AliExpress Scraper
Scrape AliExpress products by keyword, category or URL: titles, prices, original prices, discounts, ratings, exact orders sold, images, badges, ship-from country and delivery times — up to 60 products per result page, 60 pages per keyword. Turn on product details for the store name, ID and URL, review count, every SKU (variant) with price and stock, specifications and the shipping fee, or add buyer reviews with translations and photos. Choose the ship-to country, currency and language. No login, no API key. Export as JSON, CSV or Excel, or pull the data through the API.
What does AliExpress Scraper do?
AliExpress Scraper reads AliExpress search results, category pages, product pages and reviews and returns clean rows with the same fields every time:
- Keyword search — type keywords such as
wireless earbudsand get the result pages in AliExpress' own order, or sorted by orders or price, with optional min/max price. - Search and category URLs — paste any search result page (filters in the URL are kept)
or category page, e.g.
https://www.aliexpress.com/category/63705/earphones-headphones.html. - Product URLs — paste product pages (
/item/<id>.html, any AliExpress country domain) to get the full product record. - Prices and sales — current price, original (crossed-out) price, discount in percent, currency, the exact number of orders, rating, badges such as "Free shipping", "Choice" and sponsored flags, delivery window and ship-from country.
- Product details (optional) — store name, store ID and URL, seller ID, store country, opening date and followers; review count and wishlist count; stock; all SKUs with their option values (colour, size, ships from), price and stock; specifications; category path; shipping fee, method and delivery days for your ship-to country.
- Reviews (optional) — star rating, review text and its English translation, date,
reviewer country, buyer name as shown on AliExpress, purchased SKU, photos, helpful votes
and shipping method, as separate rows linked by
productId.
Use cases
- Dropshippers and e-commerce sellers — find winning products by orders sold, rating and price, compare suppliers and their stores, and track price changes before you list an item.
- Product researchers and analysts — measure demand for a niche: how many products, which price points, how many orders and how fast delivery is to your country.
- Brands and marketplaces — monitor resellers and copies of your products, their prices, discounts and store names.
- Lead generation — build lists of AliExpress stores selling in a category, with store IDs, URLs, country and follower counts.
- Review mining and quality control — collect reviews with photos and translations to spot defects, sizing problems and shipping complaints before you buy in bulk.
- Data and AI teams — feed titles, specifications, prices and reviews into matching, classification, sentiment or LLM pipelines.
How much does it cost?
You pay only for the results you get (pay-per-event). Duplicates and items over your
maxItems limit are never charged.
| Event | What you pay for | Free plan | Paid plans (from) |
|---|---|---|---|
product | One product row (search, category or product URL; details included when enabled) | $3.00 per 1,000 | $2.00 per 1,000 |
review | One buyer review row | $0.50 per 1,000 | $0.30 per 1,000 |
"Paid plans (from)" is the Gold-and-above price; Bronze ($2.60 / $0.40) and Silver ($2.30 / $0.35) plans sit in between. Apify also charges a tiny actor-start fee ($0.00005 per run). Product details do not cost extra — they only make the run slower.
Worked examples (Free plan prices):
- Niche research — 10 keywords × 2 result pages × 60 products = 1,200 products × $3.00 / 1,000 = $3.60 ($2.40 on Gold and above).
- Review mining — 50 product URLs with 100 reviews each: 50 products × $3.00 / 1,000 + 5,000 reviews × $0.50 / 1,000 = $0.15 + $2.50 = $2.65 ($1.60 on Gold and above).
The Apify Free plan includes $5 monthly credit, enough for about 1,600 products or 10,000 reviews every month.

FAQ
Is it legal to scrape AliExpress?
The scraper only reads pages and data that AliExpress shows to every visitor without logging in; it does not place orders or access accounts. Reviews contain buyer names exactly as AliExpress displays them (usually masked or "AliExpress Shopper"); handle personal data in line with GDPR and your local laws. This actor is not affiliated with or endorsed by AliExpress or Alibaba Group.
Why do product details make the run slower?
Details come from a separate request per product, and AliExpress answers part of these
requests with a captcha. The scraper then switches to a fresh residential IP and tries again
(up to 15 IPs per product, then a second round), so 60 products with details take about 2–3
minutes instead of a few seconds (122 products with details and 452 reviews took 5 minutes in
our test). If a product's details still fail, its search row is kept and the failure is listed
in the run's SUMMARY record.
Do I need proxies?
No setup is needed. The default Apify residential proxy is included in the price. Search, category and review pages also work with the cheaper datacenter proxy (choose "Automatic" in Proxy configuration), but product details then fail more often.
Can I get prices for my country and currency?
Yes. Set Ship to (e.g. DE), Currency (e.g. EUR) and Language. Prices,
shipping fees and delivery times follow the ship-to country, like on the website.
How many products can I get per keyword?
Up to 60 result pages × 60 products = 3,600 per keyword or listing URL (AliExpress' own limit). Use several keywords, price ranges or categories to go beyond.
Why do the prices differ from what I see when logged in?
AliExpress personalises prices: coupons, coins and member prices depend on your account. The scraper sees prices like an anonymous visitor from your ship-to country, which can include new-shopper deals.
Can I track products over time?
Yes. Schedule the actor with the same product URLs or keywords and compare runs by
productId: price, originalPrice, ordersSold, rating and stock show what changed.
Limits
- Up to 3,600 products per keyword, search URL or category URL (60 pages × 60, an AliExpress limit); "newest first" sorting is not offered by AliExpress.
- Store name, store ID/URL, review count, SKUs, specifications and shipping fee need Add
product details (always on for product URLs). A small share of products can still miss
details when AliExpress keeps showing captchas; they are listed in
SUMMARY. - Store pages (all products of one store), product descriptions (long HTML) and question & answer sections are not included.
- Reviews come in AliExpress' default order; filtering by star rating is not available.
- Prices are those an anonymous visitor sees; coupon, coin and member prices are not included.
