Sams Club
Complete guide on our Sams Club module
Our Sam’s Club module supports account based checkout and provides fast monitoring, variant support and smooth task linking between monitor and checkout flows. Because Sam’s Club frequently restocks at random and occasionally requires login verification, Stellar uses IMAP, session based login and watch task pairing to ensure stability and fast ATC. This module is ideal for high demand retail products, Pokémon cards, toys, collectibles and items that restock quietly without warning.
Quick Start (Recommended Setup)
Add your Sam’s Club account under Identities → Sessions → Sam’s Club.
Set email codes as your Sam's Club account’s preferred verification method (SMS does not work for IMAP).
Configure IMAP so Stellar can automatically fetch verification codes (IMAP is required).
Create profiles with billing, shipping and payment details.
Run:
1 Monitor mode task per product
1 Normal mode checkout task per product
For variants, append
?itemNumber=VARIANTto the base URL.Use ISPs + residentials depending on your task types.
Keep delays low (Normal ~1000 ms, Monitor ~5000 ms).
Preliminary Checklist

Proxies
You can use ISP proxies and Residential proxies for Sam’s Club.
Recommended Usage
ISPs
Best for monitoring
Good stability for logging in and low-traffic flows
Residentials
Recommended for majority of checkout tasks
Handle rotation well
Less likely to trigger bans on aggressive endpoints
General Tips
Avoid mixing burned/flagged proxies with fresh ones
Use separate proxy groups for monitoring vs checkout
Test both ISP and resi depending on the item and drop timing
If you need quality proxies, Stella Proxies offers both ISP and Residential options.
Product URL
You can find the Product URLs from your cookgroup or you can copy from Sam’s Club product page directly. Example:
OID (OfferID)
An OfferID (OID) further identifies a specific Sam’s Club offer for an item.
Supplied by your cookgroup
Used for more accurate cart + checkout logic
Helps avoid incorrect listings or mismatched products
If your task supports an OID input field, you will enter it here.
QTY (Quantity)
Check with your cookgroup for limits
Sam’s Club varies by product
Stellar does not auto-adjust if your QTY exceeds site limits
Session
Select which Sam’s Club account to use.
IMAP Session
Select the IMAP configuration you want the task to use.
Login Method
Regular → Normal login
Reset → Task resets your password then logs in
Useful if login issues occur

Retry speed for checkout
Recommended: 1000 ms or lower
Monitoring Delay
Interval at which Monitor Mode checks stock
Recommended: ~5000 ms
Reset Delay
Delay before re-running monitor after detecting stock

Endless Mode
Off → Task stops after successful checkout

Helpful in certain repeat restock scenarios
Limitations

If MultiCart is enabled or required → Skip Cart Clear will NOT work
