SOAX prices by geography rather than by volume alone, and sells fine-grained targeting — country, region, city, carrier — as the core product. Residential and mobile draw on the same plan credits, which is unusual and useful.
Where SOAX sits in the verified market
Across the 12 providers whose residential pricing we have verified, SOAX’s entry rate of $5.00/GB ranks 10th cheapest, and its best published tier reaches $1.50/GB. That entry rate sits 43% above the verified market median of $3.50/GB. The cheapest flat residential rate in the dataset — a published tier with no volume or promotional condition attached — is $1.00/GB from DataImpulse; SOAX’s best tier is 1.5× that. Lower figures are advertised — ProxyEmpire markets rates from $0.75/GB — but those are starting or promotional rates whose conditions the provider does not publish, which is why we do not treat them as the floor.
Cheaper verified residential rates than SOAX’s best tier currently come from ProxyEmpire at $0.75/GB, Proxy-Cheap at $0.78/GB, DataImpulse at $1.00/GB. That is a price comparison, not a quality ranking — we publish no performance benchmarks yet, and say so rather than imply otherwise.

How the pricing is structured
Bandwidth is billed per gigabyte across 4 verified tiers, and the spread between the entry tier and the best published tier is 3.3× — volume commitment is the single biggest lever on what you actually pay. Products with verified pricing here: residential.
What to know before you buy
Its rate depends on which countries you are hitting. Tier 1 (US, UK, Australia, Japan) runs $1.50–$5.00/GB by plan; Tier 2 (India, Brazil, Mexico) runs $1.15–$4.00 on plans (from $0.55 at enterprise volume); Tier 3 goes as low as $0.35/GB at enterprise volume. No flat-rate provider can match that for emerging-market work.
Who it fits
SOAX makes sense if your targets are outside the expensive tier-one geographies, or precise geo and carrier targeting is central to the job.
Look elsewhere if you want one simple number. The plan-fee structure ($200/$500/$1,500 per month plus VAT, with included credits) means your effective per-gigabyte depends on how much of the allowance you actually use.
Is SOAX legit? What we can verify, and what we can’t
What we verified ourselves: its published pricing is real and current — we read every rate in the table above from its live pricing page on 2026-10-02; its terms pages and checkout are publicly reachable rather than gated behind sales contact.
What we have not verified: SOAX’s success rates, pool quality, support responsiveness, or refund behaviour in practice. Nobody publishes independently audited numbers for those — including the review sites that quote precise success percentages. Our benchmark panel is on the methodology roadmap; until it ships we say “unmeasured” rather than guess.
Checking SOAX’s reputation yourself: read its Trustpilot profile and recent Reddit threads (r/proxies and related subreddits) with the standard filters — discount review bursts around promotions, weight detailed complaints about billing and refunds over star averages, and look for how the company responds to problems rather than whether problems exist. Then run the cheapest possible test against your own targets before committing real budget; no third-party opinion substitutes for that.
The sourcing question: residential proxy networks route traffic through real devices, and how a provider obtains consent from those households is the industry’s biggest legitimacy variable. This stopped being theoretical in July 2026 when the FBI seized domains of NetNut, a major provider, in an action coordinated with Google, whose threat-intelligence team describes NetNut as a residential proxy network also known as Popa (Krebs on Security; parent company Alarum said it was cooperating with law enforcement and paused the affected network services, and we found no public announcement of charges as of 2 October 2026 — see our botnet & takedown timeline). Prefer providers that document their sourcing, and treat silence on the question as information.
What we have not verified
We have verified pricing for some but not all of this provider’s line-up; still unverified here: isp, mobile. Those rates appear once we have read them from the live page.
Trial length, refund window and payment methods are marked pending until we confirm them by signing up — we do not copy terms from other review sites.
We publish no success-rate or speed benchmark for any provider yet. The testing panel is on the methodology roadmap; until it exists, any site quoting precise success percentages for every provider is either running a real lab or making it up.
Price history
Baseline recorded 2026-08-07. Every subsequent change to SOAX’s published pricing is logged here and in the changelog with the date we caught it, which is the point of this site: the current price is easy to find, the trend is not.
FAQ
How much does SOAX cost?
Verified 2026-10-02: residential bandwidth from $5.00/GB at the entry tier down to $1.50/GB at its best published tier. Full tier detail, including any per-IP products, is in the table above with its source URL.
Is SOAX cheaper than other providers?
Its best published residential rate ($1.50/GB) is 1.5 times the cheapest verified rate in our dataset ($1.00/GB from DataImpulse). Cheaper is not automatically better: pool quality and success rates differ, and we do not yet publish benchmarks for either.
Does SOAX offer a free trial?
Trial and refund terms are marked pending on this profile until we confirm them by signing up. We do not copy trial claims from other review sites, because those are frequently out of date.
Is SOAX legit?
SOAX is an established commercial operation: we verified its published pricing against its live site on 2026-10-02, and it runs public terms and a partner programme. What no one has independently verified — here or elsewhere — is performance. Check its Trustpilot and recent Reddit threads for reputation, then test small against your own targets; that beats any review site’s verdict, including ours.
Who is the CEO of SOAX?
We don’t republish corporate details — where a company is based or headquartered, its CEO or founder, its valuation — unless verified from primary sources, and comparison-site bios rot fast. The company’s own site, national business registry or filings answer in five minutes and stay current; that beats any aggregator, including us.
