- Decodo — PAYG Wallet: Usage charge of $4/GB plus VAT, bought one GB at a time through a Wallet top-up. The pricing page states no minimum top-up, so the Wallet funding minimum is still unverified. Decodo's licence says Wallet credits expire if unused for 12 months; the pricing page states no expiry for PAYG GB. Sources (read 2026-11-12): https://decodo.com/proxies/residential-proxies/pricing ; https://decodo.com/legal/license-agreement
- Decodo — Monthly regular plans: Regular monthly cards: 3 GB $11.25 ($3.75/GB), 10 GB $35, 25 GB $81.25, 50 GB $150, 100 GB $275 ($2.75/GB), all plus VAT. At 1 GB used you buy the 3 GB card; unused paid capacity does not lower that month's cash. No regular card reaches 1,000 GB; the 1 TB enterprise card is a separate row.

- Decodo — Enterprise1TB advertised tier: The enterprise 1000 GB card lists $2/GB, $2,000 plus VAT monthly (the 250 GB enterprise card is $2.50/GB, $625). On 2026-11-12 the 1000 GB card carried a Buy now button, but I did not go through checkout, so renewal, upfront and selected-quote terms remain unverified; not a firm invoice.

- Bright Data — PAYG list usage: $8/GB is the struck-through list price on the PAYG card; the payable price shown with the RESIGB50 coupon is $4/GB (separate row). These are usage charges, not proven minimum initial funding. Bright Data's docs say residential access needs a KYC review, is for verified companies only and is not available to personal-email accounts. Not claimed as the cheapest Bright Data plan.

- Bright Data — RESIGB50 PAYG: Promotional price, not list: the banner says code RESIGB50 gives 50% off residential proxies for 3 months, and the PAYG card shows $4/GB against a struck-through $8/GB. Coupon acceptance, account applicability and the price after the promotion were not tested. The coupon-priced monthly cards ($499/141 GB, $999/332 GB, $1,999/798 GB) are not modeled. The first-deposit match (up to $500) is excluded.

- IPRoyal — Subscription selected public cards: Subscription cards (labelled 5% off): 1 GB $7.00; 2 GB $5.95/GB ($11.90); 10 GB $5.25/GB ($52.50); custom $1.75/GB from 10 TB. No card sits between 10 GB and 10 TB, so 100 GB and 1,000 GB amounts are withheld; do not extrapolate the 10 TB rate. The page lists never-expiring traffic. Listed tariffs exclude any Service Fee and applicable tax; terms §6.17 says the fee may be fixed or a percentage, shown when the order, payment or deposit is placed, with no amount stated.

- IPRoyal — PAYG regular public cards: Pay As You Go cards: 1 GB $7.35; 2 GB $6.25/GB ($12.50); 10 GB $5.51/GB ($55.10); custom $1.84/GB from 10 TB. 100 GB and 1,000 GB amounts are withheld, not approximated by repeated packs. Listed tariffs exclude any Service Fee and applicable tax; terms §6.17 says the fee may be fixed or a percentage, with no amount stated.

- Webshare — Advertised discounted monthly: Monthly cards: 1 GB $3.50 (no discount shown), 100 GB $225 ($2.25/GB, SAVE 36%), 1,000 GB $1,500 ($1.50/GB, SAVE 57%). The SAVE figures are volume discounts against a struck-through $3.50/GB. Webshare's Cyber Month terms say that from the first renewal you pay the standard price of your plan including any quantity discount that then applies, so the discount renews; only the extra 25% from code CYBER26 (first month of a new monthly plan, November 9 to December 9, 2026) is excluded here. Monthly bandwidth does not roll over, per Webshare's help centre. Yearly billing is not modeled.

