Mobile Proxy FAQ

This FAQ answers the most common questions about Proxy4G — no-KYC 4G/LTE/5G mobile proxies on real devices with physical SIM cards across 18 countries and 43 carriers, paid in crypto and delivered within minutes.

Proxy4G sells mobile proxies that route your traffic through real smartphones holding physical SIM cards on commercial carriers such as AT&T, Verizon, Free Mobile, EE and Jio. Because the exit IP is a genuine carrier address shared behind CGNAT, every connection carries a 100% trust score. We stock 18 countries and 43 carriers, accept crypto only, and require no government ID, name, phone or email verification.

How is this FAQ organised?

The questions below are grouped loosely by theme: what a mobile proxy is and how it differs from datacenter or residential IPs; the no-KYC signup and crypto-only payment model; how Dedicated and Shared plans differ; rotation, protocols and authentication; delivery speed; our country and carrier inventory; refunds and legality; and how autonomous AI agents can buy on their own.

Most answers link to a deeper page. For full per-country pricing see the pricing page; for the live catalogue of countries and carriers see locations; and to spin up a plan now use the configurator. If your question concerns a specific concept, the glossary defines terms like CGNAT, SOCKS5 and IP rotation in plain language.

Which plan should I pick — Dedicated or Shared?

Choose Dedicated when you need an exclusive port that no one else uses and full control over rotation: you can rotate the IP on demand — instantly via the dashboard or a reset link — or set automatic rotation on any interval from 1 to 60 minutes. Dedicated plans start at $27/mo and scale up to roughly $1,102/mo for premium, long-duration configurations.

Choose Shared when budget matters most. It is the same real carrier IP infrastructure with the same 100% trust score, but the IP auto-rotates every 5 minutes on a fixed schedule and the port is shared. Shared starts at $10.80/mo and runs up to about $440.80. Both plans support HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5 and come in 1, 3, 6 and 12-month terms — longer terms lower the effective monthly rate. See rotating vs dedicated for a deeper breakdown.

Frequently Asked Questions

What exactly is a mobile proxy?

A mobile proxy routes your traffic through a real smartphone holding a physical SIM card on a commercial carrier, so your exit IP is a genuine mobile address handed out by that carrier. Because carriers place thousands of subscribers behind CGNAT, the IP looks like ordinary phone traffic and earns a 100% trust score. See what is a mobile proxy.

How are mobile proxies different from residential or datacenter proxies?

Datacenter IPs come from hosting providers and are easy to flag. Residential IPs come from home broadband. Mobile proxies use carrier-assigned 4G/LTE/5G IPs that are shared by many real subscribers behind CGNAT, which makes them the hardest to distinguish from legitimate phone users. Proxy4G uses only real devices with physical SIMs — never emulated. Compare them at mobile vs residential vs datacenter.

Do I need to provide ID, a phone number or an email to sign up?

No. Proxy4G is fully no-KYC: no government ID, no name or address, no phone number, no email verification and no card or bank data. Your account is created automatically the first time you place an order. We also do not log your destination traffic, so we don't record where your proxies connect.

How do I pay, and do you accept cards or PayPal?

Payment is cryptocurrency only — Bitcoin (BTC), Ethereum (ETH), Solana (SOL) and USDT — plus an optional wallet balance you can top up and spend later. We do not accept credit cards or PayPal. This keeps signup anonymous and instant. Step-by-step: how to pay for proxies with crypto and buy proxy with crypto.

How fast do I receive my proxy after paying?

Within minutes of your crypto payment confirming, your credentials — host, port, username and password — are emailed to you. There is no manual approval or KYC review to wait on. You can then connect immediately over HTTP, HTTPS or SOCKS5, or set IP-whitelist authentication instead of a password.

What is the difference between Dedicated and Shared plans?

Dedicated gives you an exclusive port and lets you rotate the IP on demand — instantly via dashboard or reset link — or automatically every 1 to 60 minutes, from $27/mo. Shared is the budget option on a shared port where the IP auto-rotates every 5 minutes, from $10.80/mo. Both use real carrier IPs with a 100% trust score. More: rotating vs dedicated proxies.

How does IP rotation work?

On Shared plans the carrier IP rotates automatically every 5 minutes. On Dedicated plans you control rotation: trigger a fresh IP instantly through the dashboard or a reset link whenever you want, or schedule automatic rotation on any interval between 1 and 60 minutes. Every rotated IP is another genuine mobile carrier address. See rotating mobile proxies.

Which protocols and authentication methods are supported?

All plans support HTTP, HTTPS and SOCKS5. You authenticate either with a username and password or by whitelisting your IP address. Credentials arrive by email after payment. For the trade-offs between protocols, read SOCKS5 vs HTTP proxy; SOCKS background is on Wikipedia.

Which countries and carriers do you offer?

We stock 18 countries and 43 carriers, including the United States (AT&T, T-Mobile, Verizon, T-Mobile 5G), United Kingdom (Three, EE, Three 5G), France (Free Mobile, SFR, Orange, Bouygues), Germany (O2, Vodafone 5G), Spain (Movistar, Orange, DIGI) and India (Vodafone, Jio 5G). The full list spans the US, UK, France, Germany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Czech Republic, Poland, Romania, India, Lithuania, Thailand, Brazil, Bangladesh, Turkey, Latvia and Austria.

Do you offer 5G mobile proxies?

Yes, on select carriers and countries — for example T-Mobile 5G in the US, Three 5G in the UK, SFR 5G in France, Vodafone 5G in Germany, and Orange 5G / Movistar 5G in Spain. 5G availability depends on carrier coverage. Learn the practical differences at 4G vs 5G proxy; background on 4G and 5G.

How much do plans cost?

Dedicated starts at $27/mo and reaches roughly $1,102/mo for premium, long-duration configurations. Shared starts at $10.80/mo and reaches about $440.80. Terms of 1, 3, 6 and 12 months are available, and longer terms lower the effective monthly rate. Country choice also affects price. See the full per-country breakdown on the pricing page.

Are mobile proxies legal?

Using a proxy is legal in most jurisdictions; what matters is what you do through it. You are responsible for complying with the terms of the sites you access and with applicable law. Proxy4G does not log your destination traffic. For a fuller treatment of the topic, read are mobile proxies legal.

What is your refund policy?

Because plans are provisioned on real devices and credentials are delivered within minutes, we recommend ordering the shortest 1-month term first to test fit, then upgrading to a longer, lower-rate term once you've confirmed the country and carrier work for your use case. Test your proxy immediately on delivery using the guide at how to test a mobile proxy so any issue is caught right away.

Can an autonomous AI agent buy a proxy without a human?

Yes. Agents use our agentic API over the x402 protocol (scheme "exact", USDC on Base). POST to /agent-api.php?action=account to get a Bearer token, then POST /agent-api.php?action=topup with header X-Payment-Mode: x402 to receive an HTTP 402 with an accepts block, sign the EIP-3009 USDC authorization, and re-send with the X-PAYMENT header. Discovery files live at /.well-known/agent.json, /openapi.json and /llms.txt. See AI agents & automation and MCP.

What can I use Proxy4G for?

Common use cases include social-media multi-accounting, web scraping, account creation, ad verification, SERP rank tracking and AI agent automation. The high trust score of real carrier IPs makes mobile proxies especially effective where datacenter IPs get blocked.

Who operates Proxy4G?

Proxy4G is operated by NetShield Infrastructure Ltd, 71-75 Shelton Street, Covent Garden, London WC2H 9JQ, United Kingdom (company no. 15482937). More detail is on the about page.
