Residential, mobile, and datacenter IPs
Astro describes residential IPs as coming from homeowners and public Wi-Fi addresses. It says datacenter proxies use addresses from VDS/VPS providers and legal entities. Its mobile proxy page describes IPs assigned by mobile carriers to real mobile devices.
The company calls its service a proxy ecosystem and says it gathers IPs with users’ consent and in a KYC-compliant way. Astro says the service supports customers’ web data scraping needs. Its about page also describes customers seeking these proxy types and partners sharing IP addresses for reward.
Rotation, targeting, and sticky sessions
Astro says mobile proxies can be targeted by country, city, region, or carrier. It lists HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 support for residential proxies, with automatic rotation by timer or on demand. Datacenter IPs can be rotated through an API, by timer, or on demand.
Astro describes automatic mobile IP rotation by timer, per request, or via API. It also offers sticky sessions to maintain the same IP for extended periods. Its mobile proxy page names country, city, and carrier targeting, and lists carriers including Verizon, AT&T, T-Mobile, Vodafone, and O2 across 100+ countries.
The provider says it monitors its network in real time using AI and ML technology to identify and prevent suspicious activities. Astro also says it vets companies and individuals through regular manual checks and automated AI audits.
Traffic fees and prepaid conditions
Astro’s homepage and product pages show conflicting starting rates; the pricing page separately lists port and traffic fees, checked 2026-10-30.

The pricing page says customers can choose prepaid traffic or pay-as-you-go, with a port fee and traffic fee based on proxy settings. It lists e-wallets, cryptocurrency, and bank cards as payment methods. Pay-as-you-go charges $0.1 when creating a proxy and then for every 10 MB used, according to the pricing page. The page says traffic packages starting at 10 GB receive discounts.
Astro’s FAQ sets the minimum traffic order at 100 MB and describes a free trial with $3 credited to the account. The trial lasts until its included proxy traffic is used up, according to the FAQ. For prepaid use, proxies remain active until traffic runs out or the one-month rental period ends, according to the pricing page.
Questions to settle before relying on proxies
Ask which proxy type suits the intended workflow.
Establish what configuration details the provider expects from the buyer, including the location and rotation choices needed for the task. Ask how those settings are supplied and whether they differ by proxy type.

Compare proxy models by operating terms
Compare proxy models by the type of IP source and the location targeting available for your workflow. In general, rotation methods, session options, and supported protocols affect how a proxy fits an application.
Compare billing basis and traffic limits alongside trial and refund terms. Ask what support covers and which setup details you must provide before selecting a service.
Fit depends on traffic and verification
Astro lists scraping, SEO, and data collection among its proxy use cases. Its stated options include residential, mobile, and datacenter proxies, with prepaid traffic and pay-as-you-go billing.
Fit also depends on verification: Astro says all proxy customers undergo verification and that use cases receive individual review. The provider says it checks mobile-proxy customers’ identity and assesses eligibility based on goals, risks, and intentions.

Questions about ports, billing, and refunds
How many connections can a port handle?
The FAQ says a proxy port handles up to 250 concurrent TCP connections. It also says each port has one user and is not shared. Buyers should distinguish the connection limit from the number of users assigned to a port.
Can a port use HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 at the same time?
No: Astro’s FAQ says its proxies support SOCKS5 and HTTP(S), but only one protocol can be used at a time. Check which protocol the intended application requires, then confirm that it suits the workflow before configuring a port.
How are pay-as-you-go port charges and inactive ports handled?
Astro’s pricing page charges $0.1 when creating a proxy and then for every 10 MB used. It also says a pay-as-you-go port with no traffic for over 45 days is archived automatically. The pricing page says an archived port is permanently deleted if not restored within 14 days.
When can a customer request a refund?
Astro’s refund policy allows requests within 14 days after account replenishment, subject to its eligibility criteria. Purchased ports have a separate condition: requests must be within 3 days of purchase, with traffic use no more than 1 GB. Approved refunds exclude payment-provider return fees and charges corresponding to system use.
When is support available, and how quickly does it respond?
The FAQ lists support daily from 10 AM to 2 AM GMT+4 through Telegram, Facebook, WhatsApp, email, and Live Chat. A comparison page instead says Telegram, WhatsApp, or live chat support responds in under 15 minutes. These are different descriptions; check the applicable channel and hours before relying on response timing.
Conditional fit for scraping and data collection
Fits if… the intended work matches Astro’s stated scraping, SEO, or data-collection uses and its proxy options.
Probably not if… IPv6, IMAP/POP3 access, or SMTP mailings are required.
Main risk… starting rates conflict across Astro’s pages, while port and traffic fees depend on proxy settings. Check the quoted rate and operating conditions before relying on the service.
