Questions people ask
Anything else, ask in the Discord and a staff member will answer.
Is the free tier really free?
Yes. Joining the Discord costs nothing and needs no card. You get online restock alerts, live drop coverage and the community.
What's the difference between Restock Notifications and ACO V3?
Restock Notifications ($2.99/month) tells you where stock is: in-store inventory lists, location-based info, premium monitors and more TCGs.
ACO V3 ($28.99/month) includes all of that, and we also run automated checkout on your own retailer accounts during drops.
How does ACO work?
You fill out a form for each retailer you want covered. During drops, our checkout software tries to buy on your account using your saved card and address.
Orders are placed in your name at retail price and ship straight to you, just like a manual checkout.
Which retailers does ACO support?
Walmart (up to 5 accounts), Target (up to 3), Pokémon Center (up to 2), Costco (up to 5 memberships) and Sam's Club (up to 5 memberships). Other retailers get restock alerts but not ACO.
Are checkouts guaranteed?
No. Results depend on stock, retailer site changes, bot and proxy issues, and your account. Some drops go well and some don't. We never promise a number of checkouts.
Are there fees per checkout?
No. ACO V3 is a flat monthly price with no per-checkout success fees. You pay the retailer for whatever is bought.
Can ACO put my retailer account at risk?
It can. Target in particular may restrict purchases, and in rare cases ban accounts. New accounts with no order history are much more likely to have orders canceled.
Accounts with past online purchases, ideally 6 months old or more, do best. If you already check out Target without trouble, we don't recommend Target ACO for you.
How many items will ACO buy?
You set your limit on each retailer's form. Most drops are capped at 2 per customer, so we usually aim for 2.
Who can see my ACO information?
Only the owner, Prohzy, has access to the details you submit. It's never shared or sold, and it's deleted when you leave ACO.
How do I cancel?
You can cancel any time from your Whop account. If you leave ACO, we stop all activity on your accounts and delete your information.
