Comparison questions

Is Databay always cheaper than Oxylabs?

No single rate answers every job. Compare the billed allowance, expiry, renewal and targeting you need. The tables retain each provider’s billing model and do not rank unlike plans as equivalent.

Can I keep my HTTP or SOCKS5 client?

Yes. Change the endpoint to gw.databay.co:8888 and use the Databay username and password generated for your chosen network. Keep a separate configuration for each provider during the switch.

Can I try Databay before buying?

Try 1 GB of Residential Flex free for 7 days. We ask for a card, but you pay nothing during the trial. On day 7 we charge $13.75 for 25 GB of Residential Flex, or 10% less if you qualify for the first top-up discount. After that, we add another 25 GB for $13.75 each time your balance falls below 2.5 GB, up to 3 times a month, counting the day-7 charge. Data you don't use expires after 31 days, and that also triggers a top-up. Prices exclude VAT where it applies. To pay nothing, turn off automatic top-ups in Subscriptions before day 7; you can turn them off at any time.
