NobleFolkACO

Automated checkout that you pay for only when it works

NobleFolkACO runs automated checkout (ACO) for collectors and resellers of trading card game products. We operate checkout software on your own retail accounts, you pay the retailer directly for your products, and we charge a percentage of the retail price for each item that successfully checks out.

How it works

  1. Step 1

    Join and choose a tier

    Pick a membership based on how many accounts you want us to run per retailer. Membership is billed monthly through Stripe.

  2. Step 2

    Set up your accounts

    You provide the retail accounts, shipping addresses, and payment methods to use. Orders are placed in your name and paid with your own payment method.

  3. Step 3

    Opt in to drops

    We post upcoming releases. You choose the products and drops you want us to run on your accounts.

  4. Step 4

    Pay per success

    After a drop we invoice a success fee, a percentage of retail price, for each item that checked out. Pay by ACH bank transfer or card through Stripe.

Sites we run on

    Supported sites depend on our current checkout software and may change. Retailer names are trademarks of their respective owners. NobleFolkACO is not affiliated with or endorsed by any retailer listed.

    Membership tiers

    Your tier sets the maximum number of accounts we run for you on each retailer. The same limit applies on every retailer you use. Success fees are a percentage of each item's retail price, before tax and shipping.

    New members: your first successful item is free. We waive the success fee on one item from your first drop with a successful checkout.

    Need more than 250 accounts per retailer? Contact us for a custom plan.

    Fees are for our checkout service only. Product prices, tax, and shipping are charged by the retailer to your own payment method.

    Success fees are invoiced after each drop and are due within 48 hours. For preorders, 50% of the success fee is due within 48 hours of checkout and the other 50% is due on the official release date. Membership renews monthly and can be cancelled at any time, effective at the end of the current billing period. See the Terms of Service and Refund Policy.

    Frequently asked questions

    What is automated checkout (ACO)?

    ACO is a service where a provider runs checkout software on a customer's own retail accounts during product releases. The customer owns the accounts and pays for their orders directly.

    Which retailers do you support?

    We support any website our current checkout software supports. Each drop listing shows the retailer before you opt in. Members can request a site that isn't listed through the member portal, or by contacting us until the portal launches.

    What if a retailer cancels my order?

    If a retailer cancels an order before it ships, report it within 7 days and we credit or refund the success fee for that item. Details are in the Refund Policy.

    Can retailers restrict my account?

    Retailers set their own purchase limits and policies and may cancel orders or restrict accounts. You accept that risk for the accounts you provide.

    Which payment cards should I use?

    We recommend virtual cards locked to a single merchant with a spending limit. You can pause or close them at any time, which limits your exposure if anything goes wrong. We never collect card details through this website.

    How do preorders work?

    When a preorder checks out, we invoice a deposit of 50% of the success fee, due within 48 hours. The other 50% is invoiced on the item's official release date and is also due within 48 hours.

    How do I change tiers?

    Contact us. Tier changes take effect at the start of your next billing period.
