Live Stock Verification Methodology
Our deals are sourced from an automated monitoring system that polls each provider’s API or public inventory page every hour. When a plan shows “in_stock” we record the exact price, specifications, and timestamp. Stale listings are removed if they appear out of stock for two consecutive checks. This hourly verification prevents you from signing up for a plan that has already sold out or whose price has changed, saving both time and money.
