Best unlimited data SIM card/provider

[s14sr20det]

Hello, building a mobile proxy farm with iproxy.online. They couldn't direct me to any SIM card/data carriers for a good price.

For anyone that has a proxy farm, what SIM cards in the US do you use that are unlimited or do you use IoT pay-as-you-go SIM card data plans?

Any help would be appreciated. Not trying to pay $40 a month for unlimited data SIMs with T-Mobile.

How do ya'll do it?

Hmmm I don't see anything about SIM cards on proxy-seller. Do you have the link to the part about SIM cards and purchasing them? Thank you.

USA unlimited sims for cheap don't exist, you can get sims with so much premium/priority data and then they throttle after X GBs of data. Verizon is known to severly throttle the most but they have a unlimited premium plan but no where near your $40 price point. Tmobile has the most reasonable price point but only offer 50GB of premium unthrottled data. And by throttle it means when there is a congestion, so if you pick a good spot that has little congestion you won't get throttled theoritically.

Hey! We can't exactly list the top recommended mobile operators, but we can still share some info (by the way, I'll pass this along to our support team so they can share it too).

Negotiating with US mobile operators is the key for sweetest deal. One of our big proxy farmers there says it’s one of the trickiest parts of the job!

It's best to contact a mobile operator’s business client representative rather than a regular employee you’d buy a personal SIM card from. Explain your needs and how many SIM cards you require (don't mention a word about the proxy farm to them - use a cover story). Negotiating with someone who deals with business or wholesale accounts can significantly influence the terms you obtain. For example, that big farmer discussed terms with three operators who provided strong signals in his area and chose the one offering the best deal. These negotiations can be tough but are key to obtaining favorable rates and boosting earnings.

Hope it will help!

Yep, cheap unlimited SIMs aren’t really a thing in the USA. Most plans give you some high-speed data, then slow down after that. Verizon has strict throttling, even on their premium plan, which is pricey. T-Mobile’s a bit cheaper, but they cap high-speed data at 50GB. Throttling mostly kicks in during busy times, so if you’re in a quiet area, you might not notice it as much.

Hey, did you find a good solution? Looking myself too, thanks

Haven't found anything unfortunately.

For a mobile proxy farm, many use IoT pay-as-you-go SIM cards or look for budget-friendly carriers offering unlimited data plans. Some popular options include smaller MVNOs or carriers with discounted rates for bulk purchases.

You can also explore resellers or wholesale SIM card providers for better deals.

How many do you need to buy in order for this to make sense? Also do they frown on proxies?

I’m not fully sure I get what you mean by “make sense.”

If you’re talking about profit from proxies: a farm with 10 phones can be profitable, and so can one with 1,000 -- it’s just a totally different level of management. You can start small with a few phones (and SIMs) and begin earning right away.

If you mean how many SIM cards a carrier is willing to sell you: that’s very situational and depends on how persuasive you are, like I mentioned in my original comment.

About how carriers feel about proxies: bringing that up will only make negotiations harder. Whether they hand out a bunch of SIMs to one person is often up to whichever manager you’re talking to. That manager probably has no idea what proxies are (and won’t bother to find out), so he may just turn you down to avoid any trouble with his boss. Better to skip the proxy talk and stick to a simpler cover story.

I mean how much do you have to spend for the sales rep to care about you?

When I deal with hosting, if you're not looking to spend at least $1000/month, they don't want to even talk to you.

Got it. No, with mobile operators there isn’t any real lower limit. The tricky part is buying a lot of SIMs under one person or company. Grabbing 1-3 SIMs is no problem at all, but once you try to scale up you’ll need extra negotiations, some persuasion, and a good cover story. At the same time, you’ll probably be talking about better (cheaper) data plans.

Sorry if this sounds a bit vague -- everything is super situational and depends on the particular sales rep you end up with.

I’m talking about the US here, since that was the OP’s case. Other countries can play out differently, but you still usually won’t run into a minimum purchase limit. If you walk in and say right away that you need 100/200/500/1000 SIMs, it’s more likely to raise eyebrows than excitement. Make it slowly.

What kind of cover story would you make for this? Surely proxies aren't illegal or pose a burden? Or maybe they do? Would they start getting a bunch of abuse reports that would cause a headache?

Honestly, the best cover story is something super boring, like "we’re in logistics, and the phones are for coordinating routes". The simpler and duller it sounds, the better.

Definitely dont mention anything about proxies -- it could easily be flagged as a violation of their policies. Worst case, they’ll throttle the data plan or even block the SIM entirely.

Before talking to a sales rep, it’s a good idea to Google their KPIs. That way you can frame your arguments in a way that works in your favor. For example, retention is usually a big deal for them -- they want SIMs to stay active as long as possible, since that affects their bonuses. So it helps to mention upfront that you’ll be keeping the SIMs running long-term.

So out of the big 3, t-mobile, verizon, at&t, which one allows proxies? I asked AI, and they said none of them do as it would be considered reselling. Don't know how true this is.

Maybe that is why good mobile proxies are so expensive due to the risk of getting shut down. The prices are so high that I was thinking about setting up my own just to sell.

Well yeah, obviously none of the big three are going to officially endorse you selling proxies.
Same way Instagram, Facebook, etc. don’t allow multi-accounting or scraping. And really, no website wants to be scraped, which is exactly why scrapers need proxies in the first place

In practice mobile carriers aren’t out there trying detect proxy usage -- they couldn’t care less. It’s not their problem.
Sales reps just don’t want to get their ass in trouble, so they need a decent reason they can type into their system and feel safe about.

And yep, good mobile proxies are expensive for a reason -- it’s a valuable product, and proxy sellers make solid money from it.
