Pricing
Pay per result
Bronze tier prices from the tool's listing; higher Apify tiers pay less. Free Apify users get two trial runs with their own input.
Estimated monthly cost
Full price table and worked examples
The Actor uses pay-per-event pricing. You pay for two events:






Event
Price (USD)
When it is charged






run-start
$0.023
Charged when the first request succeeds, even if that request returns nothing. It is not charged when the run fails from the start, or when your spending limit cannot cover it. Each further keyword that is actually searched pays one more start fee: it is charged before that keyword's first request and kept even if that keyword then returns nothing. A further keyword is only searched if the run still needs results to reach maxResults.




result
$0.0048
For each product returned






Worked examples:


    

  • 100 products, one keyword: $0.023 + 100 × $0.0048 = $0.503.
    • 

  • 100 products, two keywords, when the first keyword gives fewer than 100 products: 2 × $0.023 + 100 × $0.0048 = $0.526. If the first keyword already gives 100 products, the second keyword is never searched and the run costs $0.503.
    • 

  • 20 products, one keyword: $0.023 + 20 × $0.0048 = $0.119.

On the free Apify plan you get 2 free trial runs of this Actor with your own input, up to 10 results each, and nothing is charged; after that, runs return a stored sample dataset (a real result of the prefilled input). Use any paid Apify plan for full runs.


You never pay for more than maxResults items, and you are never charged for items that were not delivered. The run also stops by itself if your spending limit is reached.
FAQ
1688.com API questions
Do I need a 1688 account or cookies?
No. You do not need a 1688 account, API keys, proxies or cookies.
Is it legal to scrape 1688?
The Actor returns only public listing data: what anyone sees on a 1688 search page, such as the supplier's company name, shop link and scores. It returns no buyer data and no private data such as phone numbers or messages. You are responsible for how you use the data and for following the laws that apply to you.
How fresh is the data?
Every run fetches the search results live, so prices and counts are what 1688 shows at the time of the run.
Why are some fields empty?
1688 does not show every value for every offer. `province` and `city` are missing for about 10% of products, `offerRepurchaseRate` for about 20%, `businessType` and `salesText` for many, and supplier scores are missing when the supplier has too few orders. Missing values are `null`; empty lists (`tierPrices`, `imageUrls`) are `[]`, and the yes/no flags (`isFactoryVerified`, `isBusinessVerified`, `isAd`) are `false`.
How many results can I get?
Roughly 60 to 150 products per keyword, and up to 5000 per run through `maxResults`. Add related keywords to get more.
Can I search by offer ID, shop or image?
No. The Actor searches by keyword only, in Chinese or English.
