• What Mode do I use?

  • Normal mode is your normal checkout flow, tasks will add to cart and checkout the product

  • Monitor mode is only meant to monitor your desired products and these tasks will notify/ping your running watch tasks (Fast/Normal mode tasks) when the product becomes in stock

• 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?

  • You can use ISPs, DCs or Resis

• What is the Product URL and how do I get them?

  • Head over to Costco and search for the item you'd like to run for. Proceed to copy the URL on the search bar into the URL section. A Costco URL should look like https://www.costco.com/kirkland-signature-create-a-size-paper-towels%2c-2-ply%2c-160-sheets%2c-12-count.product.100234271.html
• What is Monitor Type?

  • ATC will monitor the frontend of Costco via Costco.com

  • API will monitor the backend of Costco before product is in stock on the frontend. Usually API will pick up stock faster but is more intense on your proxies

• What Delays should I use?

  • Monitor Delay: Recommended to use around 5000

  • Checkout Delay: Recommended to use around 1000

  • Reset Delay: Recommended to use around 5000

• What is a good QTY to use?

  • Some items have a 1 qty limit per account and some items may have a 2 qty limit per account. We recommend to ask your cook group if you're unsure what to put for quantity

• What is a Session?

  • This option allows you to select a specific session you'd like to use for this task. Each session has your account login saved making it faster to create tasks
• What is Use Account Address? box?

  • If this box remains toggled off then it'll use your address from your profile for shipping

    • It's recommended to toggle this on so it'll use your default address you have saved in your Costco accounts making this checkout process faster and smoother with less issues

• What is Watch Task? box?

  • Using watch task will help your proxies encounter less proxy bans and less proxy errors overall. Using a watch task essentially means you want your task to rely on other sources to monitor, in this case your monitor mode task will ping the watch task when a restock has happened

    • If you check this box, your task will wait for a monitor mode task to ping it then it'll proceed to add item to cart and checkout

    • If this box is unchecked, your task will monitor the sku, add to cart and checkout
