Buying proxies for IXBrowser.
Two proxy providers, two use cases. IPRoyal for day-to-day shop running (cheap residential data). ProxySale for bulk listing sessions (unlimited static residential IPs).

Why you need proxies
Each IXBrowser profile needs its own proxy so the marketplace sees each shop as a separate user on a unique IP address. Without proxies, running multiple shops from one machine risks detection and suspension.
There are two scenarios with different proxy needs:
| Scenario | Data usage | Best provider |
|---|---|---|
| Day-to-day shop running β checking orders, replying to messages, managing sales | Lowβmoderate | IPRoyal (residential, pay per GB) |
| Bulk listing β listing hundreds or thousands of items via Listing Bots | Very high (images + pages) | ProxySale (static residential, unlimited data) |
IPRoyal vs ProxySale β quick comparison
| Feature | IPRoyal | ProxySale |
|---|---|---|
| Type | Rotating residential proxy | Static residential proxy |
| Data | Pay per GB (from ~$2.63/GB with discounts) | Unlimited β pay per IP |
| Best for | Day-to-day shop management | Bulk listing sessions (thousands of items) |
| IP locations | 195+ countries | UK, Pakistan, and more |
| Pricing model | Subscription or Pay As You Go | $5/IP for 10 days |
| Why cheaper for its use case | Low data usage = low cost for daily shop tasks | Unlimited data = no surprise bills when listing uses hundreds of MBs |

ProxySale β static residential proxy for bulk listing
When you need to list thousands of items via MeshX Listing Bots, the data usage is enormous (every listing loads images, fills forms, navigates pages). A pay-per-GB proxy would cost a fortune. Instead, buy a static residential IP with unlimited data from ProxySale for just $5 for 10 days.

Step 3 β Choose location
