Proxynade vs Webshare

Price by price, as listed June 2026

Competitor figures below are taken from Webshare's public pricing pages and are dated because they change. Proxynade figures are our own current rates.

Residential bandwidth: Proxynade is cheaper at entry, flat at scale

Webshare residential was listed at $3.50/GB at 1GB, $2.25/GB at 100GB, $1.75/GB at 500GB, and $1.40/GB at 3,000GB, on its 50 percent sale as shown on their pricing page, as listed June 2026. Those tiers step down as you prepay more. Proxynade Volume Residential is $0.89/GB and stays $0.89/GB with no tier ladder, no minimum, and no subscription.

That means Proxynade is the cheaper rate until very large prepaid volume. Webshare's $1.40/GB at 3,000GB can edge a specific high-volume use, but it needs a big prepay to reach. Proxynade holds $0.89/GB from the first gigabyte with no commitment.

For hard targets that block volume pools, Proxynade Premium Residential is $5.00/GB, in the range of enterprise premium residential, without a sales call or KYC. ISP and ASN targeting live on Premium; country, region, and city targeting work on Volume.

Static ISP: Webshare shared is cheaper, Proxynade dedicated removes the bandwidth bill

This is where Webshare wins on raw per-IP price. Webshare shared static residential was listed at $0.30/IP at 20 IPs, down to $0.225/IP at 10,000 IPs in a 250GB band, as listed June 2026. Those are shared IPs with a bandwidth allotment. If you need a handful of static IPs and traffic per IP is light, that is the cheaper buy, and we will say so plainly.

Proxynade Static ISP is different: dedicated IPs with unlimited bandwidth, priced per IP on a graduated scale. The rate is $2.00/IP for 1 to 24, $1.73 for 25 to 49, $1.49 for 50 to 99, $1.40 for 100 to 199, and $1.30 for 200 or more. There is no per-GB charge on top. Once traffic per IP is heavy, a dedicated unlimited IP can be the cheaper total, and the IP is yours alone.

Pick by shape of the job. Light traffic, many cheap shared IPs: Webshare. Heavy traffic on dedicated IPs with no bandwidth meter: Proxynade.

Access and checkout: start now, privately

Both providers skip KYC, and Webshare offers 10 free proxies to try. Proxynade adds crypto and stablecoin checkout: Litecoin, plus USDT and USDC on BNB Chain and Solana. There is no minimum spend and no sales call. You sign up, generate lines, and run.

Connection is through one gateway at proxynade.net:2555, on http, https, socks5, and socks5h. The plan, target country, and session window all live in the expanded username, so the same gateway serves every product.

Transparency: the meter and your app count different things

Per-GB rates only become a real bill once bytes move. The provider meter counts everything that crossed the exit: redirect chains, failed TLS attempts, blocked HTML, image requests, and retries. Your app counter records accepted rows or parsed results, which is a subset. On runs where a browser does the heavy lifting, a clean morning report can sit several GB ahead on the provider side by noon.

Proxynade's dashboard shows per-request network logs with host, outcome, latency, and byte totals, and exports to CSV. That makes cost per kept result auditable. Run those logs beside your own count on a small capped test before scaling, and log the HTTP codes too. A 407 means credentials failed at the proxy. A 403 means the target refused. A 429 means rate limiting. If those rates are high before you scale, they will be high after.

When Webshare is the better pick

We are not going to pretend Proxynade wins every line. Webshare is the better choice if you mainly need cheap shared static IPs and your bandwidth per IP is low. It is also worth a look if you want its advertised 80M plus residential pool and are buying very large residential volume, where its $1.40/GB floor at 3,000GB can come into play after a sizable prepay.

For most buyers, the entry rate, the flat $0.89/GB, dedicated unlimited static IPs, and crypto checkout with no KYC are the deciding factors. Match the table to your job and the answer is usually clear.
