A trial plan is a limited free or low-cost offer that lets new customers test a proxy service before committing to a full subscription. It usually includes a small amount of bandwidth or a short time window to evaluate performance.
The provider sets a reduced scope for the trial, such as a fixed amount of data, a limited number of IP addresses, or a short number of days of access. New users sign up, sometimes providing payment details and sometimes not, and get access to a scaled-down version of the full service. This lets customers test speed, reliability, and ease of setup before paying for a larger plan. Some trials automatically convert to a paid subscription if not canceled before the trial period ends.
This is largely a plan and configuration choice, not a technical limitation.
USER-trial-plan-session-task01Everything lives in the username -- add "trial-plan" to any proxy credential to apply trial plan to a single task. Swap "task01" for a new label to spin up an independent, isolated identity.
KnoxProxy sticky sessions persist up to 30 minutes on residential (60 on mobile), and the window refreshes with activity.
Each session or connection label gets its own exit, so parallel identities never collide.
This costs nothing beyond bandwidth -- successful responses are billed, not the session or connection itself.
Run as many parallel sessions or connections as the job needs -- concurrency is not capped on any plan.
A developer signs up for a 3-day trial plan with 100 MB of bandwidth to confirm a scraping script works correctly before buying a full plan.
A trial plan lets buyers verify real-world performance and compatibility with their tools before spending money on a larger commitment. Checking the fine print of a trial helps avoid unexpected charges if it auto-renews into a paid plan.
This varies by provider. Some require payment details upfront and charge automatically after the trial, while others offer a no-card free trial with more limited features.
Most trials offer enough bandwidth and time to confirm basic connectivity and script compatibility. They rarely support full-scale production testing.
