The KYC rule above applies to its Residential network. 10 GB and 100 GB PAYG totals are derived from the published per-GB rates. ## Does Bright Data require KYC for Latin American residential proxies? Yes, for new Residential zones. Bright Data's documentation says its Residential proxies "are available only to verified companies that pass a human-reviewed KYC" check, and that the requirement "applies only to new Residential zones created after July 7, 2026". Accounts with a personal email are not eligible for Residential access. The rule applies to every country, so it covers Brazilian, Mexican and Argentine IPs too. Its ISP, Datacenter and Web Unlocker products do not require KYC, per the same page. Older articles describe a no-KYC mode for Bright Data residential, and some Spanish-language search results still show them. Bright Data's current documentation, read on 5 October 2026, describes the KYC rule above instead. LatamProxies has no KYC step at all. You get an account number, pay in crypto and receive credentials as soon as your top-up is credited. ## Can I pay Bright Data with crypto? No. Bright Data's pricing FAQ lists PayPal, Payoneer, Alipay, Google Pay, wire transfers and credit cards, plus AWS Marketplace. It does not list any cryptocurrency. LatamProxies works the other way round: crypto is the only payment method. We accept USDT on TRC-20 and ERC-20, BTC, USDC, ETH, LTC and SOL. USDT is already the largest crypto asset in Brazil's declared operations: R$33.96 billion in June 2026, per Receita Federal open data. Paying in USDT avoids card fees and a second currency conversion. ## How do Bright Data and LatamProxies prices compare for Latin America? Both charge one rate for all countries, so Brazil costs the same as Mexico. The difference is the rate. - **1 GB:** LatamProxies $2.63 vs Bright Data $8 list ($4 with its current promo). - **10 GB:** LatamProxies $5.94 vs Bright Data $80 list ($40 promo). - **100 GB:** LatamProxies $50 vs Bright Data $800 list ($400 promo), or its $499 monthly plan for 141 GB. Bright Data's promotion (code RESIGB50) halves residential prices for 3 months. After that, list prices apply. LatamProxies plans have no promo codes and no subscription. See the [pricing page](https://latamproxies.com/pricing/) for all tiers. ## When is Bright Data the better choice? Bright Data is the better fit in several cases, and we say so plainly: - **You need ZIP or ASN targeting.** Bright Data includes country, state, city, ZIP and ASN targeting for free. LatamProxies offers country and city only. - **You need a managed data product.** Bright Data sells a Mercado Libre MAP monitoring product, for example. - **Your company already passes KYC** and pays by invoice, card or AWS Marketplace. - **You need ISP or datacenter proxies** without KYC. LatamProxies fits better when you want Latin American residential or 4G/5G mobile IPs quickly, without company verification, paid in USDT or another coin. ## Does LatamProxies cover the same Latin American countries?

Not for new zones. Bright Data's documentation says Residential proxies are available only to verified companies that pass a human-reviewed KYC check, for zones created after July 7, 2026. Personal-email accounts are not eligible. Its ISP, Datacenter and Web Unlocker products do not require KYC. LatamProxies sells residential IPs with no KYC at all. ### Does Bright Data accept USDT or Bitcoin? No. As of October 2026, Bright Data's pricing FAQ lists PayPal, Payoneer, Alipay, Google Pay, wire transfers, credit cards and AWS Marketplace. LatamProxies accepts only crypto: USDT on TRC-20 and ERC-20, BTC, USDC, ETH, LTC and SOL. ### Is LatamProxies cheaper than Bright Data for Brazil? At published prices, yes. On 5 October 2026, Bright Data charged $8/GB PAYG at list price, or $4/GB with its 3-month promo code. LatamProxies charges $2.63 for 1 GB and $5.94 for 10 GB, with the same price in every Latin American country we cover. The small plan is paid from a $25 minimum top-up; the rest stays on your balance (never expires, non-refundable). ### What does Bright Data offer that LatamProxies does not? Bright Data includes ZIP and ASN targeting, state targeting, ISP and datacenter proxies and managed products such as Mercado Libre MAP monitoring. LatamProxies focuses on Latin American residential and 4G/5G mobile IPs with country and city targeting, crypto payment and no KYC. ### Can I keep my scraper code when I switch? Usually yes. Change the proxy host to gw.latamproxies.com, the port to 7777 (HTTP) or 7778 (SOCKS5), and the username to our format with `-country-` and optional `-city-` and `-session-` parts. Remove ZIP or ASN parameters, which we do not support. ### Does LatamProxies offer 4G/5G mobile proxies? Yes. LatamProxies sells dedicated 4G/5G ports from $9/day and rotating mobile traffic from $1.50/GB in Latin America. Bright Data's pricing menu on 5 October 2026 listed only Residential, Datacenter and ISP proxies. Carriers depend on live stock, for example Vivo, Claro or TIM in Brazil and Telcel in Mexico. ### Is a no-KYC proxy legal to use? Yes, for legitimate work such as public price monitoring, SEO tracking, ad verification and testing. No KYC means we do not collect ID documents; it does not lift any law or our rules. Our acceptable use policy blocks banking, government and payment portals and outgoing SMTP, and fraud ends the account. ### Can I get a refund if LatamProxies does not work for my target? Yes, within limits: unused traffic is refundable within 72 hours of purchase if the proxies do not work for your target and support cannot fix it. Tell support your target and the error first, because a different city, a sticky session or a slower request rate fixes most issues. ## Sources (checked 5 October 2026) 1.
