Cheap mobile proxies give you real 4G and 5G carrier IPs without an enterprise contract. You can buy them two ways: rotating mobile proxies, billed per GB from a shared pool, or dedicated mobile proxies, where one modem and SIM work only for you at a flat monthly price. We compared 12 providers on the numbers that set the bill: the price per GB at small and large volumes, the cheapest dedicated line per month, and what you give up at the bottom of the market.

Rotating mobile shows the price on each provider’s smallest plan, then the lowest per-GB rate it publishes at 1 TB or less. Prices are what each provider charges today: ProxyEmpire ($9 → $4 list) and Decodo currently show 50% off, and NodeMaven 20% off. Rayobyte’s rates need a $250 monthly plan. Dedicated mobile is the price of one line for one month; Proxy-Seller’s range runs from its cheapest to its most expensive country and carrier, and IPRoyal’s $117 rate needs a 90-day term. — means none is listed. Oxylabs ($7.50 → $3.50/GB) and Infatica ($8.00 → $4.00/GB) sell mobile proxies too, but start well above this price range, so they are not ranked here. All prices were read from the providers’ own pages on 28–29 September 2026.
How we compared cheap mobile proxy prices
The cheapest plan that still does the jobA low sticker price means little if the plan needs a $250 minimum, the data expires after 30 days or the only carrier is in one country. So we priced every provider at small and large volumes, then checked what each plan actually includes.

- Carrier, city, ZIP, ASN and OS fingerprint targeting at no extra charge, with sticky sessions and 24/7 support from real people
- Dedicated lines with unlimited bandwidth under carrier fair use: a multi-country package (US, UK, Austria, Israel) or USA 5G on Verizon with on-demand IP resets

- Credits expire after 60 days, and small buyers pay $5/GB

Bulk US mobile scrapingRayobyte has the lowest per-GB mobile rate we found: $250 a month buys 200 GB ($1.25/GB) and $1,000 buys 909 GB ($1.10/GB). The catch is scope: it mainly carries US 3G and 4G IPs, and gives a new IP on every connection.
- Very low cost per GB for large scraping jobs

How much do cheap mobile proxies cost per month?
A worked example at three volumesThe cheapest provider changes with your volume. Here is what a month of rotating mobile traffic costs at each provider’s published rates, before VAT:
| Provider | 5 GB | 100 GB | 1 TB |
|---|---|---|---|
| ProxyEmpire | $22.50 | $325 (110 GB plan) | $2,000 |
| DataImpulse | $10 | $200 | $1,600 |
| SOAX | $25 | $300 | $1,500 |
| Decodo | $20 | $275 | Custom quote |
| Rayobyte | $250 minimum | $250 | $1,000 for 909 GB |
At 5 GB, a flat pay-as-you-go rate wins and Rayobyte’s minimum makes it the most expensive. At 1 TB, the bulk plans win. ProxyEmpire sits in the middle on price, but its bandwidth rolls over, so a 110 GB plan bought for a 100 GB month is not wasted.
When is a dedicated mobile proxy cheaper?
The break-even is lower than you thinkA dedicated line costs the same whether you push 1 GB or 500 GB through it. That makes it cheaper as soon as one IP carries steady traffic. A $54 line at Proxy-Seller equals 27 GB at DataImpulse’s $2/GB, and ProxyEmpire’s $125 dedicated mobile proxy equals about 42 GB at its $2.96/GB tier. Above those volumes, the line wins.
Rotating mobile stays cheaper when you need many IPs across many locations, or only a few gigabytes a month. For a broader look at carriers, 4G and 5G networks, see our guide to the best 4G and 5G mobile proxies.
What you give up with the cheapest mobile proxies
Read the plan before the price- Countries and carriers. The lowest per-GB rate here is mainly US 3G and 4G, and the cheapest dedicated lines cover a short list of countries, usually one or two carriers each.
- Speed caps. Budget dedicated lines often cap speed, for example at 5–30 Mbit/s, which slows heavy scraping.
- Sharing. Some monthly “ports” rotate through a shared pool. If the offer does not say the modem is yours alone, assume it is not.
- Expiring data. Credits that expire after 30 or 60 days can cost more than a higher rate that rolls over.
- Minimums and extras. A low rate behind a $250 plan, or city targeting sold as an add-on, changes the real price.
Why skip free mobile proxies?
Real SIM data is never freeEvery mobile proxy runs on a paid SIM, so a “free mobile proxy” is usually a datacenter server with a mobile label or a device used without its owner’s consent. We don’t publish free lists for that reason. If you only need to test, a $1.97 trial, SOAX’s $1.99 trial or DataImpulse’s $5 starter lets you check real carrier IPs first. Whatever you use, the target site’s terms and local laws still apply.
