How much does Oxylabs cost?

On November 6, 2026, Oxylabs' residential pricing page listed four plans: Starter at $15 a month, Basic at $100, Flexible at $500, and Enterprise from $2,500 a month. Residential traffic is billed per GB in volume bands: $6/GB at the smallest volumes, $5/GB up to 20 GB, $4/GB up to 125 GB and $2.50/GB from 1,000 GB. Charges cover request and response traffic whatever status code the site returns.

New accounts get a one-time $5 welcome credit. Unused credits expire at the end of the billing cycle unless they carry over as part of an upgrade, and self-service purchases are non-refundable.

The product page's FAQ still says residential proxies start at $30 a month, which disagrees with the $15 Starter plan on the pricing page. Budget from the pricing page.

When Oxylabs is the better choice

  • You need the scale. Oxylabs advertises 175M+ residential IPs in 195 countries. Residential IPv4 Standard has 50M+ residential IPs in 150+ countries.
  • You target finely. Oxylabs offers continent, country, state, city, ZIP, coordinate and ASN targeting. TrueProxies has no ZIP or coordinate targeting.
  • You want an enterprise relationship. Oxylabs sells Enterprise plans with tailored terms and support, from $2,500 a month.

When TrueProxies fits

  • Your volume is small or uneven. Traffic never expires, so a 50 GB pack bought today still works next quarter. Oxylabs credits lapse at the end of each billing cycle.
  • Price per GB matters more than pool size. Lite costs $0.50 down to $0.45/GB with country targeting; Standard costs $1.10 down to $0.60/GB with country, region, city and ASN targeting. Oxylabs' lowest published rate is $2.50/GB, from 1,000 GB.
  • Your traffic is heavy or hard to predict. Unlimited Bandwidth and Unlimited Pro charge by speed and term, from $4.08/hour at 10 Mbps, so the bill does not grow with the bytes you move.
  • You want to test before paying. The free trial is 1 hour of Unlimited Pro at 10 Mbps with no traffic cap; Oxylabs gives a $5 credit.

How we compared

  • Competitor figures were read from the vendor's own public pages on November 6, 2026, as displayed, and each source is linked below the table. Where a page does not state something, the table says so.
  • List prices and promotions are shown separately. A coupon that lasts 3 months is not a rate to budget against.
  • Pool sizes and country counts are what each provider advertises. None is independently audited, and we did not test either network for this page.
  • Before moving traffic, send the same targets, countries, concurrency and retry rules through both providers, and compare successful responses and billed traffic. The proxy checker runs a first connectivity check on any proxy.
