⚠️ CRITICAL WARNING: READ THIS FIRST ⚠️

Creating multiple Vinted accounts violates Vinted’s Terms of Service and carries serious risks. If you don’t follow these steps precisely, both your new account AND your main account may be permanently banned. This guide is for educational purposes only, and you proceed entirely at your own risk.

Vinted’s sophisticated detection systems can identify linked accounts through various methods, and their enforcement has become increasingly strict in 2025. One mistake can cost you both accounts forever.

Why Create a Secondary Vinted Account?

Despite the risks, some resellers choose to operate multiple accounts for legitimate business reasons:

1. Protection from Automated Tool Warnings

Even buyers who purchase manually have reported receiving warnings about “automated tools.” A secondary account protects your main account from potential false flags that could lead to restrictions or bans.

2. Niche Protection

Having separate accounts prevents competitors from easily identifying your buying patterns, niches, and reselling strategies. This keeps your business intelligence private and maintains your competitive advantage.

3. Risk Diversification

If one account faces temporary restrictions or investigations, you can continue operations with the other account, ensuring business continuity.

4. Separate Buying and Selling Accounts

Many users prefer to have one account dedicated solely to buying and another for selling. This separation helps maintain a clean seller profile and prevents mixing purchase history with sales activities.

Essential Requirements: Miss Any Step = Account Ban

1. New Email Address (MANDATORY)

• Create a completely new email address
• Never link this email to your main account in any way
• Avoid similar usernames or patterns

2. New Phone Number (MANDATORY)

• DO NOT use your main account’s phone number
• Recommended solution: Use services like OnOff for virtual phone numbers
• Alternative: Get a new SIM card (not necessary with virtual services)
• Ensure the number can receive SMS for verification
• Never reuse this number for your main account

3. Different Payment Method (MANDATORY)

• NEVER use the same IBAN or bank account
• NEVER use the same PayPal account
• Consider using a different bank entirely
• Some users create separate business accounts for this purpose

4. Different Device (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED)

• Best practice: Use a completely different device (phone, tablet, computer)
• Alternative: Use a different browser (this can work since Vinted doesn’t primarily ban based on IP):
  • Clear all cookies and cache
  • Use incognito/private browsing mode
  • Use different browser entirely (Chrome vs Firefox vs Safari)
  • Still carries some risk, but more viable than previously thought

Step-by-Step Account Creation Process

Step 1: Preparation (Do This First)

1. Secure your new email address
2. Set up your new phone number service
3. Prepare your different payment method
4. If using same device, clear all browser data and use VPN

Step 2: Account Registration

1. Never access both accounts from the same session
2. Create account using your new credentials
3. Complete phone verification immediately
4. Set up completely different profile information
5. Use different profile photo and username style

Step 3: Account Setup

1. Add your different payment method
2. Set up different shipping preferences if possible
3. Create different selling categories/focus
4. Wait a bit before making any purchases (start slowly)

Step 4: Operational Security

1. Maintain different browsing patterns
2. Keep account activities separate and distinct

Red Flags That Trigger Bans

Avoid these common mistakes that immediately expose linked accounts:

• Same payment information
• Same shipping address
• Similar usernames or profile information
• Very similar buying patterns (though this is less critical than other factors)
• Accessing both accounts from same device simultaneously
• Using same product photos (if selling similar items)

Additional Safety Measures

Device Fingerprinting Protection

Modern platforms track device characteristics beyond just IP addresses:

• Screen resolution
• Browser version
• Installed fonts
• Hardware specifications
• Timezone and language settings

Behavioral Patterns (Optional but Recommended)

• Consider varying your activity times
• Use different communication styles
• Focus on different product categories if possible
• Maintain reasonably distinct browsing patterns

Legal and Ethical Considerations

While creating multiple accounts isn’t illegal, it:

• Violates Vinted’s Terms of Service
• Can result in permanent loss of both accounts
• May affect buyer protection and dispute resolution
• Could impact your seller reputation permanently

Consider these risks carefully before proceeding.
