Our verdict
ProxyScrape earned its audience with genuinely useful free lists, and its paid tier honours the same virtue: simple, API-consumable proxy access without enterprise ceremony. The unlimited-bandwidth datacenter subscriptions are quietly good value for bulk tolerant-target work.
The residential line is mid-pack — country-level targeting, moderate success rates — and the free lists remain what free proxies always are.
A natural next step up from free-list hacking; not a premium-pool substitute.

Overview
ProxyScrape is best known for its massive free proxy lists — a staple of tutorials and quick hacks since 2018 — and has built a paid business alongside: rotating residential traffic, premium datacenter lists with unlimited bandwidth, and API-driven delivery.
Network and coverage
The paid residential network advertises 10M+ IPs with country targeting over HTTP(S) and SOCKS5; premium datacenter subscriptions deliver refreshed IP lists with unlimited bandwidth. Everything is consumable by API, reflecting its list-serving heritage.
Who it is for
Developers graduating from the free lists who want the same simple consumption model with real reliability, and bulk workloads that fit the unlimited-bandwidth datacenter subscriptions.
Trade-offs
The free lists that built the brand are (as all free proxies) slow, dead-heavy, and hostile territory; the paid residential tier is serviceable but mid-pack in quality and targeting granularity. Belgium-based, with a lean feature set.

Frequently asked questions
Free public proxies — from any source — are slow, mostly dead at any moment, and potentially operated by unknown parties who can observe traffic. Fine for casual experiments; never for anything involving credentials or real data.
Rotating residential traffic from a 10M+ advertised pool with country targeting, HTTP(S)/SOCKS5, and API delivery, at mid-market per-GB rates.
Flat-rate subscriptions to refreshed datacenter IP lists with unlimited bandwidth — economical for bulk workloads on tolerant targets.
Everything is API-first: list endpoints return current proxies in plain formats your tooling can ingest directly, matching the free-list workflow developers already know.
The residential tier handles mainstream sites; heavily defended targets convert better on premium pools with finer targeting and cleaner supply.
