Static proxies
Static proxies use a fixed IP address that remains the same over time.
They are recommended for long-term account management where a stable login location is required.
Sticky proxies
Sticky proxies maintain the same IP address for a limited session period (usually 10–30 minutes) before rotating.
They are useful when short-term session consistency is needed, also good for account management.
Rotating proxies
Rotating proxies automatically assign a new IP address from a proxy pool.
Rotation may occur:
on every request
after a session ends
after a set time interval
They are typically used for high-volume scraping or data collection. They generally can be used for account management if they keep the same IP during the session.
Which type for which platform?
Platform | Recommended proxy type | Why |
Static residential or mobile | IP changes trigger immediate security review | |
Facebook / Meta Ads | Static residential or sticky | Geo-consistency required for ad accounts |
Amazon / eBay / Etsy | Static ISP | Rotating IPs link accounts and trigger bans |
TikTok (new accounts) | Mobile | Mobile IPs have highest trust for account creation |
Web scraping | Rotating residential or datacenter | Speed and volume matter more than consistency |
Betting platforms | Mobile | Highest trust level, platforms are aggressive against desktop fingerprints |
Using rotating proxies for Amazon seller accounts is a common mistake that leads to account bans. Amazon links accounts by IP - if your IP rotates, multiple accounts may be flagged as connected.
