How TruffleHunt works
From onboarding to your first deal alert in under five minutes.
Three steps, then you stop opening eBay.
Connect eBay. We walk you through it.
Grab free API keys from eBay's developer site — our wizard shows you every click, and most hunters are done in 3 minutes. The keys are yours alone, so your alerts never queue behind other people's, and we encrypt them before the next page renders.
- 1 account on Hunter, up to 10 on Hunter Pro
- Round-robin or region-affinity auto-rotation
- Per-account quota dashboard in real time
Paste an eBay search URL. We do the rest.
Any eBay search URL — including filters, item-condition codes, regional sites — becomes a TruffleHunt hunt. Add negative keywords, price ranges and seller blocklists. Pick a polling cadence (1m, 5m, 15m, 30m, 1h) and route through a specific eBay account or let auto-rotation handle it.
- 1, 5, 15, 30 minute or 1-hour cadence
- Negative keywords + saved seller blocklists
- Per-hunt notification routing & quiet hours
Your phone pings. Buy. Repeat.
When a new listing matches or a tracked listing drops, TruffleHunt fires a Telegram or Discord message with the photo, total landed cost, seller trust score, and a link that deep-links into the eBay mobile app. On 1-minute polling, that's typically within a minute of the listing going live. Daily digest email if you prefer your dopamine batched.
- One-tap Buy-It-Now app deep links
- Trust filters (skip <95% feedback sellers)
- Quiet hours, batched digests, per-hunt snooze
