A fixed, exclusive IP, priced flat per term, not by the data you use. Use the Surflare app for a one-click VPN experience, or integrate SOCKS5/HTTP proxy directly into your tools and scripts.
One flat price per IP for the whole term, not a bill that grows with the data you use. Every plan includes the same fixed IP, usable in the Surflare app and as a SOCKS5/HTTP proxy.
Unlimited traffic, subject to our fair-use policy: speed is reduced after the high-speed allowance is used up.
A datacenter IP comes from servers hosted in commercial datacenters, not a home internet connection. It sits between your tools and the sites you connect to, giving you a fast, stable exit address you never have to manage yourself.
Every Datacenter IP works both ways at once. There is no separate product for "proxy" versus "VPN" — pick whichever fits the task in front of you.

# SOCKS5 proxy
curl --proxy socks5://user:pass@us.dc.surflare.com:1080 \
https://api.ipify.org
# HTTP proxy
curl --proxy http://user:pass@us.dc.surflare.com:8080 \
https://api.ipify.org
# Python example
proxies = {"http": "socks5://user:pass@us.dc.surflare.com:1080"}
Free and shared proxies are slow and get blacklisted fast. One bad user burns the address for everyone else behind it.
Every Surflare Datacenter IP is exclusively yours: no shared abuse history, and the speed and address stay consistent whenever you need them.
Get a Datacenter IPRun your marketing, data collection, and engineering projects on a fast, affordable datacenter IP.
Give ERP, inventory, or order-sync systems one allowlisted IP instead of managing a rotating range.
Let a CI runner, admin panel, or internal tool trust one address instead of opening firewall rules to everyone.
High-throughput public data collection, from price monitoring to LLM training datasets, where speed and cost matter more than looking human.
Check SERP rankings and ad placements from a specific country. No login involved, so speed wins over trust.
Browse target sites, competitor pages, or unknown links through an IP that is not tied to your real infrastructure.

A datacenter IP is registered to a hosting provider, and sites can tell. If a task needs to look like a real residential visitor, pick Residential instead.
Two dimensions explain almost everything: how the IP is registered (what platforms see) and where it physically comes from (what determines speed and authenticity).
| Datacenter IP | Static ISP IP (also known as static residential IP) | Residential IP | |
|---|---|---|---|
| IP registration (whois / ASN) | Hosting / datacenter | Business or residential broadband ISP | Residential broadband ISP |
| Physical source | Datacenter servers | Registered as residential, mostly hosted in datacenters | 100% real home broadband users |
| Platform trust | Lowest. Hosting ranges are easily flagged | High and stable. Residential registration, exclusively yours, no shared abuse risk | High. Real home IPs, per-IP reputation depends on pool quality |
| CAPTCHA rate | High. Social and e-commerce sites challenge often | Low | Lowest. You look like a regular home user |
| Speed | Fastest, datacenter bandwidth | Fast, datacenter-grade stability | Slower, limited by home broadband |
| Does the IP change? | Fixed | Fixed | Configurable: per request, timed, or sticky session |
| Billing | Monthly, per IP | Monthly, per IP | By traffic (per GB) |
| Cost | Lowest | Medium | Highest |
| Best for | API integrations, automation, fixed-IP allowlisting | Account nurturing, stores, payments, AI tools | Account creation, scraping, ad verification |
| Surflare product | Datacenter IP | Static ISP IP | Coming soon |
The pattern is simple. More authentic means more expensive and slower. Datacenter is the fast and cheap end, residential is the most authentic end, and ISP is the balance point between them.
One click in the app, or a single line in your scripts. Same IP, either way.
