## Pricing

from $2.20 / 1,000 price checks

This Actor is paid per event. You are not charged for the Apify platform usage, but only a fixed price for specific events.
Since this Actor supports Apify Store discounts, the price gets lower the higher subscription plan you have.

## What's an Apify Actor?

An Actor is a serverless cloud program that runs on the Apify platform. It has two run modes.
In Batch mode, an Actor accepts a well-defined JSON input, performs an action which can take anything from a few seconds to a few hours,
and optionally produces a well-defined JSON output, datasets with results, or files in key-value store.
In Standby mode, an Actor provides a web server which can be used as a website, API, or an MCP server.

Apify vocabulary and the platform model are defined once, in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md.

## How to integrate an Actor?

If asked about integration, you help developers integrate Actors into their projects.
You adapt to their stack and deliver integrations that are safe, well-documented, and production-ready.

Do not guess an integration path. Every one of them is in the agent quickstart at https://apify.com/agents.md: the Apify MCP server, Agent Skills with the Apify CLI, the JavaScript and Python clients, the REST API, and the account-free path for an agent with no human to sign in. It also carries the rule on stating cost before the first paid run.

For examples already wired to this Actor's own input schema, see the [API](#api) section below.

Each client library has reference documentation the quickstart does not restate: [JavaScript/TypeScript](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/js/docs.md) (`npm install apify-client`) and [Python](https://docs.apify.com/api/client/python/docs.md) (`pip install apify-client`).

## Idealo Price Scraper – Shop Offers in 6 European Markets

> **TubeText** · E-commerce & travel · Pay per result. No login. Ready for AI agents. [All tools](https://apify.com/tubetext)

### Quick start (no coding)

![Idealo Price Scraper quick start: click Try for free, paste your input, click Start, export to Excel](https://raw.githubusercontent.com/LMSlay/tubetext-assets/main/idealo-quickstart.gif)

1. Click **Try for free** at the top of this page. A free Apify account is enough – it includes monthly credit.
2. In **Products**, paste idealo product links (or use **Search keywords**), then tick the **Markets** to check – Germany, Austria, France, Italy, Spain, UK.
3. Click **Start**. Usually about a minute for a few products in several markets.
4. When it says **Succeeded**, open the **Output** tab and click **Export** → **Excel** (or CSV). One summary row per product and market (lowest, median and highest price, cheapest shop, number of shops) plus one row per shop offer.

**Cost:** $0.003 per product per market, all offers included – 10 products × 6 markets ≈ $0.18.

**Common mistakes**

- Only one country came back → tick more **Markets**.
- Too many rows → turn off **Offer rows** to keep just the summaries.
- A product isn't sold in a market → you get a free row saying so.

**Questions or problems?** [Open an issue](https://apify.com/tubetext/idealo-price-scraper/issues) (we read every one). **Need a custom version?** Ask in an issue or [email us](mailto:tubettext@gmail.com) – we build it as a private Actor on Apify.

### Use from Claude, Cursor or any MCP client

Add `https://mcp.apify.com?tools=tubetext/idealo-price-scraper` as a remote MCP server and sign in to Apify (Claude: **Settings → Connectors → Add custom connector**). Claude Code:

```bash
claude mcp add --transport http tubetext "https://mcp.apify.com?tools=tubetext/idealo-price-scraper"
```

Then ask, for example: *"Compare all shop offers for this product on idealo in Germany, France and Italy: \[link]"* or *"Find the cheapest price incl. shipping for 'Sony WH-1000XM5' in each of the 6 idealo markets."*

🆓 **Free to try:** Apify's free plan includes $5 of usage every month, no credit card needed – enough for about 1,600 product × market checks with this tool.

**What you get** – real output from a test run, shortened. One summary row per product and market (every shop offer as its own row too) – here the same product in several countries:

| Product | Market | Lowest price | Median | Cheapest shop | Offers |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Apple AirPods Pro 2 | idealo.de | 183 EUR | 239 | eBay | 21 |
| Apple AirPods Pro 2 | idealo.at | 183 EUR | 243.75 | eBay.at | 12 |
| Apple AirPods Pro 2 | idealo.fr | 241.03 EUR | 249.99 | fibres-et-cables.… | 10 |
| Apple AirPods Pro 2 | idealo.it | 169.9 EUR | 240.04 | ebay.it | 22 |
| Apple AirPods Pro 2 | idealo.es | 199 EUR | 254.29 | conforama.es | 14 |
| Apple AirPods Pro 2 | idealo.co.uk | 144.99 GBP | 197.99 | a1techdeals.com | 5 |

### Idealo price API for price monitoring

Call it from your back end with the Apify API. One request runs the Actor and returns the rows as JSON:

```bash
curl -X POST "https://api.apify.com/v2/acts/tubetext~idealo-price-scraper/run-sync-get-dataset-items?token=$APIFY_TOKEN" \
  -H 'Content-Type: application/json' -d '{"products":["https://www.idealo.de/preisvergleich/OffersOfProduct/202092559_-airpods-pro-2-apple.html"],"markets":["de","fr","it"],"maxOffersPerMarket":20}'
```

