Connect SneakerAsk

SneakerAsk is a consignment platform: buyers purchase from SneakerAsk, you ship sold items within 48 hours, and returns go back to SneakerAsk rather than to you. Not a consigner yet? Start with Become a SneakerAsk Consigner — accounts are approved by application, there is no open signup.

How the sign-in works

1. In your SneakerAsk account, open the menu and find your API key. It starts with sak_.
2. In RestocksAIO, go to Settings → Accounts, choose SneakerAsk, and enter your account email and the sak_ key.
3. RestocksAIO verifies the key against SneakerAsk and creates the profile. There is no password login and no cookie import — the key is the credential.

Before you connect

Make sure:

• Your SneakerAsk account is fully set up — personal or business details complete, bank details provided, and your VAT status (VAT-0 or margin) settled with the SneakerAsk team.
• You copied the API key exactly. RestocksAIO rejects keys that don't start with sak_.
• If you rotate the key later, just re-connect the profile with the new key — your profile options are kept, and the fresh key replaces the old one.

What RestocksAIO uses the connection for

• Loading your live SneakerAsk listings into the Listings view alongside every other marketplace.
• Creating listings from inventory you already track, matched against SneakerAsk's catalogue.
• Price monitoring and automatic repricing through Bricker Mode — on both of SneakerAsk's price lanes (see below).
• Detecting sales, feeding them into invoices and analytics, and marking sold orders as packed from the Unconfirmed Sales view.

Two price lanes

SneakerAsk sells each size two ways: the standard price, and a 48-hour express option where buyers pay more for fast delivery. These are different markets with different competition, and RestocksAIO prices them separately — a listing that is not the cheapest on the standard lane can still be winning the express lane.

Your ask is your payout: SneakerAsk charges no fee on top of the consigner price.

Multi-unit listings

A single SneakerAsk listing can hold several units of the same size. RestocksAIO expands that into one row per unit: a sale or a manual delete lowers the quantity and only removes the listing when the last unit goes. The price is shared — editing the store price on any row updates every unit of that listing.

Troubleshooting

The connection is rejected immediately. The key is wrong or was regenerated in SneakerAsk after you copied it. Keys are shown in your SneakerAsk account menu — copy the current one and re-connect.

A listing shows a blank or odd size. SneakerAsk sizes are plain text on their side — EU numbers for shoes, letters for apparel, and a single one-size token for collectibles. RestocksAIO reads them all; if a size still looks wrong, the product is likely mis-categorized on SneakerAsk's side and their team can fix it.

A sale appears on SneakerAsk but not in RestocksAIO yet. Sales are picked up on the next sync cycle. If it never appears, check that the profile's connection is still valid under Settings → Accounts.
