Proxy-Cheap Proxy Checker
Proxy-Cheap offers residential and datacenter proxies at low per-GB or per-IP pricing. Paste your proxies with credentials to see which are alive, what exit IP they use, where they exit, and how fast they respond. Useful before running any job to filter dead IPs and confirm country targeting is working.
Live checking is discontinued
ProxyChecker.dev no longer runs proxy checks, the API, MCP tools or paid plans. Nothing on this site tests a proxy anymore. The guides below still explain how proxy testing works and what to look for.

Frequently asked questions
How do I check Proxy-Cheap residential proxies?
Paste the gateway endpoint with your username and password as host:port:user:pass. The checker connects through the proxy and reports the exit IP and country so you can confirm the gateway is up and targeting is correct.
How do I validate Proxy-Cheap datacenter IPs?
Paste your static IPs one per line with auth. Each gets an individual check for liveness, latency, and location, making it easy to identify dead IPs before a scraping run.
Why is my Proxy-Cheap proxy slow?
Residential proxies route through real devices and latency varies by node load and location. The checker shows latency per proxy so you can identify slow nodes and filter them out or rotate more aggressively.
Can I check a whole Proxy-Cheap export at once?
The free tier checks 50 per run. For a full list, a $5 one-time pack covers 5,000 validations, or use npx proxychecker-dev yourlist.txt from the terminal.
