Cardmarket Riftbound Trend Scraper

What does Cardmarket Riftbound Trend Scraper do?

This Actor scrapes trending Riftbound (League of Legends TCG) cards from Cardmarket — Europe's largest trading-card marketplace. It supports both the Weekly Top Cards ranking and the Best Bargains list. Each result includes the card name, expansion, current EUR price and a direct product URL.

Run it once from the Apify Console to try it, or call it from the Apify API on any schedule, route the dataset into your warehouse, BI tool, or webhook — and let Apify handle proxy rotation and retries automatically.

Why use Cardmarket Riftbound Trend Scraper?

• First-mover advantage on a fresh TCG — Riftbound is Riot Games' brand-new League of Legends card game; price discovery is still volatile and the arbitrage window is wide.
• Spot price spikes early — react to which Riftbound cards are pumping this week before your competitors do.
• Source bargains — surface cards trading well under their historical trend.
• Power dashboards & alerts — pipe structured JSON into Google Sheets, Airtable, Slack or your own backend.
• No bot-detection headaches — Apify's residential proxy network handles Cardmarket's Cloudflare challenge for you.

Image hotlinking — important

Cardmarket's image CDN is fronted by CloudFront with hotlink protection. Loading imageUrl directly returns HTTP 403 — the image only resolves when the request includes a Referer header set to a Cardmarket domain.

• ✅ Server-side fetching (curl, fetch, ETL) with Referer: https://www.cardmarket.com/
• ✅ Make / Zapier / n8n HTTP modules with custom Referer header
• ❌ Direct embed in Notion, Airtable image columns, browser tab

FAQ, disclaimers and support

Is scraping Cardmarket legal? This Actor extracts only publicly visible price information; you remain responsible for complying with Cardmarket's Terms of Service and any applicable laws.

My run got blocked / returned 0 rows. Cardmarket sits behind Cloudflare. Make sure proxyConfiguration uses the RESIDENTIAL group (the default). If issues persist, enable debugSaveHtml: true and inspect the dump. If Cardmarket changes the Riftbound URL slug (this is a brand-new TCG, the slug may evolve), report it via the Issues tab.
