Extract product data, prices across multiple stores, ratings, specifications, and availability from KuantoKusta.pt — Portugal's largest and most popular price comparison website, aggregating offers from 50+ Portuguese online retailers.

What is KuantoKusta Scraper?

KuantoKusta Scraper collects structured product data from KuantoKusta.pt. It searches for products, navigates category pages, follows pagination, and optionally visits individual product detail pages to extract rich data including store-level pricing, specifications, EAN barcodes, ratings, and breadcrumb categories.

KuantoKusta is the go-to price comparison platform in Portugal. With thousands of products across electronics, home appliances, smartphones, fashion, sports, and more, it aggregates prices from retailers like Fnac, Worten, DARTY, MediaMarkt, and dozens of smaller Portuguese shops. Their "desde X" (from X) pricing model shows the lowest available price across all stores.

How to scrape KuantoKusta data

Option 1: Search by keyword

Set searchQuery to any product name or keyword in Portuguese. KuantoKusta supports broad queries.

Examples: "televisao", "smartphone", "aspirador", "portatil", "maquina de cafe", "samsung galaxy"

Option 2: Browse categories

Provide KuantoKusta category URLs. The site uses the pattern /a/{id}/{category-name}:

• https://www.kuantokusta.pt/a/1/informatica — Computers & IT
• https://www.kuantokusta.pt/a/155/smartphones-e-acessorios — Smartphones
• https://www.kuantokusta.pt/a/356/electrodomesticos — Home appliances
• https://www.kuantokusta.pt/a/1469/gaming — Gaming
• https://www.kuantokusta.pt/a/1075/casa-e-decoracao — Home & Decor
• https://www.kuantokusta.pt/a/818/desporto — Sports

Option 3: Direct product URLs

Provide individual product URLs (/p/{id}/{slug}) to scrape specific products with full detail data.

Option 4: Fast listing mode

Set scrapeDetails to false for quick price sweeps. The scraper extracts basic data (name, price, store count, rating) from listing pages only, skipping individual product visits. 5-10x faster.

Input

Field	Type	Default	Description
searchQuery	String	smartphone	Keyword search in Portuguese
categoryUrls	Array	—	Category or product page URLs to scrape
maxResults	Integer	100	Maximum products to return (up to 100,000)
maxPages	Integer	5	Max pagination pages per search/category (~40 products/page)
scrapeDetails	Boolean	true	Visit product pages for full data (slower but richer)
proxyConfiguration	Object	—	Proxy settings for reliability

Tips:

• KuantoKusta has minimal anti-bot protection, but proxies help for large runs.
• Each listing page shows ~40 products. With maxPages: 5, you get up to ~200 products per search.
• For full catalog dumps, increase maxPages to 25+ and set a high maxResults.
• The scrapeDetails toggle controls speed vs depth. Off = faster but basic data only.

FAQ

What is KuantoKusta?

KuantoKusta is Portugal's largest price comparison website. It aggregates product prices from 50+ online Portuguese retailers including Fnac, Worten, DARTY, MediaMarkt, and many smaller shops. The name means "How much does it cost?" in Portuguese.

What does "desde" mean in the prices?

"Desde" means "from" in Portuguese. KuantoKusta shows the lowest available price across all stores that sell the product. When you scrape with scrapeDetails: true, you get individual store prices.

What are the KuantoKusta badges?

KuantoKusta awards badges to products: "Boa compra" (good buy — best value), "Mais vendido" (bestseller — highest sales), and "Favorito clientes" (customer favorite — highest rated). These indicate consumer-validated quality.

Can I get prices from individual stores?

Yes. When scraping with scrapeDetails: true, the product detail pages show individual store offers with prices and shipping costs. The price field always shows the lowest available price.

What product categories does KuantoKusta cover?

Electronics, smartphones, computers, home appliances, gaming, fashion, sports, home decor, beauty, baby products, and more. It covers most consumer product categories available in the Portuguese market.

Limitations

• JavaScript-rendered content — Some dynamic elements may not be captured by the HTTP-only CheerioCrawler. The vast majority of product data is in the static HTML.
• Store-level data — Individual store offers are extracted best from product detail pages (scrapeDetails: true).
• Portuguese market only — KuantoKusta covers the Portuguese market. Prices are in EUR.
• Rate limits — For very large runs (5,000+ products), use Apify proxies and moderate concurrency.
• Category pages — Some category landing pages show featured products rather than full listings. Use search queries for comprehensive results.
