Illusory Residential Proxies route your traffic through real residential IP addresses sourced from a global pool spanning 195+ countries. Unlike a dedicated mobile proxy (one device, one IP that you rent by time), residential proxies are a shared pool: you connect to a single endpoint, target the location you want, and pay only for the bandwidth you use.
Residential Proxies are currently in private beta. Reach out to get your credentials and an allotment of GB to test.

How it works

One endpoint

Connect every request to a single host and port, with no per-device setup.

Target anywhere

Choose a country, state, city, or network right in your proxy username.

Rotating or sticky

Get a fresh IP per request, or keep the same IP for a session.

Pay per GB

Usage is metered by the gigabyte. No device rental, no expiry.

Protocols

Residential proxies support both HTTP/HTTPS and SOCKS5 on the same port. The protocol is auto-detected, so any tool that speaks either will work (browsers, curl, scrapers, and most automation frameworks).
