Looking for an IPRoyal Alternative?

While IPRoyal offers dedicated mobile proxy rentals starting at $117/month, XProxy provides an alternative that lets you build and own your private 4G/5G mobile proxy farm.

XProxy vs IPRoyal Comparison
💰

Cost-Effective Scaling

IPRoyal Dedicated Mobile plans cost $117/month per port. XProxy, combined with a flat annual software license and your own mobile carrier SIM cards, offers a more predictable cost structure for teams running multiple proxy connections.

🔐

Data Privacy & Local Routing

With hosted proxy rentals, traffic is routed through third-party servers. XProxy is self-hosted, meaning your data stays entirely on your own local hardware, ensuring privacy for your business logic.

💬

SMS Reception & Account Verification

Standard cloud proxy endpoints typically do not allow receiving SMS verification codes. XProxy connects directly to your physical USB modems, letting you view, receive, and manage SMS messages directly from the dashboard.

🔄

All-in-One Feature Set

Instead of differing plans for rotating and dedicated proxies, XProxy includes all features under a flat-rate license: dedicated channels, instant API-driven rotation, p0f OS spoofing, multiple protocols, and SMS reception.

Frequently Asked Questions

Everything you need to know about switching from IPRoyal rented mobile proxies to XProxy private mobile proxy farms.

Is XProxy really cheaper than IPRoyal dedicated mobile proxies? +

Yes, significantly. For 5 dedicated proxy lines, you pay IPRoyal $7,020/year. Building a 5-port private proxy farm with XProxy—including all USB modems, server hardware, and unlimited data SIM cards—costs just $2,352 in the first year and $1,949/year subsequently, saving you thousands of dollars.

Do I need technical skills to build my own farm with XProxy? +

No. XProxy is designed for plug-and-play setup. You can install our software onto any standard Linux mini PC or server with a single command, plug in your USB modems with SIM cards, and you are ready. Our team also offers pre-built hardware kits and 24/7 technical setup support.

Can I rotate IPs just like IPRoyal? +

Yes, and you have complete control over it. You can configure XProxy to rotate IPs automatically on a custom timer (e.g. every 5 minutes), manually from the dashboard, or programmatically via a unique rotation API URL for each port. The physical modem reconnects, forcing the carrier to assign a brand new IP address.
