Two things decide whether a proxy provider 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 PacketFlip
PacketFlip trades at packetflip.com.
We have no verified current rate for PacketFlip on file. Printing a guess would make this page worse than useless, so the price row below is empty and the reading list is not.
Find the rate available with no commitment, then find the cheapest rate and what it costs to reach. The distance between those two tells you what kind of vendor you are dealing with.
PacketFlip in its own words
Their homepage title, read on 9 September 2026: "Packet Flip Anonymous Proxies".
Taken from the same page, on the same day:
Their pricing page is titled "Pricing example · Bootstrap".
Nothing there has been tested. It is a record of what the page said on the day, which is the honest limit of what a page like this can offer without a measurement.
How far back the record goes
The domain was registered on 1 July 2008, through Name.com, Inc, which makes it about 18 years old. The lookup behind those dates ran on 23 April 2026. As things stand the domain is held to 1 July 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 you still do not know after reading their site
Match the units before anything else
Residential is normally billed per gigabyte, datacenter and ISP per address, mobile per day or per port. Setting one against another produces a number that means nothing. Convert both sides into the unit your own workload consumes.
The day something goes wrong
Support quality is invisible until it is the only thing that matters. A cheap provider that takes three days to answer a routing problem has cost you more than the saving, and no pricing page reveals that.
Why an old benchmark is wrong
Supply changes hands quietly in this industry. The network behind a brand can be replaced with no announcement, which is why a benchmark is a perishable good and a re-test is cheap insurance.
The two of us, on the questions that matter
Compare on these rows and ignore the feature lists on both sites:
| Question to ask | PacketFlip | 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 test that beats this page
It is a small amount of money for an answer that is actually about your target.
- 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.

Our own position
Our end of it is a wallet, four proxy types and no contract. Residential begins at $0.44 per GB and the balance does not expire. The free proxy list and checker are open to anyone, and they are the fastest way to see how we treat measurement before you spend anything.
