3. Set your max price
Your max price is the most you are willing to pay per $1 of DIEM face value (equivalently, the minimum discount you require). It is a ceiling, not a bid.
Steps
- Open the max price control. You will see a slider over the 30–80¢ corridor with live supply depth for guidance.
- Pick your ceiling and save.
- From now on, the router clears the cheapest eligible offer at or below your ceiling.
How to choose
| Your max | Result |
|---|---|
| 80¢ (default) | Minimum 20% off; access to all posted supply. |
| 50¢ | Minimum 50% off; only offers ≤ 50¢ are eligible. |
| 30¢ | Strictest; only 30¢ offers clear. |
A lower ceiling means deeper guaranteed discounts but less eligible supply. If nothing is eligible, requests return 503 with the cheapest posted price so you can decide whether to raise your max.
Remember
You are charged the seller's posted ask, not your ceiling. Any surplus below your max is reported as savings, never billed.
