How It Works

How Billing Works

IPLoop uses a simple pay-as-you-go pricing model with three tiers. You pay for bandwidth (GB) consumed through the proxy network — no monthly commitment, no seat fees.

Start small, scale as you go. Pick any package — GB is cumulative and never expires.

Pricing Tiers

  • Starter — $1.50 / GB, 14 GB for $20. Entry-level plan for startups and SMEs.
  • Advanced — $1.00 / GB, 80 GB for $80. Higher traffic limits at competitive rates.
  • Professional — $0.75 / GB, 333 GB for $250. Most popular — for customers scaling up.
  • Business — $0.50 / GB, 2 TB (2,000 GB) for $1,000. Enhanced operations for mission-critical workloads.
  • Enterprise — Custom pricing. Dedicated IPs, SLAs, priority routing. Contact us.

Every plan includes the same features: residential proxies, 195+ countries, unlimited concurrent sessions, API access, Python/Node.js SDK, and ProxyClaw AI skill. Only the price-per-GB changes based on volume.

How to Purchase

  1. Open Billing in the sidebar.
  2. Click the plan card that matches your need (Starter, Advanced, Professional, or Business).
  3. Click the Select button — you'll be redirected to PayPal.
  4. Complete the PayPal checkout. Your GB balance is credited instantly after payment confirmation.
  5. You can re-purchase at any time — GB is cumulative.

How Bandwidth is Counted

Every proxy request consumes bandwidth equal to the sum of downloaded + uploaded bytes. We count only traffic that actually routed through our network:

  • Failed requests (timeouts, bad upstream) that returned no data are not billed.
  • Successful requests are billed at exactly the byte count returned to your client.
  • Bandwidth deducts from your available GB balance in near real-time (updated every minute).

Checking Your Balance

Your current balance and usage are always visible on the Dashboard:

  • Available GB — remaining bandwidth in your account
  • Bandwidth Used — total consumed all-time
  • Bandwidth Today — consumed in the last 24 hours

Running Out of GB

When your GB balance reaches zero, proxy requests will be rejected with HTTP 402 Payment Required. Just purchase any plan to top up — new requests will resume immediately once the balance is credited.
