What are sneaker bots?
Sneaker bots are designed to automate the process of buying limited-edition sneakers. Automation enables sneaker bot operators to complete orders extremely quickly, outpacing human capability. Sneaker bots are used to purchase as many pairs of limited edition sneakers as possible, taking them out of the hands of real customers.
Bot operators take advantage of an eCommerce website’s code to discover what stock is available. Sneaker bots mimic human activity during the purchase process.
