Platform-locked vs full-access: how our two plan shapes work

Our catalog has two broad plan shapes. Platform-locked plans assign an endpoint to one platform you choose at checkout. Full-access plans work with any destination and add rotation control. Same real-SIM 4G mobile infrastructure, same unlimited data — different scope.

What locked to one platform means

When you buy a locked plan you pick a platform at checkout — Instagram, TikTok, Reddit, X, whichever — and we provision an authenticated endpoint for that job. The lock is on the destination, not on the mobile-network class. There are two locked tiers per region: the entry tiers, PLATFORM in the EU at $55 and INCREDIBLE in the US at $89.90, and above them the rotating tiers, ROTATING (EU) at $60 and TREMENDOUS (US) at $99.90, which add automatic rotation and both HTTP + SOCKS5 ports.

Why locked is cheaper

You are buying less scope, not a different mobile-network class. Every locked plan gives up the freedom to point the endpoint anywhere, and no locked tier includes the on-demand rotation link. Beyond that the two locked levels differ on the rotation axis: the entry tiers (PLATFORM, INCREDIBLE) use a single HTTP port with carrier-controlled IP changes only, while ROTATING and TREMENDOUS rotate automatically — but still serve just the platform you locked. You pay for the controls the job uses.

What full-access adds

• Every platform and website — no destination lock at all.
• A rotating IP; on YUGE, FULL-ACCESS and VPN, a personal API rotation link your scripts can call too.
• Both ports, HTTP and SOCKS5, side by side.
• FULL-ACCESS (EU) at $80 and YUGE (US) at $120 with priority support. The professional VPN and MULTI-SIM products are full-access by design — MULTI-SIM can select a different SIM path per connection.

When a locked line is the right call

• One account, one platform, one line — the standard play in our playbooks. An Instagram identity has no use for Reddit access.
• Scaling account counts: with locked plans starting at $55 in the EU and $89.90 in the US, assigning every account a separate authenticated endpoint stays affordable.
• Set-and-forget workloads where the target never changes and nobody scripts rotation.

When you want full access

• Scraping and data collection across changing targets — scripted rotation through the API link is the whole workflow.
• Agencies running mixed platforms who'd rather standardize one plan shape across clients.
• Authorized e-commerce monitoring: full access supports broader destinations, both ports and on-demand rotation between stateless checks.
• Anything where tomorrow's target isn't known today.

You're not boxed in

Two escape hatches worth knowing. Platform changes on a locked line are usually possible — message support and we'll re-lock the line to the new platform. And moving up to a full-access shape is a normal request, not a cancel-and-rebuy drama. Start with the shape that matches today's workload and adjust when the workload changes.

The short version: buy locked when the line serves one account on one platform — which describes most social operations — and buy full-access when you concretely need the rotation API or multi-target freedom. If you're unsure, you're probably the first case.
