The Proxy6 alternative for mobile, rotating residential and Mac servers
Proxy6 rents single IPv4 and IPv6 addresses cheaply, and we are not going to pretend otherwise. What it does not rent is a phone on a carrier network, a rotating residential pool or a Mac. This page sets out where each of us is the better buy.

Proxy6 sells personal proxies in about the simplest way there is. You pick a country, a count and a period, pay, and an address appears in your account. For a single dedicated IPv4 address, or a few hundred IPv6 ones, its price is hard to beat.
People reach a Proxy6 alternative page for a different reason: a target started treating their rented addresses as what they are, or the job grew past a list of static IPs. Mobile traffic, a pool that rotates, a held residential session, a Mac to run it all on. Proxy6 sells none of those.
So we read their order form, price table, FAQ, API page and company details, and dated every fact. Each Proxy6 figure below links to the page it came from; each of our prices is read live from our catalogue. We sell proxies, so read this as our case, with the places they beat us written down plainly.

What Proxy6 actually sells
Proxy6's catalogue is dedicated IPv4, IPv6, shared IPv4 and Telegram-only MTproto proxies, with no mobile or rotating residential product. Every one of those is an address you rent for a period: you choose a country, a count and a length, and it is issued automatically right after payment. That is the whole model, and it is a clean one.
The addresses come as HTTPS and SOCKS5 on the same proxy at once, with login and password, or by IP. Dedicated IPv4 goes to one customer, which its order page makes a point of, and the shared tier is used by up to 3 people. The published line speeds are 10 Mbit/s on IPv4 and shared IPv4, and 30 Mbit/s on IPv6.
ResiFactory sells a different shape of product: residential and mobile bandwidth by the gigabyte, static ISP proxies, and Mac servers by the day or the month. The catalogues touch at one point, a static address you keep. On that point Proxy6 is cheaper; on the rest it has no product to price.
The per-IP price, conceded
Dedicated IPv4 at Proxy6 is $1.50 per IP for one month, at 1 to 99 IPs, and $1.238 per IP for one month from 100 IPs. Shared IPv4 is $0.413 per IP for one month, used by up to 3 people. IPv6 is $0.258 per IP for one month at 1 to 9 IPs, falling to $0.084 from 500 IPs.
Those are low numbers. If you need a handful of addresses in a handful of countries, each yours for a month, Proxy6 will sell them for less than any static product of ours.
Our static product is single IPs from $1.25 per IP a month (minimum 50 IPs), or a whole /24 for $255 a month. A whole /24 goes to one customer and looks like a network, not single addresses from a list. If you only need a few, we are the wrong size, and we would rather say so.
Where the comparison stops is bandwidth. Proxy6 sells no residential or mobile traffic, so there is nothing to set against our Essential rate of $1.50/GB or our Mobile rate of $3.00/GB. See pricing for our full sheet.
IPv6: cheap, and narrower than it looks
Proxy6's IPv6 is the cheapest line in its table, and Proxy6 is upfront that it is usable only on sites that support IPv6, reached through an IPv4-to-IPv6 tunnel. A target that answers only over IPv4 never sees it.
That is the trade with IPv6 everywhere, not a Proxy6 problem. We do not sell IPv6, so this is a straight concession: if your targets accept it, Proxy6 is the better buy.
Mobile and rotating residential: what Proxy6 does not sell
This is where the catalogues part. A rented static address, however clean, is one fixed address in one range, and a target that checks the network type or the range's history can tell.
ResiFactory Mobile is $3.00/GB, on real phones attached to carrier networks in 150 countries. It is the pool to use when a site expects a phone. See mobile proxies.
Our residential pools are Essential at $1.50/GB and Premium at $3.00/GB. Every request can take a fresh exit, or you can hold one address for up to 24 hours (120 minutes on Essential), with the longer holds on Premium and Mobile. See residential proxies.
Proxy6 has no equivalent of either, and a fresh list from the same kind of range rarely fixes a list that has started failing.
Targeting that comes with the pool
At Proxy6, location is chosen once, when you buy: you pick country, count and period, the only three choices in its order form. Another country means another address. For static work that is all you need.
