Footlocker

Getting Started with Footlocker

Site Info

Footlocker is one of the most known shoe retailers worldwide. They usually drop scheduled at 9 AM local time. They also restock/shockdrop at random times during the day. It's one of the most botted sites so it requires a good setup and a decent amount of resources to run.

Footlocker is known for having a payment processor which causes issues on lots of profiles. Read below for recommended tips in order to avoid issues.

  • Profile: You should input your profile name from your profiles.csv

A Tasks.csv template for Footlocker can be seen below:

Mode

We have three modes for footlocker these are:

NORMAL: This mode should be used on releases and drops where Queue-IT is up.

FAST: This mode should be ONLY used for random restocks or releases where Queue-IT is turned off. This mode will not work when Queue-IT is up.

FAST2: This mode should be used only for Restocks, as it will be the most efficient at catching those. This mode WILL NOT work on products that disallow multiple quantity in the same cart.

We advise to run a mix of both modes even if Queue-IT is turned off for optimal performance.

We will ping when Queue-IT is up and remind you of what modes to run for every drop.

Payment Method

There are different payment methods available for Footlocker:

  • CC: Credit Card

  • IDEAL: Input your bank name like for example: REVOLUT (Only for NL)

  • Sofort: Input your bank name like for example: REVOLUT (Only for DE)

  • FPX: Input FPX

Credit Card payment method is the fastest one but it is possible you have issues with your profiles as their payment processor is hard.

PayPal is NOT supported

Footlocker is a site that requires you to run a decent amount of tasks. A good starting point is about 800 tasks. You should start tasks when Queue-IT goes up or if it doesn't, about 1 minute prior to droptime.

Mode

For initial drops we recommend to run a mix of NORMAL and FAST modes. We will tell you what mode to prioritise depending if Queue-IT is up or not prior to drop time.

For restocks we recommend to run FAST and FAST2 (when product has no quantity limit).

We also recommend running SLEEP mode if you want to monitor for a product that you think will shockdrop.

Proxies

We recommend you to run ISPs and DCs if yours work fine and are unbanned on Footlocker, but you can also run residential proxies. Try to run big pools as bot will rotate trough lots of proxies, and make sure to top-up enough data as Footlocker is a data heavy site.

Keep in mind Queue-IT requires a ReCaptcha solved in order to enter the queue. Make sure to have a provider set in your settings.json.

Common Errors

  • "Your Order Could not be placed": This error is usually due to your profile being rejected by Footlocker. This can be due to your address or card, try tweaking diferent parameters in order to be able to checkout.
