Our BoxLunch module supports guest checkout only, making it one of the simpler and more straightforward modules in Stellar. BoxLunch typically releases products on a true first come first serve basis with no queue system, meaning speed and clean proxies are key. This module is ideal for collectibles, apparel and limited run exclusives that sell out quickly upon release or during small restocks.

### **Preliminary Checklist**

Before setting up tasks on Boxlunch, make sure you have everything below prepared:

### **Profiles**

> Create and save your checkout [profiles](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/navigating-stellaraio/what-is-the-profiles-tab/how-do-i-add-a-profile) under the **Profiles tab** in Stellar. These contain your billing, shipping and payment info.

### **Proxies**

> * **ISP proxies** – Recommended for some of your tasks
> * **Residential proxies** – Recommended for majority of your tasks
>   * Save both proxy groups under the **Proxies tab** in Stellar.
>     * If you're looking for proxies, check out [Stella Proxies](https://guides.stellaraio.com/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/stella-proxies) for high quality ISP and Residential proxies

#### **Test Task** <a href="#test-task" id="test-task"></a>

> Before big drops, run a **test task** on a random in stock product to confirm your profile, account, proxies and delays are functioning correctly.

#### Task Strategy & Timing <a href="#task-strategy-and-timing" id="task-strategy-and-timing"></a>

**How Many Monitor Tasks Should I Create?**

* Run **1 Monitor task per SKU**.
* You can run multiple Monitor tasks if you want redundancy, but it’s **not required** and usually unnecessary.
* Monitor tasks are lightweight and can run 24/7.

**Recommended:** 1 Monitor task per SKU is sufficient for most users.

***

**How Many Checkout Tasks Per Account?**

* **Strictly 1 checkout task for each SKU per Boxlunch account.**
* Running more than one checkout task on the same account can cause:
  * Account locks
  * Checkout failures
  * Login/session instability

**Rule:** 1 account = 1 checkout task (no exceptions).<br>

### **BoxLunch Task Overview**

**Normal Mode**

**Monitor Mode**

<figure><img src="/files/7huxgGCoeMYGkjwtkZ5z" alt=""><figcaption></figcaption></figure>

* What **Mode** do I use?
  * **Normal mode** uses guest checkout to purchase items, or has the ability to checkout via account checkout
  * **Monitor mode** is used to monitor products on BoxLunch website for restocks. Your Watcher tasks will then notify your Normal tasks when your product restocked
* What does **Profile** mean?
  * Select a **Profile** you want to use and that profile information will be used when checking out items
* What type of **Proxies** should I use?
  * Recommended to run a mix of ISPs and Resis
    * If you're looking for proxies, check out [Stella Proxies](/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/proxies.md) for high quality ISP and Residential proxies&#x20;
* How do I find the **PID**?
  * Go to the product page and at the end of the URL you can find the PID
    * Example:[  ](https://www.adafruit.com/product/50)<https://www.boxlunch.com/product/stranger-things-hellfire-club-raglan-t-shirt/19995072.html>
    * The **PID** is 19995072
* What **Delays** should I use?
  * **Monitor Delays**: We recommend around 5000&#x20;
  * **Checkout Delays**: We recommend around 1000
* What is a good **QTY** to use?
  * It's best to check with your [cookgroup](/stellar/getting-started-with-stellaraio/cook-groups.md) for quantity recommendations as different products may have different purchase limits set by the site
    * Stellar does not automatically adjust the quantity if you set a number higher than what's allowed
* What is **Session**?
  * If you would like to use account checkout, select a [session](#adding-accounts)
* What is the **Watch Task?** checkbox?
  * The **Watch Task** option allows your checkout task (e.g., Normal mode) to work together with a **Monitor mode task**. Here's how it works:

    * If you check this box, your **checkout task** will not monitor for restocks directly. Instead, it will wait for a **Monitor mode task** (with the same SKU) to detect a restock
      * Once the Monitor task detects the restock, it will "ping" the checkout (with the same SKU) task to run. The checkout task will then add the item to your cart and proceed to checkout

    When using the **Watch Task** option:

    1. Start your checkout task. It will display the message: **"Waiting for Monitor Ping."** This means it's ready and set up correctly
    2. When the Monitor task detects a restock, it will automatically trigger the checkout task (with the same SKU) to run

    If you leave the **Watch Task** checkbox **unchecked**, the checkout task will act independently. It will monitor the SKU itself, add the item to your cart, and checkout directly

{% hint style="warning" %}
Using Watch Task is highly recommended for restocks because it allows the Monitor task to do the heavy lifting. This improves performance and helps avoid overloading the site.
{% endhint %}
