Where do the residential IPs come from?

From our own pool of residential IPs: desktop and laptop devices on home internet connections whose owners opted in. We keep adding IPs and locations to it. No botnets, and sourcing follows GDPR and CCPA.

How long does a sticky session keep its IP?

There is no fixed limit: the session keeps its IP while the exit device stays online, and -time- ends it sooner if you want. Devices go offline when their owners disconnect, so build retries into multi-step jobs; add -const and the session fails with an error instead of moving to another IP.

Can I target an internet provider?

Yes. Add -asn- to the username to pick an ISP's network. ASN targeting replaces geo targeting: you cannot combine it with a country, city or ZIP.

What are residential IPs not for?

Tasks that need the lowest possible latency, and sending email: bulk or unsolicited email breaks our Acceptable Use Policy.

Residential or mobile?

Residential suits most sites and costs $3.99 per GB. Take mobile IPs, $4.99 per GB, for app-first platforms and carrier targeting.

How does billing work?

You top up from $10 by card or crypto and pay per GB. No commitment, and the balance never expires. Volume pricing starts from $0.70 per GB.

Residential IPs from real home networks

Your requests leave from desktop and laptop devices on home internet connections in 249 countries and territories. Target the city, ZIP code or ISP, and pay $3.99 per GB.

The network behind every request

We maintain our own pool of residential IPs and keep growing its coverage. Every request goes through one gateway, with the country, city or ASN set per request.

Residential and mobile IPs: 10M+
Countries and territories: 249
Success rate: about 99%
Gateway uptime, last 12 months: 99.98%

What residential IPs give you

Every setting is a username parameter or an API call, so your code decides per request.

See every targeting parameter

A visitor at home
Sites see a device on a home connection from an ISP they know, so they serve the page a local visitor gets.
Targeting down to the ZIP
Country, region, city or ZIP in 249 countries and territories, or an ISP by its ASN with -asn.
Rotation by default
Each request leaves from a fresh IP until you ask for a session.
Sessions that hold
-session-<id> keeps one IP while its device is online, -time-<minutes> ends it sooner, and -const fails the request instead of switching IPs.
One gateway, three protocols
HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5 all go through the same gateway address and credentials.

A clean network, end to end

Every request takes the same path. The gateway is our own code; the exit network is built on consent.

Your code
Any HTTP, HTTPS or SOCKS5 client: scripts, headless and anti-detect browsers.
2extract gateway
Our own code: routing, sessions and username parameters, in several regions to keep latency low.
Exit network
Our own residential IP pool, which we keep growing, and mobile IPs; every owner opted in with explicit, informed consent.
