## Quick answer

 

For SNKRS, give **every Nike member account its own dedicated static ISP IP** in the account's country, and keep the account on that IP for months. A static IP never changes between launches, so the account always signs in from the same place.

 

A proxy does not change **Nike's draw rules**: one entry per person per product, with a verified phone number. Entries that break the rules can be cancelled whatever IP they came from.

## What SNKRS checks

 

Nike's SNKRS Draw rules spell out what an entry needs. **A Nike Member profile, a valid email and a verified mobile number** are required, and you pre-authorise a payment method that is charged only if you win. Winners and non-winners hear back within about 24 hours of the draw closing.

 

The same rules say the Draw was created to counter automated bots. Nike may block or refuse sale to anyone who abuses the process, including **programs or scripts that automate entries**, and it reserves the right to cancel winning entries.

 

Nike also talks about the scale of the problem. In 2023, SNKRS VP and GM Lucy Rouse said the app sees **nearly 12 billion bot entries a month**, that close to half the entries on hyped launches were bots, and that Nike removes up to 98% of them, as reported by Sneaker News.

 

## Why each account needs one static IP

 

An account that signs in from a different address every week, or from a cloud server, looks nothing like a normal customer. **A static ISP IP stays the same for the whole rental**, from 30 to 360 days, and comes from a carrier range rather than a data center.

 

Rotating residential IPs are a poor fit here. A home device can go offline at any time, and the next session lands on a new address. That is useful for spreading requests, not for an account that should look settled. **NSB's FAQ recommends ISPs for Nike** for the same reason.

 

| Choice | What Nike sees across launches | Fit for member accounts |
| --- | --- | --- |
| **Dedicated static ISP** | The same carrier IP every time | Best |
| Rotating residential | A new home IP most sessions | Poor |
| Datacenter | A hosting range | Poor |
| One IP shared by many accounts | Many members on one address | Avoid |

 

## Map accounts to IPs

 

Write the mapping down before the first launch and never shuffle it. A simple table is enough:

 

| Account | Country | IP | Since |
| --- | --- | --- | --- |
| member-01 | US | 203.0.113.24 | 2026-10-30 |
| member-02 | US | 203.0.113.87 | 2026-10-30 |
| member-03 | UK | 198.51.100.15 | 2026-10-30 |

 

**Match the IP country to the account country.** A US member account should use a US IP, a UK account a UK IP. ProxyLane's sneaker pool is in stock in the US, UK, Canada, Australia and Germany.

 

In the ProxyLane dashboard you can **name each IP** in an order with more than one IP: open the order with **View** and add a name such as `member-01` under **IP names**. The name stays with the IP for the whole term, so the mapping lives next to the credentials.

 

## Set it up in your bot

 

1. **Order one IP per account** in the account's country.
 
1. **Copy the list** as `ip:port:user:pass` from the order's View dialog.
 
1. **Assign one line per account** in the bot or browser profile, following your mapping table.
 
1. **Check each IP once** with a lookup such as `https://ipinfo.io/json` through the proxy: the country should match and `org` should name an internet provider.
 
1. **Keep the pairing** for every launch. If a line gets banned, replace that one IP and update the table.

 

Our  [step-by-step guide for Valor and NSB](https://proxylane.dev/blog/sneaker-bot-proxy-setup)  shows where the list goes in each bot.

 

## What a proxy cannot do

 

A proxy changes the address a request comes from. It does not create a second person, a second phone number or a second payment card. **Nike allows one entry per person per launch product**, and its rules void later registrations for the same style.

 

Use proxies to keep the accounts you legitimately run stable and in the right country. Results still depend on the draw, which picks winners at random.

 

## Where to get the IPs

 

ProxyLane's  [Nike proxies](https://proxylane.dev/use-cases/nike-proxies)  come from a sneaker pool picked for Nike, Foot Locker and JD Sports, at **$3.90 per IP for 30 days**. Keep an IP for 90 days to save 10% or 360 days to save 15%, with unlimited traffic and free replacement if a line gets banned.
