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.

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.
