| Free tier | No free allowance published; 'Entry allowance 5 GB, Entry rate $2.75/GB, Payable total USD $13.75, Traffic validity 186 days'. unit GB; metered on downloaded-bytes; The 186-day validity is why this is the one metered product that could be bought in small amounts without losing the purchase at month end. |
|---|---|
| Price | USD 0.95/GB at the 500 GB package, i.e. USD 973 per TiB derived from that rung |
| Limits |
Rotation per connection is the wrong shape for a long download: a single HTTP transfer holds one connection, so a rotation policy that only changes on a new connection leaves the transfer on one address, which is what a debrid IP check wants. |
| Identity | card Self-service checkout at app.databay.com with card; no identity document mentioned on the page read. |
| Egress | Prepaid packages, each a fixed allowance at a fixed rate: '5 GB+ $13.75 $2.75/GB ... 10 GB $22.50 $2.25/GB ... 50 GB $87.50 $1.75/GB ... 150 GB $210.00 $1.40/GB ... 500 GB $475.00'. The product is 'a shared rotating pool, not a static ISP allocation'. free allowance: none price per tb: USD 0.95/GB at the 500 GB package (USD 475); the 1 TB package was not read |
| Per-object cap | not applicable: a byte stream, not an object |
| Retention | not applicable to the traffic; the purchased GB is valid for 186 days (5 GB package) or 31 days (packages from 10 GB) |
| Interface | rest HTTP(S) and SOCKS5 rotating pool, country or continent selector, sticky sessions up to 120 minutes on the datacenter product; the residential page states connection-based rotation. endpoint: https://app.databay.com/ |
| Tooling | any HTTP/SOCKS5 client |
| Composes with | Prepaid and valid for 186 days at the entry tier, so it is the metered product a corpus can test once without a monthly commitment; at TiB scale it is still USD 973 for 500 GB. |
| Reliability | 'A fresh IP is not guaranteed for every connection' and sticky sessions 'may end before that requested window' - a mid-transfer address change is the failure mode, and it is the one debrid terms punish as account sharing. |
| Notes | Entered as a low-rate outlier and stayed because of the 186-day validity, which makes it the only metered vendor here a small test purchase does not waste. |
| Evidence note | documented The package table is on the vendor page read. The 1 TB rung was below the fold and is not quoted, so the per-TiB figure is derived from the 500 GB package and labelled as such. |
