PremProxy alternatives: where the lists actually come from

A PremProxy alternative, judged by a competitor who says so up front: the record we hold, the gaps in it, and the test that outranks this page.

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.

People arrive at a free proxy list comparison for one of two reasons: the price moved, or the thing stopped working. This page assumes you are in one of those two positions with PremProxy and wants to be useful in ten minutes rather than impressive in thirty.

The record we hold

The domain is premproxy.com. They are filed here as a free proxy list.

PremProxy is not in our priced record, so nothing about their rate appears below. That gap is stated rather than filled, which is the only honest option available.

Look for the tier you would actually land in, not the one at the bottom of the table, and find the expiry and failed-request clauses before the rate impresses you.

How PremProxy presents itself

As of 9 September 2026 the tab reads "premproxy.com - Premium Domain for Sale".

What else that page states, without interpretation:

We found no separate pricing page linked from the homepage, which usually means the price arrives by quotation.

Treat all of it as advertising, because it is. Its value is that it is dated and quotable, which is more than most comparison pages offer.

Longevity, on the public record

The domain was registered on 19 April 2017, through Regional Network Information Center, JSC dba RU-CENTER, which makes it about 9 years old. That record was read from the registry on 23 April 2026. The registry shows it renewed to 19 April 2027.

Age is not quality. A long registration does not make a network good, and a new one does not make it bad. What it does rule out is the shortest-lived pattern in this market, which is a site that appears, sells, and is gone inside a year.

Ownership of the list

We checked this one by hand on 6 September 2026. It is a list, and we record the operator as independent.

No proxy seller behind it that we could find. Independent lists tend to live on ad revenue, so expect the page to be busier than the data warrants.

The Internet Archive has it from 15 May 2017 to 23 January 2026, about 10 years of coverage. The domain was registered 19 April 2017 through Regional Network Information Center, JSC dba RU-CENTER.

What none of that tells you is how many of the addresses answer today. We publish our own measurement of that on the free side: of 589918 addresses discovered, 4023 were alive at the last check, with a median lifespan of 145 hours. Any list without a check date is describing a past that has already gone.

What the advertised numbers cannot tell you

What passes through, and what is kept

Free and cheap services are paid for somehow. Read the privacy policy for what is retained, for how long, and whether traffic is inspected or altered. This matters more than speed for anything involving an account.

A country count is not coverage

Ask for the pool size in your country rather than in total, and expect the answer to be vague. Where it is not published, the ten minute test at the end of this page settles it for a few dollars.

What happens when it breaks at two in the morning

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.

What separates them, in a table

The rows that matter, with our own answers stated plainly:

We would rather show an incomplete table than a confident wrong one. Anything we could not source is left for you to read at the source, with the date you read it.

A test worth more than this comparison

Do this once and you will never need a comparison page for this decision again.

  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. Count how many requests returned what you wanted, and how much bandwidth each side spent doing it.
  4. Spot-check the exits. Confirm they are in the country you paid for and the connection type you were sold.
  5. Take the winner and set a reminder to run this again, since a result has a shelf life of about a quarter.

Others in this market

Nearest alternatives by product shape rather than by who pays us, since nobody does:

Our side of it

HProxy is pay as you go from $0.44 per GB on residential, with ISP, mobile and datacenter under one balance and no commitment attached to any of them. Run the test. If we lose on your target, we lose, and you have your answer.

Frequently asked questions

Why look for a PremProxy alternative at all?
The usual reasons any buyer compares two providers: the pricing model stopped fitting the usage pattern, a target started blocking, a specific country underperformed, a balance expired, or support went quiet. None of those is visible from a marketing page, which is why a small paid test on your own target settles it faster than any review.
What does PremProxy advertise?
We do not hold a current, sourced price for PremProxy, so this page does not print one. Read their own pricing page for the rate, the minimum and the commitment, and note the date you read it, because all three move.
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.
Is a cheaper provider usually worse?
Not reliably. Price in this market reflects the supply model and the sales overhead as much as the network. What price does not tell you is the success rate on your target, and that is the figure that decides whether the cheaper option was cheap or expensive. Measure before assuming either way.
Why do free proxy lists stop working so quickly?
Because the addresses on them are mostly misconfigured devices that get fixed, or short-lived hosts that get shut down. We measure this on our own free network: of 589918 addresses discovered, 4023 were answering at the last check. A list without a check date is telling you nothing about today.

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.
