Cheapest Proxies for Low-Volume:10–200 GB Compared
Proxy providers often promote the lowest per-GB rate available on their largest plans. A buyer needing 10 or 50 GB can pay several times that rate when the provider imposes a fixed monthly charge.
We compared the total cost of selected residential, mobile and datacenter proxy products at 10, 20, 50, 100 and 200 GB.
- For residential traffic: Decodo has the lowest total price at every tested volume from 10 to 200 GB.
- For datacenter traffic: Bright Data has the lowest total cost from 10 to 100 GB and ties with Oxylabs at 200 GB.
- For mobile traffic: DataImpulse has the lowest total cost at $2/GB, followed by Decodo.
Quick picks for low-volume proxy buyers
Cheap can refer to a low total payment, a low price per GB, or a low cost per successful request. These measures do not necessarily identify the same provider. Compare total payment and price per GB at defined monthly volumes:
If you need | Lowest-priced in our dataset | Total cost | Advantage |
|---|---|---|---|
10 GB datacenter | DataImpulse | $5 | $1 below Bright Data |
100 GB datacenter | Bright Data | $60 | $5 below Oxylabs |
200 GB datacenter | Bright Data Oxylabs | $120 | The two providers are tied |

What is the price premium for a 10 GB residential buyer?
Most residential providers charge a 10 GB buyer at least twice their lowest rate in the dataset.
DataImpulse combines the lowest 10 GB residential rate with a relatively small low-volume. By comparison, Decodo’s 10 GB buyer pays 2.5 times the rate available from 5,000 GB, while Oxylabs’ 10 GB rate is twice its lowest rate.
Cheapest residential proxy prices from 10 to 200 GB
DataImpulse is the lowest-priced residential provider at every tested volume from 10 to 200 GB. At $1 per GB, its total cost ranges from $10 for 10 GB to $200 for 200 GB.
Decodo is the next-lowest-priced provider across the tested range, with total costs ranging from $55 at 10 GB to $900 at 200 GB. Compared with Decodo, DataImpulse costs approximately 78–82% less at these low-volume points.
How monthly charges change datacenter pricing
DataImpulse has the lowest datacenter cost at every tested volume from 10 to 200 GB. Its $0.50/GB rate results in a total cost of $5 at 10 GB, $50 at 100 GB, and $100 at 200 GB.
Bright Data is the next-lowest option from 10 to 100 GB. At 200 GB, Bright Data and Oxylabs both cost $120, compared with $100 for DataImpulse.
Oxylabs and Decodo each maintain a $50 total charge across the 10, 20, and 50 GB comparison points. Their effective rates therefore decline as the customer uses more of the included capacity, even though the total payment does not change.
At 10 GB, both providers cost $5 per GB. At 50 GB, the same $50 payment produces a rate of $1 per GB.
Cheapest mobile proxy prices from 10 to 200 GB
DataImpulse is the lowest-priced mobile provider at every tested volume from 10 to 200 GB. At $2/GB, its total cost ranges from $20 at 10 GB to $400 at 200 GB.
Decodo is the next-lowest option. DataImpulse costs about 71% less at 10 GB ($20 versus $70) and about 64% less at 100 GB ($200 versus $550).
Add as preferred sourceCheap proxies methodology
For each usage tier, we compare all public pricing options from each provider and use the one with the lowest total monthly cost. This includes monthly plans, pay-as-you-go pricing, and overage fees, since the cheapest option is not always the provider’s advertised package.

At the tested price points, the lowest datacenter option costs substantially less. However, fixed charges can reduce that advantage for some providers at 10–50 GB.
Volume discounts are concentrated in larger plans. Some products also keep the same total charge across several low-volume points, increasing the effective cost when the buyer needs a small amount of traffic.
