Quick answer
What are the best US proxies for price monitoring?
The best US proxies for price monitoring are rotating residential IPs with ZIP targeting. US retailers show delivery dates, stock and some prices by ZIP code. FiftyStateProxy sells them at $0.75/GB on every tier from 5 to 100 GB, with state, city, ZIP and ASN targeting included, as of October 2026. No KYC — no ID, no selfie, no documents. Pay in crypto.
Price monitoring proxies at a glance
| Best proxy type | Rotating residential IPs; sticky sessions for flows that set a ZIP code or store first |
|---|---|
| Targeting | Country and city targeting on every plan; in the United States also state and ZIP code; ASN targeting at no extra cost. City availability varies |
| Rotation | Each new connection gets an IP from the pool, usually a different one; to get a new IP on every request, send one request per connection (turn off keep-alive) |
| Sticky sessions | up to 30 minutes, set per session with the ttl parameter; the IP can change earlier |
| Price per GB | $0.75/GB from 5 to 100 GB · $0.56/GB at 500 GB · $0.52/GB at 1 TB |
| Traffic counting | Usage counts all data sent and received through the proxy (upload and download, headers included). 1 GB = 1,000,000,000 bytes. Connection attempts that fail before reaching the target are not counted |
| Traffic expiry | Prepaid residential and rotating-mobile traffic never expires: unused GB stay on your account until you use them |
| Logins | Username and password on every plan, or an IP allowlist (up to 10 IPs). Sub-users with their own credentials and traffic cap. API keys you can revoke at any time |
| KYC and payment | No KYC — no ID, no selfie, no documents. Crypto only: BTC, USDT, USDC, ETH, SOL, LTC |

Why do US price checks need a ZIP-targeted IP?
US price checks need a ZIP-targeted IP because large retailers tie delivery dates, stock and some prices to a delivery ZIP or a nearby store. Amazon shows a "Deliver to" location, and Walmart ties its pages to a chosen store. Without a saved location, the site guesses one from the visitor's IP.
A price-monitoring proxy is a residential IP in the shopper's ZIP code, so the page you save matches the page a local shopper gets.
- Store prices: big-box and grocery chains price by store, so 43215 (downtown Columbus) and 80205 (Five Points, Denver) can show different shelf prices.
- Delivery promises: one product can show next-day delivery in Dallas and a later date in El Paso.
- Stock: a pickup item can be in stock in one ZIP code and sold out two ZIP codes away.
Which proxy setup fits each price-monitoring job?
Rotate the IP for independent product pages, and hold a sticky session when a page flow sets a ZIP code or a store first. Add an ASN filter when runs must be compared on one home ISP.
| Job | Session | Targeting | Username part |
|---|---|---|---|
| Sweep of thousands of product pages | Rotating: one request per connection | Country or state | -country-us-state-oh |
| Price and delivery date for one ZIP code | Sticky, one session per ZIP | ZIP code | -zip-43215-session-cmh1-ttl-10 |
| Store-level stock after choosing a store | Sticky for the whole flow | City or ZIP code | -state-co-city-denver-session-den4-ttl-15 |
| Runs compared on one home ISP | Rotating or sticky | ASN | -asn-7018 (AT&T) |

How do I set up a ZIP-level price check?
Set it up in four steps; how do I set up a US proxy covers each one with curl and Python.
- Create one sub-user per retailer or client, so traffic totals stay apart.
- For catalogue sweeps, disable keep-alive: every request then travels on a fresh connection, which usually means a fresh IP.
- For ZIP checks, keep one sticky session per ZIP, such as
USERNAME-country-us-state-tx-city-dallas-zip-75226-session-dal3-ttl-10. - Point your crawler at
gw.fiftystateproxy.com:7777, or port 7778 for SOCKS5, at a fixed, low request rate.
Do I need mobile proxies for price monitoring?
No, most price monitoring runs on residential IPs, because prices follow the shopper's ZIP code rather than the carrier. FiftyStateProxy's rotating mobile traffic starts at $1.50/GB, twice the $0.75/GB residential rate, and its targeting is set at country level. Use a mobile IP only to compare an app or mobile-site price with the desktop one.

Price monitoring proxies: FAQ
Which proxies should I use to monitor Amazon and Walmart prices by ZIP code?
Use rotating US residential proxies with ZIP targeting, plus a sticky session when the page needs a delivery ZIP or a store first. FiftyStateProxy includes ZIP targeting on every plan from $1.50. Follow each retailer's terms and keep request rates low.
How much traffic does a price check use?
Traffic depends on page weight, images and scripts, so measure it before you size a plan. Run a sample of your real pages through the 1 GB plan and read the usage stats. FiftyStateProxy counts upload and download, headers included.
Do unused GB expire if I check prices once a week?
No. Prepaid residential and rotating-mobile traffic never expires: unused GB stay on your account until you use them. Weekly or monthly runs can draw on one plan for as long as it lasts.
Can I pay for price-monitoring proxies with USDT?
Yes. FiftyStateProxy accepts USDT on TRC-20 or ERC-20, plus BTC, USDC, ETH, SOL and LTC. The minimum top-up is $25, and no ID is needed.
Is it legal to monitor competitor prices?
Price tracking on public pages is a common business practice and generally lawful in the US. The method is what counts: respect site terms, robots.txt and rate limits. This is not legal advice.
