What is a static ISP proxy?
It's a hybrid. The IP address belongs to a range registered to a real consumer ISP (Comcast, Verizon, Vodafone-type providers), so anti-fraud systems classify it as residential. But it's routed through commercial server infrastructure, so it's fast, always-on, and — critically — static: the same IP is assigned to you for the life of the plan.
Compare the three IP classes you can buy:
| Static ISP | Rotating residential | Datacenter | |
|---|---|---|---|
| Looks like | Home user | Home user | Server |
| IP changes? | Never | Constantly | Never |
| Speed / uptime | Server-grade | Depends on peer | Server-grade |
| Priced | Per IP/month | Per GB | Per IP/month |
| Best for | Stable logins, one identity | Scraping at scale | Speed on soft targets |
When static ISP is the right buy
- Account you log into repeatedly — marketplaces (Amazon, eBay, Etsy), social accounts, ad managers. Sites tie sessions to IPs; a stable residential-looking IP means no “new device” checks every visit.
- One identity per IP — multi-accounting with an antidetect browser, where each profile needs its own consistent address.
- Payment and verification flows — anything where a mid-session IP change triggers a fraud review.
- Long-running monitors — price or stock watchers that must hold a session for days.
When it's the wrong buy: high-volume scraping. One static IP hammering a target gets rate-limited fast — that's rotating-residential work (see our residential guide).
Fair static ISP pricing in 2026
Expect a few dollars per IP per month, varying with country (US/UK/EU IPs cost more than exotic geos) and exclusivity. Two things to verify before paying: the IP is dedicated (shared “static” IPs inherit other users' bans), and the range is genuinely ISP-registered — ask for the ASN and check it, because some sellers relabel datacenter ranges as “ISP”.
That last check takes ten seconds after delivery: connect through the IP and open our IP check tool. It prints the autonomous system and its owner, so a hosting range sold to you as “ISP” is immediately obvious — and worth a refund request.
If you bought static ISP from IP2World
IP2World's static ISP product was retired in early 2026 along with the old storefront. IP2World sells again — rotating residential, directly on this site — but static ISP is not back in our catalogue yet, so the recommendation below points somewhere that stocks it today.
The lesson from that outage is worth keeping either way: when your static IPs sit behind a single network, losing that network loses the addresses, and every account tied to them faces re-verification from somewhere new. Buy static IPs where several networks sit behind one balance, so one failure doesn't take your identities with it.
