Choose your research workflow

Goal	Run this search	Use the results to
Find acquisition candidates	Filter Flippa by business type and price, then paste the search URL.	Compare asking prices, published profit, and listing links.
Compare a market segment	Use the same filters for a specific niche or asset type.	Review the financial and traffic figures Flippa makes public.
Track a shortlist over time	Schedule the same input in Apify.	Join datasets by listing ID and calculate changes yourself.

This is a search-results scraper. Detail-page enrichment, confidential documents, and automatic change alerts are outside its scope.

From filtered search to spreadsheet

1. Apply your filters on Flippa search.
2. Copy the search URL into Filter by flippa.com/search URL and set Max results.
3. Run the Actor and download the dataset.

Example: collect up to 100 open SaaS listings.

{
  "filter_by_url": "https://flippa.com/search?filter[property_type]=saas&filter[status]=open",
  "max_results": 100
}

Output

Fields depend on what Flippa publishes and can be null or absent. The Actor removes selected search fields, including summary and presentation fields, and flattens all_verifications into verifications. Other public search fields are retained. Verification labels are passed through from Flippa, not independently audited by this Actor.

Pricing

Before October 7, 2026 at 11:10 UTC: $10/month rental, plus Apify platform usage.

From October 7, 2026 at 11:10 UTC: $1 per 1,000 delivered listings ($0.001 each), on every Apify plan. No startup fee or separate platform-usage charge under the new pricing.

Listings delivered	Cost under the new pricing
100	$0.10
500	$0.50
1,000	$1.00
10,000	$10.00

Under event pricing, a run with no delivered listings has no listing charge. Set Apify's maximum total charge to cap event spending. Listings already delivered remain billable if the run later fails. Check the Pricing tab for the applicable terms.

Limits and common questions

Does it scrape listing details or confidential financials? It collects public search results only. It does not visit detail pages or access NDA-protected information.

Why did I get fewer listings than requested? max_results is a ceiling, not a target. The run stops when it reaches that limit, the available search results, or the spending limit under event pricing. Broad searches have reported a capped total of 10,000; narrower filters help divide the results, but do not guarantee a complete marketplace export.

Are duplicates removed? Duplicate listing IDs are skipped within a running process. Separate runs can return the same listings. Search order and listing data can change while a run is in progress.

Do I need to configure a proxy? No. There is no proxy input; the Actor connects directly. Flippa can still rate-limit or block requests.

What happens if a run fails? Rows already saved remain in the dataset. For a new run, use listing IDs to reconcile overlaps. Avoid resurrecting a partially completed paid run: deduplication state is not restored across restarts.

Input reference

All four fields are optional. With no search input, the Actor searches open listings across its default business categories, including websites, SaaS, ecommerce, apps, and services.

Input	How to use it
keyword	A search phrase. A nonempty value overrides the keyword in your search URL.
filter_by_url	One HTTPS Flippa search URL with filters, such as https://flippa.com/search?filter[property_type]=saas. Listing-detail URLs are not supported.
sorting	most_relevant, lowest_price, highest_price, most_recent, ending_soonest, or most_profitable. Omit to keep the URL's sort order.
max_results	A positive integer limiting unique listings saved. The Console suggests 500. Omit from API input for no Actor-imposed result limit.

Custom URLs must use flippa.com/search or www.flippa.com/search. Apply filters on Flippa and copy the resulting search URL; the Actor starts at page 1 and handles pagination. Domain-only listings are not part of the default search.

API, schedules, and support

Use the API tab for generated requests and client examples. Schedule runs in Apify to collect repeated snapshots, then compare listing IDs and values in your own workflow. Change detection is not built into this Actor.

Report a problem through the Issues tab, including the run ID and expected result. This independent Actor is not affiliated with Flippa.
