What Happens When My Traffic Runs Out?
Last updated: 2026-09-04 17:37:06
When using Residential Proxies, you may sometimes need to complete a task that requires more traffic than your remaining balance. For example, you may have only 100MB of traffic left but need to download a file or load a webpage that consumes 200MB of traffic.
In this situation, you can continue using the proxy until the traffic limit is exceeded. After that, your proxy access will be temporarily suspended, and you will not be able to send new requests until you purchase and activate a new plan.
The extra traffic usage will still be recorded in your account. When you activate a new plan, the overused traffic amount will be deducted from your new traffic balance.
For example, if you purchase a 1GB plan but have previously used 100MB of extra traffic, your available balance after activation may show only 900MB. This is because the additional usage from your previous plan has been deducted.
