Why AYCD Demands Residential Proxies — Not Datacenter
AYCD's platform — OneClick, TabSentry, AutoSolve, and Inbox — is built for competitive environments where retailers actively detect and block automation. Nike, Adidas, Supreme, Footlocker, and Shopify-based releases all run aggressive bot detection that instantly flags datacenter IP ranges (AWS, OVH, Hetzner, etc.).
Residential proxies — real IP addresses assigned by ISPs to home users — are the only class of proxy that consistently clears these detection systems. This guide explains which residential proxies are compatible with each AYCD product, what specifications actually matter, and how to configure V-Proxies in each tool.
AYCD Compatibility Requirements: By Product
OneClick (Sneaker Bot)
OneClick is AYCD's bot engine for Nike SNKRS, Adidas Confirmed, Footlocker, Footsites, Supreme, and Shopify. Proxy compatibility requirements:
- Protocol: HTTP/HTTPS (standard residential proxy format)
- Auth: Username:password authentication
- Format:
host:port:user:passorhttp://user:pass@host:port - Type: Rotating residential (fresh IP per task) or sticky residential (same IP per session)
- Session length: 10–60 minutes sticky for checkout flows
- Concurrency: One proxy connection per bot task (unlimited on V-Proxies)
- Geo: Must match the target site's region (US IPs for US drops)
TabSentry (Multi-Browser Automation)
TabSentry isolates each browser session in its own fingerprint. Proxy requirements per session:
- Type: Sticky residential — same IP for the entire browser session duration
- Session length: Match your session length (V-Proxies supports up to 60 min)
- Geo: City-targeted residential to match each profile's location
- Isolation: Each TabSentry profile should use a different sticky IP — never share an IP across profiles
- Protocol: HTTP/HTTPS
V-Proxies lets you generate city-targeted sticky sessions using username parameters: user-country-us-city-los_angeles-session-abc123 — each unique session string maps to a unique sticky IP.
AutoSolve / AutoSolve AI (CAPTCHA Solving)
AutoSolve farms CAPTCHA tokens (reCAPTCHA v2/v3, hCaptcha) proactively so they're available during a drop. Proxy requirements are particularly strict here:
- Must be residential — Google's reCAPTCHA scores IPs based on residential reputation. Datacenter IPs generate unsolvable CAPTCHAs or score too low
- Rotating for continuous token generation — cycle through IPs to avoid per-IP CAPTCHA rate limits
- Geo-matched — CAPTCHA tokens carry geo metadata; tokens farmed on US IPs work best for US drops
- Low latency — AutoSolve needs fast proxy response to farm tokens at scale

Step-by-Step: Setting Up V-Proxies in AYCD OneClick
- Get your V-Proxies credentials — sign up at v-proxies.com/topup or claim your free trial on Discord.
- Generate your proxy list — use the V-Proxies dashboard or API to generate a list of proxy endpoints in your target geo (e.g., US, UK, EU).
- Format your proxies — OneClick accepts proxies in
host:port:username:passwordformat:gate.v-proxies.com:9000:your_user-country-us:your_pass - Import into OneClick — paste the proxy list into OneClick's proxy import field. Set rotation mode based on your task type (rotate per task for ATC, sticky for checkout).
- Test before the drop — run a test task on a lower-priority release to verify proxy connectivity and latency before a major drop.
Step-by-Step: Setting Up V-Proxies in TabSentry
- Create a sticky session endpoint per profile — use unique session strings in your V-Proxies username:
user-country-us-city-new_york-session-profile01 - Configure each browser profile — in TabSentry's profile settings, enter the proxy in HTTP format:
http://user-country-us-city-new_york-session-profile01:pass@gate.v-proxies.com:9000 - Verify geo-match — ensure each profile's proxy city matches the billing address city in that profile's payment info.
- Run an isolation check — open a geo-check site (e.g., whatismyip.com) in each TabSentry session to confirm unique IPs per profile.

Frequently Asked Questions
Are V-Proxies compatible with AYCD OneClick out of the box?
Yes. V-Proxies uses standard HTTP/HTTPS proxy format with username:password authentication — the exact format OneClick accepts. No special configuration needed. Import your V-Proxies list, set your geo-targeting, and run. Full documentation here.
What's the difference between rotating and sticky residential proxies for AYCD?
Rotating residential proxies assign a new IP with each request or connection — ideal for ATC tasks where each bot task should appear as a distinct user. Sticky residential proxies maintain the same IP for a fixed duration (up to 60 minutes on V-Proxies) — required for checkout flows where session continuity is needed across multiple requests. Most AYCD setups use rotating for initial tasks and sticky for checkout. Rotating vs sticky proxies — full guide.
How many GB of proxies do I need for a typical AYCD drop?
It depends on your task count and the site. A Nike SNKRS drop with 50 tasks typically uses 0.5–2 GB. A Shopify Supreme drop with 100 tasks uses 1–3 GB. AYCD AutoSolve CAPTCHA farming for a big drop uses an additional 0.2–0.5 GB. At $0.99/GB, even a major drop costs under $5 in proxy bandwidth — less than a single cup of coffee.
Can I reuse V-Proxies between drops?
Yes. V-Proxies credits never expire. Between drops, your balance sits untouched. You're not paying a monthly fee to maintain access — you simply top up when you need bandwidth and carry over anything unused. This is ideal for the event-driven nature of sneaker releases.
Do I need US residential proxies for AYCD on Nike?
For US Nike SNKRS releases, yes — US residential IPs are strongly preferred. Nike's geo-detection can flag international IPs as suspicious for US-region drops. V-Proxies supports city-level targeting across all major US cities. Use username-country-us-city-atlanta to target a specific US city and match it to your billing profile.
Does AYCD TabSentry support SOCKS5 proxies from V-Proxies?
TabSentry primarily uses HTTP/HTTPS proxies, which V-Proxies fully supports. V-Proxies also supports SOCKS5 if any AYCD tool or integration requires it. The standard HTTP configuration covers all typical TabSentry workflows.
Final Verdict
V-Proxies is the most cost-effective residential proxy fully compatible with AYCD's complete toolset — OneClick, TabSentry, AutoSolve, and Inbox. At $0.99/GB with 84M+ IPs, unlimited concurrency, 60-minute sticky sessions, and city-level targeting, it delivers everything AYCD needs at the lowest price in the market.
