What Proxy-Seller is built around: dedicated IPs
The name is literal. Proxy-Seller, trading since 2017, is a proxy shop, and its centre of gravity has always been the dedicated static IP: you pick a country, pick a quantity, pick a rental term running from about a week up to a year, pay, and receive a list of addresses assigned exclusively to your account for that term. Delivery is automated and near-instant. That model is mature there and it works.
The catalogue has since widened to cover most of the category: dedicated IPv4 datacenter proxies, IPv6, static ISP lines, a rotating residential pool billed per gigabyte, and mobile ports in both shared and dedicated form. Independent reviewers consistently rate the static products — IPv4 and ISP in particular — more highly than the rotating residential pool, which is a reasonable reflection of where the company's engineering history sits. Support is 24/7, multilingual and reachable through live chat and messengers, and payment options are unusually broad.
If your work depends on holding the same address for weeks, Proxy-Seller is a sensible place to buy it and there is no argument for moving. The comparison below is only about the residential half of their catalogue.
- Stay with Proxy-Seller if you need dedicated IPv4 or IPv6 datacenter addresses
- Stay if you run accounts that must sit behind a static ISP IP for months
- Stay if you want one vendor covering every proxy type on a single invoice
- Stay if buying by the IP, rather than by the gigabyte, is how your budgeting works
Proxy-Seller rental terms vs non-expiring bandwidth
Both providers reach real residential addresses, and at the packet level a session through either looks much the same to a target site. The structural difference is what happens to what you paid for when you are not using it.
Proxy-Seller's model is time-boxed by design. Static IPs run on a rental term, so an address you stop using in week two of a three-month term still ends when the term ends. On the residential side, traffic is sold as monthly packages, and reviewers who have tracked this report that unused traffic does not carry into the following period — so the practical exercise is forecasting your consumption for the next thirty days and buying against that estimate.
Nefo's flexible plans are non-expiring: bandwidth sits in the account until traffic actually passes through a credential. Nothing runs down while a project is paused. Whether that matters depends entirely on your load shape. If you scrape a steady volume every day of every month, a monthly package is a perfectly efficient container and this difference is close to academic. If your work is seasonal, campaign-driven, or split into irregular bursts of research, the non-expiring balance removes the forecasting exercise altogether.
What Nefo sells differently from Proxy-Seller
Worth stating plainly before anything else: Proxy-Seller is built around buying addresses, while Nefo is built around buying traffic. Nefo does sell static residential ISP IPs in 24 countries, dedicated datacenter IPv4 and IPv6, and IP Vault for keeping a residential IP. But rotating residential is billed per gigabyte, not per address.
The product range is broader than it used to be. There is still a residential pool reaching 227 countries and territories, billed per gigabyte. And 4G/5G mobile proxies as ports on real carrier modems, one live rotating mobile IP per port, rented per duration from hours up to thirty days rather than per gigabyte, with US state- and carrier-level targeting.
So this is not a like-for-like replacement for every kind of Proxy-Seller account. It is a close replacement for the residential side, and for some static-address use cases Nefo now has its own alternatives. Plenty of teams run both, which is a legitimate outcome rather than a fudge.
How Nefo residential proxies work
The entry point is 5GB ($4.50). Not a trial credit or a restricted tier — the smallest ordinary plan is 5GB at the standard non-expiring terms, which is enough to test a target site properly before committing anything.
Credentials are generated free and without limit; only traffic through them draws down the balance. That means you can build a credential per country, per project, or per crawler, and attribute usage cleanly in the dashboard or by CSV export, without paying per endpoint.
- HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5, all with username/password authentication
- Rotating sessions: a new IP on each request, for distributed collection
- Sticky sessions: the same IP held from one minute up to twenty-four hours, set per credential
- Country targeting across 227 countries and territories; US down to state and city; region and city in selected countries including the UK, Canada, Germany and France
- ASN/ISP targeting, paired with a country, to pin traffic to a specific carrier or network operator
- Usage visible per credential in the dashboard, exportable as CSV
How to switch from Proxy-Seller to Nefo
For a rotating residential workload the migration is shallow, because both sides speak the same thing: a gateway host and port with username/password credentials. In most codebases the change is a host, a port and a credential pair in configuration, and nothing above that layer moves.
Two details usually need attention. First, session handling — if you rely on Proxy-Seller's sticky sessions with a TTL, map that onto a Nefo sticky credential with an equivalent duration rather than assuming defaults match; anything holding a session longer than twenty-four hours needs rethinking on either platform. Second, geo granularity — if your current setup targets by country and city, confirm the equivalent Nefo targeting resolves the way you expect on your specific targets before you cut over, since pool composition differs between any two providers and success rates are target-specific.
The sane sequence is to buy the minimum, run a real subset of production traffic through it in parallel for a few days, compare block rates and response times against your existing setup on the same targets, and only then decide. A static ISP workload ports across only where Nefo covers your country; a datacenter or fixed-IP workload may also move, but it is a different product from the residential plans discussed here and should be evaluated separately.
Proxy-Seller or Nefo: which fits your workload
Neither provider is broadly better; they are built around different assumptions about what you are buying. Proxy-Seller assumes you are buying addresses, with residential as one line in a wide catalogue. Nefo assumes you are buying traffic first, even though it now also sells static IPs, datacenter proxies, servers and other products.
The honest split looks like this.
- Proxy-Seller: dedicated static IPs, long-held account identities, multi-product consolidation under one vendor, buyers who prefer per-IP pricing
- Nefo: rotating residential collection billed strictly by consumption, irregular or seasonal load, teams that want unused budget to survive a quiet month
- Nefo: small or exploratory projects where a 5GB commitment beats a monthly package, and ASN-level or US city-level targeting matters
- Both: static IPs from Proxy-Seller for persistent identities, Nefo bandwidth for burst scraping — a common and reasonable arrangement
Frequently asked questions
For residential traffic, Nefo has no monthly package to forecast. You pay $0.90/GB at 5 GB, down to $0.53/GB at 10 TB, and unused bandwidth never expires. Reviewers report that Proxy-Seller's unused monthly residential traffic does not carry into the next period. See pricing.
Often, yes. Nefo sells static residential ISP IPs in 24 countries from $1.76 for 7 days, dedicated datacenter IPv4 from $1.17 for 7 days, IPv6 from $0.72 for 30 days, and IP Vault. Check that your countries and rental terms match before moving long-lived accounts.
No. Bandwidth stays on your balance until traffic passes through it, so a paused project costs nothing. This is the biggest difference from a monthly package, where you forecast the next thirty days of consumption and buy against that estimate.
Yes to both. Residential proxies work over HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5, and sessions either rotate on every request or stay sticky from 1 minute up to 24 hours. See sticky session proxies.
5 GB for $4.50, on the standard non-expiring terms rather than a restricted trial. Credentials are free, so you can create separate ones per target or region and compare block rates against your Proxy-Seller traffic on identical requests.
Both sell mobile ports on real carrier modems. Nefo's mobile proxies include a dedicated port by the day from $1.00/day, with free modem, IP and location changes, and metered mobile from $3.90/GB. Proxy-Seller's mobile range is wider on geography and offers shared and dedicated options.
