General proxy information
Basic questions that usually come up before purchase.
A proxy is an intermediate server between you and a website. When you connect through a proxy, the site sees the proxy IP address instead of your main IP. This is useful for parsing, automation, testing, working with multiple accounts, and traffic distribution.
IPv4 is the most universal option. Almost all websites, services, and apps support it. IPv6 is cheaper, but it is not suitable for every task because some sites still handle it inconsistently. For most practical workflows, IPv4 is the standard choice.
HTTP/HTTPS proxies are more often used in browsers, scrapers, and common web tasks. SOCKS5 is more universal, supports a wider range of software, and is not limited to web traffic. In practice, SOCKS5 is considered more flexible, while HTTP is more familiar. Our proxies are available in both formats.
These are proxies from open sources that are used by many people at the same time. They usually have low speed, weak stability, a short lifespan, and a high risk of bans. For real work tasks, such proxies are almost always worse than paid ones.
These are proxies used by several customers. They are cheaper and suitable for less sensitive high-volume tasks, but they are less stable and less predictable than private proxies.
These are proxies that only you use during the rental period. Such addresses offer higher stability, lower restriction risk, and better predictability for accounts, ads, analytics, scraping, and automation.
Usage and tasks
What tasks proxies fit and how to choose them properly.
Our proxies are intended only for legal and white-hat tasks: data scraping, process automation, service testing, account work, advertising, analytics, search result checks, and other lawful scenarios. We do not support illegal use of proxies. The user is solely responsible for how the service is used.
Yes. They are suitable for legal automation, testing, account work, advertising, analytics, and other normal business workflows where stability, traffic distribution, and separate IP addresses matter.
Usually not. Shared proxies are a more economical option for simple and high-volume scenarios. For stable and predictable work, private proxies are almost always the better choice.
For such tasks, private proxies are usually the only sensible choice. Shared options are noticeably worse for sensitive services. At the same time, access to a specific website depends not only on the proxy, but also on the internal anti-fraud systems of the service itself.
Yes. Thanks to HTTP and SOCKS5 support, proxies can be used in browsers, scrapers, antidetect browsers, bots, server tools, and other compatible software.
Yes. Basic instructions and connection schemes should be available in the dashboard. If your task is unusual, it is better to contact support directly.
About ProxyEnergy
How rental, delivery, and order management work.
We focus on practical results: automatic delivery right after payment, private and shared IPv4 proxies, HTTP/SOCKS5 support, a clear dashboard, API access, order renewal, IP replacement, and 24/7 support.
Immediately after successful payment. Access is issued automatically: order data appears in the dashboard and can also be sent by email.
Our proxies are static. This means the purchased IP does not change during the rental period. If needed, you can renew it and continue using the same address.
Yes, proxies can be renewed. This is useful if you need to keep the same addresses, settings, and stable working environment.
Yes. On renewal, you can manage the order flexibly: keep the addresses you need, remove unnecessary ones, and add new IPs if needed.
Yes, IP binding is available. You can also work in the standard ip:port format where required by your software or infrastructure.
Yes. Country selection is available during purchase. If you need a custom pool, rare geography, or a large volume, this can be discussed with support.
Payments, guarantees, and support
Practical questions about payments, replacements, and help.
The site supports modern payment methods, including bank cards and cryptocurrency. The exact list depends on the payment options connected at the time of checkout.
Yes, a warranty period is provided. If a proxy has a real technical issue, the matter is resolved through support: replacement or refund is possible according to the service rules.
Support works 24/7. If the issue concerns an order, payment, replacement, setup, or an unusual volume, the most convenient way is to contact us via ticket in the dashboard.
Yes. If you need corporate work, special conditions, or unusual volume, it is better to discuss it with support.
Need help choosing?
We will help you choose the right proxy type for your task
For simple and high-volume scenarios, shared proxies are often enough. For stable work, sensitive services, and serious automation, private addresses are usually the better choice. All solutions are intended for white-hat and legal tasks.
