Amazon Deal Tracker Bot — full Python source code for a Telegram bot.

The bot automatically scans Amazon, calculates a Score (0–100) for each product — how good the deal is relative to the market median — and posts the best offers to your Telegram channel and subscribers. Monetization is built in: Telegram Stars subscriptions, a 3-day free trial, and a paywall for free users. The score name and bot brand are configurable with one line in .env (BRAND_NAME) — make it yours.

✨ WHAT THE BOT DOES

• Scrapes Amazon via Apify (domain configurable in .env, defaults to amazon.com)

• Calculates a Score — rates each deal against the median of similar listings

• Auto-posts top deals to your Telegram channel

• Sends personal deal alerts to subscribers

• Monetization via Telegram Stars (no external payment services needed), including /paysupport

• 3-day free trial for new users

• Paywall: free users see only a preview (no price, no link)

• Built-in cost control: daily cap on Apify runs, per-user search limit, scraping only for admins and paying subscribers

• Runs 24/7 with background tasks and auto-restart

• Docker support — one-command deployment

🚀 QUICK START (3 STEPS)

1. Get a bot token from @BotFather

2. Rent the actor on apify.com (the actor is paid, about $29/month at the time of writing — check the current price on the actor's page) and copy your API token

3. Fill in .env and run python main.py or docker compose up

Full instructions are in README.md inside the archive.

💰 APIFY COST (please read before buying)

The bot scrapes Amazon through a paid Apify actor. Apify's free tier is not enough for this actor — you need a separate actor subscription. You pay Apify directly, not me.

Built-in limits protect your budget: a hard cap per run, a daily cap on runs, and scraping is restricted to admins and paying subscribers, so your Apify bill stays predictable.

🎯MONETIZATION

• Paywall for free users

• Admin commands to grant/revoke subscriptions

Income depends on your audience and is not guaranteed.
