Been using this company for a couple of months now and it's so far the best one I've tried. The IPs are not banned and if you have any issue with them you can work with Customer Service to ensure your satisfaction. It happened to me where I needed to swap IPs and they were really helpful. In addition to decent IPs (they work great for me) the customer service is very reliable. The last CS rep that worked with me, Danica, was really patient and helped me with an error I was getting. I always learn stuff when I work with these guys. Five stars. Thanks.

FINALLY I got something that was not detected as vpn/proxy. Tried everything before this and finally when purchasing a static residential proxy from IPRoyal I got an IP that was not detected by all the vpn/proxy checker services. Very happy. Also I added custom instructions to the order that I wanted IP that was not detected, manager May could have (or not) influenced the result. I tried a dedicated IP from large VPN providers, and it was detected immediately.

Frequently asked questions
What are rotating proxies?
Rotating proxies are residential proxies that automatically change IP addresses. These settings can be customized by having them rotate upon every HTTP request, at set time intervals, or through other options. Sometimes they may be named as rotating residential proxies – these are identical products.
When do you need a rotating proxy?
A rotating proxy is best utilized when a permanent identity is not required and when block rates are high. Since you change IPs frequently, websites like social media networks can issue bans just for that reason. For regular websites, however, you want to rotate proxies frequently as that will minimize CAPTCHAs and access restrictions. As such, rotating residential proxies are best for use cases such as web scraping.
Static proxies are best whenever you need a permanent identity such as for social media management.
Are rotating proxies legal?
Yes, all proxies are legal by themselves. Legality depends on your use case instead of proxies themselves. Additionally, your use case will also be subject to various Terms of Service restrictions that can be in place on a website.
What is the difference between sticky and rotating IP addresses?
Sticky sessions maintain a single IP address for a set amount of time. Rotating IPs will change frequently, depending on your settings. You may also receive a rotating proxy list, which will outline every proxy server the pool will run through.
Do you offer rotating datacenter proxies?
No. IPRoyal does not offer datacenter proxies with automated rotation options.