Our targeting lives in the username. Every pool takes a country, a US state and a network (ASN), and Premium and Mobile add city. Change the username and the next request comes from somewhere else, with no new order.
Proxy6 covers 64 countries for dedicated IPv4, 11 for shared IPv4 and 10 for IPv6, some with no stock on the day we read it. Our residential and mobile pools cover 150 countries, with state, city and ASN included in the per-gigabyte price.
Static addresses: a single IP or a whole subnet
Proxy6 sells single addresses, from a single IP, across 64 countries for dedicated IPv4, 11 for shared IPv4 and 10 for IPv6, some with no stock on the day we read it. You get exactly as many as you need, where you need them, and each dedicated address is yours alone.
We sell single IPs from $1.25 per IP a month (minimum 50 IPs), or a whole /24 for $255 a month, and each whole /24 goes to one customer. Our ISP proxies are US ranges today, international to follow, sold in restock windows, members first and then everyone, and every address answers on HTTP and SOCKS5.
A few addresses abroad: Proxy6 fits and we do not. A block of US addresses nobody else rents a corner of: see ISP proxies.
Mac servers, which Proxy6 does not rent
Proxy6 sells proxies and nothing to run them on. Its catalogue is dedicated IPv4, IPv6, shared IPv4 and Telegram-only MTproto proxies, with no mobile or rotating residential product.
We rent Mac servers alongside the proxies, from $32 a day or $160 a month. The shortest rental is a day rental from $32, 24 hours counted from when the Mac is ready, so a short test costs a short test.
The table below is read live from our catalogue, with out-of-stock builds marked rather than hidden.
| Build | Memory and line | Day | Month | Three-month term |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Mac mini M4 Pro Out of stock | 24 GB · 1 Gbps | $52 | $260/mo | $250/mo |
| Mac mini M4 | 16 GB · 1 Gbps | $32 | $160/mo | $150/mo |
| Mac mini M6 | 16 GB · 2.5 Gbps | $42 | $210/mo | $200/mo |
| Mac mini M5 Pro | 24 GB · 2.5 Gbps | $72 | $290/mo | $280/mo |
Refunds, limits and the fine print
Proxy6 offers a 1-day money-back guarantee that lapses once the proxies have been used, and no refund on shared IPv4. It also allows a replacement in the first day after purchase, for a valid reason. Both are clear, but both are short: you have to test on the day you buy, and testing counts as use.
Ours are requests within 14 days of a top-up, under the refund policy. That is the longer window by a distance, and the one point on this page purely in our favour.
Proxy6's FAQ also says port 25 is closed, and PayPal and Steam do not work through its network, which is worth reading before you buy. Our acceptable use policy sets out what our network is not for.
For automation, Proxy6 has an API for buying and renewing proxies, limited to 3 requests a second. Ours is in the API reference.
A Russian-first shop
Proxy6 is run by PROXY SIX LLC, with a registered address in the Moscow region. Its support channels are online chat, VK, Telegram and email, its API reports an account currency of RUB or USD, and it still has a personal-proxy guide that its English menu serves in Russian. The English site is complete enough to buy from, but the business is built for a Russian-speaking market first.
For a Russian-speaking buyer that is a point in Proxy6's favour. For an English-speaking team paying in US dollars by card, it is a real difference. We bill in US dollars through Stripe or by SOL, and answer in Discord tickets and email.
The verdict, in one paragraph
If you need single dedicated IPv4 addresses, IPv6 in bulk, or a static address in a country our ISP ranges do not cover, Proxy6 is cheaper and broader than we are, and you should buy from them.
If you need mobile, a rotating residential pool, a session held on a real household connection, state, city or ASN targeting without buying a new address, or a Mac to run the work on, Proxy6 has no product to compare. That is the case for us.
The overlap is static addresses, and there the choice is shape: single IPs abroad from Proxy6, or a whole US subnet owned by one customer from us.
ResiFactory is the right call if
- You need real phones on carrier networks. Mobile is $3.00/GB across 150 countries. Proxy6 has dedicated IPv4, IPv6, shared IPv4 and Telegram-only MTproto proxies, with no mobile or rotating residential product.
