Step-by-step: how to buy a proxy on INSOCKS.COM
-
Open the site
Go to: https://insocks.com (This is the official INSOCKS web page, they also publish a Tor address.)
-
Register an account
-
Click Register (no email required).
-
Login: 5–20 characters (letters + numbers). Password: 8–30 characters.
-
After registration you’ll be able to deposit funds and buy proxies.
-
-
Set proxy authorization (recommended)
-
Go to Profile → Change Socks5 login:pass and set a login/password specifically for proxy authorization.
-
If you set this, purchased proxies will require that login:password which improves stability/security. (If not set, older format proxies may work without auth.)
-
-
Make first deposit
-
INSOCKS accepts Bitcoin and Litecoin (and are working to add more cryptos). Deposit funds from the Payments/Billing section.
-
-
Find proxies you want
-
Go to Current Online (main list). Use filters: country, state, city, ISP, type (MOB/ISP/DCH), area, speed, etc., to narrow results. They show whether a proxy is mobile / residential / datacenter and some quality indicators.
-
-
-
Buy a proxy
-
Click the proxy row you like in the main list. The purchase flow will charge your account balance and open a port for 24 hours. Prices vary (base ≈ $0.5–0.8 per 24h; fresher proxies cost more).
-
-
-
Check purchased proxy
-
Go to History to see purchased proxies, the actual IP:PORT, and to perform actions (refund, add note, enable autorenewal). Sometimes IP:PORT may change — History shows the current values.
-
-
Use auto-renewal if you want longer validity
-
In History, select a proxy and enable Auto-renew to have the system automatically re-buy the same proxy daily (it only buys if proxy is online). Your balance will be debited like a normal purchase.
-
-
How authentication looks in connection string
-
If you set login:pass, proxies will be used like login:password@IP:PORT. Make sure you use the proxy protocol you need (socks4/socks5/https are supported).
-
-
Refunds & claims
-
If a purchased proxy goes offline within 2 hours of purchase you can request a refund (there’s a refund button in History or file a ticket within allowed time). Refunds have rules and minimums (manual refunds have processing rules). Read the refund policy carefully before buying.
