Etsy is a popular online market platform. Merchants use browser plug-ins such as Esty Assistant to facilitate management or save operations. This does help them improve efficiency to a certain extent, but it may also cause multiple accounts of merchants to be unable to operate normally due to illegal operations and low IP security.
This article will introduce the reasons and solutions for Etsy account anomalies, as well as some store operation skills that are necessary for cross-border e-commerce merchants.
1. Why is the account associated? What operations did you do to cause this problem?
Etsy has strict rules for the management of multiple accounts. If the operation is improper, it is easy to cause association between accounts, which in turn affects the normal operation of the store.
The association problem mainly comes from the following aspects:
①Log in to different account store information on the same browser.
This does prevent repeated logins to accounts, but it is easy for the website to identify you as the same device on the same browser, so Etsy can easily identify this account association.
②Multiple accounts operate under the same IP address.
If multiple accounts operate under the same IP address, it is easy to be detected by the Etsy system, thereby triggering association. Therefore, sellers should ensure that each account has an independent IP environment. If you need to configure different IPs for different accounts, it is recommended that you purchase 922S5Proxy static residential proxy, because this IP can be stable online and supports unlimited renewal. You can get a 7-day static residential proxy IP for as low as $3.
③Sell similar or identical products in multiple accounts.
If you sell similar or identical products in multiple accounts and the product information, descriptions, pictures, etc. are too similar, Etsy will determine them as associated accounts. To prevent this, sellers try to set different content for each account to ensure the uniqueness of the product or brand information.
④Use the same payment account to pay for multiple accounts.
Try to use different payment accounts to prevent the same payment account from being used to pay for multiple accounts. It is also easy to cause association between accounts.
