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.

Mayproxy is gone. This page sets out what the public record actually shows about when and how, what the site looked like while it traded, and what a customer left holding an account should do now.

The date it stopped

Nothing answered on 9 September 2026, the error being ENOTFOUND. Not a redirect, not a holding page. Silence.

The archive stops returning a real page after November 2018, having kept 5 of them. Crawls continued; the site did not.

What it said about itself at the end

The last working capture is from November 2018. Its title read "Web Proxy Server Free Fresh Proxy Server Unblock Proxy Server Access Banned Websites". The banner line read "mayproxy.ml Glype® proxy". The description it gave search engines said: "Web Proxy and Web proxy server are two terms used by midway net users. A proxy refers to a site, which can be use to blocked information. In extra words, without any restrictions, you can acquire access to any information over the internet with the use of proxy server websites."

Archived marketing is still marketing. What makes it worth quoting is that it cannot be edited after the fact, so it is a fixed record of the promise being made at the time.

What it looked like while it traded

The archive first captured a working page in July 2018.

None of it is a verdict on quality. It is the shape of a business that existed, which is worth establishing before anything else, because this market also contains names that never traded at all.

The honest limit here: we can show you the ending and not the reason for it. Anyone publishing a confident explanation of a small provider's shutdown is usually repeating a forum rumour, and we would rather leave the gap visible.

Others that stopped

Others in this market that ended, checked the same way:

Picking a replacement

For anyone with an unused balance: check whether your payment still falls inside your card scheme's dispute window. Keep the receipts and any support thread. Once a provider stops answering, that is usually the only route left.

On picking the next one: the lesson of a page like this is not "choose a big provider", it is "do not prepay more than you would mind losing, and do not accept a balance that expires". We sell residential from $0.44 per GB with a balance that does not expire and no subscription, which is the shape that fails least badly when a provider does. Test it and anything else you shortlist on your own target before you move volume.

Frequently asked questions

Is Mayproxy 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 Mayproxy?
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.
What should I use instead of Mayproxy?
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.
Why does Mayproxy still show up in reviews?
Because affiliate reviews are rarely revisited once they rank. Search demand for a dead provider outlives the company by years, and the pages recommending it keep earning, which is why a dated check like this one is worth more than a five-star roundup.