- You need a residential exit that rotates per request, or one held for a whole flow. Essential is $1.50/GB, Premium is $3.00/GB, and a sticky session holds for up to 24 hours (120 minutes on Essential); the longer holds are Premium and Mobile.
- You need state, city or ASN targeting set in the username and included in the price; at Proxy6 you pick country, count and period, the only three choices in its order form.
- You want a Mac to run the work on. Ours are from $32 a day or $160 a month, and the shortest is a day rental from $32, 24 hours counted from when the Mac is ready.
- You want a refund window you can use: ours is 14 days from a top-up. Proxy6 offers a 1-day money-back guarantee that lapses once the proxies have been used, and no refund on shared IPv4.
When Proxy6 is the right call instead
- You want one dedicated IPv4 address, or a few dozen, for a month. Proxy6 sells them at $1.50 per IP for one month, at 1 to 99 IPs, starting from a single IP; our smallest static purchase is 50 single IPs.
- You need IPv6 in quantity and your targets accept it. Proxy6 lists $0.258 per IP for one month at 1 to 9 IPs, falling to $0.084 from 500 IPs. We do not sell IPv6 at all.
- You need a static address outside the US. Proxy6's order form lists 64 countries for dedicated IPv4, 11 for shared IPv4 and 10 for IPv6, some with no stock on the day we read it; our ISP subnets are US ranges today, international to follow.
- You want an address for a few days rather than a month. The shortest Proxy6 rental is 3 days on IPv6 and 7 days on IPv4 and shared IPv4, and dedicated IPv4 runs $0.35 per IP for one week.
What public reviews say
Linked, not quoted. We copy no review score onto this page.
Proxy6 reports more than 1.1 million clients, by its own count. It appears across review sites and proxy roundups; we quote none of their scores, because a copied figure is a claim we cannot keep current.
Our own record is the trust page, and our prices are read live on this page rather than typed into it.
Switching from Proxy6
Sign in with Google, Apple, email, a passkey or Discord. There is no application and no sales call, and you can top up the pool you need from $0.50.
Our credentials are host:port:user:pass lines, so most tools that took a Proxy6 login and password take the new line with no other change.
Country, US state, ASN and session go in the username, and Premium and Mobile add city. The API reference has the syntax.
Want to test first? We offer 1 GB of Premium free when a new account links Google; it goes on your balance, so what you measure is the product.
FAQ
Is ResiFactory cheaper than Proxy6?
Not for single static addresses. Proxy6's dedicated IPv4 is $1.50 per IP for one month, at 1 to 99 IPs; our static product is single IPs from $1.25 per IP a month (minimum 50 IPs), or a whole /24 for $255 a month. For mobile and rotating residential there is nothing to compare, because Proxy6 does not sell them.
Does Proxy6 sell mobile or residential proxies?
No. Its catalogue is dedicated IPv4, IPv6, shared IPv4 and Telegram-only MTproto proxies, with no mobile or rotating residential product. Our Mobile pool is $3.00/GB.
Can I buy a single static IP from ResiFactory?
No. The smallest static purchase is 50 single IPs. If you need one address, Proxy6 sells from a single IP and is the better fit for that size.
Do Proxy6's IPv6 proxies work on every site?
No. Proxy6 says they are usable only on sites that support IPv6, reached through an IPv4-to-IPv6 tunnel. We do not sell IPv6.
How long can a session stay on one IP?
A sticky session holds for up to 24 hours (120 minutes on Essential); the longer holds are Premium and Mobile. A Proxy6 address is static, so it stays the same until the rental ends.
Do you support SOCKS5?
Yes, on Premium, Mobile and ISP, on port 1080. HTTP runs on port 7777 on every pool. Proxy6 serves HTTPS and SOCKS5 on the same proxy at once.
Other comparisons
HypeProxies alternative
Switch if you need rotating residential, mobile or non-US IPs, or a Mac by the day. HypeProxies sells static US ISP IPs and servers.
Webshare alternative
Switch if you are buying rotating bandwidth by the gigabyte and need a wider country list than 50+ countries. Webshare wins on a free plan and cheap single static IPs.
IPRoyal alternative
Switch if you want a small residential test without a KYC check or a volume ladder. IPRoyal sells more product lines and holds longer sessions.
