Set up in three steps,
then walk away
There is nothing to install and nothing to keep open. The whole setup is a browser tab, and the longest part is deciding which resource you want first. Here is the entire process.
Step 1 — Add your account
Sign up, then add the Viking Rise account you want run. Credentials are stored encrypted and are used for one thing: signing that account into the game on the cloud device that runs it.
If you are adding several, group them the way you think about them — by kingdom, or by which main city they feed. Fleets get confusing at about the fifth account, and naming them well is the cheapest fix.
- The account has to be playable already. vikingsBot gathers and nothing else — it does not level accounts up for you.
- The in-game tutorial must be finished.
- Chief Hall must be level 6 or higher.
- The world map must be open, so the account can send troops out of the city to gather.
Step 2 — Pick a gathering preset
One choice per account, and you can change it whenever you like:
- Priority — an explicit resource order, for when you know exactly what is blocking your queue.
- Random — spread across resources, to keep balanced stockpiles balanced.
- Lowest first — the account chases whatever it is shortest on. Set it and forget it.
Step 3 — Subscribe, and close the tab
That is the setup done. Subscribe on the Billing tab and the accounts you configured start gathering on their own.
There is no second setup and no migration: once the payment clears, your characters are picked up automatically and keep gathering around the clock.
Two things worth knowing up front. First: automation is against the Viking Rise terms of service, so use accounts whose loss you could live with. Second: do not run vikingsBot on an account you are playing at the same time — two sessions on one account will keep logging each other out.
What it costs
$2 per account per month. No tiers, no setup fee, nothing that costs more as you add accounts. Cancel whenever you want.
A slot added in the middle of a paid period is charged pro rata for the days left, at the same $2 per account. The dashboard always shows what the next payment comes to.
If something goes wrong
There is a support channel in the site footer, staffed by people who work on the service. Ask about accounts, presets, billing or what the bot did on a specific day — the account log is visible to you as well.
Questions, answered.
Can I use vikingsBot right now?
Yes. Register, add your accounts, configure them and subscribe — the bot starts gathering for them straight away.
What do you need from me?
The login details for the Viking Rise accounts you want run, and a gathering preset for each. Nothing is installed on your side and there is no client to configure.
Can I add accounts later?
Yes, at any time. A slot added mid-month is charged pro rata for the days remaining, at whichever rate applies to you.
How do I stop?
Cancel in the dashboard. There is no contract and no notice period — the accounts simply stop being run at the end of what you have paid for.
