CHAPTER 1: INTRODUCTION — WHY AUTOMATION IS THE ONLY PATH TO SCALE​

So you're dreaming of easy money, huh? Picture this: you're relaxing with a beer while some script of your own creation throws around stolen plastic and rakes in the dough. Sounds like a wet dream, right? That's the beauty of automated carding.

No more monkey business copying and pasting card details like some goddamn robot. Forget alt-tabbing between the card list and the store like a junkie juggling chainsaws. Once you've found yourself a store, automating this method is like printing your own money. You just fire up the script, sit back, and watch the profits roll in.

Now, I'm not going to lie and say I invented this. Smart carders have been automating things since the days of the telegraph. But if you're still stuck in the stone age of manual carding, you're just leaving money on the table. Today I'm going to drag you into the 21st century and show you how to automate this method.

ErrorsFrequentMinimal
Profit$50-200/day$500-5,000/day
Time8-12 hours1-2 hours setup

CHAPTER 2: THE FUNDAMENTALS OF AUTOMATION​

2.1. In Simple Terms​

Automation is getting a computer to do the hard work for you. Think of it this way: instead of manually entering card numbers, addresses, and other crap, you write a script that does it all for you. It's like having a digital slave that works 24/7 without complaining or needing a damn coffee break.

2.2. How It Works in Carding​

For carding, this usually means using tools that can mimic human actions on a website. We're talking about a browser manipulation software library like Selenium.

Selenium is like a digital puppeteer for browsers.
You can write code that tells Selenium to open a browser, go to a website, fill out forms, click buttons — basically do everything you'd do manually, but much faster and without your clumsy fingers.

You can even run it headless, meaning the browser will run in the background without ever popping up on your screen. It's like magic, but for criminals.

2.3. Browser Extensions​

GoLess — these are a little easier. You record your actions on a website once, and then GoLess can automatically replay those actions. Think of it as a macro recorder on steroids. It's less flexible than Selenium, but it's easier to set up if you're not technically literate.

2.4. Anti-Detect Browser APIs​

For you advanced bastards, there are some anti-detection browsers that offer APIs that allow you to write scripts and automate everything programmatically. But that's a next-level topic for another time.

2.5. How Automation Bypasses Anti-Fraud​

MethodHow It Works
Headless browserRuns in background, no GUI
Human emulationRandom delays, mouse movements
Proxy rotationEach request from new IP
Different fingerprintsEach profile unique
Random dataDifferent emails, addresses, cards

CHAPTER 4: TARGET SELECTION — WHICH SITES ARE WORTH AUTOMATING​

4.1. What Doesn't Work​

Remember all that stuff I keep blabbering about AI-powered anti-fraud? If there's one thing these systems hate more than scammers, it's automated bots.

They will track you down, especially if you're going to big secure sites. Trying to automate carding on Amazon or something straight off the bat? You'll get flagged and banned pretty quickly.

4.2. What Works​

Site TypeExamplesDifficultyProfit
StreamingSpotify, HBO, NetflixLowMedium
SubscriptionsVarious servicesLowMedium
Small shopsShopify sitesMediumHigh
Digital goodsGift cardsMediumHigh
Gaming servicesSteam, XboxMediumHigh

4.3. Spotify as a Training Target​

For this little guide, we're going to target something a little softer, something... let's say... less secure. Think Spotify. Yes, Spotify. Easy target, decent payout if you scale it.

The beauty of automation is scale.
You won't get rich by clicking on one account at a time. But automate the process, and suddenly you can pump hundreds, even thousands of cards and emails through the system. That's where the real cheddar is.

4.4. How Cheap Account Sellers Do It​

Have you ever wondered how those cheap Spotify, HBO, Netflix account sellers do it? Automation, baby. That's exactly what they do. The only difference is that they often use garbage BIN generators for even thinner margins.

But hey, if you want to go completely stingy and use BIN generators, no one can stop you.

CHAPTER 5: THE ECONOMICS OF AUTOMATION​

5.1. Scale = Profit​

Number of CardsTime (Manual)Time (Auto)Profit
102-3 hours10 minutes$50-100
10020-30 hours1-2 hours$500-1,000
1,000200-300 hours10-20 hours$5,000-10,000
10,0002,000-3,000 hours100-200 hours$50,000-100,000

5.2. Spotify Economics​

ParameterValue
Subscription price$10/mo
Card cost$1-5
Account sale price$3-5
Margin50-80%
ScaleThousands of accounts
Time per account (auto)30-60 seconds

5.3. Profit Calculation​

Example:
  • 1,000 cards × $3 = $3,000 (costs)
  • 1,000 accounts × 30% success = 300 accounts
  • 300 accounts × $5 = $1,500 (revenue)
  • Profit: -$1,500 (with poor material)

With good material:
  • 1,000 cards × $3 = $3,000
  • 1,000 accounts × 60% success = 600 accounts
  • 600 accounts × $5 = $3,000
  • Profit: $0 (break-even)

With excellent material:
  • 1,000 cards × $3 = $3,000
  • 1,000 accounts × 80% success = 800 accounts
  • 800 accounts × $5 = $4,000
  • Profit: $1,000

Conclusion: Automation only pays off with good material and proper setup.