- Webshare — Crossed-out reference list: Every card above 1 GB shows a struck-through $3.50/GB reference ($350 on the 100 GB card, $3,500 on the 1,000 GB card); the 1 GB card is sold at $3.50. Until November 12 this row held a $7/GB reference from the October 16 read; the live page now shows $3.50, and I can't tell from it whether the reference changed or the earlier read was wrong. Reference only: above 1 GB these totals are not a purchasable route; never rank them against checkout offers. Source (read 2026-11-12): https://www.webshare.io/residential-proxy
- DataImpulse — Standard residential returning buyer: Cards: Intro $5/5 GB (one-time, new customers), Basic $50/50 GB, Advanced $800/1 TB, Custom from $4,000 (5 TB+). The page says "Buy any volume you like. Unused GBs never expire" and "No subscription, no monthly minimum". The 1 GB case still models the $50 Basic card (49 GB retained) because the page does not show a returning buyer purchasing a single GB; 100 GB uses the $1/GB any-volume line ($100); 1 TB uses the $800 Advanced card. No monthly renewal assumed. Sources: https://dataimpulse.com/residential-proxies/ (read 2026-11-12) ; terms https://dataimpulse.com/terms-of-services/ (last read 2026-10-16)
- DataImpulse — Standard Intro new customer: The Intro card is labelled one-time, new customers: $5 buys 5 GB, so 1 GB consumed leaves 4 GB, which the page says never expire. Not $5/month or a $1 initial checkout. Sources: https://dataimpulse.com/residential-proxies/ (read 2026-11-12) ; terms https://dataimpulse.com/terms-of-services/ (last read 2026-10-16)
- Nimble — KYC-only raw residential proxy: On 2026-11-12 the pricing page listed API plans and per-request prices plus a Media API at $2/GB, but no raw residential proxy price; the proxy quickstart says the proxy service requires KYC verification and is not available to self-service accounts. Raw residential USD/GB, minimum and expiry are unpublished, so numeric fields are omitted; Media API and API request prices are excluded.

How this data was collected
I first compiled these twelve scenarios across six vendors from 31 primary public pages on October 16, 2026. On November 12, 2026 I re-read each vendor's live residential pricing page (Decodo, Bright Data, IPRoyal, Webshare, DataImpulse, Nimble), plus Decodo's licence agreement, Bright Data's residential network-access docs, IPRoyal's terms §6.17, Webshare's Cyber Month (CYBER26) terms and bandwidth help article, and Nimble's proxy quickstart. Browser reads of the same pricing pages that day gave the same prices. One value changed: Webshare's struck-through reference is now $3.50/GB on every card, not the $7/GB recorded on October 16, so the reference row was recalculated. All other amounts were unchanged; several notes were corrected. Supporting pages I did not re-open on November 12 are marked "last read 2026-10-16" in the row notes. These are published offers, not executed purchases, observed account entitlements, invoices or performance measurements.
Amounts have three different meanings: advertised-purchase is the published payment for a sufficient allowance; metered-usage-only excludes unverified wallet funding minimums; reference-only is a crossed-out comparison amount and is not a purchasable offer. Unpriced rows omit numeric cells. Never rank these meanings as equivalent checkout costs.
Target usage is 1, 100 or 1,000 decimal GB. Effective USD/GB equals the scenario amount divided by consumed GB. A prepaid minimum can buy unused traffic: DataImpulse Basic costs $50 for 50 GB even if only 1 GB is consumed. Retained traffic is not discarded, but its value does not reduce the initial cash payment. Repeated small packs and invented bulk discounts are excluded.
Ordinary, conditional promotion, advertised discount, new-customer-only, reference-only and quote-only routes stay separate. Coupon acceptance, account applicability, taxes and payment minimums were not tested. Bright Data's displayed residential prices are RESIGB50 coupon prices (50% off for three months), not list prices: PAYG shows $4/GB against a struck-through $8/GB, and the monthly cards of $499/141 GB, $999/332 GB and $1,999/798 GB match coupon rates of about $3.50, $3 and $2.50/GB, against struck-through list rates of $7, $6 and $5/GB. I keep list and coupon in separate rows, and the coupon-priced monthly cards are not modeled. Webshare's SAVE percentages are volume discounts: its Cyber Month terms say renewals bill the standard price including any quantity discount that then applies, so they are not a first-month sale; only the extra 25% from code CYBER26 (first month of a new monthly plan, November 9 to December 9, 2026) is excluded. Decodo's 1 TB enterprise card shows $2,000 plus VAT; I did not go through checkout, so it stays a qualified headline, not an invoice.
IPRoyal public 1 GB and 10 GB subscription/PAYG selections are distinct; missing 100 GB and 1,000 GB quotes are withheld. Nimble Proxy documentation exists, but no public raw residential USD/GB tariff was established. Media API bandwidth rates are not substituted for a raw proxy tariff.
Expiry, trial conversion, KYC, target permissions and supplier assurances require separate checks. Vendor consent or compliance statements are not an independent audit of IP participants. No success, latency, geography, residential origin or bandwidth-meter equivalence was measured. Verify the exact account offer and terms before purchase.
