ProxyPricing.io is not a generic affiliate roundup. It is a pricing intelligence layer built to answer practical buyer questions: how much each provider really costs, when a plan becomes rational, and where marketing language diverges from the commercial structure a buyer actually faces.
We track public residential proxy pricing across Smartproxy, Oxylabs, Bright Data, SOAX and IPRoyal, focusing on plan name, monthly spend, effective $/GB, pay-as-you-go availability and commitment structure.
All prices are normalized in USD, limited to residential products, and interpreted with commitment logic separated from pure $/GB so buyers can compare on realistic commercial terms.
We do not rank providers only by the lowest visible $/GB. Pages interpret pricing through four lenses: entry cost, marginal cost, operational fit, and commercial friction.
We do not claim to represent negotiated enterprise deals, private discounts, or that one universal “best provider” exists independently of buyer profile and usage pattern.
Some links are affiliate links, but verdicts should remain explainable from public pricing, plan structure, and buyer-fit logic. If a conclusion cannot be defended mechanistically, it should not be on the page.