- **Monitoring:** Daily or hourly monitoring: schedule the run with your product list. Each product-market is one billed result with every offer included, so cost doesn't grow with the number of shops. Add an Apify webhook to get notified when each run finishes.
- **Cost at volume:** 1,000 products × 2 markets a day ≈ $6/day at the free-plan price ($0.003 per product-market).
- **Stable output:** field names don't change between runs. Failed or empty items come back as status rows that aren't billed, and every row has `charged: true/false`.
- **Why not the official API:** idealo doesn't offer an open price-data API. Same product ID works across .de, .at, .fr, .it, .es and .co.uk.

Get **price comparison data from idealo**, one of Europe's biggest price comparison sites: **every shop offer for a product** – **shop, price, total incl. shipping, shipping cost, delivery time, shop rating and number of ratings** – plus a **summary per market** (lowest, median and highest price, number of shops, cheapest shop). idealo product IDs are shared across countries, so one run compares the same product in **Germany, Austria, France, Italy, Spain and the UK**. Start from product links, IDs or keywords. Built for brands checking resellers and minimum advertised prices (MAP), retailers and marketplace sellers monitoring competitors, pricing analysts and deal sites. No login. **$3 per 1,000 price checks.**

### What you get

- 💶 **Summary row per product and market** – product name, offers returned, number of shops, lowest / median / highest price, lowest total incl. shipping, cheapest shop and its link
- 🏪 **Offer rows** – position, shop, offer title/variant, price, total incl. shipping, shipping cost, delivery time as shown, shop rating (out of 5) and ratings count, offer link
- 🌍 **6 markets** – idealo.de, .at, .fr, .it, .es (EUR) and .co.uk (GBP) – compare countries for the same product
- 🔎 **By link, ID or keyword** – product links from any idealo market, product IDs, or a keyword search (top results on idealo.de)

### Input example

```json
{
  "products": ["https://www.idealo.de/preisvergleich/OffersOfProduct/202092559_-airpods-pro-2-apple.html", "4247585"],
  "searchQueries": ["dyson v15"],
  "maxProductsPerQuery": 3,
  "markets": ["de", "fr", "uk"],
  "maxOffersPerMarket": 50
}
```

### Output example

Summary row (real data, Oct 2026):

```json
{
  "type": "product",
  "productId": "202092559",
  "productName": "Apple AirPods Pro 2",
  "market": "de",
  "marketSite": "idealo.de",
  "currency": "EUR",
  "offersReturned": 21,
  "shops": 17,
  "minPrice": 183.0,

  "cheapestShop": "eBay"
}
```

Offer row (real data, Oct 2026):

```json
{
  "type": "offer",
  "productName": "Apple AirPods Pro 2",
  "market": "de",
  "position": 2,
  "shopName": "kaufland.de",
  "offerTitle": "Apple AirPods Pro 2 mit USB-C MagSafe Case",
  "price": 190.0,
  "totalPriceWithShipping": 190.0,
  "shippingCost": 0.0,

  "deliveryTime": "Mi. 14.10.–Sa. 17.10.2026",
  "shopRating": 4.5,
  "shopReviews": 56431
}
```

Choose the **Price summary** or **Offers** view when exporting to Excel/CSV.

### Pricing

Pay per event:

- **$3.00 per 1,000 price checks** – one product on one market, with all its offers (up to *Max offers*) and the summary row (cheaper on higher Apify plans: down to $2.20).
- Markets where a product has no offers, products that are not found and failed requests are free. Start fee only $0.00005 per run.

Example: 100 products × 3 markets = 300 price checks ≈ **$0.90**, offers included.

### Tips

- **MAP / reseller monitoring**: list your products' idealo links, schedule a daily run and flag offers below your minimum price (`price` per `shopName`).
- **Cross-border pricing**: pick several markets – the same product ID is checked in every country – and compare `medianPrice` per market.
- **Competitor watch**: sort offer rows by `position` to see who wins the top spot and with what total price.
- **Integrations**: send results to Google Sheets, Slack or your database via Apify integrations, n8n, Make or Zapier, or call the Actor from your own code via the API.

### FAQ

**Is this the official idealo API?** No. The Actor reads idealo's public pages without logging in and is not affiliated with idealo.

**Why do some markets return no offers?** Not every product is sold in every country. Those markets come back as a free `no_offers` row.

**Is the delivery time a date?** It is the text idealo shows (e.g. "Mi. 14.10.–Sa. 17.10.2026"), in the language of the market.

**Are marketplace sellers included?** Offers from marketplaces (eBay, Kaufland, Cdiscount…) are included under the marketplace's name; individual seller names are not collected.

**Can I cap what a run costs?** Yes – set *Maximum cost per run* in the run options. The run stops cleanly when the next price check would go over it, and you are never charged more.
