When is EuroCity Proxies the better choice?
Choose EuroCity Proxies when you pay in crypto, when your city checks come in bursts, or when you prefer not to keep a subscription running. Prepaid residential and rotating-mobile traffic never expires: unused GB stay on your account until you use them.
Our price per GB was lower than Webshare's monthly rates at every volume in the table on 18 October 2026. Each European city we list has a page with its exact parameter, population source, home-broadband networks and data protection authority.

What changes when I switch from a subscription to prepaid GB?
With a subscription, unused GB usually reset at the end of the billing cycle, and the plan renews unless you cancel. With prepaid GB, you buy what you need and the balance waits for your next project.
At EuroCity Proxies you top up the price of the plan you choose ($25 minimum), and the plan is bought once the top-up is credited. Unused balance stays on your account and never expires. When a purchase costs less than the minimum top-up, the part added only to reach the minimum is refundable on request to support within 30 days of the payment, in USDT or USDC, as long as it has not been spent. The rest of the balance is not paid back, except where the law requires it. Nothing renews by itself.
