How much does it cost to scrape Comparis.ch?

Event	Free plan	Bronze / Silver / Gold
listing-scraped (per listing)	$0.0009	$0.0008
detail-enriched (per listing, only with includeDetails on)	$0.018	$0.015

One listing-scraped event is charged each time a property or vehicle listing is saved to the dataset — you only pay for listings actually returned. With includeDetails off (the default), that's the only charge: about $0.80–$0.90 per 1,000 listings. Turning includeDetails on adds one detail-enriched event per listing whose detail page was successfully fetched — detail pages need an extra page load and more proxy bandwidth per listing, so that event is priced separately rather than raising the cost for everyone. Apify offers a free trial with platform credits, enough to scrape several thousand listings at no cost.

How it works

1. Detects whether your startUrl targets Comparis Immobilien (property) or Comparis Carfinder (vehicles)
2. Opens the results page in a headless browser through Apify Proxy, rotating fingerprint and IP on retry to get past Comparis.ch's bot protection
3. Reads listing data straight from the page's server-rendered data — no fragile CSS-selector scraping
4. Paginates through additional result pages up to max_pages, until results_wanted is reached
5. Optionally opens each listing's detail page for full spec, attribute, and contact enrichment
6. Pushes each listing to the Apify dataset

FAQ

Which Comparis.ch URLs can I use as Start URL? Any property result URL from comparis.ch/immobilien (rent or buy) or any Carfinder URL from comparis.ch/carfinder, including ones with filters applied — location, price range, rooms, make, model, and so on. Just copy the URL from your browser after running the search on Comparis.ch.

What's the difference with includeDetails on vs off? Off (default), you get everything shown on the results page — price, rooms/mileage, address/location, images, description — for just the listing-scraped price. On, the actor also opens each listing's detail page for full specs (main_data/attributes/price_information for property, overview/technical_details/features for vehicles) and richer contact information, which adds one detail-enriched charge per listing (see Pricing). It's best-effort and slower, since Comparis.ch's anti-bot layer occasionally blocks an individual detail page — you're only charged for listings actually enriched.

Why does this scraper recommend a residential proxy? Comparis.ch runs an aggressive anti-bot layer across the entire site. Apify's residential proxy group gives the most reliable results — it's the default in the input schema.

How many listings can I scrape per run? Set results_wanted and max_pages as high as you need. Larger runs use more compute time and proxy bandwidth.

Can I schedule recurring scrapes? Yes. Use Apify scheduling to run daily, weekly, or at any custom interval, and pair it with webhooks or integrations to automate your pipeline.

Can I access the data via API? Yes. Every run produces a dataset accessible via the Apify API — integrate with Python, JavaScript, Google Sheets, Zapier, Make, or any HTTP-capable tool.

Is it legal to scrape Comparis.ch?

This actor extracts publicly available data from Comparis.ch. Scraping public data is generally considered legal based on recent court rulings, including the US Ninth Circuit's decision in hiQ Labs v. LinkedIn. However, you're responsible for ensuring your use of scraped data complies with applicable laws, Comparis.ch's Terms of Service, and data protection regulations including the Swiss FADP and GDPR. Do not use extracted personal or contact data for unsolicited outreach or purposes incompatible with the original collection context. For more information, read Apify's blog post on web scraping legality.
