## Product Input

{% hint style="info" %}
We recommend using the **OfferID** as your preferred product input. It’s especially effective for Local Monitor tasks since the **OfferID** picks up restocks faster / more efficiently.
{% endhint %}

**ASIN (Example):** `B07D4T2XKB`

You can find the Product ID or the ASIN in the link of the ite&#x6D;**.**

**Example:** <https://www.amazon.com/Crayola-Twistables-Crayons-Exclusive-Stocking/dp/B07D4T2XKB/>

{% hint style="info" %}
If you're running ASIN, keep in mind that it will *not* check out third-party items (i.e. items not sold directly by Amazon.com). If you want to check out third-party items, turn on `Enable Third-Party Checkouts`.&#x20;

![](https://868374352-files.gitbook.io/~/files/v0/b/gitbook-x-prod.appspot.com/o/spaces%2Fsa9hO1wAdcCxan5eSRkU%2Fuploads%2FWt1we1iICyQDN0QhTT2b%2Fimage.png?alt=media\&token=c7dfb19e-d112-46c9-b512-e121bc864408)

The task will only attempt to checkout items sold and shipped by Amazon unless Third-Party Checkouts is enabled.
{% endhint %}

**OfferID (Example):** `NzZH57WN2MaUaNmlqlrNVp28QDUvVSmPw8h21h%2BIN7ngWzux4QW9SDbM4qhDnV0Ir30E7hOBn0u1T6m4n00M%2FHZwe25NVTogoHsiUFTnhNp0kOJw3%2F2QtXpf1bc%2FDlZB1B%2B%2FpDFx%2FKgax70kNdZBCLPV7TyiIdWAwn0S7FgRydzOIgeTCwm2eYyGbm%2B1AOCa`

## US  Modes

{% hint style="info" %}
All modes support ASIN and OfferID as the product input with an exception to the Freebie mode which doesn't require an actual product input. Turbo and Buxbox are very similar in functionality best to run a mix of modes and decide which one is the best for you.
{% endhint %}

* **Human:** This mode follows the standard checkout flow. If you set a quantity higher than what's in stock, it will still attempt to check out whatever is available.
* **Turbo:** This mode skips certain checkout steps for a faster process. However, if you set a quantity higher than what’s available, it won’t complete checkout unless you enable the Max Available Quantity option.\\

  **Additional Notes:** Turbo generally works best with a quantity of 1, since there's almost always at least one unit in stock. For instance, if Amazon loads 5 units but your quantity is 10, checkout will fail.
* **BuyBox:&#x20;**<mark style="color:red;">**We do not recommend using this mode.**</mark> ~~This mode is similar to Turbo however uses a different endpoint.~~&#x20;
* **Freebie:&#x20;**<mark style="color:red;">**This mode is currently not operational.**</mark>  ~~The Freebie mode allows you to hunt for products that are either extremely discounted or entirely free. For the full guide please review the dedicated section for Freebie mode~~ [~~<mark style="color:blue;">**(Click Here)**</mark>~~](https://hayha-bots.gitbook.io/guide-v2/sites/amazon/freebies)~~.~~

## Japan Modes &#x20;

Amazon JP is a slightly different site than Amazon US, and therefore we support different modes for it. At the moment, we do not support Freebies or Warehouse for the JP module.&#x20;

* **Human:** Human Mode checks out items from Amazon.co.jp using two flows. **Turbo** and **BuyBox**. These flows are different ways of checking out on the site.&#x20;

Some accounts behave differently on Turbo and BuyBox modes. For instance, certain accounts are not able to check out with the Turbo mode, and need to fall back to the BuyBox mode. Human Mode will initially attempt to checkout with the Turbo mode. If this fails, it will attempt to check out with the BuyBox mode.

Both ASIN and Offer ID input are accepted. Offer ID is capable of checking out a product much faster than ASIN. However, it is not possible to obtain the Offer ID of an unreleased product, and you must use ASIN.&#x20;

**Turbo:** This mode essentially uses the 1-Click Checkout option on Amazon.

**BuyBox:** This mode is similar to Turbo however uses a different endpoint.&#x20;

{% hint style="warning" %}
If the item is a Pre-Order you will need to run BuyBox mode or else the bot won't succesfully checkout. Alternatively you can run the OfferID if you have it.
{% endhint %}

## **Proxies and Delays**

We recommend using good quality DCs and ISPs. Speed is very important on Amazon especially when botting competitive items. At the same time, make sure to not overuse a specific proxy as Amazon is very restrictive with Proxy Blocks.

Keep in mind while running an OfferID the bot will send an ATC request from your account. Sending too many of these requests from your account can result a soft-ban.&#x20;

***

## Max Price

This field is optional and won't work when using an OfferID.

For Amazon US the price check is in US Dollars no sign needed.

For Amazon JP the price check format is Japanese Yen no sign needed.  &#x20;

***

## Extra Task Options

* **Enable Third-Party Checkouts:** This option will allow you to checkout items sold by third-party sellers on Amazon.&#x20;
* **Loop Checkout:** <mark style="color:red;">**Use this option only if you are 100% confident**</mark>. It will repeatedly check out the same item continuously. If used on the wrong product, it may result in an infinite number of checkouts. Proceed with caution.
* **Max Quantity Available:** This option will attempt to check out the maximum cartable quantity. Some items allow up to 999, but when this setting is enabled, the maximum is capped at 100.
