Also known as a Static Residential IP
A fixed IP registered to a residential ISP, billed flat per term. Sourced from Tier 1 carriers like AT&T, Verizon, Orange, NTT, and more.
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, ISP-registered 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.

An ISP IP (also known as a static residential IP) is registered to a residential broadband provider, not a hosting company, even though it is mostly hosted in a datacenter.
To the sites you connect to, it reads as an ordinary home connection, while staying fixed and stable for as long as you keep it.
We source from a deep pool of Tier 1 residential carriers worldwide, providing high-quality, clean ISP IPs.
An ISP IP combines some of the best features of Residential and Datacenter IPs. It keeps the same address for the whole term, built for logins and long sessions, and it carries an ISP-registered subnet that draws fewer blocks on platforms that screen for hosting ranges.
Give your accounts, storefronts, and profiles one address that stays consistent instead of resetting trust every time you log in.
Keep one fixed, residential-registered address behind a store, social profile, or payment account instead of resetting trust every time you log in.
Run multiple social or e-commerce accounts without shared-IP association bans. Each account gets its own consistent address.
Many AI platforms block datacenter ranges outright. An ISP IP reads as residential traffic, so your account stays accessible.
Access region-locked content and creator tools from an address that looks like a normal home connection.
Browse target sites or manage sensitive logins through an IP that is not tied to your real infrastructure, without inviting the extra scrutiny a hosting IP draws.
Every ISP IP works both ways at once. There is no separate product for "proxy" versus "VPN" — pick whichever fits the task in front of you.

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.