CHAPTER 6: REQUIREMENTS​

6.1. Valid Cards​

You wouldn't suck at carding without cards, right? Even dusty old public cards can work for Spotify, since they're not particularly picky. If you're feeling fancy, you can use BIN to generate cards. It's up to you, Picasso.

Recommendations:
Card TypeSuccess RatePrice
Non-VBVHigh$10-30
PublicMedium$1-5
BIN generatorLowFree
FreshHigh$20-50

6.2. Email Domain (or Free Email Services)​

You have an email domain that can receive all the emails to your address to collect all the emails to subscribe to many Spotify.

Options:

MailnesiaFreeLimited
Gmail + tricksFreeLimits

6.3. Google Sheets Account​

Yes, Google Sheets. We're going to use it to store all your juicy emails and card data.

6.4. Rotating Proxy Service​

This is optional, as for Spotify they tend to time out and continue to reject transactions from IPs with 5 consecutive rejections.

Requirements:
  • Residential
  • IPQS > 80
  • Rotation
  • Region matching

6.5. Equipment​

CHAPTER 7: THE COMPLETE GOLESS SETUP​

Step 1: Google Sheets — Your Carding Center​

  1. Create a new Google Sheet
  2. Name it something interesting, like "TotallyLegitSpotifyAccounts"
  3. In the first row, put these headings:
Code:
email    password    cardno    expmo    expyr    cvv    name    address    city    state    zip    country
  1. Fill this table with your email and card details. One row per card/email combination.
  2. Make sure you fill in all the columns, even if you are not using AVS cards.

Example fill:
emailpasswordcardnoexpmoexpyrcvvnameaddresscitystatezipcountry
test1@yopmail.comPass12341472012345678901226123John Smith123 Main StNew YorkNY10001US

Step 2: Proxy Setup​

  1. Set your browser to use your rotating proxy service
  2. How to do this depends on your proxy provider
  3. If you can't even set up a proxy, you're in the wrong game, buddy.

Step 3: GoLess — Your Automation Assistant​

  1. Go to goless.com and register for a free account
  2. Install the GoLess Chrome extension
  3. Grant browser permissions — just allow it

Step 4: Import Workflow​

  1. Download the workflow I made for lazy carders
  2. Save it as a .json file
  3. In GoLess, click Workflows → Import Workflow
  4. Find the file and import it

Step 5: Google Sheets Connection​

  1. Share your Google Sheet:
  2. Set up the Google Sheet block:
    • In GoLess, open the workflow
    • Find the "Google Sheet" block
    • In the "Google Sheet ID" field, paste the ID from the URL:
    • Code:
      https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/YOUR_SHEET_ID_HERE/edit#gid=0
    • Copy YOUR_SHEET_ID_HERE and paste it into the field
  3. Preview data:
    • Click "Preview Data"
    • Make sure "Use first row as keys" is checked

Step 6: Run the Script​

  1. Click "Start" in GoLess
  2. Now sit back and watch
  3. The browser should automatically open, go to Spotify, create an account, buy a subscription, and save the successful account details to a text file

Step 7: Scale​

  1. Load that Google Sheet with hundreds of cards and emails
  2. Leave it running
  3. Watch the (tiny) profits roll in

CHAPTER 14: WARNINGS AND COMMON PROBLEMS​

14.1. CAPTCHA​

CAPTCHAs are a real pain in the ass when it comes to automation, and they're designed specifically to catch bots like yours. Our workflow includes GoLess's free anti-CAPTCHA solver, which works for basic sites like Spotify.

But if you're getting inundated with CAPTCHAs, it probably means your proxies are garbage. You need reliable residential proxies that will make your traffic look like a real house, not cheap data center excuses.

14.2. Google Sheets Permissions​

Make sure your Google Sheets have the proper permissions (allowing GoLess to access your data without fuss).

14.3. Data Formatting​

Format all numbers as plain text to avoid any crazy data issues.

14.4. Expiration Dates​

Don't forget: your card expiration dates should be split into two fields — month (mm) and year (yy).

14.5. Spotify Limits​

LimitValue
5 rejections from IPTimeout
