse for residential traffic at a flat $1 a GB.
- Proxy6 for a dedicated IPv4 address at $1.50 a month.
What we could not find out
The real price of a gigabyte: the homepage says $0.8, the help page $12.50, and the dashboard needs an account. Who runs IPCola, and from where. Whether its residential addresses come from its own network or from another seller. Nothing was bought and no IPCola proxy was tested. These pages are next due for a reading by January 14, 2027.
