Oxylabs
IPProxy vs Oxylabs
Oxylabs sells a single subscription that unlocks proxies together with search, scrape, Web Unblocker, and Agent Browser products. Plan minimums start at $15/month (Starter), with a free Welcome-credits column that is not a $15 plan. IPProxy is a self-serve wallet for three proxy types only, with no monthly platform fee and no scraping API in the public catalog.
When IPProxy may fit
- You only need residential, ISP, or datacenter proxies and want to pay a wallet checkout without a platform subscription.
- You want to buy a small prepaid residential pack or a single static IP, including 7- or 360-day terms.
- You do not need Search/Scrape APIs, Web Unblocker, Agent Browser, or mobile proxies.
When Oxylabs may fit
- You want one subscription that also covers scraping APIs, Web Unblocker, or Agent Browser.
- You are comfortable with a monthly minimum (Starter $15, Basic $100, Flexible $500, or Enterprise from $2,500) and with VAT possibly applying.
- You need mobile proxies, which Oxylabs lists on the same pricing table.

Prices that can be compared
Prices below are public list or checkout figures, not a promise that one provider is cheaper in every configuration. Compare the same product type, period, and quantity. Marketing “from” prices are often volume or starting-from rates. Each site’s checkout is authoritative. Pool size, success rate, and uptime figures are official marketing claims and have not been independently audited here.

Coverage, protocols, and sessions
Official marketing claims below have not been independently audited.
- HTTP or SOCKS details were not copied from the Oxylabs product pages for this write-up; see the official product URLs in the source list rather than an invented protocol list.
- IPProxy documents HTTP(S) CONNECT and SOCKS5. Oxylabs also sells non-proxy products (Search, Scrape, Unblocker, Browser) that IPProxy does not.
Oxylabs positions the platform around scraping, search, and automation as well as proxy access. IPProxy’s public use-case pages stay on proxy-led scraping, SEO, ads, social, pricing, and research.
