Introduction: Beat Purchase Limits with Smart Tweaks
Jigging—subtly altering your address, name, email, or phone—helps resellers bypass single-order limits set by retailers like Nike, Adidas, Supreme, and LEGO.
What is Jigging & Why It Matters
Address jigging tweaks one home address slightly (e.g., adding “APT 5” or random letters/digits) to appear as unique for each order.
It’s used with bots, proxies, and varied credentials to outsmart systems that flag repeat buyers.
How to Jig Addresses & Other Details
Effective jigging involves multiple elements:
Address jigs: add letters/numbers before house number (“xyz 123 Elm St”), use abbreviations (“Rd.” vs “Road”), insert fake apt/floor info, mix commas/spaces, or extend zip codes.
Name jigs: misspell first/last name or use nicknames while keeping ID-consistent.
Email jigs: use unique Gmail aliases or catch-all domain addresses.
Phone jigs: swap numbers with matching area codes; use verification services if needed.
Card jigs: use different virtual or physical cards per profile.
IP jigs: combine proxies or rotating residential IPs with jigged addresses for full anonymity.
Real Techniques from the Botting Community
Redditors share practical jigging tips:
“add three random digits before your street number ex: xyz 123 NW 77 ave…etc”
“you can also add … ‘Unit #123’ … etc, etc”
These matched real-world tactics used by shoebotters.
Why It Matters for Resellers
Bypasses restrictions: Enables securing multiple items per drop.
Scales profiling: Using jigged identities helps mask bot activity.
Fraud detection counterplay: Retailers monitor duplicate shipping details and flag misuse.
Tools & Detection Defenses
Automated jigging tools like AYCD Profile Builder generate bulk profiles.
Anti-fraud APIs (e.g. Antijig, RapidAPI) detect jigged address patterns using AI.
Retailer responses: Businesses use heuristics, geocoding, and audits to combat address jigging.
Final Tips for Safe Jigging
Be subtle: Minor, consistent changes work best; avoid wild inaccuracies that hamper delivery.
Stay consistent per profile: Match name/email/address/phone/IP/card across each profile.
Monitor orders: Check for cancellations flagged by retailer systems.
Use quality tools: Combine jigging with proxies, bots, and address generators for best results.
Conclusion
Jigging addresses is a crucial resale strategy to bypass purchase limits—but it requires consistent profiles, careful tweaks, and awareness of anti-fraud defenses to stay ahead.
