We don’t sell unlimited polling.
Nobody can.
eBay’s default Browse API limit is 5,000 calls per developer account per day. With the scheduler’s default two-page ceiling, one single-region 1-minute hunt is estimated at 1,440–2,880 calls/day: roughly 1–3 such hunts per account. At an hourly cadence, the estimate is 24–48 calls/day, or roughly 104–208 hunts per account.
- BYO quota: your eBay account’s usage and reset timing stay visible.
- Hunter Pro pooling: connect up to 10 accounts and let unpinned hunts use the active account with the most quota remaining.
- Honest backoff: exhausted or rate-limited accounts stop sending requests and resume at eBay’s reset time; a hunt pinned to one account waits for that account.
- Track daily eBay API usage and reset timing per account.
- See when the account last polled and how many hunts route through it.
- Review each routed hunt’s cadence and successful polls for the day.
Pricing and account questions.
Can I try it before connecting my own eBay keys?
Yes. Every new account gets one free 48-hour hunt powered by our keys — pick a search and we'll watch eBay live for you. When you're ready for unlimited hunts, connect your own free eBay developer keys.
Is it legal? Will eBay ban my account?
TruffleHunt uses eBay's official Browse API with your developer credentials. Every call counts against the account's published quota. TruffleHunt does not scrape eBay, automate purchases, or authenticate as a buyer.
Can I monitor more than one marketplace?
Yes. The hunt selector supports 24 eBay marketplace regions. Forager and Hunter use one region per hunt; Hunter Pro can search up to 5 regions in one hunt.
What happens to my data if I cancel?
Your snapshots and hunt history stay accessible for 30 days after cancellation, then are permanently purged. Your eBay developer credentials are deleted immediately when you disconnect them. We never resell aggregated data — not anonymized, not bucketed, not ever.
Do you support team workspaces?
Not yet. Each subscription is single-seat. Multi-seat workspaces with role-based access are on the roadmap.
What payment methods do you accept?
Billing runs through Paddle (Merchant of Record), so you'll see TruffleHunt on Paddle's checkout. We accept all major cards, Apple Pay, Google Pay, and SEPA. We don't store card details — Paddle handles PCI compliance and tax across 200+ jurisdictions.
