Unlimited residential
Port and bandwidth editions sold by port count or account-wide aggregate bandwidth and validity period, with no per-GB deduction.
Unlimited residential is sold in port and bandwidth editions. Both use fixed validity periods with no per-gigabyte deduction. Choose ports when you need several independent access endpoints; choose bandwidth when many requests should share one account-wide throughput ceiling.
Billing and plans
- Port edition: port count × validity period; each endpoint is capped at 6 Mbps aggregate upload and download and 20 live connections
- Bandwidth edition: account-wide aggregate bandwidth × validity period; current tiers are 100 / 200 / 300 / 400 / 500 Mbps
- Validity periods: ports offer 3 / 7 / 30 days; bandwidth offers 3 hours and 1 / 7 / 30 days
- Shared rule: neither edition consumes the rotating-residential traffic pool; live catalog price and inventory are authoritative
What you receive
A successful order returns a full set of access details:
| Field | Meaning |
|---|---|
host | Access hostname |
httpPort | Port for HTTP |
socksPort | Port for SOCKS5 |
username / password | Credentials |
stickyKey | Session identifier |
HTTP and SOCKS5 are two different ports here, unlike the dynamic residential gateway where both share 58971. Don't mix them up.
Using it
# HTTP
curl -x http://UNLIMITED_USER:UNLIMITED_PASS@UNLIMITED_HOST:HTTP_PORT \
https://api.ipify.org
# SOCKS5
curl -x socks5h://UNLIMITED_USER:UNLIMITED_PASS@UNLIMITED_HOST:SOCKS_PORT \
https://api.ipify.org
Where it fits
Good fit
- Large files, images, dataset downloads
- Video streaming and live pulls
- Anything with high volume but modest request counts
Poor fit
- Fine-grained geo targeting — there are no country or city parameters at checkout; use dynamic residential
- A fixed IP — use static residential or datacenter
- Small, occasional workloads — buying by the day loses to buying by the gigabyte
Doing the cost maths
A crude but useful test: estimate the gigabytes your workload will move within the plan's validity period, and multiply by the dynamic residential per-gigabyte price for comparison.
| Estimated monthly volume | Better choice |
|---|---|
| Tens of gigabytes | Dynamic residential, per gigabyte |
| Hundreds of gigabytes to terabytes, multiple independent endpoints | Unlimited residential, port edition |
| Hundreds of gigabytes to terabytes, higher shared throughput | Unlimited residential, bandwidth edition |
| High volume but needs a fixed IP | Static residential / datacenter, per IP-lease |
