Two ways to pay, depending on who’s importing.
A dealership pays monthly, priced by the auction sheets it reads. Someone bringing in a car of their own pays once to sign up, with the first car included, and then per car they win. Either way you’re paying for the software. The car, your exporter, shipping, duty and the broker all get paid directly.

Every auction sheet we translate for you uses one sheet. A bid estimate prices a lot against sold auction results and live US dealer listings. That’s more work, so plans include fewer of them. Hunts estimate their strong and partial matches, and you can estimate any other lot yourself. We count a lot once, so the same car turning up in several hunts or on the next run is free.
Run out and nothing stops. Hunts keep searching and listing lots, and new ones wait for their sheet or estimate until the 1st. Or add 500 more sheets for $99 or 50 more bid estimates for $49.

For one person bringing in a JDM car or truck for themselves, in their own name or their LLC’s. How Import my own works →
Import my own
Searching is included for 90 days from sign-up, and again from each car pass. You pay per car, with no monthly fee.
- ✓Up to 3 hunts watching the auctions for your car, included
- ✓100 auction sheets read and 15 bid estimates every 90 days, included
- ✓For each car you win: the customs broker hand-off, US transport, your documents and the car’s landed cost
- ✓Signing up covers your first car. After that, $149 per car you win.
If you haven’t won a car, ask for your sign-up back any time. We suggest giving it 90 days, and you can ask until 30 days after that. We refund your sign-up minus what you used, at retail prices that are currently $0.198 per auction sheet and $0.98 per bid estimate.
Those prices follow the top-up packs, so they can change. The app shows your exact amount before you ask, and asking freezes it. Top-ups you bought aren’t charged again, and they aren’t refunded either. The refund goes back to your original payment method, and your hunts pause until you add a car pass. The guarantee is for anyone who hasn’t won or bought a car since signing up, through us or anywhere else. That’s why we keep a record of every bid you send through the app, and why, when you ask, we search your connected mailbox for win and purchase emails (see the Terms of Service).
You pay for the car, and everything it takes to get it here, to the people who do the work. That’s the auction price and fees to your exporter, ocean freight, duty to US Customs, the broker’s fee and the truck from the port. A rough illustration of those costs →
