Amazon price scrapers and APIs compared
The short answer: For your own listings, use Amazon's Selling Partner API. For price history, Keepa's API. For current prices and every seller's offer on competitors' products, a scraping API such as ScrapeWise, Bright Data or Oxylabs. Amazon's affiliate product API (PA-API 5) is being replaced by the Creators API and is meant for affiliates, not price monitoring.

Frequently asked questions
Is there a free Amazon price API?
Amazon's Selling Partner API is free for your own listings, and the Creators API is free for eligible affiliates, but neither is meant for monitoring competitors' prices. Paid tools start low; ScrapeWise charges €0.15 per 1,000 Amazon calls.
How do I scrape Amazon prices to Excel?
Use a tool that exports to CSV or Excel. ScrapeWise collects Amazon prices and exports them directly to Excel or CSV.
Can I get Amazon price history?
Yes. Keepa's API specialises in historical prices; scraping tools build history from their own repeated checks.
Does Amazon allow price scraping?
Amazon's terms restrict automated access, and it blocks plain scrapers. Use public data responsibly and check the terms and laws that apply to you.
