Price Tracking
How often do you check prices?
We check prices at least twice daily for all products. Popular products (tracked by many users) get checked more frequently - up to every hour for trending items.
Can I set a target price?
Yes! When tracking a product, you can optionally set a target price. We'll only notify you when the price drops to or below that amount.
Can I track multiple products?
Yes! Track as many products as you want. There's no limit on the number of products you can monitor.
How accurate is the price tracking?
We pull prices directly from Amazon in real-time. The prices you see are exactly what's on Amazon at that moment.
Supported Marketplaces
Which Amazon sites do you support?
We currently support Amazon.com (United States) and Amazon.ca (Canada). More marketplaces coming soon!
Can I track products from different countries?
Yes! You can track products from both Amazon.com and Amazon.ca simultaneously. Just paste the URL and we'll handle the rest.
Do you support other retailers besides Amazon?
Currently, we only support Amazon. We're focusing on being the best Amazon price tracker before expanding to other retailers.
Email Alerts
When will I receive price alerts?
You'll receive an email immediately when we detect a price drop on any product you're tracking.
Can I change my email address?
Currently, you'll need to re-track the product with your new email address. Account management features are coming soon.
How do I stop tracking a product?
Every alert email includes an unsubscribe link. Click it to stop tracking that specific product.
Will you send me spam?
Never! We only send price alerts for products you're tracking. No marketing emails, no data selling, ever.
Technical
What types of Amazon links work?
Any Amazon product link works - full URLs, shortened links (a.co, amzn.to), or just the ASIN/product ID.
Can I track out-of-stock items?
Yes! We'll notify you when out-of-stock items become available again.
Do you track shipping costs?
We track the product price. Shipping costs may vary based on your location and Prime membership.
