Mobile proxies without KYC: what we ask, what others ask

What does CellMast ask for, and what does it keep?

To open an account, nothing: you receive an account number and may add an email if you want receipts and easier recovery. To pay, a crypto top-up. We do not log the content of your requests, full URLs or page data. To handle abuse reports and billing disputes, we keep connection metadata (time, account, exit IP, target hostname, bytes) for up to 30 days, then delete it. We keep your account number, orders, top-up records and traffic totals while your account is open, and afterwards only as long as accounting rules require. We disclose records to authorities only when the law requires it. Our upstream network provider may keep its own logs under its own policy.

The privacy policy lists every field and how long it is kept. The principle is simple: data we do not collect cannot leak, be sold or be requested from us.

Which mobile proxy providers require KYC in 2026?

Policies changed fast this year. We read each provider's own policy page on 2026-10-13; the table summarises what the page says, not what happens in every case.

Why do some providers require ID?

Mostly because of abuse and pressure from upstream networks and regulators. In January 2026 Google described disrupting the IPIDEA residential proxy network, which threat groups had used at scale.

Separately, NetNut's domains were seized by the FBI on 2 July 2026; its owner, Alarum, disputes the allegations, and no charges had been announced when we checked (2026-10-13).

SOAX, Proxidize and Oxylabs publish identity-check policies (checked 2026-10-13).

An ID check is one way to deter abuse. CellMast uses others: blocked target categories, a public Acceptable Use Policy, a person who reads abuse reports, and suspension for confirmed abuse. These protect the people who share carrier IPs without asking every customer for a passport.

What does no KYC not mean?

• It does not mean anything goes. Fraud, spam, credential attacks and harassment are banned. Blocked at the network level: Online banking, government and payment-portal sites, and outgoing email on SMTP ports 25, 465 and 587.
• It does not mean invisible. A carrier sees its modem's traffic; a blockchain records your top-up; CellMast keeps the records listed above.
• It does not mean no cooperation. CellMast answers lawful requests from authorities with jurisdiction over ProxyGoat LLC, with the data it holds, which contains no ID documents.

No KYC is about privacy and speed: no paperwork for people with legitimate work.

Is it legal to buy a mobile proxy without KYC?

In most countries, yes: buying network services without showing ID is lawful, and many internet services work that way. What you do through the proxy must be legal where you are and where the target is, and must follow the target's terms. This is general information, not legal advice.

How can I check whether a provider really skips KYC?

1. Read its terms and KYC page, not only the landing page: many reserve the right to ask for ID later.
2. Check whether crypto is accepted before or only after verification (SOAX, for example, accepts crypto only after KYC).
3. Look for an llms.txt or llm-info page; some providers state their policy there for assistants and press.
4. Check the refund rules: a provider that refunds only to a verified wallet is asking for identity in another form. CellMast refunds to your balance.
