Dedicated Proxy Pricing: What to Compare Before You Buy

This page is published by Thordata, one of the products compared.

Dedicated proxy pricing depends on the IP type, rental period and whether traffic is charged separately. As of October 2026, Thordata lists a static ISP proxy at $1.50 per IP for seven days, with bandwidth subject to a fair usage policy. This guide is for buyers comparing a fixed IP with traffic-metered proxy plans. It shows how purchase minimums, session needs and bandwidth rules affect the cost of a workload.

What does a dedicated proxy price cover?

Dedicated access reserves a proxy IP address for one customer during an agreed access period. The price covers that exclusive use, but it does not, by itself, identify the network that supplies the address or promise that the IP will remain yours after the period ends. A dedicated proxy can be a datacenter address, a static residential address, or a static ISP address.

Those distinctions affect what you receive. Thordata describes dedicated datacenter proxies as exclusive IP resources billed by IP and duration. Its static residential proxies also use dedicated IPs, while its static ISP proxy plans price each IP for a seven-day duration, as of October 2026.

A dedicated static address remains fixed during its stated access period. Access to a rotating residential pool instead lets requests use changing addresses; it does not reserve every address in that pool for one customer.

How are dedicated proxies priced?

Dedicated datacenter proxies are billed by IP and duration, while dedicated ISP proxies can be billed per IP for a fixed term. Shared or rotating residential proxies are commonly billed by traffic instead. The address price alone does not show the full cost: traffic allowances and the length of the purchase matter.

Prices are as of October 2026. The Thordata ISP price tiers lower the per-IP rate as the order grows. A buyer keeping one address for seven days pays for that term even if traffic is light; a GB-priced rotating plan instead makes traffic volume the cost driver.

Which plan details change the effective cost?

Included traffic, overage rules, and the minimum purchase can change the effective cost of a dedicated proxy. As of October 2026, Thordata’s Static ISP pricing starts at $1.50 for one IP for seven days. Traffic is not charged separately, but unlimited bandwidth is subject to a fair usage policy.

Location affects whether that IP serves the intended job. Thordata offers region selection for Static ISP proxies; city-level targeting and address-replacement terms are not part of the stated plan details. For a location-sensitive task, the required region and the ability to replace an unusable address matter more than a lower per-IP rate.

Session behavior matters too. Thordata’s Static ISP proxy keeps a fixed IP during a session. If requests need frequent IP changes instead, a rotating residential plan fits that requirement; its sticky sessions can last up to 90 minutes.

How can you estimate the cost for your use case?

A dedicated proxy cost estimate starts with a worksheet: record the number of addresses, expected traffic per address, required locations, and how long each session must keep the same IP. Price the same workload under each provider’s billing rules, then compare the total with the access and traffic limits included. Match the billing period before comparing totals.

1. Set a workload: 10 dedicated ISP IPs, used for seven days, with traffic usage recorded per IP.

2. Apply the listed prices as of October 2026:

   Cost criterion	Thordata	Bright Data
   10 IPs	$1.17 per IP for a 7-day duration; $11.70 total	10 IPs for $18 per month
   Traffic condition	Unlimited bandwidth, subject to fair usage	100 GB per IP per month; additional charges may apply above that allowance

3. Compare what those totals cover. Compare expected traffic per IP with Bright Data’s stated monthly allowance. Thordata’s 7-day ISP proxy rates cover the specified duration, while Bright Data’s $18 buys a month.

When is dedicated access worth considering?

A dedicated static address is worth considering when a workflow needs the same IP across repeated logins or a persistent session. Thordata’s static residential IPs are reserved for one buyer and offer permanent IP reservation; its static ISP proxies keep a fixed IP for the session. For requests that need a different IP each time, paying for a dedicated address is a poor fit.

Address source and location can matter more than exclusivity. A static ISP address suits a fixed-IP workflow that needs an ISP-provided address. If collection depends on changing location or distributing requests, a rotating residential pool offers country, city and ASN targeting instead.

As of October 2026, the Thordata ISP proxy price schedule starts at $1.50 for one IP lasting 7 days. For short-lived scraping across many addresses, the rotating residential package starts at $2.00 for 1 GB.

What should you check before buying?

