Walmart GO (US)
Complete guide on our WalmartGO module
Our Walmart module supports account based checkout and is designed to handle Walmart’s frequent queue systems, high bot protection and rapid in stock/out of stock cycling. Walmart drops often involve fast moving restocks, queue placement and heavy anti bot measures, Stellar uses session based logins, cart/ATC automation and monitor to checkout workflows to help secure products consistently. This module is best suited for high demand electronics, collectibles, limited releases and items that commonly restock in small waves.
Quick Start (Recommended Setup)
(For members who want a fast setup without reading everything)
Add your Walmart account under Identities → Sessions
Use Fast Mode for non-queue drops and Normal Mode for queue drops
Run a total of one checkout task per Walmart account
Create multiple (1-3) Monitor Mode tasks for every SKU you want
Run matching Fast Mode or Normal Mode checkout tasks with Watch Task enabled
Use ISP or Residential proxies for monitoring and Residential proxies for checkout
Add OfferID (OID) only if you want forced ATC spam (otherwise leave blank)

Which mode do I use?
Fast mode will preload your information in. This is the fastest checkout mode option and is ideal for non-queue drops and restocks. Strictly one product per task and one task per Walmart account.
Normal mode is normal checkout flow. This checkout task should be used for queue drops and restocks. Strictly one product per task and one task per Walmart account.
Monitor mode allows you to monitor your desired products and these monitor tasks will notify your running checkout tasks (with the same SKU) to ATC and checkout. Strictly one product per task and you can run multiple monitor mode tasks per product.
Login mode is only meant to log into your Walmart account to check account information, check orders, etc.
Reset mode allows you to reset your Walmart account password in the rare occasions your account is locked and password reset is needed
Account Gen mode is used to generate Walmart accounts. You can select the emails from your profiles or use a Catchall
Cancel Membership mode is used to cancel Walmart+ memberships.
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?
ISPs or residential proxies for monitoring and strictly residential proxies for checkout tasks
If you're looking for proxies, check out Stella Proxies for high quality ISP and Residential proxies
What is the SKU and how do I get them?
Look for the item you want to run for. An example link would be https://www.walmart.com/ip/MYNT3D-Professional-Printing-3D-Pen-with-OLED-Display/580726295 and the SKU would be 580726295.
SKUs and other important product information is solely provided from your cookgroup
What is the Offer ID and how do I get them?
The easiest way to get Offer IDs is through Walmart monitors or if your cookgroup has an Offer ID list or product monitors which usually has the OID
You don't need to provide an OID but if you do, Stellar will force spam ATC even though it might be OOS
If you dont want to force spam ATC then leave OID field blank
What Delays should I use?
Monitoring Delay: We recommend to use delays of 5000-9000 depending on the quality of your proxies
It's recommended to have at least one monitor task per product
Reset Delay: 5000 or less
Delay for checkout tasks: 2000 or less
What is a good QTY to use?
It's best to check with your cookgroup 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 the Max Price?
The max price is how much you're willing to pay for an item. Usually, a max price would have to account for an item's retail price, shipping, and tax. A good math equation to use is Retail Price + $10. This is to account for any extra fees. Max price should be set for 1 quantity of the item even if you are running more than 1 quantity. (12 quantity for example!)
What is Allow 3rd Party?
3rd party sellers are authorized to sell products on Walmart.com. These sellers usually have higher than retail prices. If you do not want to monitor these products, leave this blank. If you do want to monitor these products, enable this feature.
What is Session?
Select the Session you'd like to use that you already saved into the bot from the identities tab
What is IMAP Session?
Select the IMAP session you would like to use for your task
What is OTP Input?
When Walmart sends you a OTP, you can either have your IMAP automatically enter the OTP or you can manually enter the OTP in bot
What is Reset Delay?
Amount of time before the monitor will restart after it picks up the SKU when it went into stock. A recommended delay would be 60000. (Time in this field is in ms)
What is the Watch Task? checkbox?
The Watch Task option allows your checkout task (e.g., Shipping 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:
Start your checkout task. It will display the message: "Waiting for Monitor Ping." This means it's ready and set up correctly
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
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.
What is Endless Mode?
If you have this box checked the task will restart after a successful checkout. Ideally you would want to use this if you want to continue purchasing the product until it goes out of stock
If you have this box unchecked the task will stop completely after a successful checkout
What is Endless Limit?
Enter the max number of checkouts with Endless Mode enabled
What is Use Account Address?
Check this box if you want to use the address on the Walmart account otherwise it'll use your profile address for order placement
What is Subscribe to Walmart Plus?
You should only check this box if you want to purchase the WM+ membership
What is Use Rakuten? box?
Follow the Rakuten guide to set it up and check this box to earn cashback on eligible purchases
What is SMS Input?
Walmart requires a 6 digit verification code when creating accounts, you'll need some kind of way to provide this code into the bot. You can select Manually to enter the codes in manually or use a 3rd party service like TextVerified or SMS Activate
Walmart Account Generator Mode Instructions
1. Go to Profiles and make sure you have a profile with an email that is not already registered to a Walmart account.
Make sure that this email is connected to IMAP either directly or forwards to a connected IMAP email account
2. You will then use that profile when making your Walmart account-gen task, select a proxy that is not banned on Walmart. We recommend using residential proxies for this and setting a delay of 5000. You can leave the password section blank.
3. Finally, you will need to verify your Walmart account using a one-time code that needs to be sent to a phone number, as shown by the SMS input part of the task creation.. If you have phone numbers that aren't linked to a Walmart account, you can use those and add them to your profiles. If not, you will need to harvest these codes by using text-verified.
4. Once you have your text-verified api key set up or your phone ready to receive the code, you can run the task.
5. If using text-verified, the bot will automatically go through all the steps for you, and your generated account credentials will show up in your sessions and you will have 50 cents redacted from your text-verified account. If you are using manual verification, a window will pop up for you to enter the code sent to your phone, and then the bot will finish the steps with your generated account credentials will show up in your sessions
Text-verified guide
1. Once you have a profile that is ready to have a Walmart account made with your email, you can go to the settings tab and look under General
2. Next, scroll down to where it says textVerifiedCredentials. This is what we will be using to get the one-time text verification code required for Walmart accounts
3. Click on the link and create an account using an email you have access to
4. Once your account is created, you will navigate to verifications and click on new SMS verification
5. After clicking on New SMS Verification, you will search Walmart and notice it costs 50 cents per verification
6. Next, you will click on the top right corner to add the credits required for the number of accounts you are trying to generate
7. You will then purchase the credits you need, and after doing so, click on the API tab on the bottom left and select configure from the drop-down menu
8. You will then copy your API V2 Key and add it into Stellar in the settings mentioned before in the
Accountemail:apikey format
9. Once you have done this, return to the Walmart account-gen task and make sure to select text-verified as the SMS input for account creation.
