In cross-border e-commerce, pricing is the core of competitiveness.
Whether you run a Shopify, WooCommerce, Amazon, or eBay store, tracking your competitors’ prices and adjusting your own strategy in time is key to winning the market.
Common Challenges for Sellers
- IP blocking and risk control — Frequent price scraping may trigger anti-bot systems or IP bans.
- Multi-region price tracking — Prices differ across countries, requiring simulation of multiple locations.
- Data accuracy and timeliness — Unstable proxies can cause delays and inaccurate pricing data.
To solve these issues, I combined Pricefy with OkkProxy, and the results were impressive.
1. Pricefy — Comprehensive Competitor Price Monitoring
Pricefy is a powerful price tracking tool designed for small to medium-sized online stores. Its features include:
- Competitor price tracking across platforms and regions.
- Real-time alerts for price changes (increase or decrease).
- Data visualization via charts and reports to identify trends quickly.
With Pricefy, you can build your own competitor price database, monitor market movements, and make informed pricing decisions.
2. OkkProxy — Stable Residential IPs for Safe Data Collection
When scraping competitor prices, regular datacenter IPs are easily blocked.
OkkProxy solves this problem by offering residential IPs with:
- Low ban risk — IPs come from real household networks, seen as legitimate traffic.
- Global coverage — Supports nodes across the US, Europe, and Asia for multi-region monitoring.
- High reliability — Long uptime and stable connection ensure consistent scraping results.
Routing your Pricefy requests through OkkProxy’s residential IPs greatly improves data accuracy and stability.
3. Setup Guide
- Sign up for Pricefy and add competitor products/platforms.
- Purchase residential IPs from OkkProxy, selecting your target country node.
- Configure the proxy (IP, port, username, password) in your fingerprint browser.
- Run test scrapes to confirm data accuracy and location matching.
- Enable price change alerts to get notified in real time.
💡 Tip: Use separate proxy nodes for each country to keep data authentic and avoid IP restrictions.
