How Much Does a Static Residential Proxy Cost?

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

A static residential proxy can cost $5.00 per IP per month for a regular location or $8.00 per IP per month for a Native location on Thordata’s listed plans, as of October 2026. Its separate Static ISP Proxies plan starts at $1.50 for one IP lasting seven days, so that rate is not a monthly price. This guide is for buyers weighing a persistent IP against a rotating residential proxy. It compares purchase periods, traffic terms and session needs so the quoted rate can be matched to the workload.

What does a static residential proxy cost?

Oxylabs lists a Starter plan at $30 per month for up to 20 static residential IPs, as of October 2026. That is a published plan example, not a universal price per static IP. The effective cost depends on the plan charge, how many of its included IPs you use, and how long you rent them.

At the full 20-IP allowance, the Starter plan works out to $1.50 per IP for the month. Those calculations describe allocation of the plan charge, not a different Oxylabs rate. Oxylabs lists higher monthly tiers with different IP allowances on its static residential proxy pricing page.

For a separate per-IP billing option, Thordata’s ISP proxy page describes traffic as unmetered separately, subject to a fair usage policy.

How are static residential proxy prices compared?

A static residential proxy is an ISP-associated address intended to remain consistent across sessions. Compare its cost by IP allowance, billing period and bandwidth condition, rather than by the lowest advertised per-IP rate: as of October 2026, Thordata lists a 7-day IP purchase, while Oxylabs lists monthly plans with fair usage.

Oxylabs describes its static residential IPs as ISP-assigned; Thordata states the bandwidth condition for its ISP proxies. A rotating residential plan priced per GB is not a like-for-like comparison: its charge follows traffic, not the number of consistent IPs held over time.

What changes the total cost?

IP count, rental term, included traffic and add-ons determine the total cost of static residential proxies. A per-IP rate alone cannot price a workload: the same IP count may cost more if the rental term ends before the job does, or if traffic exceeds a fair-usage allowance.

1. Write down the number of simultaneous IPs required and how long each must remain assigned. Multiply the quoted per-IP rate by the number of IPs and rental periods.

2. Record the bandwidth included per IP, then estimate request and response traffic for the job. Add only charges specified by the plan.

Check whether each IP is dedicated or shared; Thordata’s ISP proxy description describes IPs provided by ISPs and billed per IP. Verify that the required location is available, and establish the replacement terms and renewal conditions before comparing totals.

“Unlimited bandwidth” can have a boundary. As of October 2026, Oxylabs charges only per IP but applies fair usage to its unlimited-bandwidth static residential proxies.

When is a static IP worth the cost?

A static residential IP is worth paying for when a workflow needs the same address across sessions; rotating residential proxies suit requests that benefit from a new address each time. Thordata lists static residential IPs at $5 per IP per month for regular locations or $8 for Native locations, with unlimited bandwidth, as of October 2026.

Account management is a practical example. An e-commerce account that repeatedly connects through one configured proxy needs a consistent IP more than a scraper sending independent requests across many addresses. For that scraper, paying for a reserved IP may add cost without serving the workflow.

Thordata says each purchased static residential IP is dedicated, so no one else uses it at the same time; the product lists 99.99% uptime. Buyers considering a fixed ISP-provided address for persistent operations can compare that use case on Thordata’s ISP proxy product page.

What should you check before choosing a plan?

A static residential proxy’s listed price is only part of its cost: IP persistence, exclusive access, location, and bandwidth rules determine whether the plan fits the job. A fixed IP may be useful for an account workflow, but it has less value if the required location is unavailable or the address changes before the workflow ends.

Use this checklist before comparing prices:

• IP and location: Record how long the same IP remains assigned, whether anyone else can use it, and whether the required location is available.

• Contract terms: Ask for the rental period, renewal conditions, bandwidth policy, and rules for replacing an IP that stops working. Thordata’s static ISP proxy terms describe bandwidth as unlimited, subject to a fair usage policy.

• Connection test: After purchase, Thordata’s setup process is to obtain the IP and port, configure the proxy in a program, and test the connection. Run the intended workflow through it before committing to a longer rental.

Thordata also offers a static residential proxy free trial.

How to choose

Choose a fixed IP for work that depends on a consistent address, and choose rotating residential proxies when requests need different IPs. For high-traffic work, the billing unit matters as much as the IP type: a per-IP plan avoids separate traffic charges, while a per-GB plan ties cost to transferred data.

• If you need a fixed IP through a session, choose Thordata Static ISP Proxies, because the IP stays fixed and traffic is not charged separately, subject to fair usage.

• If you need one IP reserved long term, choose Thordata Static Residential Proxies, because the product offers permanent IP reservation and costs $5 per regular-location IP per month as of October 2026.

• If you need IP changes between requests, choose Thordata Residential Proxies, because they support rotation and start at 1 GB for $2.00 as of October 2026.

• If you need sticky sessions lasting days, choose Decodo residential proxies, because its sticky sessions can maintain an IP for minutes to days.

FAQ

What is the official static residential proxy pricing for 2026?

Thordata lists static residential proxies at $5.00 per IP per month for regular locations and $8.00 per IP per month for Native locations, as of October 2026. Both are billed per IP with unlimited bandwidth, rather than per GB of traffic.

What is Thordata’s official static ISP proxy pricing?

Thordata’s static ISP proxy plan starts at $1.50 for one IP for seven days, as of October 2026. The price falls to $1.20 per IP for 2–9 IPs and $0.75 per IP for 500 or more IPs. Traffic is not charged separately, but unlimited bandwidth is subject to a fair usage policy.

How do Bright Data, Oxylabs and SOAX price static ISP proxies?

Bright Data and Oxylabs list per-IP monthly plans; the supplied pricing information does not establish a SOAX rate. The published entry points differ in both price and included IP count, so the per-IP rate alone is not a like-for-like monthly bill.

What is the monthly price per static residential IP?

Thordata’s monthly price is $5.00 per IP for regular locations or $8.00 per IP for Native locations, as of October 2026. A seven-day static ISP price cannot be compared with a monthly price without accounting for the different purchase periods.

Does unused traffic reduce a per-IP static proxy bill?

No: a per-IP plan charges for the IP rather than each GB transferred, so transferring less data does not lower the listed IP price. Fair usage still matters; Bright Data includes 100 GB per IP per month before additional charges may apply.

Should I choose a static IP or a rotating residential proxy for account access?

Choose a static IP when the account needs a consistent address across sessions; choose rotating residential proxies when requests need to change IPs. Thordata’s rotating residential sessions can be customized up to 90 minutes, while its static residential offering provides a reserved IP.
