Why get static residential IPs, and not datacenter, residential, or mobile proxies? Well, you may have one or more good reasons. Your choice might be influenced by:
There are roughly three types of static residential proxies floating around. All of them are hosted in data centers and marked as residential, but the way you interact with them differs – and so does the price. Here they are:
In 2026, we ran an ISP proxy trial by testing the proxies of some of the greatest providers in the field. We focused on the real meat: dedicated static residential proxies. They offer greater control over IP reputation and are receiving increasing attention from providers.
We took 100 IPs from each of three locations: the US, the UK, and Hong Kong/Singapore. We then ran 10K requests a day for a week – or a total of 70K requests. We sorted the IP addresses into four quality tiers. They’re based on technical qualities that help a static residential proxy convincingly appear like an actual residential device:
Tier 1: an IP address geolocated where its ASN is, and was actually issued by a major consumer ISP from its own pool of IPs.
Tier 2: a properly geolocated IP that is linked (rather than issued by) a major consumer ISP, and is marked as residential in online databases OR a properly geolocated IP issued by a minor consumer ISP.
Tier 3: a properly geolocated IP issued by a major ISP that isn’t dealing in data centers or hosting OR a properly geolocated IP linked to (rather than issued by) a minor residential ISP and marked as residential on databases.
Tier 4: everything else.
Tier 1 proxies are ideal, sure, but they’re hard to source as the proxy provider would have to convince a major residential ISP to part with some of their own IPs. Tier 2 and 3 are easier to procure, and most websites wouldn’t run checks thorough enough for the difference to matter.
In the table below, we present the success rates and connection speeds of the US proxies. They are the most numerous and we also ran the most requests on them: 70K from Ashburn and 70K from San Jose, CA. We did that to test performance based on distance from datacenters that popular targets use.

Decodo sells dedicated static residential proxies as well as shared proxies with per-GB and per-IP pricing. Most of the dedicated American IPs fell into the Tier 1 range, making them very trustworthy. The proxies were contenders for top spots in both success rates and response time.
The purchase step is simple. For shared proxies, you can choose to buy as little as 1 GB or a single IP, though in the latter case, you’ll lose the unlimited traffic option. Pay-per-IP allows you to mix locations, set threads limits, and choose how to refresh your entire IP list: automatically or manually. As standard, you get 1,000 threads, five users, and 10 whitelisted IPs.
Honestly, the one real downside is that Decodo puts all its proxies behind a gateway, so getting to a specific shared IP will take some work.

Webshare covers the whole gamut of static residential proxies. And don’t be thrown for a loop: it calls semi-dedicated proxies private. They’re so private that only three users at a time will be using a single IP.
As for dedicated static residential proxies, Webshare was basically unbeaten in variety, with a large number of US ASNs and subnets. Most of that pool was tier 3 proxies, which is still pretty good. The real downside were the abysmal success rates and response speed.
If you pull the trigger, you’ll get to see Webshare’s famous customizability in play, starting fairly cheap and options like network priority increasing the price. Plus you start with three sub-users, and getting more is really cheap.

IPRoyal is selling you dedicated static residential proxies and nothing more. During our test, we found mostly Tier 3 proxies, but the proportion of Tier 1/2 was also good. In terms of performance, the success rate didn’t reach 99% – a rare occurrence – while the speed was merely low.
You can buy an IP for a day on the lowest end, which is neat. When it comes to geolocation, you can pick a city, and the interface will show you whether there are any proxies in that location left. The number is approximate (for example, “Less than 50 left”), but at least you can choose to get notified if any get freed up.
For an additional fee, you can choose to only get zero fraud score IPs. You may also pick IPs in a specific subnet or a specific ISP, or ones that have never been used on a specific platform.
Since those are custom requirements entered as notes rather than picked from a list, you’ll probably need to wait for IPRoyal to get back to you on the feasibility of your desires.

