if I buy a US Etsy seller account and log in on Hidemyacc, should I keep using a US proxy IP, or can I just use my home IP instead? I’ve heard some people say that as long as the IP is from a country Etsy allows, you don’t need to use a proxy.
 
When it comes to Etsy and running a seller account, the primary concern is making sure your account complies with Etsy's policies. Using a proxy is usually recommended to prevent any geo-location discrepancies, especially when you're trying to mask your true location for business reasons.
 
Home IP works sometimes, but I personally wouldn’t risk it for a bought account
 
Where are you located? If your country is not allowed on Etsy, it can be a problem
 
If your IP has been banned then don't but if you use a different IP that isn't connected with an account and you're just running one then it's probably safe to not use one
 
If you bought an Etsy account that was originally created in the US, it’s safest to keep logging in with a US-based IP. Etsy tracks location history, so a sudden jump from a US IP to your home country could trigger a security review or even a hold on the account.


Some people do log in from other allowed countries without issues, but it’s always a gamble. If you want to lower the risk, stick with a stable US proxy or VPN and avoid frequent IP changes so the login pattern looks consistent.

Hi, Do you mind me asking where you bought it, I'm looking to buy one.
 
Etsy can be super picky, due to recent scam things from the sellers. So I would instead buy a dedicated server, an expensive one, and just use that one for the bought Etsy. It still does not make the ban chance equal to 0, but will be much better than gologin + 2$ proxy
 
How do payouts work with a bought account? Does the bank account need to be US-based as well, or are there other options?
 
Chào bạn, bạn có phiền nếu tôi hỏi bạn mua nó ở đâu không? Tôi đang muốn mua một cái.
Bạn đã tìm được thứ gì để mua chưa? Nếu chưa, tôi nghĩ tôi có thể hướng dẫn bạn cách tự làm.
 
Có lẽ có một sàn giao dịch nào đó để mua bán tài khoản Etsy?
Tôi cũng nghĩ vậy, nhưng những nhóm đó có vẻ khá bí mật; có lẽ cần thêm thời gian để tìm hiểu thêm về họ.
 
"Stick with a consistent setup—if the account has been accessed from a US IP, suddenly switching to a different country or residential IP can create trust issues and trigger reviews."
