Frequently asked.
Q.01
Is the bandwidth metered or unlimited?
Metered, to the byte. You see live usage in your portal and pay only for what you use. No minimum commit, no monthly resets, no hidden overage fees.
Q.02
What's the minimum top-up?
$3. We accept Stripe (card), PayPal, and crypto (BTC, ETH, USDT, plus more via Mercurial gateway). Bonus credit applies automatically from $15 and up.
Q.03
Do you offer SOCKS5?
Yes. The gateway listens on port 1080 for SOCKS5 (RFC 1928) alongside HTTP/HTTPS on 3128. Same auth, same tiers, same country-pin syntax. Use username=<api_key> and password=<tier> in the SOCKS5 subnegotiation (RFC 1929) — exactly mirroring the HTTP path. Works with Firefox, Chrome (system proxy), torrent clients, mitmproxy, and every standards-compliant SOCKS5 client.
Q.04
How do I pin a country or city?
Append _country-XX to your password (e.g. standard_country-US), or send an X-Proxy-Country: US header. City and ASN precision is on the Geo-Targeted tier — see the portal docs for the exact syntax.
Q.05
What's the refund policy?
Full refund inside 24h if you've used under 100MB. No lock-in, no contracts. Unused balance never expires — top up once, use whenever.
Q.06
What use cases are prohibited?
No spam, fraud, CSAM, or attacks on critical infrastructure. We log abuse and respond fast — keeping the IP pool clean is what lets us undercut the enterprise crowd. Bonus credit is one-per-customer and non-withdrawable.
Q.07
Can I switch tiers mid-balance?
Yes. One balance covers all five tiers. The password you send on each request determines which tier you're billed at. Mix and match freely — use Standard for bulk, jump to CleanProxy™ when a target needs it.
$1 credit. Test before you spend.
