Proxies
FloppyData
FloppyData offers residential, mobile, ISP, and datacenter proxies, plus a scraping API and cloud browser. The browser is free for proxy users, but its proxy traffic is billed separately; the scraper charges for successful scrapes. The Terms describe service as “as is” and “as available,” without a guarantee of uninterrupted operation.
This may suit buyers comparing proxy access with browser-based or API-driven data collection.

Four proxy types and two data tools
The following details come from FloppyData pages checked on 2026-10-31.
- Proxy types: residential, mobile, ISP, and datacenter (homepage, checked 2026-10-31).
- Scraper: API returning rendered HTML for public web pages (scraping page, checked 2026-10-31).
- Browser: Chrome running on the provider’s servers (cloud-browser page, checked 2026-10-31).
- Targeting: country, city, ASN, and IP type; the provider says its network covers more than 190 locations (homepage, checked 2026-10-31).
- Proxy features: IP persistence, session control, and HTTP(S)/SOCKS 5 (use-case page, checked 2026-10-31).
- Support: human support stated to be available 24/7 (about page, checked 2026-10-31).
Rendered HTML and server-side Chrome
The scraping API returns rendered HTML from public web pages, according to the provider. FloppyData presents it for analytics, business intelligence, machine learning, and data pipelines. The provider also says the scraper supports JavaScript rendering and real-browser page loading.
The cloud browser is described as Chrome running on FloppyData’s servers. Its stated use cases include web scraping, AI agents, and automation. FloppyData describes its cloud browser as a Chrome browser that runs on its servers.
The provider describes the scraper as rendering public pages like a real browser and handling CAPTCHAs and retries.
Per-GB traffic and monthly IP bundles
The provider lists rotating proxies at $1.00. The pricing page says static residential proxies start at $1.79 per IP per month, with monthly bundles of 20, 50, or 100 IPs.
For scraping, the provider lists a trial with 5 successful scrapes, a Basic plan at $9 with 10K successful scrapes, and an Advanced plan at $89 with 100K successful scrapes. Enterprise pricing is custom. The provider says charges apply only to successful scrapes.
The Terms state that prices are quoted and charged in United States dollars. They set top-ups between $1 and $10,000 per transaction. An unspent top-up may be refunded on request within 7 calendar days if stated conditions are met; product refund requests must be made within 3 calendar days and meet listed eligibility conditions.
Questions to settle on targeting and sessions
Before relying on targeting, ask how the provider defines pool composition and geographic coverage for each proxy type. Clarify whether country and city selection apply consistently across the products you intend to use.
For sessions, ask how rotation and persistence work in practice, including the duration of a session and the controls available.
Confirm which authentication methods proxy connections accept and how credentials are managed. Ask about traffic, concurrency, and request limits for both proxy products and cloud-browser sessions.
Finally, clarify trial eligibility and the full refund process, including which conditions apply to each product. These details matter when comparing usage-based charges with prepaid credit.
Requests use an API key and retry path
The API uses an `X-Api-Key` header for authentication, according to the provider. Its examples cover Curl, Python, NodeJS, PHP, Go, Java, and C#. The provider also offers official TypeScript and Python SDKs.
The scraping API supports country and city targeting across 207 countries, according to its documentation. For a request that fails, FloppyData says it retries through stronger pools up to 3 times, with one request billed.
Proxy documentation lists HTTP(S)/SOCKS 5, IP persistence, and session control. Buyers connecting through the API should distinguish those proxy features from the scraper’s request and retry behavior.
Refund windows and service access conditions
The Terms distinguish refunds for unspent top-ups from product refunds. They also describe Account Balance as prepaid USD credit for FloppyData products, not cash or cryptocurrency, except under limited refund rights.
Cryptocurrency top-ups cannot be refunded to any wallet or payment method, according to the Terms. The Terms also allow immediate suspension or termination, with or without notice, for suspected violations or risk. One person or entity may hold one account unless FloppyData agrees otherwise in writing; accounts may not be sold, transferred, or shared.
The provider’s Terms describe the service as “as is” and “as available,” without a guarantee of uninterrupted operation. Several service details still need direct confirmation; they are listed under What we could not confirm.
Proxy switching and saved browser sessions
FloppyData’s pages describe these features and support options.
- Rotating traffic can switch among residential, mobile, and datacenter proxies without extra cost, according to the provider.
- Cloud-browser users can save a session setup as a preset and reuse it.
- The cloud browser supports connections with Playwright and Puppeteer; the provider also lists Python support.
- Session configuration includes country and operating-system or device choices, according to the provider.
- The provider says pricing plans include human support, and it offers a Telegram chat and live calls with experts.
Compare proxy billing units before choosing
Compare whether traffic is billed by usage or by IP, then check how rotation and persistence work for your workflow. Also compare protocol support, targeting, usage limits, refund terms, and whether an API fits the way requests are made.
Scraping and browser workflows define fit
For large-scale price data collection, FloppyData recommends rotating residential proxies. The provider recommends mobile proxies for analyzing mobile-specific pricing and ISP options for consistent, long-term data access.
The provider lists brands, online retailers, analysts, marketers, traffic specialists, arbitrators, price aggregators, comparison services, research agencies, and consulting companies among users of its price-monitoring proxy. Buyers building an SDK-based scraping workflow can use the stated TypeScript and Python SDKs.
What we could not confirm
- Proxy pool composition and sourcing by proxy type
- Rotation controls, session duration, and persistence behavior
- Proxy authentication methods and credential-management options
- Traffic, concurrency, and request limits
- Proxy-product trial availability and terms
- Full refund eligibility conditions and request process
- Support response-time commitments and escalation process
- Independent verification of coverage, uptime, and security listings
Questions on traffic, retries, and bundles
How are failed scraper attempts billed?
FloppyData says failed scraper attempts are retried through stronger pools up to 3 times, with one request billed.
What targeting does the scraping API list?
The scraping API lists country and city targeting across 207 countries, according to the provider’s documentation. This describes the API’s stated targeting scope, distinct from the broader proxy-network targeting listed on the homepage.
Which static proxy bundles are offered?
The pricing page lists static residential and static datacenter plans as monthly bundles of 20, 50, or 100 IPs.
What does the cloud-browser demo include?
The cloud-browser page describes a demo session lasting 60 seconds without sign-up. The provider says demo sessions are time-limited, while full sessions are not.
Who may enter a contract with FloppyData?
The Terms say users must be at least 18 years old and legally able to enter a binding contract. This is the eligibility condition stated in the provider’s Terms; it does not replace checking the remaining account conditions.
Which cryptocurrency acceptance claim does the pricing page make?
The pricing page states that FloppyData accepts more than 70 cryptocurrencies. Separately, the Terms exclude cryptocurrency top-ups from refunds, so payment acceptance and refund eligibility are distinct conditions.
Proceed when traffic billing fits
Fits if the listed proxy types or data tools match the workflow, and separate proxy-traffic charges are acceptable.
Probably not if the browser must include its proxy traffic in one price.
Main risk… the Terms do not assure uninterrupted operation, while traffic remains billed separately from browser access.
