3. Select the country you want to search (France, UK, Germany, Italy, Spain, Netherlands, Belgium, Austria, Sweden, Norway, Denmark)
4. Set the maximum number of results you want (default: 100)

Example output

{
    "name": "Apple MacBook Air M3 256 Go",
    "brand": "Apple",
    "price": 1099.00,
    "currency": "EUR",
    "merchant": "Amazon.fr",
    "merchantUrl": "https://fr-go.kelkoogroup.net/sitesearchGo?.ts=1789945951812&offerId=ec9edd7f...",
    "imageUrl": "https://r.kelkoo.com/resize.php?country=fr&merchantId=100570469&...",
    "productUrl": "https://www.kelkoo.fr/gtin/04711474575906",
    "category": null,
    "description": null,
    "url": "https://www.kelkoo.fr/gtin/04711474575906",
    "searchUrl": "https://www.kelkoo.fr/recherche?mots=ordinateur+portable",
    "scrapedAt": "2026-09-21T08:54:56.177Z"
}

Two links per result, and when category and description are null

A row is an offer, not a product. Kelkoo lists several merchants for the same product, so:

• merchantUrl is the offer. It is unique on every row, and it is the link to follow to buy or price-check that specific merchant.
• url and productUrl are the Kelkoo product page. Offers of the same product share it, which is what lets you group them.

category and description are null on search results. A Kelkoo search page carries neither: its only breadcrumb is "Accueil > your search term", and the offer cards have no description text. The actor returns null rather than writing your own search term back to you as a category.

A search with no matches still returns products

Kelkoo never reports an empty search. Ask it for something that does not exist and it answers with a full page of unrelated products instead of nothing. The actor returns what the site returns, so check that results match your query before treating them as matches. A run that returns zero items means the request was blocked or the page could not be read, never that the search was empty.

How much does it cost to scrape Kelkoo?

A run's usage cost only settles after the run reports SUCCEEDED. If you read the dataset while the run is still going, the cost shown against it is not yet settled and will be far lower than the real figure. Wait for the run to finish before reconciling spend.

This Actor uses browser-based scraping (Playwright) with residential proxies for reliable access. Estimated costs on Apify:

Volume	Estimated cost	Time
100 products	~$0.15	~30 seconds
500 products	~$0.60	~2 minutes
1,000 products	~$1.20	~5 minutes
5,000 products	~$5.00	~20 minutes

Costs may vary based on proxy usage and retry rates. The Apify Free plan includes $5/month of platform usage.

Tips for best results

• Use residential proxies -- Kelkoo blocks datacenter IPs. Residential proxies matching the target country are strongly recommended for reliable scraping
• Search in the local language -- Use "ordinateur portable" for France, "Laptop" for Germany, "laptop" for UK/NL. Native-language queries return more results
• Start small -- Test with maxResults: 10 before running large scrapes
• Match proxy to country -- Set apifyProxyCountry to match your selected country for best results
• Schedule regular runs -- Set up scheduled runs for ongoing price monitoring across European markets

Limitations

• Kelkoo has anti-bot protection that requires residential proxies. Datacenter proxies will not work.
• Results are limited by what Kelkoo returns for a given search query. Very niche queries may return fewer results.
• Some country domains may have different page layouts; the Actor handles multiple DOM patterns but debug screenshots are saved if extraction fails.
• Prices are shown as displayed on Kelkoo (TFC -- all fees included, except vehicle filing fees).

FAQ and support

Is it legal to scrape Kelkoo? This Actor extracts publicly available data from Kelkoo websites. Always review and comply with the website's Terms of Service before using.

Why am I getting no results? Make sure you're using residential proxies matching the target country. Kelkoo actively blocks automated requests from datacenter IPs. Check the debug screenshots in the key-value store for more information.

Can I scrape multiple countries at once? Run separate Actor tasks for each country. You can schedule them in parallel on Apify.

How often is Kelkoo data updated? Kelkoo receives merchant feeds throughout the day, so prices are typically current within hours.
