Dynamic IP Proxy Cost Calculator｜Pay Per View vs.

Can't figure out your agency bill? Keep This Cost Comparison Chart

Last week a friend doing e-commerce complained that the proxy IP cost suddenly increased three times last month, only to find out later that it was the surge in business volume that led to overpayment by volume. As a global proxy IP service provider, ipipgo's technical team has organized this set ofDynamic IP Costing Mindset, to help you avoid becoming a wrongdoer.

What's the difference between pay-per-measure vs. monthly?

Let's take a look at a real case: a live broadcast monitoring project consumes 30GB of traffic on average per day

Pay attention to the pitfall of overage charge: when the actual usage exceeds the included traffic of the package, the overage portion is billed at 1.2 RMB/GB. It is recommended to turn it on in the ipipgo consoleConsumption warning function, set the 80% usage reminder.

Three steps to figure out your best option

Step 1: Clarify business parameters
Take a notebook and write down the three numbers:
1. Average number of requests per day (less than 5,000 for the basic version)
2. Peak concurrency (more than 50 threads to choose Enterprise Edition)
3. Frequency of IP switching (dynamic residential IP recommended for frequent switching)

Step 2: Probationary observation
Get it on the ipipgo websiteFree Trial Package, focused monitoring:
- Flow fluctuation curves in the morning, midday and evening of each day
- Frequency of IP switching during peak hours
- Connection success rates in different regions

Step 3: Formula calculation
Best Cost = (Base Package Fee × 12) + (Average Annual Excess Volume × Excess Unit Price)
For example, an annual average of 201 TP3T is exceeded, and a package year saves about 281 TP3T compared to a single month on a volume basis

These hidden costs to watch out for

When we helped a data company optimize their costs last year, we found that they were spending an extra 371 TP3T of wasted money on:

1. IP switching loss - Consumes 0.2-0.5 seconds per switching session
2. Cost of Failure Retry - Failed requests are also billed
3. geographic premium - European and American IP is more expensive than Asian 20%

Recommended for ipipgoIntelligent Routing Function, automatically selects the most cost-effective node. It is measured to reduce the invalid traffic consumption of 17%.

Must-see money-saving tips for business users

Projects that average millions of requests per day are configured this way:
- 80% traffic going to static IP package (fixed cost)
- 20% Dynamic IP Response to Sudden Demand (pay-as-you-go)
- Enable automatic IP pool cleaning (reduce invalid IP consumption)

In conjunction with ipipgo'shybrid billing modelA cross-border e-commerce company successfully compressed its agency costs from a monthly average of $80,000 to $42,000, a cost reduction of 47%.