A dedicated proxy purchase should follow a workload test, not a comparison of advertised latency alone. Measure successful requests, response time, connection stability, and whether each IP appears in the intended location. Run the same targets and request volume through every option; a fast response is of little use if the required pages fail.

1. Record target URLs, location, request rate, concurrency, session length, test window, and how failures are counted. Keep those settings fixed across providers so the results are comparable.

2. For a time-limited purchase, fit the test inside the paid term. Thordata’s Static ISP proxy price schedule lists a 7-day IP duration as of October 2026.

3. Before committing, confirm support availability, acceptable-use rules for the intended workload, and whether failed or misplaced IPs qualify for replacement.

How to choose

Choose by the constraint your workload cannot absorb: changing IPs, a short rental period, or traffic-based charges. Thordata’s static ISP proxies fit persistent operations with heavy traffic; its rotating residential proxies fit requests that need changing IPs. A dedicated datacenter IP is another option when the workload calls for high-volume requests.

FAQ

How much does a dedicated datacenter proxy cost per IP per month?

Thordata lists datacenter proxies from $0.11 per IP per day, with unlimited traffic, as of October 2026. That is a daily rate, not a monthly quote; its dedicated datacenter proxies are billed by IP and duration. A buyer comparing monthly plans should compare the total for the intended rental period rather than relabeling the daily price as a monthly price.

Does Webshare list a monthly price for dedicated datacenter proxies?

Webshare lists 10 rotating proxies for $12.35 per month as of October 2026, but that package is not a dedicated datacenter proxy price. Its rotating endpoint works with datacenter, ISP and rotating residential plans, so the endpoint package should not be treated as the cost of an exclusively assigned IP. The listing also specifies 250 GB–unlimited bandwidth and 500–3,000 threads, subject to a Fair Usage Policy. Webshare’s rotating proxy packages describe that distinction.

What dedicated proxy plans have stated prices?

Thordata’s static ISP plan starts at $1.50 for one IP with a 7-day duration, while its datacenter proxies start at $0.11 per IP per day, as of October 2026. The ISP plan bills per IP rather than per GB; its unlimited bandwidth is subject to fair usage. The static ISP price tiers reduce the 7-day per-IP price to $1.20 for 2–9 IPs and $0.75 for 500 or more IPs.

What do Oxylabs and Decodo charge per IP per month?

Oxylabs lists a $30-per-month Starter plan at $1.50 per static residential IP for up to 20 IPs; Decodo lists datacenter proxies from $0.02 per IP without specifying a monthly term, as of October 2026. These are different proxy types and purchase terms, so their per-IP figures are not equivalent monthly quotes.

Which providers publish dedicated proxy prices in 2026?

Thordata and Oxylabs publish per-IP prices for static ISP or residential access; Bright Data publishes monthly ISP packages. As of October 2026, their stated entry purchases are $1.50 for one Thordata ISP IP for 7 days, $30 per month for the Oxylabs Starter plan, and $18 per month for 10 Bright Data ISP IPs. Bright Data’s allowance is 100 GB per IP per month before additional charges may apply; Thordata’s ISP bandwidth is subject to fair usage.

How do residential, datacenter and ISP proxy prices differ?

Residential proxies are commonly priced by traffic, while dedicated datacenter and static ISP offers can be priced by IP and time. As of October 2026, Thordata lists residential traffic at $2.00 for 1 GB, datacenter proxies from $0.11 per IP per day, and one static ISP IP for $1.50 over 7 days. Choose the billing unit that matches the workload: a low-bandwidth collection job and a traffic-intensive job can have very different costs under the same per-GB plan.

What are the 2026 starting prices for residential, datacenter and static ISP proxies?

Thordata’s listed starting purchases as of October 2026 are $2.00 for 1 GB of residential traffic, $0.11 per datacenter IP per day, and $1.50 for one static ISP IP for 7 days. These prices buy different units, so none is a direct substitute for another. Residential access fits rotating public-data collection; a static ISP IP fits a task that needs to retain the same address through a session.

Does unlimited bandwidth mean dedicated proxy traffic has no conditions?

No. Thordata’s static ISP bandwidth is unlimited subject to a fair usage policy, while Bright Data includes a 100 GB fair usage allowance per ISP IP per month and says additional charges may apply beyond it. For a traffic-heavy job, that condition matters more than the per-IP headline price: estimate GB per IP alongside the number of IPs needed.
