Account Farmer in iGaming — Registers and warms up Facebook, Google and TikTok ad accounts so media buyers have something to run gambling traffic on.

What the role involves

Every major ad platform's moderation cuts gambling traffic, so accounts burn out fast and a team needs a steady supply of new ones. The farmer prepares them by hand or semi-automatically: creates profiles in an anti-detect browser, picks proxies for the geo, builds up cookies, registers the accounts, warms them up, attaches cards and pixels, then hands the finished accounts to the buyers. The work is painstaking and repetitive, but the whole team's spend depends on it: if an account lives one day longer, the campaign has time to pay back. A separate branch of the job farms Apple Developer and Google Play Console accounts for apps.

Responsibilities

  • Register and warm up Facebook, Google and TikTok accounts
  • Set up anti-detect browser profiles and source proxies, SMS numbers and email accounts
  • Attach payment methods, Business Managers and pixels
  • Track account survival rates and work out why accounts get banned
  • Hand accounts over to media buyers and keep track of consumables
  • Test new farming approaches and maintain checklists

How performance is measured

  • Number of ready accounts delivered on time
  • Account survival rate after handover
  • Cost per account
  • Share of accounts banned during warm-up

How to break into the profession

One of the easiest ways into traffic arbitrage: teams hire with no experience from $400 a month with training. After six months of practice a farmer is already in demand.

Working hours: Remote, often with flexible hours or pay per batch of accounts. Some teams with their own farm run office shifts.

Market demand: Farmers are hired by arbitrage teams, in-house acquisition departments and services that sell accounts. Google and TikTok farmers are especially sought after right now, as are specialists in developer accounts for apps.

FAQ

What does a farmer do in traffic arbitrage?

A farmer creates and warms up ad accounts so they pass moderation and last longer. Media buyers then run ads from them.

How much does an account farmer earn?

Beginners are offered from $400 during training, a remote middle earns around $1,000–1,600, and farming leads get from $1,500–2,500 plus bonuses.

Can a farmer grow into a media buyer?

Yes, it's a common path: a farmer already knows why accounts get banned and picks up campaign launches faster.
