Somewhere a rival has just dropped the price on a product you also sell, and you will find out days later, if at all. 4pricing.net is a price tracker for UK online retailers. Add the product pages of the shops you compete with, choose how often each one is checked (from every hour), and get an alert at the first check that catches a change.
4pricing checks the prices on the competitor shops you add by URL — for example Amazon UK, Argos, Currys or John Lewis — for the products you choose, from every hour upward. You get an alert on the first check that catches a change, the price history is kept, and an algorithm (not generative AI) calculates a recommended price. You decide what to change in your own shop.
On top of monitoring, 4pricing prepares a briefing every day: what moved at your competitors, where you can raise a price without losing your position, where your margin is thinning and what is worth doing first. Every finding comes with the evidence it was built from and, where there is a basis for it, an estimated monthly value.
Your price changes only when you apply it manually, and the webhook goes only to the destination you set.
4pricing gives you the data through a REST API (with API keys), an alert webhook and a CSV or Excel export. There are no ready-made connectors for ERP, warehouse systems or marketplaces: what happens with the data is built by your own team or developers.
All data collected by 4pricing is available with API keys through a documented REST API: the current price of each competitor per product, the complete price history and the recommended price calculated by an algorithm.
The signed webhook sends an HTTP notification on alerts. 4pricing does not write prices into your shop or your ERP: you apply the recommended price yourself, manually. There are no ready-made connectors.
You add products and competitor shops by pasting the product-page URL, one link at a time.
CSV or Excel export runs on demand, in one click from the dashboard, with the complete price history. If you need a fixed cadence, call the same export from the REST API and schedule it yourself.
4pricing tracks the price shown on Amazon UK, Argos or Currys like any other shop on your list and places it next to the rest of your competitors on the same product. When a competitor undercuts you, or when you are no longer the cheapest among the monitored shops, the alert reaches you at the first check that catches the change, together with the recommended price to get back in front.
You choose the shops: add any online shop by product URL — John Lewis, AO.com or eBay UK are only examples — and set a different check interval per product, from every hour. There are no ready-made connectors, and we do not guarantee that every shop can be read.

4pricing.net is a price tracker for UK online retailers who want to know how they are priced against their competition. You decide which shops you follow — you add each one by product URL, for example Amazon UK, Argos, Currys, John Lewis, AO.com or eBay UK — and how often each product is checked, from every hour. You get an alert at the first check that catches a competitor changing a price, plus a recommended price calculated by the algorithm — sharp enough to win the sale, without giving away your margin.
We are upfront — here is where 4pricing.net is not yet the right fit:
Add the links to the product pages — yours and your competitors' — one by one.
The system checks prices at the interval you set for each product, from every hour, and sends an alert at the first check that catches a change.
Review the recommended price and the competitor history, then decide: approve the proposed price or apply it yourself, by hand.
Automated monitoring with 4pricing compared with the ways competitor prices usually get checked by hand.
