Choosing the right product line
| Line | Best for | Session |
|---|---|---|
| Residential | competitive pricing and stock tracking | Rotating or sticky |
| Static ISP | Persistent logins and storefronts | Fixed address |
| SOCKS5 / HTTP(S) | Browsers, bots, antidetect tools | Either |
| Datacenter | Throughput-heavy, low-sensitivity jobs | Fixed or rotating |
| Rotating ISP | Cleaner ASN signals than plain residential | Rotating |
| Mobile | Carrier-sensitive and app-first targets | Sticky |
What price monitoring actually demands
Three properties decide whether a price monitoring pipeline survives: the origin of the IP, how long a session can be held, and how precisely geography can be pinned. IPIDEA exposes all three as parameters rather than plan tiers.
- Origin — residential lines by default; static ISP when an identity must persist.
- Session — sticky sessions up to 30 minutes, or per-request rotation for throughput.
- Geography — country, city and ISP selection across 220+ regions.
- Concurrency — unlimited parallel connections on every plan.
Integration notes
HTTP / HTTPS / SOCKS5 share one credential set. Point Playwright, Scrapy, curl or an antidetect browser at the gateway and encode targeting in the username. Sub-accounts separate teams, whitelisting removes the password step for fixed servers, and the API issues endpoints programmatically for price monitoring jobs that scale up and down.
Frequently asked questions
Which IPIDEA plan suits price monitoring?
Most price monitoring teams start on residential traffic plans from $5, then add static ISP addresses for the parts of the workflow that must keep a fixed identity.
Can IPIDEA handle price monitoring at scale?
Yes — concurrency is unlimited on all plans and the pool spans 90M+ IPs across 220+ countries and regions, so parallel workers do not compete for the same addresses.
Do I need separate credentials per target?
Not necessarily. Targeting travels in the username, so one account can run many geographies and session types at once. Sub-accounts exist when you want separate billing or access control.
Is there a monthly minimum?
No. Plans start at $5, balances do not expire, and checkout is crypto-native with code IPD30 on a first order.
