  • Tools & Utilities
Activates every pending coupon in your PAYBACK account once or several times a day, using headless Chromium and the cookies of a browser session you export yourself. It never types your password and never solves or bypasses bot checks. When a person is needed, it stops and notifies you (Pushover, Telegram, ntfy, Gotify, ... via shoutrrr). **Setup** 1. Log in at payback.de in your desktop browser. 2. Export the cookies with the "Cookie-Editor" extension (Export - JSON). 3. Save them as cookies.json in the data folder of this container. The cookie file grants full access to your PAYBACK account. Treat it like a password. Without it the container keeps running and reports "session expired". **Notifications** There is no web interface; the status is in the container log. You get a notification when the session expires, a bot check appears, the page layout changed or coupons could not be

Health score?A 0-100 score computed nightly from four factors: maintained (40%: recent commits and steady activity), popular (25%: GitHub stars, log scale), easy to install (20%: platforms, install notes, setup guides, Docker image) and light to run (15%: minimum RAM, ARM support). When the source code has been checked, a fifth factor, security check (20%: automated scan for committed secrets, unsafe desktop-app settings, known-vulnerable dependencies and project hygiene; any serious finding caps it at 20), is added. Factors without data are left out and the rest are rescaled.

Common questions

How do I give the container access to my PAYBACK account without entering the password?

Log in in a browser, export the session cookies, and save them as data/cookies.json. The tool uses those cookies and never types your password.

How do I choose when the daemon activates coupons?

Set RUN_AT to the desired time or times. The default is once a day at 04:00.

What happens if PAYBACK presents a bot check?

The run is skipped and the tool does not solve or bypass the check. It notifies you and stops when a person is needed.

What cookie-file permissions are needed in Unraid?

Put cookies.json in the Unraid data folder, such as the default appdata path for payback-coupon-activator. The container runs as nobody:users, so the file must be readable and writable by that user and group.
