Frequently Asked Questions


Why do the prices returned by the AliExpress API not match the prices shown on the website?

There are several reasons why there may be differences in prices. Here are some of them:

  • 1. If the products have VAT, the AliExpress API returns prices with VAT included, while on the website they are shown without VAT (until the payment is made, at which point the VAT appears).

  • 2. If the products have multiple prices, the AliExpress API returns only one of them, usually the lowest. On the website, AliExpress shows all possible prices according to the selection of color, size, model, capacity, etc. made by the user. It is important to note that the price returned by the API corresponds to one of the lowest prices the product can have.

  • 3. AliExpress usually updates prices on its website before its API, which can also lead to differences in prices.
In summary, differences in prices may be due to AliExpress updating prices on its website first and then on its API, the API returning prices with VAT included, and the price returned by the API corresponding to one of the lowest prices the product can have.

My task post products at $0.01

Some products may be indicated with a price of $0.01. However, when entering the AliExpress page for this product, a higher price may appear.
These prices are for new customers making their first purchase on AliExpress only. If you want to exclude this type of products from the results, the best option is to add a filter in the automatic task indicating a price higher than this.
