# Getting started: Proxy Solutions

### 1. Create an account

To get started with our proxy solutions, simply create an account via the [Oxylabs dashboard](https://dashboard.oxylabs.io/en/). After creating an account, you'll see various proxy options available. Choose from Residential, Mobile, ISP, Dedicated ISP, Datacenter, or Dedicated Datacenter Proxies, depending on your use case.

### 2. Choose a plan

After choosing a proxy type, you'll need to pick a plan that best fits your needs. If you're interested in a free trial to test our proxies, you need to email our support team at <support@oxylabs.io>, or you can choose a cost-saving subscription right away.

### 3. Get your credentials

After choosing a subscription, you’ll be directed to a screen asking you to create a proxy user. These credentials will be your key for user authorization later on. Once you confirm a username and password, a test query will appear for you to test your proxies.
