Understanding Native vs Broadcast Residential IPs
Native Residential IP and Broadcast Residential IP are both static residential IPs, but they differ mainly in how the IP is sourced and how it appears to websites:
Native Residential IP
Assigned directly by a real residential ISP to a single household.
Typically shows a clear, one-to-one ISP and ASN mapping.
Higher trust level and better acceptance on strict platforms (e.g. e-commerce, social media, payment systems).
More limited supply and usually higher cost.
In most cases, the ISP cannot be freely chosen and depends on availability.
Broadcast Residential IP
Residential IPs distributed via ISP broadcast or large residential network segments.
Still identified as residential by major IP databases.
Very stable and cost-effective for most use cases.
Slightly lower “purity” than native residential, but works well for the vast majority of scenarios such as scraping, account management, and automation.
ISP selection is generally not supported; the ISP is assigned automatically.
About choosing an ISP
For static residential IPs, ISP selection is usually not available, because IPs come from fixed residential allocations.
What you can choose is the country / region, and the IP will remain the same for the full validity period.
