TL;DROur verdict on LumiProxy, in 5 facts
- Hong Kong-based (QIANRUI NETWORK TECHNOLOGY CO., LIMITED) multi-product proxy provider, brand active since about 2021-2022
- Residential billing is per-GB (traffic-based); static products are per-IP (daily/weekly/monthly), so overall pricing is mixed
- Advertises 90M+ IPs / 195+ locations and ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification, but all figures are vendor-stated with no independent audit
- Strict no-refund policy and no true free trial make low-risk evaluation harder than with many competitors
- Best for cost-conscious scrapers wanting city-level targeting; avoid if you need refunds, a free trial, or verified performance data
The verdict
Independent nightly benchmarks since March 2024 — here's where LumiProxy lands.
- Broad product lineup: rotating and unlimited residential, static residential, ISP, datacenter proxies plus Web Scraper, SERP and Video Scraper APIs
- Vendor-stated 90M+ residential IP pool across 195+ locations, covering any city worldwide and all 50 US states
- Free country and city-level geo-targeting on residential proxies (per official site)
- Supports both HTTP and SOCKS5 protocols with sticky sessions and automatic rotation
- Low-cost entry point ($10 for 2 GB) and volume-based per-GB discounts down to roughly $0.80-$1.25/GB at scale (per independent reviews)
- ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification stated for its proxy and scraper products
- API plus Open API for automation, with username/password and IP-whitelist authentication
- No published independent benchmarks (success rate, latency, uptime); only a vendor 99%+ uptime marketing claim
- Strict no-refund policy: all purchases are final per the official Refund Policy
- No traditional free trial for residential proxies (free trial only on Web Scraper API)
- Limited company transparency and a relatively thin public review footprint
- Service not available in mainland China per vendor policy
- Exact residential pricing renders dynamically and was not cleanly confirmable from the official page at fetch time

What we think after testing LumiProxy
Editorial review by Maya Cortez · last tested Jul 9, 2026
LumiProxy is a proxy service operated by QIANRUI NETWORK TECHNOLOGY CO., LIMITED, a company registered in Mong Kok, Kowloon, Hong Kong (per its official Refund Policy, effective January 1, 2022, which suggests the brand launched around 2021-2022). It positions itself as a full-stack data-collection provider rather than a single-product vendor, and on its published specifications the catalog is genuinely broad: rotating residential proxies, unlimited residential proxies, long-acting ISP proxies, static residential proxies, static datacenter proxies, plus a Web Scraper API, SERP API and Video Scraper API.
On network scale, LumiProxy advertises 90M+ real residential IPs across 195+ locations, with coverage described as "any city worldwide" and all 50 US states. These are vendor-stated figures; LumiProxy publishes no independently audited pool size, and third-party reviews largely echo the company's own numbers rather than verifying them. Independent write-ups note the static residential pool is smaller and less transparent (cited at roughly 37 countries by one review), and several reviewers flag limited public information about the company and its IP-sourcing methods as a drawback. The one hard third-party credibility marker is its stated ISO/IEC 27001:2022 certification.
Targeting and rotation are competitive on paper. According to the site, residential proxies support free country and city geo-targeting, automatic timed rotation, and sticky sessions (the homepage cites sticky sessions up to 90 minutes; independent reviews report configurable session durations). Authentication supports both username/password and IP whitelisting, and the service exposes an API plus an Open API for account automation. Protocols are HTTP and SOCKS5, per the residential product page. ASN/ISP-level targeting is referenced in product descriptions and independent reviews but is not clearly documented as a first-class self-serve option on the official pages I could confirm, so I have left ASN targeting unconfirmed.
On pricing, LumiProxy uses traffic-based (per-GB) billing for residential proxies and per-IP billing for static products. The live pricing page renders values dynamically and displayed placeholder "$0/GB" figures at fetch time, so exact tiers below are corroborated from independent reviews rather than a clean official capture: a $10/month Trial plan for 2 GB ($5/GB), a $20/month Starter plan for 10 GB ($2/GB), scaling to a $750/month plan for 600 GB (about $1.25/GB), with one review citing an effective floor around $0.80/GB at higher volume. Static residential proxies are cited at roughly $1/IP per day, $3/IP per week and $6/IP per month. Because these numbers come from third-party reviews, buyers should verify current pricing directly in the dashboard. The site accepts multiple payment methods (payment-icon strip on the pricing page; independent reviews list PayPal, Visa/MasterCard and crypto), though I could not fully confirm the crypto option from the official pages alone.
Trial and refund terms are a weak spot. There is no traditional free trial for residential proxies (a free trial is advertised only for the Web Scraper API); the low-cost $10 plan functions as the paid entry point. More importantly, LumiProxy's official Refund Policy is explicit that all purchases are final and non-refundable given the "intangible and irrevocable" nature of the product, with a long list of non-refundable situations. That is stricter than the money-back windows offered by several larger competitors and should factor heavily into any trial decision. The service is also unavailable in mainland China per the vendor's stated policy.
Reputation is thin. LumiProxy has relatively few public reviews, and coverage tends to describe it as a promising but smaller, less-established player. Crucially, no independent benchmarks (success rate, latency, uptime) are published on the official site; the only performance figure the vendor states is "99%+ uptime (subject to different products)," which is a marketing claim, not an audited number. Prospective buyers should treat all performance and pool-size claims as vendor-stated and validate them against their own workloads.
Who it's best for: cost-sensitive teams and scrapers who want per-GB residential traffic with city-level targeting, a broad product menu, and are comfortable testing via a cheap paid plan. Who should avoid it: buyers who need a genuine free trial or a money-back guarantee, those requiring documented ASN targeting or transparent, independently verified pool figures, and anyone needing service inside mainland China. Overall LumiProxy looks like a capable, competitively priced mid-tier provider whose main caveats are the no-refund policy and the absence of independent verification.

-
4
Add error handling and alerting
Configure retries on the client side and route LumiProxy responses into your APM (Datadog, New Relic, OpenTelemetry) so you catch ban-rate spikes early.
-
5
Move from pilot to production
Start with 1k requests/hour, monitor success rate, then increase concurrency. At ~$0.80/GB, most teams hit volume targets within a sprint.
