Topps module requires accounts to checkout. To add your accounts to Shikari, go to the tab and click Add Accounts
. Paste your accounts (email:pass format) in the field and click Save.
In order to login, Shikari tasks match the email of the profile to the email of the account. So make sure your emails match in both accounts and profiles. If you are missing the account or there are multiples of the same account, you will receive errors.
With Topps, there are four ways to monitor a product, by Direct Link, Product ID, Remote, or by SKU.
Direct Link, just copy the entire URL of the item(s) you're wanting to go after and then paste in the
Product Direct Link
labeled input field.
Product ID is a series of numerical or alphanumerical digits that are used to identify a specific product.
We'll provide these beforehand.
Remote is where we'll monitor the product on our end and you will just need to have Checkout tasks with the corresponding SKUs, Product ID, or SKU 2.
We'll notify beforehand what we are monitoring for.
The SKU is a unique number combination used by retailers to identify and track products.
We'll provide these beforehand when the product page is not loaded. Once a product's page is loaded, the SKU will be located at the bottom of the page.
It is recommended to have at least a handful of Watchdogs for best performance.
Delays of 3000-5000 ms are recommended, but see this for instructions on how to set up Watchdog timings for a more efficient way of monitoring.
Watchdogs are required in addition to Checkout tasks.
There are three inputs you can use for Topps Checkout tasks: SKUs, Product ID, or SKU 2. Typically, we have the Product ID but not always the SKU.
SKU 2 is recommended to be used on drops that show up as a Coming Soon page as this
Target Method
is potentially faster.SKU 2 tasks rely on force checkout; once your tasks are on
Waiting for product to be found
, right-click -> force checkout.
You can only run 1 Checkout task per Topps account or you will encounter issues.
ISP proxies are recommended, but sometimes, if Cloudflare is brutal, residentials will be good to have on hand.
Topps tasks need to be preloaded before running, so it is best to preload early.
After preload, you hit start again to get the tasks to display Waiting for Product to Be Found
.
Topps uses Cloudflare as bot protection. Shikari has an automatic solver but sometimes if Cloudflare changes last minute, it can cause issues. Be sure to stay tuned to the Discord for updates on Cloudflare.
Our Topps module will send heartbeats to ensure you have a fresh Cloudflare cookie.
Topps can have payment processor issues. In those cases, it is best to be persistent. You may get charged for it later or have it drop off your card if you get declined or make other errors at checkout.
Topps rate limits billing information, so it is best to not use more than 4 profiles per credit card or zip code. You can jig the last 4 of the zip code like XXXXX-XXXX, or if you have a VCC like Privacy where the billing zip doesnβt matter, you can use fake billing addresses. You should jig names, phone numbers, and addresses for every task.
The Topps (US & UK) modules uses the card on your profile that's in Shikari; if the card you have in your profile is not saved to your Topps account, it will add the card to your account while running the task. The same goes for the address you used.
Clear Task Data
on tasks where you changed any information from what you were using before; otherwise, this will cause the task to use the old information again instead of your new task setup information.
Topps is extremely strict when it comes to checking out; please refer to the pinned message in the #topps-guide channel for more information.
You must match your Watchdog and Checkout tasks by at least one input; more information is available .
Captchas are required to log in to Topps and, in some cases, Cloudflare itself. It is .
Be aware that the time it takes to solve the login varies depending on the provider and can take up to 3 minutes due to Cloudflare. If it goes beyond that, Clear Task Data
and restart the task.
