German Price Tracker

German Price Tracker

Smart Pricing Insights with EAN-Based Scraping - Ideal for sellers in the German market, this scraper eliminates the need for website URLs. Instead, it works with EAN (GTIN) numbers, retrieving real-time pricing data from numerous retailers - empowering businesses with accurate market analysis for smarter pricing decisions.

How it works

This scraper simplifies price comparison for sellers in the German market.

✅ Input EAN (GTIN) Numbers instead of manually collecting website links.
✅ Automated Price Retrieval gathers real-time seller prices from multiple sources.
✅ Comprehensive Market Insights help businesses optimize pricing strategies efficiently.

Getting Started

Entering EAN Numbers

In the "EAN Numbers for Categories" section, paste EAN (GTIN) numbers, separated by:

• A space (8806084530097 8806095398655 8806095474939 8806084497697)
• A comma (8806084530097,8806095398655,8806095474939,8806084497697)
• A comma and space (8806084530097, 8806095398655, 8806095474939, 8806084497697)

⚠ Important: Don't put a comma after the last EAN number.

Defining Categories

In the "Category Names" section, enter the names of product categories (e.g., TVs, Smartphones, etc.). Each category name matches the EAN numbers entered in the respective field above.

Grouping EAN Numbers

• Creating multiple category fields is optional - you can group EANs by category if needed.
• If you don't want to name categories, just enter at least one character in a single "Category Names" input field (e.g., " " or "/").

Navigating the Input Fields

The EAN Numbers input field is just a single line, so when you paste a long list of numbers, you may not see them all. Don't worry - every EAN is there. Click "Bulk Edit" or "JSON" to review the full list.

Starting the Scraper

Once your product list is ready:
✅ Click "Save" to store the input.
✅ Click "Start" to begin price scraping.

This setup lets you efficiently retrieve real-time pricing data. 🚀
