Google Shopping Scraper — Real-Time Price & Offer Data by EAN / GTIN

Extract live pricing data from Google Shopping for any product, identified by EAN or GTIN barcode. Get every seller offer — price, shipping, condition, seller identity — across 25+ countries, in one clean JSON output per product.

Products are looked up by EAN/GTIN only. Every product requires a valid EAN/GTIN barcode. Entries without a valid EAN produce an error record.

What It Does

This actor resolves your EAN/GTIN codes against Google Shopping and returns a structured dataset of all seller offers. For each product you submit, you receive the full competitive landscape: who is selling it, at what price, with what shipping cost, and under what conditions.

Data is served from a fresh cache. The first time you request an EAN (or when the cached data is older than 24 hours), the actor triggers a background fetch and returns a free "pending" record asking you to run again in about 1 hour — you are not charged for that. Once the data is ready, the same request returns the full offers and is charged. See Pricing.

Example — Data Being Fetched (Pending, Free)

When you request an EAN that is not yet cached (or whose cached data is stale), the actor triggers a background fetch and returns this free record. Run the actor again for the same EAN in about 1 hour to get the offers.

{
    "ean": "0198376596101",
    "gl": "fr",
    "found": false,
    "status": "pending",
    "message": "Data is being fetched for this product. This request is free of charge. Please run the actor again for this EAN in about 1 hour to retrieve the offers.",
    "retry_after_hours": 1
}

Example — Input Without EAN (Error Record)

Entries that do not contain a valid EAN/GTIN are not processed. Instead, an error record is added to the dataset:

{
    "input": "not-an-ean",
    "error": "EAN is required. Supply a valid EAN/GTIN (8, 12, 13 or 14 digits) for every product."
}

Input Format

Select your target country from the dropdown (default: Netherlands), then enter one EAN/GTIN code per line:

8720648364181
4024074895542
193575000923

Accepted formats: EAN-8 (8 digits), UPC-A (12 digits), EAN-13 (13 digits), GTIN-14 (14 digits). Any entry that is not a valid EAN/GTIN is rejected with an error record in the dataset.

Supported Product Identifiers

EAN / GTIN barcodes — the only supported identifier. Our matching algorithm resolves these against Google Shopping automatically:

• EAN-8 (8 digits)
• UPC-A (12 digits)
• EAN-13 (13 digits, most common in Europe)
• GTIN-14 (14 digits)

Every product must include a valid EAN/GTIN. Entries without one return an error record telling you an EAN is needed.

Item Limits and Plan Tiers

Plan	Limit
Free	20 products per dataset
Paid	Set via ACTOR_MAX_PAID_DATASET_ITEMS environment variable

The actor tracks unique products by EAN. Re-submitting the same identifier in a single run does not count twice. Items already in the dataset from previous runs count toward the limit.

Configuring a paid limit:

1. Apify Console → Your Actor → Settings → Environment variables
2. Add ACTOR_MAX_PAID_DATASET_ITEMS with your desired value (e.g. 5000)

Pricing

You are only charged for records where the offers are actually returned ("found": true).

Data is served from a fresh cache with a 24-hour freshness window:

• Cache hit (found: true) — offers are returned immediately and the lookup is charged.
• Cache miss / stale (found: false, status: "pending") — the actor triggers a background fetch and returns a free pending record. No charge is incurred. Run the actor again for that EAN in about 1 hour to retrieve the offers.

Submitting the same EAN or GTIN repeatedly within the freshness window drives up costs with no additional value. We recommend:

• Caching results on your side and setting a minimum re-query interval (24 hours is a reasonable baseline)
• Re-running only the EANs that came back as "pending", after waiting ~1 hour
• Reviewing your input list for duplicates before each run

Use Cases

Retail price monitoring — track how your products are priced across all Google Shopping sellers in each of your markets. Identify undercutting, map-price violations, and grey-market listings.

Dynamic repricing — feed real-time competitor prices into your repricing engine to stay competitive without eroding margin.

Market entry research — before expanding to a new country, assess the competitive landscape by querying your catalogue against that market's Google Shopping.

Marketplace benchmarking — compare your prices against the lowest and highest offers across multiple sellers to understand your positioning.

Price drop alerts — schedule regular runs and compare lowest_total_price against a stored baseline to trigger alerts when a competitor drops price significantly.