If you want dedicated static residential proxies, Byteful has you covered. This company offers 150K IPs spread over 18 countries on three continents. At the time of writing, just over 7,000 IPs were actually available. In our testing, the pool was split between Tier 1 and Tier 2 proxies. And the performance puts them in the middle of the pack.
When it comes to the service itself, you can expect the usual ISP treatment. There are no traffic or concurrency limitations, except where a fair use policy applies), and you can choose a mix of countries you like (as long as there are IPs available). What’s lacking? Well, for one, the geographical coverage could be better, and support isn’t available 24/7.

Oxylabs is huge in all proxy fields, and it wasn’t exactly small in the dedicated static residential proxy area. Aside from having the second-largest pool at the time of testing, it was in the top five for success rates and #1 on connection speed.
Purchasing Oxylabs’ dedicated proxies is simple. You’re getting at least five IPs, freely mixing locations as you go. You may also pick a specific ASN. In general, Oxylabs supports IP whitelisting and sub-user creation. And the bandwidth is only limited by the fair use policy.

True to its name, Proxy-Seller sells dedicated static residential proxies from over 20 countries across four continents. The US proxy response time was very low, but the success rate was better, even if still average in the context of the test. The quality mix was a near-even split between Tier 1 and Tier 3 proxies.
If you’re going by self-service, you can filter by country. City-level targeting is available on request. If you don’t particularly care about the country, ISP mix is the option that will sell upwards of 50 IPs in a combination of locations. For those of a less wild bent, you can pick your specific countries even with the smallest order. There’s also the 100% uptime option, which will automatically replace IPs that don’t work. Subscription periods range from one week to a whole year.

HypeProxies has not abandoned its sneaker-grabbing roots at all. As such, it’s selling US-only static residential proxies. They’re split between Dallas and Ashburn. While they didn’t take part in the 2026 dedicated static residential proxy testing, we did run them through the gauntlet in 2025. The result? Perfect success rate and amazing response. And the download speeds are good enough for 4K streaming.
Granted, it is still a limited service. There’s no city- or state-level targeting. Only one authentication method is supported, and your buy-in is at least 50 IPs for a month or a quarter. Still, there are no concurrency or traffic limits.

NodeMaven has established static residential proxies in nine locations worldwide. Our tests showed its US proxies to be 100% Tier 3 – not great for undetectability. Performance, on the other hand? Took second place in success rate and response speed both.
Alas, dedicated static residential is all you’re getting – no shared or rotating pools here. However, a free IP swap is included. Once you go in, you’re committing to at least three proxies for a month or quarter.

Rayobyte has a more serious commitment to serving the static residential proxy niche than some entrants on the list. It offers rotating, semi-dedicated, and dedicated proxies. We only have research results for the latter. Top 3 success rate, sure, but the response speed is middling.
The geographic coverage of the USA, UK, Canada, Germany, France and Italy won’t impress anyone, but those are still attractive locations for proxy users. There’s unlimited traffic (for the non-rotating plans), targets, and threads, and semi-dedicated IPs are only shared with up to two other users.
Monthly IP replacements come free of charge, which is good, since dedicated proxies are quite expensive.

Bright Data claims to have some of the largest static residential proxy networks around, and sells both dedicated and shared varieties. Of the claimed 1.3 million proxies, about 40K are assigned to the shared pool.
The shared Pay-Per-IP and dedicated varieties have a low barrier to entry for Bright Data, costing under $40/mo. For the rotating proxies, Pay-As-You-Go is available; otherwise, you’re looking at 71 GB for $499/mo. Pricey? Yes, but that’s Bright Data for you.

With dedicated or semi-dedicated static residential proxies, you can keep the same IP for as long as your subscription remains active.
No, those are two very different things. Sticky residential sessions are a feature that a service tries to keep the same residential device IP throughout your session. Static residential proxies are not hosted on residential devices; rather, they’re hosted on data centers, but registered as residential. This allows them to maintain the same IP without limits.
It depends on what you need. Dedicated static residential proxies are for tasks where you need to maintain not just a single IP, but also its reputation. Shared static residential proxies are better for tasks that don’t involve rigorous checks of the IP’s reputation.
Rotating static residential proxies are metered by bandwidth, so it’s not unlimited. Dedicated static residential proxies and pay-per-IP proxies usually offer unlimited traffic, with some fair use policy limits.
