Etsy accounts getting suspended

enco · #1 01-17-2020

Hi, I dont know if you guys also talk about Etsy here. I used to have a bunch of Etsy stores and all of them got suspended but 1.
I made a trip and had to use VPNs to answer questions and pay bills, when I got back a few day after all went down.
Now I opened another store, with a Fresh IP from 24vc from an etsy payments country, with same etsy payments country ID but got suspended a few hours after.

I read on the guide that fresh IPBurger VPN is the recommended one but also read some post from other user that said that they got shutdown/suspended also with those and others said that VPNs are no longer "accepted" on Etsy and becaming a no-no.
It seems that the last alternative would be a mobile IP with a sim card (and not use Etsy payments, just PP as I do not live on a EP country), as a matter of facts some user wrote that they succeed creating the store with mobile IP.

So my question is: If my idea is to get more than 1 Etsy account in the long-term, how do you avoid/control that you would be using the same IP on different accounts another day you log-in?

Any experience or help will be much appreciated, i'm kind of desperate by now.

Thanks!

VPNs no longer work as a general rule.

Thanks, so that would be a big NO-NO for IPBurger also, right?. What about VPS? I dont know much about how a VPS works or make it work. Is similar as a VPN?

VPS is a no-no as you're sharing resources with hundreds or thousands of others.
The closest thing you can get to success is a sending in your own box to be hosted with a Dedicated IP for each etsy account.
Whether you get a good or bad IP is another matter entirely.

I am using a VPN from IPBurger for 3 years now on et sy and no problems.
I am using the fresh/unused one.
