How to Use Your LPG Stock Feed

Let’s Play Games supplies a stock feed to our customers that contains a detailed list of all our currently offered products. This is no more than a simple CSV document.

You can find a link to your stock feed under My Stock Feed in the website footer and in the dropdown under My Account.

This stock feed is regenerated daily at midnight.

Do any of these apply to you?
