ISP proxies are static IP addresses registered to regular internet service providers but hosted on servers in a data center. To a website the connection looks like a home or office broadband subscriber; to you it behaves like a dedicated datacenter proxy that never drops offline, never changes and does not depend on somebody else's router. That is why they are also called static residential proxies.
ProxyFarm sells ISP proxies in 24 countries from $3.00 per IP for 30 days, $3.60 in the USA, and from $2.70 per IP on orders of 100 or more. The address is yours for the whole paid term, and the term can be a month, 3 months or a year.

How ISP proxies work
Every IP address is registered to an organization and its autonomous system (ASN). Anti-fraud systems and geolocation databases such as MaxMind, IPinfo and IP2Location look at that owner: a hosting company's range is labelled hosting or datacenter, an access provider's range is labelled ISP or residential. A datacenter IPv4 honestly belongs to a data center, which is why some platforms greet it with a captcha or an extra check.
With ISP proxies the address block is registered to a provider that connects home and business subscribers, while the server using it sits in a rack with a dedicated uplink. The result is a hybrid: the IP type of an ordinary subscriber and the predictability of a server. Unlike rotating residential proxies, traffic does not pass through other people's home devices, so a session does not break when such a node goes offline.
ISP vs datacenter vs residential proxies
| Criterion | ISP proxies | Dedicated IPv4 | Residential |
|---|---|---|---|
| Address owner | access provider (ISP) | data center, hosting | ISP, home subscriber |
| IP database label | ISP / residential | hosting / datacenter | residential |
| Address persistence | static for the whole term | static for the whole term | new per request or sticky up to 30 min |
| Uplink | datacenter, stable | datacenter, up to 1 Gbit/s | depends on the subscriber node |
| Billing | per IP per term | per IP per term | per GB of traffic |
| Price | from $3.00 per 30 days | from $1.73 per 30 days | from $2.79 per GB |
| Coverage | 24 countries | 43 countries | 48 countries, city-level |
Rule of thumb: if the platform accepts datacenter ranges, do not overpay for ISP and take dedicated IPv4. If you need a constantly changing pool for data collection, residential is the tool. ISP proxies fill the gap between them: the same provider address for weeks or months.
When to choose ISP proxies
- Long-lived accounts. Seller accounts on Amazon, eBay or Etsy, a Facebook business page, an ad account. The platform remembers the login IP, and a stable provider address looks more natural than a hosting range or a fresh IP from a pool every time.
- Long, traffic-heavy sessions. Video uploads, heavy web dashboards, hours spent in one profile. On residential billing this burns gigabytes fast: 5 GB a month for one account costs $27.45 at the 5 GB pack rate of $5.49 per GB, while a US ISP address is $3.60 for 30 days because you pay per IP and term, not per GB.
- Platforms that block data centers. If a datacenter IPv4 hits a captcha at every step and you do not need rotation, an ISP address in the same country is the next step.
- Repeatable ad and SERP checks from one country and one address, so results from different days can be compared.
When you do not need ISP proxies: for bulk scraping with a new IP on every request, rotating proxies are cheaper, and for simple jobs on tolerant sites dedicated IPv4 from $1.73 does the same work for less.
ISP proxy locations: 24 countries

- Americas: USA, Canada, Brazil.
- Europe: United Kingdom, Germany, Netherlands, France, Spain, Italy, Austria, Poland, Czech Republic, Romania, Latvia, Ukraine.
- Turkey and the Middle East: Turkey, Israel.
- Asia: Japan, South Korea, Taiwan, Hong Kong, Singapore, Thailand, India.
If the country you need is not on the list, check dedicated IPv4 in 43 countries and the residential pool in 48. Market pages: USA proxies, Germany, Europe, Turkey, Ukraine.
Terms and volume pricing
ISP proxies are rented for 30, 90 or 365 days. A month is enough to test an address on your platform. Longer terms beat paying monthly: in the USA 90 days cost $10.26 instead of $10.80 and a year $38.02 instead of $43.20, about 5 % and 12 % less.
The second discount is for volume. Taking the USA as an example: $3.60 for a single IP, $3.50 from 10, $3.24 from 50 and $3.06 from 100. For a team running dozens of accounts, the gap between the first and the last tier is about 15 %.
Setup and verification
After payment the address appears in your dashboard as ip:port:login:password, with HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 supported. Add it to an anti-detect browser profile (Dolphin Anty, AdsPower, Octo Browser, GoLogin), to a scraper or to system settings, exactly like any other proxy. One profile, one address.
To confirm the address resolves as a provider IP, run it through our proxy checker: it shows the exit IP, country and provider. Then match the profile's time zone and language to the IP's country, because a mismatch there gives a proxy away just as surely as a datacenter ASN.
FAQ
How are ISP proxies different from residential proxies?
Residential proxies are a pool of home subscriber addresses: the IP changes on every request or holds for up to 30 minutes, and you pay per GB. An ISP proxy is one static provider address assigned to you for the rental term, and you pay per IP. The first suits data collection, the second suits accounts and long sessions.
Does the IP of an ISP proxy change?
No, the address is static for the whole paid term of 30, 90 or 365 days. If it does not work on your platform, we replace it free of charge within 24 hours of delivery.
How many accounts can I run through one ISP address?
One account per platform per address. Different platforms, say Amazon and Facebook, can share an address, but each account needs its own browser profile.
Can I buy a single ISP proxy?
Yes, the minimum order is one address for 30 days: from $3.00, $3.60 in the USA. For 3 months or a year the monthly price is lower.
Why do ISP proxies cost more than datacenter IPv4?
There are far fewer addresses registered to access providers than to hosting companies, and platforms treat them as ordinary subscribers. If your platform is fine with datacenter ranges, you will see no difference in results, so dedicated IPv4 from $1.73 is the better deal.
