🔎 Why scrape Wongnai?

Wongnai (part of LINE MAN Wongnai) is Thailand's dominant local discovery and restaurant review ecosystem, indexing hundreds of thousands of restaurants, cafés, bars, street-food stalls, bakeries, beauty salons, spas, and hotels across all 77 Thai provinces. A single search for cafe surfaces over 316,000 businesses across ~31,000 pages, making Wongnai one of the richest commercial directories in Southeast Asia.

What makes Wongnai uniquely valuable for B2B sales and market intelligence is that Thai merchants actively publish their direct phone numbers, business emails, LINE Official Account IDs (@line), Facebook pages, and Instagram handles on their listings — channels that global map directories rarely capture in Thailand.

However, Wongnai offers no bulk export, paginates results 12 listings at a time, and protects pages against automated requests. This Wongnai data extractor handles proxy rotation, pagination, category translation, image CDN normalization, and cross-query de-duplication automatically so you get an analysis-ready dataset in minutes.

Key business outcomes

• 🧲 High-converting Thailand B2B lead generation — build targeted prospect lists of Thai restaurants, cafés, bars, and salons complete with phone numbers (~99%), emails (~59%), Facebook pages (~58%), Instagram (~43%), and LINE IDs (~36%).
• 🚚 Food delivery, POS & FinTech merchant onboarding — identify active, high-volume venues by numberOfReviews, numberOfBookmarks, priceRange, and official status across Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, Pattaya, and regional hubs.
• 🍜 Southeast Asia F&B market & competitive research — analyze cuisine saturation, price-tier distribution (101 - 250 baht, 251 - 500 baht), and consumer ratings across Thai districts (เขต/อำเภอ).
• 🗺️ Retail site selection & GIS territory mapping — plot every competitor and neighborhood dining cluster using exact lat / lng coordinates, subDistrict, and district.
• 🏨 Travel, tourism & hospitality enrichment — power multilingual travel apps, hotel concierge guides, and AI trip planners with verified Thai restaurant profiles, opening hours, and high-res CDN photos.

maxItems	integer	0 (prefill 60)	Maximum total businesses to collect across all queries (0 = unlimited).
maxPagesPerQuery	integer	0	Maximum result pages to crawl per query (~12 businesses per page). Set 0 for automatic / unlimited pagination governed by maxItems.

🔁 Pagination & 1,000+ scale

This Wongnai scraper is built to extract everything from a quick 60-venue sample to 1,000–10,000+ Thai business records in a single run:

1. Unlocked maxPagesPerQuery: 0 default: When maxPagesPerQuery is set to 0 (the default), the scraper automatically reads the total available page count (tp) reported by Wongnai for each query and steps through page.number=1, 2, 3… (~12 businesses per page) until maxItems is reached or all pages are exhausted.
2. Honors explicit maxItems > 100 on default runs: Even if you leave queries empty to use the built-in 8-cuisine Thailand mix (cafe, sushi, buffet, ramen, steak, pizza, dessert, seafood), passing maxItems: 1000 will automatically scale across all 8 queries and paginate deep enough to deliver all 1,000 unique businesses.
3. 100% cross-query de-duplication: Businesses that rank for multiple keywords (e.g., both "cafe" and "dessert") are de-duplicated in memory by their numeric Wongnai id, ensuring zero duplicate rows in your output.

---

⚙️ How to use

1. Open the actor in the Apify Console.
2. Enter your queries — type one or more keywords in English or Thai (e.g., cafe, sushi, buffet, ก๋วยเตี๋ยว), or paste custom URLs into searchUrls.
3. Select a region (optional) — pick Bangkok, Chiang Mai, Phuket, Pattaya, or any of the 31 supported destinations, or leave on All Thailand.
4. Set maxItems — e.g., 60 for a quick test, 1000 for a full campaign list, or 0 for unlimited.
5. Click Start — keep the default Residential proxy enabled.
6. Export your dataset — download as CSV, Excel (XLSX), JSON, HTML, or RSS, or connect directly to HubSpot, Google Sheets, Make, Zapier, n8n, or your data warehouse via the Apify API.

💡 Pro tips for Thailand B2B lead generation

• 💬 Prioritize line, facebook, and phone for Thai outreach: In Thailand, B2B decision-makers at restaurants, cafés, and salons respond fastest via LINE Official Accounts (line), Facebook Messenger (facebook), and direct phone calls (phone), alongside email (~59% fill rate).
• 🏙️ Segment by province for regional sales teams: Run separate jobs with region: "1" (Bangkok), region: "373" (Chiang Mai), region: "843" (Phuket), and region: "269" (Chon Buri) so each regional sales rep receives a clean, territory-specific Excel sheet.
• 🔤 Mix English and Thai keywords: Wongnai matches both English (cafe, seafood, massage, spas) and Thai (คาเฟ่, อาหารทะเล, หมูกระทะ, ร้านเสริมสวย) queries. Combining both in queries maximizes recall while automatic ID de-duplication prevents any repeats.

---

❓ FAQ

Do I get phone numbers, emails, and LINE IDs from the search run?

Yes! Unlike platforms that hide contact details behind slow individual detail-page requests, Wongnai includes the full merchant contact block (phone, email, website, facebook, line, instagram) right inside the listing payload — so you get all contact fields at list-scraping speed.

Why is a Residential proxy recommended?

Wongnai protects its directory against datacenter scraping. Keeping Apify's Residential proxy enabled ensures high success rates and uninterrupted pagination.

Are categories returned in English or Thai?

Whenever Wongnai provides an internationalName for a category, the scraper outputs the clean English category label (e.g., "Bakery/Cake", "Coffee Shop/Tea House", "Japanese", "Seafood"), falling back to the Thai label only if an English name is absent.

Do the photo URLs work directly in browsers and spreadsheets?

Yes. Raw Wongnai state data contains template URLs with /p/_-x_/ placeholders that return HTTP 404 if opened directly. Our scraper automatically rewrites every image URL to /p/1920x0/ on img.wongnai.com so every photo link loads a crisp, full-resolution image immediately.

How many businesses can I extract in one run?

With maxPagesPerQuery: 0 (unlimited) and maxItems: 1000 (or 0), you can extract thousands of unique Thai businesses in a single run by combining several keywords or provinces.
