How do monthly subscriptions work?

A monthly subscription gives you set traffic each month, and unused traffic carries over when you renew.

Written by Cornel

A monthly subscription gives you a set amount of traffic each month, billed on the same date every cycle.

Every plan includes both Residential and Mobile proxies. One traffic balance, spendable on either, in any proportion. There is no separate Mobile plan and no separate Mobile balance.

You also get access to our entire IP pool - plans differ by traffic, not by how many IPs you can reach.

Buying a subscription

  1. Click Pricing in the left navigation.

  2. Choose a plan.

  3. Select a payment method and continue.

  4. Complete the payment.

Traffic is added as soon as the payment is confirmed.

Only card subscriptions renew automatically

Paid by card: your subscription renews on its own. On your renewal date we charge the card on file and add that month's traffic. You do not need to do anything.

Paid any other way - cryptocurrency, YooMoney or MIR - your subscription is a one-off. It ends when the cycle ends, and you buy the next one whenever you are ready. Nothing is charged again without you doing it.

If you did not pay by card and want to keep running without a gap, buy your next plan before the current cycle ends. Your remaining traffic carries over.

To stop an automatic card charge, cancel before your renewal date. See How to cancel your subscription.

Unused traffic at the end of the month

Unused traffic carries over when your subscription renews. If your plan is 20 GB and you finish the month with 6 GB left, your next cycle starts with 26 GB.

What happens depends on what you do next:

Forfeited. Subscription traffic does not move to Pay-as-you-go

Frozen is not lost. See How to unfreeze your traffic.

Running out mid-month

If you are topping up most months, upgrading is usually cheaper.
