# Our inside information

The most important thing we’ve been told is this: Being active on the Nike and SNKRS app doesn’t really do as much as you might think. It does improve your odds, but only slightly so. The most important factor is purchases. It’s kind of pay to play but still no guarantee to get Exclusive Access. This makes sense though. The only REAL way for Nike to verify if an account is an actual human is if it has purchases.

There’s no way bot users will create 100’s of accounts that all have purchases. Another hard truth is this, with so many users and (usually) so little stock on Nike and/or SNKRS, even having loads of frequent purchases still doesn’t guarantee you get Exclusive Access. It still only improves your odds.
