Renting, hosting or owning
Renting
A rented line from a provider like Coronium is the fastest start: no modems, no SIMs and no server. You pay every month and the provider controls the hardware.
Hosting with a node program
With Coronium Node you plug USB modems into an Ubuntu box and earn 58% of each rental, but only on modems that pass Coronium's checks and under its terms.
Owning with XProxy
Run your own modems and phones, rotate IPs your way and sell to your own customers. You carry the hardware and SIM costs and keep the control.
How to build a farm →Side-by-side comparison
Rental, node program and your own farm.
| Area | Coronium | XProxy |
|---|---|---|
| Model | Rented dedicated lines (one device and SIM per customer), or hosting modems on Coronium Node | Software for modems you own; you control the IPs and keep what you earn |
| Cost to start | From $97 a month per line; 24-hour tests from $7 | Free plan up to 5 modems; then a per-modem license plus your hardware and SIMs |
| Control | HTTP, SOCKS5 and OpenVPN; IP changes on demand through the API | Instant, timed or API-link rotation; HTTP, SOCKS5, OpenVPN, WireGuard and VLESS |
| Earning from modems | Node program: 58% of each rental, paid monthly in USDT or Bitcoin, for devices that pass Coronium's checks | Sell your own proxies with the Business plan features; no revenue share |
| Modems | Node sells Qualcomm UFI sticks today; Huawei E3372 is not yet qualified for sale | Many USB dongles including XH22, Huawei E3372 and ZTE, plus Android phones |
| Payment | Card or crypto | Cryptocurrency, through your account balance |
Questions before you choose
Is Coronium a software alternative to XProxy?
Not exactly. Coronium sells dedicated mobile proxy lines and runs a Node program for modem owners. XProxy is software for building and operating your own farm. The two meet when you choose between renting proxies and owning the modems.
What do I keep when I sell proxies from my own XProxy farm?
XProxy takes no share of what you charge your customers; you pay the software license, your SIM data plans and your hardware. The Business plan adds shared ports, proxy groups and a selling platform with payouts.
Can I use the same modems for XProxy and Coronium Node?
Use separate hardware. Coronium asks node owners to leave devices that already serve customers elsewhere on their current software, and the same logic applies the other way round.
Which should I pick?
Rent from a provider such as Coronium if you need a few lines quickly and no hardware to manage. Build with XProxy if you want your own IPs, rotation control and the option to resell. Start with the free plan for up to 5 modems to see how it feels.
