What happened to 360Proxy, and what to use instead

Looking for 360Proxy? It no longer answers. Here is the dated evidence, stated only as far as it goes, and the honest replacement.

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.

Somebody searching for 360Proxy today is usually one of two people: a customer who cannot log in, or a buyer who found an old review. This page is for both, and it starts with the dates.

What the site does today

Every request we made on 9 September 2026 failed, the last with ENOTFOUND. Nothing responds on that name over either protocol.

The last working page the archive caught was in August 2024, out of 41 good snapshots. Coverage is not continuous, so read it as roughly when.

The site, in its own words

The final good capture, August 2024, carried the title "Best Residential Proxy IP-Global Residential Proxy Service Provider-360proxy". The heading on the page was "The world's most pure residential IP". For search engines it described itself as: "360proxy has high-quality global residential proxy IP resources, which are more concealed, safer, and faster."

A third party kept that, which is why it is quotable. It records what was being claimed, and says nothing about whether the claims held up.

The site, while it lasted

The archive first captured a working page in July 2011.

So the business existed and had a product. Whether it was any good is not something the record can settle.

The registration record

Registration goes back to 1 September 2013, with NameCheap, Inc. as registrar. So the domain has existed for some 13 years. Registration runs to 1 September 2026. Somebody is still paying for a name that serves nothing. Those dates come from a registry lookup on 23 April 2026.

Search demand has not caught up with the shutdown. About 10 searches a month still carry the name, read 9 September 2026.

What this page cannot tell you is the reason. Companies close for ordinary reasons far more often than dramatic ones, and the public record does not distinguish between them. Everything above is a date or a capture; none of it is a motive.

The rest of the graveyard

The same treatment, applied to others that stopped answering:

Picking a replacement

Practical first step for a former customer: stop any recurring payment at your bank rather than on their site, since their site is not there to stop it on. Then check your dispute window.

For the replacement itself, the useful rule is to keep your prepaid exposure small until a provider has earned more. HProxy is pay as you go from $0.44 per GB with nothing expiring, which is why we can say that without it costing us anything. Run a small paid test on your own target before you commit either way.

Frequently asked questions

Is 360Proxy really gone?
We re-checked the domain on 9 September 2026 over https, www and plain http. Nothing answered on any of them. That is evidence of a shutdown rather than proof of one, and it is the strongest evidence the public web offers.
What happened to 360Proxy?
We do not know, and we will not guess in public. The record shows when the site stopped being captured and that it no longer answers. It says nothing about the reason, and every confident explanation of a small provider's shutdown that we have read traces back to a forum rumour.
Can I get my money back?
If the payment is recent enough to fall inside your card scheme's dispute window, a chargeback is usually the only realistic route once a provider stops answering. Cancel any recurring authority at your bank rather than on their site, and keep receipts and support threads as evidence.
What should I use instead of 360Proxy?
Weight the terms as heavily as the price, because an expiring balance and a large minimum top-up are what turn a shutdown into a real loss. Whatever you shortlist, run a small paid test on your own target before moving volume, and keep prepaid exposure small until a provider has earned more.
