Sneaker bots for UK resellers: prices as shown, compared

We may earn from some links, but here we sort the bots we list by the UK sneaker sites each one names on its own site, and by how you pay. There are no checkout or profit claims, because nobody can verify them.

Some links are referral links. We may earn if you sign up, at no extra cost to you. How we make money

Quick answer

Of the bots we list, Cybersole, BruteAIO and Stellar AIO name the most UK sneaker retailers on their own sites. The cheapest monthly options are BruteAIO (£125, then £40 a month) and Cybersole (£50 a month, but sold through a waitlist). NSB and The Shit Bot bill every 6 months, and Stellar bills annually. Checked 19 Oct 2026.

Before you buy: sneaker bots may breach retailer terms. Orders can be cancelled and accounts or raffle entries blocked. Use at your own risk. Read the risk note

What a sneaker bot does, and doesn't do

A sneaker bot automates the steps of buying a limited release. It watches for stock, adds the item to your basket and submits your saved profile and payment details faster than you could by hand, often across many tasks at once. Most are desktop apps, sometimes with a phone companion app.

It doesn't guarantee anything. Stellar's own FAQ says success "depends on inventory, demand, your setup, and retailer restrictions". Many UK releases also run as raffles or through retailer apps, where a bot may not help. The checkout and profit figures vendors publish are their own, and we don't repeat them.

The bots

Cybersole

Checkout Bots
Waitlist

Cybersole is one of the longest-running AIO bots and prices in pounds. You can't just buy it, though: you join a waitlist. Its FAQ says that if you cancel, "you'll need to be selected from the waitlist again before you can purchase a new subscription", and that 6-month and annual plans are offered "at a reduced rate".

Price as shown
£50 GBP per month, rolling (site FAQ)
Sites named
Nike, JD Sports, Footlocker, Shopify, Pop Mart
Computer
Windows only; no macOS or ARM CPUs; mobile app is a companion
Buying
Waitlist only; if you cancel, you must be selected from the waitlist again

BruteAIO

Checkout BotsUK

BruteAIO is UK-focused and names "25+ sites". Like Cybersole it prices in pounds, with VAT included, and on 19 Oct 2026 it was sold monthly through Whop without a waitlist. Compare it with Stellar in Stellar AIO vs BruteAIO.

Stellar AIO

Checkout Bots

Stellar lists 100+ retailers across the US, Canada, UK, EU and Japan, and says availability varies by region. It's as much a retail and Pokémon bot as a sneaker bot. See HiddenAIO vs Stellar AIO.

NSB (Nike Shoe Bot)

Checkout Bots

NSB is unusually clear about what you'll need: a computer that stays on during drops, proxies for most stores, and the accounts and billing profiles each store needs. It explicitly lists both Apple silicon and Intel Macs. Stellar says Intel Macs work but with limited performance.

$499, renewing every 6 months
Sites named
Nike SNKRS, Foot Locker, Undefeated, Shopify, Amazon and 100+ sites

The Shit Bot

The Shit Bot is built around Nike SNKRS. If SNKRS is your main target, it's the most focused option here. It doesn't name UK high-street sneaker shops such as JD or END. on its homepage.

Price as shown
$399 for a 6-month subscription (homepage FAQ)
Sites named
Nike SNKRS (50+ regions), Adidas Confirmed, Footsites, Levi's, Pokémon Center, Pop Mart

HiddenAIO

What else you need

Proxies

Most setups assign a proxy to each task. See UK proxies for bots for ISP vs residential and prices.

Accounts and profiles

Retailer accounts, delivery addresses and payment cards for each profile. Retailers can link these together, so lots of accounts at one address may be cancelled together.

Release information

Knowing what's dropping, where and whether it's worth it is half the job. That's what UK cook groups are for.

Risks: retailer terms and cancelled orders

Many retailers restrict automated buying and limit quantities per customer. Orders they think broke their rules can be cancelled after you've paid and been charged, and accounts can be closed. Raffles and app-only launches are designed to reduce bot advantage. We haven't quoted individual retailers' terms here, because we haven't verified each one. Read the terms of the shops you target before you run tasks.

How to choose

Our judgementBased on published prices and site lists, not testing.

Monthly, 6-monthly or annual

To try it out, monthly plans let you stop quickly: BruteAIO, HiddenAIO, or Cybersole if you get a waitlist spot. NSB and The Shit Bot commit you for 6 months, and Stellar for a year.

Mac users

NSB (Apple silicon or Intel) or Stellar (macOS 14+, Apple silicon recommended). Cybersole is Windows only.

UK high street vs Nike

For UK sneaker shops (END., Frasers, Office, Footlocker EU), look at BruteAIO and Stellar. For Nike SNKRS, look at The Shit Bot and NSB. More bots are in checkout bots, and every guide is on the guides page.

FAQs

What is the best sneaker bot in the UK?

We don't name one: we haven't tested these bots, and no vendor publishes independently verified success rates. Choose on the UK sites each bot names, how you want to pay (monthly, 6-monthly or annual) and your computer. Cybersole, NSB, The Shit Bot, BruteAIO, Stellar AIO and HiddenAIO are the ones we list.

Which sneaker bots support UK sites like JD and END.?

From their own sites on 19 Oct 2026: Cybersole names JD Sports, Nike, Footlocker and Shopify. BruteAIO names END. Launches, Footlocker EU, BSTN, Frasers, Mesh and Vans. Stellar names Nike, Foot Locker, Frasers, OFFICE, Offspring, New Balance and Shopify. Check each bot's current site list before buying.

How much does a sneaker bot cost per month?

Monthly options as shown on 19 Oct 2026: Cybersole £50 a month (rolling, waitlist), BruteAIO £40 a month after a £125 first payment, and HiddenAIO $49.99 a month. NSB is $499 and The Shit Bot $399 per 6 months, and Stellar is $899 for the first year, then $599 a year.

Is there a sneaker bot for Mac?

Yes. NSB supports Mac (Apple silicon or Intel) and Windows. Stellar supports macOS 14 or later, and recommends Apple silicon. HiddenAIO says Mac support varies by version. Cybersole says it's Windows only.

Do sneaker bots still work in 2026?

The vendors say they do and publish their own checkout figures, but there's no independent data we can point to. Stellar's FAQ says success depends on inventory, demand, setup and retailer restrictions, and that it can't guarantee an order.

Is using a sneaker bot legal in the UK?

Buying and running bot software isn't in itself illegal in the UK, but it can breach retailers' terms, which can lead to cancelled orders, blocked accounts or lost raffle entries. This isn't legal advice.
