Owner deals: machines offered to you first

How owner deals work: where they appear, what used, recovered and end of batch mean, and how to reserve one with one tap.

Basics

Now and then we have machines to sell at a better price than the shop: a used machine, one we recovered from a site, or the last units of a batch. Owners see these first, on their dashboard, before anyone else.

Where deals appear

• A new deal opens once as a popup when you open your dashboard. Press Not now to close it. It stays on your dashboard after that.
• The Deals for owners card on your dashboard lists every deal that is still open, with its price, how many units are left and when it ends.
• When a new deal is published, we may also email you about it.

What the labels mean

Label	What it means
New	A new machine, offered at a lower price than the shop.
Used	A machine that has mined before. Tested before it is offered.
Recovered	A machine we took back and brought back into service.
End of batch	The last units of a shipment, at the batch price.

Reserve a deal

1. Press Reserve on the deal.
2. Choose how many units you want.
3. Press Reserve again. The units are held for you.
4. We send you the invoice. You pay it the same way as any order. See Pay your hosting invoice.

Good to know: Reserving costs nothing and charges nothing. The first owner to reserve a unit gets it, so a deal with few units can go quickly.

Once the invoice is paid, the machine is installed at the site shown on the deal and appears with your other machines.
