Flippa Listings: Price, Revenue, Profit Multiple by Search

Turn any Flippa search into rows: price, monthly revenue, monthly profit, profit multiple, type, industry and age for each business or website for sale. Set your filters on flippa.com, paste the search address, and get one clean row per listing. Turn on monitoring and run it on a schedule to get only the listings that are new since your last run, charged per listing and free on a quiet day.

Who uses it: acquirers and flippers who screen new websites, SaaS and ecommerce stores for sale; brokers tracking asking prices and multiples by niche; analysts building a dataset of what small online businesses sell for.

How to use

1. In the Apify Console. Open the actor page and click Start — the searchUrls field is already pre-filled with a working example. Results land in the run's dataset as soon as each item is found.
2. Via the API. Call it directly with a POST request — no Console needed once you have an API token:

   curl "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/accountable_eel~flippa-listing-lookup/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=<YOUR_TOKEN>" \
     -X POST \
     -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
     -d '{"searchUrls":["https://flippa.com/search?filter%5Bproperty_type%5D=website&sort_alias=most_recent"]}'
   

3. On a schedule. Save this actor as an Apify Task with the input you want, then add a Schedule (hourly, daily, weekly) so it runs on its own — no server of your own required.

Input

{
  "searchUrls": [
    "https://flippa.com/search?filter%5Bproperty_type%5D=website&sort_alias=most_recent"
  ]
}

One flippa.com/search URL per line. Set your filters on flippa.com/search (type, industry, price, sort) and paste the address. Flippa ignores a plain keyword in the URL, so use the filters, then narrow further with the keyword filters below. Accepted formats: https://flippa.com/search?filter%5Bproperty_type%5D=website&sort_alias=most_recent, flippa.com/search?filter%5Bproperty_type%5D=saas&sort_alias=most_recent.

Each line is a flippa.com search page (any type, industry, price range or sort you set on Flippa). Up to 250 listings per search come back, fetched 50 per page. Flippa ignores a plain keyword in the address, so use its filters for the niche and the keyword filters on this actor to narrow further. Optional price and profit limits run after the fetch.

Output

One row per listing, for example:

query	found	status	searchSummary	listingCount	truncated	monitorStatus	listings	listingId	name	description	businessType	industry	location	price	currency	priceType	originalPrice	reducedPercent	monthlyRevenue	monthlyProfit	profitMultiple	age	dataVerified	listingChannel	listingUrl	searchUrl	isNew	firstSeenAt	scrapedAt
https://flippa.com/search?filter%5Bproperty_type%5D=website&sort_alias=most_recent	true	OK					<all listings (full list)>											<reduced by (%)>									<is this listing new?>		1970-01-01T00:00:00.000Z

A miss (a bad URL, a page with no listings) comes back as a row with "found": false and is never charged. monthlyRevenue, monthlyProfit, profitMultiple and price are null when Flippa shows N/A — never 0; monthlyProfit can be negative. Seller names and contact details are not collected.

Pricing

• Listing returned: $1.6 per 1,000 listings

Plus a $0.003 start fee per run. Each event above is billed independently, only when it actually returns data — misses (found:false) are never charged.

Example runs

Paste any of these into the Input tab and press Start. All three return rows with no key, no token and no account of your own beyond an Apify login.
