## Why do buyers look for a datacenter proxy alternative?

There are four common reasons to compare providers: payment, order size, identity checks and price at your volume.

- **Payment.** Some providers list cards only. On 19 October 2026, Webshare's dedicated proxy page listed Visa, Mastercard, Amex and Discover. RackProxies is the reverse: crypto only, in BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC.
- **Order size.** Webshare's smallest dedicated tier is 20 proxies, and Rayobyte's minimum is 5 IPs. RackProxies sells 1 IP for $1.29.
- **Identity checks.** No KYC: no ID, no selfie, no documents to sign up, top up or buy. The other pages we read did not state their KYC rule.
- **Price at your volume.** Prices per IP differ a lot between 10 and 100 IPs. Check each page at your own quantity.

We do not claim to be the cheapest at any volume.

## When should you stay with your current provider?

Switching is not always the right move. Stay where you are if you need:

- **IPv6.** IPv4 only. IPv6 proxies are not sold yet. Rayobyte listed US IPv6 at $0.20 per IP.
- **Very large lists.** Webshare lists tiers up to 10,000 proxies, and Oxylabs charges $1.20 per IP from 2,080 IPs. Our largest plan is 100 IPs.
- **More countries.** Webshare states 50+ countries and Rayobyte 29; RackProxies has pages for 22.
- **Card payment.** We accept crypto only.

Each comparison page has a section on what the other provider does well.

## How do I test RackProxies before I switch?

Buy one IP in the country you use most, test it on your real targets, then move the rest of your list.

1. Buy 1 IP for $1.29 (minimum top-up $25; the rest stays on your balance).
2. Check the IP's location and network type with the [datacenter IP check](https://rackproxies.com/guides/check-a-datacenter-ip/). Datacenter IPs are registered to hosting networks, not to home internet providers. IP geolocation databases can place the same IP in a different city, or even a different country, from the datacenter that announces it.
3. Load it into your tool. Each IP is delivered as a line `IP:PORT:USERNAME:PASSWORD` in your account, exportable as TXT or CSV.
4. Update any allowlists on your side with the new addresses.

No free trial: test with the 1-IP plan; when it costs less than the minimum top-up, the part added only to reach the minimum is refundable on request within 30 days, in USDT or USDC, if unspent.

### RackProxies plans

| Plan | Quantity | Price | Price per unit |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| 1 datacenter IP | 1 IP | $1.29 | $1.29/IP · 30 days |
| 10 datacenter IPs | 10 IPs | $12.69 | $1.27/IP · 30 days |
| 50 datacenter IPs | 50 IPs | $33.75 | $0.68/IP · 30 days |
| 100 datacenter IPs | 100 IPs | $59.25 | $0.59/IP · 30 days |

In every plan: Dedicated IPv4: one customer per IP · 30-day rental, renewable · HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 · Username/password or IP allowlist · Billed per IP, not per GB

**Before you pay**

- You top up the price of your plan. The checkout asks for the plan price (less your balance), at least $25; anything left stays on your balance.
- Unused balance stays on your account and never expires. When a purchase costs less than the minimum top-up, the part added only to reach the minimum is refundable on request to support within 30 days of the payment, in USDT or USDC, as long as it has not been spent. The rest of the balance is not paid back, except where the law requires it.
- Credited once your payment is checked on the blockchain. Typical network confirmation time: BTC ≈ 20 min · USDT TRC-20 ≈ 1 min · USDT ERC-20 ≈ 5 min · USDC ERC-20 ≈ 5 min · ETH ≈ 5 min · SOL ≈ 1 min · LTC ≈ 15 min

## What do people ask about switching datacenter proxy providers?

### Can I keep my old IP addresses when I switch?

No. IP addresses belong to the provider's upstream networks, so a new provider gives you new IPs. Plan to update allowlists, firewall rules and configs. At RackProxies: Each rental lasts 30 days from delivery. Renew from your account before the end date; keeping the same IPs after a rental ends is not guaranteed.

### Are these comparisons neutral?

No. RackProxies wrote them, and we sell the alternative. To keep them useful, every competitor price is copied from the provider's own page on 19 October 2026 and linked, and each page lists what the other provider does better. Check the source links before you decide.

### Which alternative accepts crypto?

RackProxies accepts BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC. Among other datacenter providers we checked, GhostConnect, FloppyData, MarsProxies, Decodo and IPRoyal showed crypto on their pages. On 19 October 2026, Webshare listed cards only. See the [no-KYC ranking](https://rackproxies.com/best/no-kyc-datacenter-proxies/) for coins, KYC wording and dates.

### Do you offer a trial for switchers?

No free trial: test with the 1-IP plan; when it costs less than the minimum top-up, the part added only to reach the minimum is refundable on request within 30 days, in USDT or USDC, if unspent. A simple test: one IP in the country you use most, then a larger plan once it works on your targets.

### Is there a comparison for other providers?

Yes. The [best datacenter proxies 2026](https://rackproxies.com/best/datacenter-proxies-2026/) page compares 10 providers, including FloppyData, GhostConnect, MarsProxies, IPRoyal, Decodo and Bright Data, on price per IP, crypto and KYC wording.
