Lowes

Complete guide on our Lowes module

Our Lowe’s module supports both guest and account based checkout and operates on a true first come first serve system with no queue, making fast monitoring and efficient task setup essential. Because Lowe’s restocks can appear without warning and sell out quickly, Stellar automates account login, carting and checkout flows to help secure high demand items consistently. This module is ideal for tools, appliances, seasonal items and limited retail products that drop or restock abruptly.

Preliminary Checklist

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

• Profiles

Create and save your checkout profiles under the Profiles tab in Stellar. These contain your billing, shipping and payment info.

• Proxies

• High-quality ISP or Residential proxies are required.

• Low-quality or flagged proxies will cause Akamai-related errors.

• For reliable performance, consider using Stella Proxies ISPs or Residentials.

  • If you're looking for proxies, check out Stella Proxies for high quality ISP and Residential proxies.

• Cook Group Access

Optional but recommended. Your cook group can help you find product URLs, SKUs and early restock alerts.

• Test Task

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