SerpProxies costs a little more at that size ($1.15/GB at 10 GB) but is cheaper from about 80 GB up, includes city and ASN targeting at no extra cost, has a free trial, and sells the static ISP, IPv6 and unlimited proxies DataImpulse doesn't.

At 10 GB DataImpulse is cheaper ($1.00/GB against our $1.15/GB). Our rate falls as you buy more and becomes the cheaper of the two from about 80 GB; by 1 TB we're at $0.65/GB against DataImpulse's $0.80/GB. If you need city or ASN targeting, DataImpulse adds a fee on standard residential that it doesn't publish; ours is included. No. As of October 2026 new users start with a paid $5 Intro plan (5 GB of residential traffic). SerpProxies gives free residential traffic with no card required. No — DataImpulse says purchased traffic never expires. SerpProxies balances don't expire either, so neither provider makes you use it or lose it. Only on a first-time Intro plan purchase, within 7 days, and not for crypto payments, according to its terms of service. SerpProxies refunds on request under its satisfaction guarantee. Not on its own site: its product range is residential, premium residential, datacenter and mobile. SerpProxies sells static ISP, IPv6 residential and IPv6 datacenter proxies alongside residential and mobile. Create an account, claim the free trial and swap the gateway host, port and credentials in your tool. Country, city and session settings go in the username string the same way, so most scrapers and bots need no code changes.
