$1.00 / GB Source · checked 2026-10-26 Published prepaid package rates; intermediate-volume estimate is an inference |

Traffic never expires; pay only for traffic used. Intro $5/5GB and Basic $50/50GB are prepaid entry balances, not required monthly plans. 1TB is calculated as 1,000GB; Custom+ starts at 5TB and has no published per-GB rule. Applying $0.80/GB to every quantity from 1,000GB to below 5,000GB is an inference from the published Advanced package and non-expiring PAYG traffic, not an explicitly published intermediate-volume billing rule. | View DataImpulse Pricing | Source checked 2026-10-26 Freshness status is calculated when JavaScript runs. |

$0.98–$3.50 / GB (volume- and term-dependent) Source · checked 2026-10-26 Published discounted rates; every plan is shown against a $7.00/GB list price |
Unavailable — rate depends on quantity and billing term | Rotating Residential advertised rates vary by quantity and by the Monthly or Yearly selector, from $0.98/GB (3,000GB yearly) to $3.50/GB (1GB monthly) after discount. Other listed tiers include 10GB monthly at $2.75/GB ($27.50), 25GB monthly at $2.60/GB, 100GB monthly at $2.25/GB, and 3,000GB monthly at $1.40/GB. Rates shown with the Yearly selector are $2.45/GB (1GB), $1.93/GB (10GB), $1.82/GB (25GB), and $1.58/GB (100GB). Each plan shows a $7.00/GB list price before discount. Webshare's official subscription help describes Yearly as an annual commitment billed every 360 days, while the Yearly-selected pricing cards still say billed monthly. These billing descriptions conflict. The exact checkout charge and tax treatment for the displayed cards are UNKNOWN; no annual payable total is inferred. No single estimate is shown because quantity and billing selection change the advertised rate. | View Webshare Pricing | Source checked 2026-10-26 Freshness status is calculated when JavaScript runs. |

Residential allocation: Starter $30/month at $6/GB (up to 5GB), Basic $100/month at $5/GB (up to 20GB), Flexible $500/month at $4/GB (up to 125GB). Enterprise starts at $2,500/month with a published $2.50/GB rate and 1K+ GB; tailored terms require an offer. VAT may apply. No single estimate is shown because plan minimums and allocation determine the payable amount. | View Oxylabs Pricing | Source checked 2026-10-26 Freshness status is calculated when JavaScript runs. |
Listing changes (checked 2026-09-06): NetNut is not listed because its official domain displayed a seizure notice instead of pricing. ZenRows is not listed because its current official pricing page did not expose the former paid-tier figures. This bandwidth table now covers residential products only; Webshare's former datacenter entry was removed because its published datacenter plans are priced per proxy, not per GB.

DataProxyBench is an independent, primary-source comparison directory. All pricing, tier minimums, and token rates are checked directly against published vendor documentation and rate cards. Promotional coupon codes, unmetered marketing claims, and unverified third-party discounts are excluded. Rates are re-verified periodically and updated when a published vendor revision is detected.
Proxy price-basis policy: where an official source explicitly labels a list price, the comparison shows that list price and places any current promotion in the terms column. Where the source does not label the basis, the row says so rather than inferring that the published rate is a list price. Volume and term discounts are not used as the main comparison rate unless their basis is explicitly shown.
Estimator policy: The calculator reports only published billing rules for the entered unit. Subscription APIs use an adequate published credit tier; pay-as-you-go providers use their published volume rate instead. For DataImpulse, applying the Advanced package rate to intermediate volumes is an inference, not a confirmed payable quote. The published 1TB threshold is calculated as 1,000 GB; 5TB and above is shown as unavailable because Custom+ pricing is not a published per-GB rule. No residential provider is estimated from a single "starting at" rate: Decodo, IPRoyal, Oxylabs, and Webshare publish rates that change with quantity, plan type, billing term, or plan minimum, so a positive quantity is shown as unavailable for them rather than priced at their lowest published rate. The calculator does not model vendor-specific request-to-credit multipliers, account discounts, taxes, geography, or unlisted enterprise terms. An unavailable estimate is not a zero-cost estimate; use the linked pricing page.
